Quote:
Comic Book Movie's Bryan Kritz hears Hank and Janet may have already been cast. "A well trusted source close to Marvel Studios is saying that Nathan Fillion ('Serenity') will be playing Dr. Henry 'Hank' Pym. The actor is in final negotiations for a multi film deal that would start with 'The Avengers' in 2012. Eva Longoria ('Desperate Housewives') will play Janet Van Dyne as has long been speculated ever since leaving Marvel with a stack of Avengers resource material (that's comic books to you and me) in 2008. This would actually make her the second person cast for the movie, only behind that of Robert Downey Jr," he writes. He also notes it is unknown at this time if Hank and Janet will have superhero indentities or just appear as S.H.I.E.LD. agents. Of course, I'm always a little more skeptical of "well trusted sources" and "studio insiders." In the past, I've called them cover identities for Mysterio ... and really, why stop now?

Of course Whedon is gonna try to get some of his "crew" in there.
