Who could play Scarlet Witch?

Rachel Weisz has always been my choice for Wanda, but Eva Green and Marion Cotillard are both excellent choices as well.

Except Marvel does have the rights for Strange, so they'd use him and the can't use her anyway.

Besides, if it's a Magic movie it should have Mystical villains.

The rights issue basically means that Wanda will never get used in any movie, because neither studio will ever have full access to all of her elements. Given the choice though, I'd definitely prefer her to be in an Avengers sequel than a First Class sequel, the X-Men films mostly suck and they still have Polaris if they want to tell the Magneto as a shitty father story. Ideally I'd want her to get a solo film first, because obviously you wouldn't want the entire existing cast to just be wallpaper in the sequel. She's a better fit for that than Black Widow anyway, a BW film would probably be just like every shitty female action movie ever, Wanda at least would require a new spin on things.

I could definitely get behind all of these choices. Eva Green would definitely be my #1 choice.

Back under your bridge, troll!!! :( She is currently SANE, p.s

I can see how some people could think they may be a bit stuffy or 'old' for the part, but i'd prefer she be cast as someone considered elegant and with depth rather than some skank of the moment (Fox, Lohan, etc)

It's pretty much Sasha Grey's part to lose. Everybody else is playing for second.

Um, no. I have a feeling they'll be getting an actress instead.

Starred in a Steven Soderbergh film and the HBO show "Entourage?" Compared to ScarJo, Kirtsten and co., Sasha Grey is Meryl Streep.

ANY chance kristen stewart had is gone, she COULD have been cast.

Heh. Cast as what? Valkyrie? You don't mean that a young, single woman who might have played hide-the-salami with some dude other than her pretend boyfriend might have lost her the role of--what again? Chaos magicianette? Hyurk. Good one.

Hell yeah! She's full of emotion, talent and is respectable (Sarcastic)
