I believe Wasp is an Asian-American, at least in Ultimate Universe….. But anyway, anything in this early stages of development, it still anybody game.
BTW, for me, she as Wasp isn’t a bad choice either, who knows, maybe she can hit that role perfectly.

For most part Marvel does a horrible job of picking characters I think. Well until recently (last 7 years) most hero roles were always miscast, cheezy movies with zero imagination. Both Marvel and DC have both stepped up there games on scripts and budget, but they really need to consider as everyone here laments…. The right actor for the role, instead of star power or who is hot.

There isn’t a single character I think Longoria would be right for, but thats just my opinion.

In response to P-MAN:

Emil Blonsky is a russian too… that didn’t stop MARVEL from casting Tim Roth to play the role. I personally would have cast Oleg Taktarov (the ex-UFC MMA fighter that has crossed over into acting) for the role. I think he would have been perfect for it. Yes, (I’m openning up to get my ass pounced all over here) better than Tim Roth… not that Tim Roth was bad, he was very good actually. I just think that Oleg would have been better.

My point is that MARVEL has a track record for not taking into consideration the perfect person for a role… (ie. Daredevil, King Pin, Venom, Storm, Rogue, Juggernaut, any of the Fantastic Four characters, Dr. Doom, even Frank Castle has never been cast as an Italian American… this list goes on for eternity). So don’t think that the company wouldn’t do something like casting her as Black Widow. That just is giving the company far too much credit.

I didn’t know that Beckinsale decided to stop doing action movies. That’s what made her famous! I can understand wanting to branch out but she’s already done that! She would be sweet as Black Widow.

Anyway, I don’t care for Eva Longoria, she’s a horrible actress and she’s like 5′ nothing. I don’t t think she would work as a superhero. I would prefer that they cast someone who could really own the role.

@ BAMKAZAAM,
Beckinsale in interviews has expressed that she will no longer do Female Action Hero roles. She even turned down Underworld 3 which really put her on the map! After she declared that statement, I really took a disliking for Kate, just turning her back on her fans like that! No point in throwing her name out there when she would refuse it anyhow! Just in case you dont know Rhona Mitra will be starring in Underworld 3.

Actually, I would like to see Rhona Mitra as the Black Widow. She is a little more curvy than Beckinsale anyhow and she could also fake the accent. Rhona was the very first Tomb Raider girl you know? She has really done it all.

She’s ok, I have no problems with her taking on any female super-hero role. And hey, she just might be a fan of comics or doing a favour for a friend. We really have no idea yet why she would be at Marvel, I wouldn’t count chickens until they are actually hatched… so to speak…
