May 23rd
Whoa! Pretty sure our minds just got blown!
Emma Roberts may have joined the cast of American Horror Story to be closer to boyfriend Evan Peters, but it seems like he is already moving on to bigger projects!
The young star is the most recent addition to the cast of X-Men: Days Of Future Past! Director Bryan Singer tweeted:
Before he was an #Avenger, he was just a REALLY fast kid. Thrilled to say #EvanPeters is joining #XMen #DaysOfFuturePast as #Quicksilver.

Hold on a sec! Joss Whedon already confirmed Quicksilver and his sis Scarlet Witch would be appearing in Avengers 2!
How can they be in both when Disney owns The Avengers and Fox owns the rights to the X-Men? Are we about to see massive crossovers?!
OMG, will Evan reprise his role in Avengers 2? Will Emma join him as Scarlet Witch? This could be just the beginning!

Avengers 2 Gets 2 New Avengers! Quicksilver & Scarlet Witch CONFIRMED!
May 17th
Joss Whedon — mastermind of television and film — has revealed that two popular Marvel characters, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, WILL be featured in the Avengers sequel!
The superhero brother-sister duo originally appeared in the 1960s X Men comics, and have been prominent figures in Avengers storylines over the years.
Joss said of the duo:
“You know, they had a rough beginning. They’re interesting to me because they sort of represent the part of the world that wouldn’t necessarily agree with The Avengers. So they’re not there to make things easier. I’m not putting any characters in the movie that will make things easier.”
Well this is welcome news after hearing that Hawkeye might get recast OR even left out of the sequel!
Ooooo, ok, so NOW the question is WHO should play this sibling team?!
What do U think, perezscious readers??

Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye RECAST In Avengers Sequel Because He Pissed Off Marvel Execs?!
May 17th
Awww, snap!
Jeremy Renner made us SWOON as Hawkeye (yes, even as evil hypnotized Hawkeye) in Joss Whedon‘s Avengers movie, and we had heard that he’d be making a cameo in Captain America: Winter Soldier…
But it seems Renner may NOT be appearing in any future Marvel projects in ANY capacity, as rumor has it Hawkeye is being RECAST!!
But why??
Well, during an interview while promoting the first Avengers flick Jeremy stated:
“For 90 percent of the movie, I’m not the character I signed on to play. It’s kind of a vacancy. [He's] not even a bad guy, because there’s not really a consciousness to him. To take away who that character is and just have him be this robot, essentially, and have him be this minion for evil that Loki uses … I was limited, you know what I mean? I was a terminator in a way. Fun stunts. But is there any sort of emotional content or thought process? No.”
Ok, sounds pretty accurate to us… he barely even has dialogue in the movie and has little screen time compared to the other Avengers so obviously it wasn’t a very fulfilling acting experience, LOLz!
Unfortunately for Jeremy, some seem to believe it is the aforementioned candid comments that PISSED OFF Marvel execs to such an extent that they now want to BOOT Renner from the $ $ $ -making franchise.
Ouch!
Now, this is merely hearsay, so we’re keeping our Hawkeyes and ears peeled for any further information… we don’t wanna see Jeremy go!
Ch-ch-check out some snaps of JRenns as Hawkeye (below)!
The Avengers Actors Are Demanding Hulk-Sized Pay Days! Is The Superhero Sequel In Danger?
May 8th
The next time New Yorkers find themselves on the brink of an alien invasion, they may just have to fend for themselves because apparently production for The Avengers 2 is at a serious standstill!
Marvel is in full on panic mode as they scramble to reunite the all star cast, but some of the actors are no longer on contract and aren’t looking to sign on unless they see some more cash!
Robert Downey Jr. recently wrapped up his contract and he’s hinted at an early retirement for Tony Stark. Considering Iron Man 3 has given him one of the biggest paydays of his career, Marvel is going to have to cough up some serious dough if they want him to come back!
There was also a bit of drama when it came to getting Chris Hemsworth to return for Thor: Dark World as the actor wasn’t too happy with his small raise following the success of The Avengers.
It’s a little more up in the air when it comes to the rest of the cast. Sources say that Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson may already be signed on after they inked extensions for Captain America: The Winter Soldier so there’s at least some good news.
Mark Ruffalo, on the other hand, did an amazing just playing Bruce Banner, but we’ve already seen 3 different actors play the Hulk, so who’s to say he can’t be replaced again!
Marvel has already slated The Avengers 2 for an early 2015 release, however they might want to focus more on getting all of their actors on board before they plan their grand opening!
Get it done, guys!
