We're still three whole years away until Joss Whedon's sequel to The Avengers opens, which leaves plenty of time for wild speculation on who the new additions will be. Will Agent Coulson(Clark Gregg) come back as the android Vision? Maybe. What about Viggo Mortensen as Dr. Strange? The best part of superhero movies is coming up for the best fit for these high-powered roles, and it's that speculation which always proves to be a driving force behind a lot of the fan art we've seen.
Alex Heaton over at Deviant Art has created two new fan posters for The Avengers 2, with both featuring characters many suspect may be a part of the sequel. The first has the awesome Terry Crews as Luke Cage, and I don't think Marvel could find a better choice to play him. The only quibble I have with it is that he's wearing a S.H.I.E.L.D. bulletproof vest, which doesn't make sense because Luke Cage's power is that he has impenetrable steel-hard skin. I'm pretty sure he just used an old image from The Expendables and ran with it. But otherwise it's a cool image that hopefully gets Marvel thinking of going in this direction.
The second has the sexy Yvonne Strahovski(Chuck) as Carol "Ms. Marvel" Danvers. I'm almost certain we'll see Danvers in the film in some capacity, and you might recall that Strahovski was rumored to play the character in The Avengers. That turned out to not be the case, but I'm betting Whedon, who has an affinity for strong female characters, won't let that opportunity slip by a second time.
Alex has a ton of cool stuff over at his Deviant Art page, so check 'em out. The Avengers 2 is slated to open on May 1st 2015.
