Marvel Movies, oh My

So...I touched on Iron Man 2 in my last post but totally forgot that Marvel is going to be pumping out at least 3 more movies in the next 2/3 years.

The first one is Thor. This is due out May 11th 2011. I tried digging up a trailer but sadly, there is none that I can fine for this for the next two movies I'm mentioning. I'd pretty pumped because this movie has Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, and Anthony Hopkins as Odin.

The movie is basically about Thor, an arrogant warrior, whose actions have him sent to Earth where he is forced to live among humans. When evil forces are sent to Earth, he realizes his true calling and what a real hero is.


Film number two is "The First Avenger: Captain America"

This movie is due out on July 22nd, 2011. I realize it's awhile away...but I'm still excited because we all know what that means...THE AVENGERS!

After being deemed unfit for military service, Steve Rogers volunteers for a top secret research project that turns him into Captain America, a superhero dedicated to defending America's ideals.

The person playing Captain America is Chris Evans. That's practically the only solidly known for sure actor in it. A lot of them are "pending" or rumoured.


The third movie, piggy-backing the last two, is "The Avengers"

This movie should indeed be amazing if done right. You have Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Chris Evans as Captain America, Edward Norton as the rumored Bruce Banner, and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. Brilliance in a word. It's due out on May 4th of 2012, but it's so far ahead that from what I can't find, the plot isn't quite released. Still...with a cast like that, how can you go wrong?

So needless to say, Marvel has lots of promoting all the way up to 2012...and who knows what is also in the works!
