DOMINIC COOPER AS HOWARD STARK IN CAPTAIN AMERICA

English actor Dominic Cooper has revealed that he will be playing a young Howard Stark in the upcoming Joe Johnston’s project The First Avenger: Captain America.

So, this means that Cooper will actually be the third Howard Stark in the Marvel movie universe. And this time, Captain America’s film is set in the 1940s.

So, let’s all remind some details about this project. Iron Man director Jon Favreau confirmed that Howard Stark will be in Captain America, saying:

“Yeah, because he was around then. Captain America takes place during World War II. Howard Stark was starting out during that time, and he was involved with the war effort, much like Howard Hughes.”

And, of course, we already know that John Slattery plays Tony Stark’s father – Howard Stark in Iron Man 2, but from this interview, it’s clear that this character will have bigger part in Captain America, where we’ll see how Stark Expo was founded.

What do you think? Who would have been your dream casting for this role?

With all this Talk of the upcoming Avengers movie and the possible plot line. Should we be asking who will be the villain(s) or what would make for the best film?

There are many speculations to who will be the villain in the first Avenger movie. It is a tug of war between those who believe and would like it to be The God of Mischief Loki(Step Brother to one of the team core heroes Thor) and The Hulk under his spell or influence. The Other speculated villains would be the Skrulls, an Alien Race of Shape Shifters that have lived for millions of years. The Skrulls came to be after cosmic beings known as the Celestials performed experiments on a reptilian species that inhabited the planet the Skrulls come from. the result split the species into three branches one of which being the Skrulls. These Alien invaders being the villains would take from the alternate universe of marvel The Ultimates story line, in which the Skrulls were known as the Chitari and funded many evils that have gone on in humanity over the years to conquer the planet from Within.

Lets have a run down of the films and the possibilities that each bring to the table. Both Plausible and Both would be quite entertaining.

Hm, interesting question. Undoubtedly, the villians are what make superhero movies more than a special effects extravaganza. Who would do the Avengers justice?
