Movie News Droppings – Captain America, Speedy Gonzalez, Bulletface

[adrotate banner=”1″]Captain America is casting Captain America. And since Marvel wants to pay the star only $300,000 and have them signed up for nine options for future films (sequels, Avenger films, crossover flicks…) some of the big names like Chris Pine are out. But who is in?

Chace Crawford (CW’s Gossip Girl)
John Krasinski (NBC’s The Office)
Scott Porter (NBC’s Friday Night Lights)
Mike Vogel (Cloverfield)
Michael Cassidy (CW’s Privileged)
Patrick Flueger (Brothers)
They also want Garrett Hedlund (Tron Legacy), but he hasn’t tested yet.

John Krasinski? Jim from the Office? Actually, that would probably be awesome, so we support Jim as Captain America!

Speedy Gonzalez will be a movie and George Lopez will be Speedy! Live action/CGI Speedy with non-racism, according to the producers. George Lopez is awesome, but the writers being the dudes from Garfield (Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen) and the plot about Speedy being a misunderstood boy who comes from a family that works in a very meticulous setting, and he’s a little too fast for what they do. He makes a mess of that. So he has to go out in the world to find what he’s good at.”

That path becomes clearer once Speedy befriends a gun-shy race-car driver.

Okay. Whatever.
