While there are strong candidates for the main lead roles, now the casting director is starting to take in consideration the supporting characters, not too much information has been leaked across the internet about the location but since, it’s being rumored that Louisiana state has been giving great taxes incentives for filming companies to shoot in their locations.

According to Christopher Nolan who has been working on the next release of Batman 3, it looks like, the green lantern movie would be filmed there too, giving all the actor folks from Louisiana a great opportunity to be on one of the most acclaimed comic movies. There is been a growing fan base regarding this movie, the attempts to make it a live action movie was always limited by the technology the film companies possessed, however in the last years this has dramatically changed and we can see CGI’s scenes on almost every sci-fi movie because the budget for these type of effects is in the range of investment.

Below are the casting information posted at some point :

CAROL FERRIS , 26-32, a smart and attractive woman with an MBA. She started as a pilot and now runs Ferris Aircraft. She is a work-a-holic…FEMALE LEAD

Dr. Hector Hammond, 27-35, Character actor who is austere and impersonal, he is real “scummy.” He is a pathologist and also the son of a Senator.

Sinestro, Mid-30s to Mid-40s, he is smart, tough, intimidating and in great physical shape.

Abin Sur, Mid-30s to mid-40s, he is a great warrior.

Then we’ll see the full casting members for the lead roles.

The latest film in development from Marvel’s Studios is Avengers: The Movie , this epic film is the logical consequence of the multiple solo hero films that Marvel has been releasing in the past years, now finally at the last ComicCon 2010 we’ve seen the main casting crew that will make this great movie into a reality, not only the comic fans will be pleased to see their long awaited heroes in the same screen, but a growing fan base has been formed from the latest movies.

We will list the great team that is working together to get this film ready for 2012, the director Joss Whedon is the mastermind that have gathered all this raw talent for one movie, while not all the main heroes are big hollywood star, that will make space for not getting the feeling that the screen is not too bloated , or like my aunt said, not having too many suns in one sky.

So here it goes the list of the main casting:

Jeremy Renner, who played the main character from the award winning Hurt Locker, he will be playing as Hawkeye.

The renowned Robert Downey Jr. will reprising the role as Iron Man, for the third time, we rest assured that he will a key character in the plot of the movie.

Scarlett Johansson will play the role of  Black Widow, while it’s not my favorite for this role, I think she can deliver a good performance in the stage.

We knew Chris Evans as the Human Torch, and I hope he makes the Captain America a respected character , because he deserves it.

The all timer fan of comics and a guy that has been a significant force in the making of comic films, we’re talking from Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.

Chris Hemsworth will be the lead character  in  the Thor Movie the next year, and as I saw a good but brief performance in the last Star Trek Movie , this time he will have the opportunity to show us the scandinavian personality of Thor.

While, Edward Norton never reached an agreement with Marvel Studios, the replacement wil be Mark Ruffalo, who is not a big star, however I think he will do great as a supporting character.

The most expected auditions for the fourth installment of this saga, starts after the successful premiere of Eclipse, which has beaten the previous twilight movie in audience and money collection. Now for the upcoming movie, we have the casting that will take place in Los Angeles, by June 24th.

As it was rumored, the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn will be split in two films, following the same pattern that the Harry Potter  and the Deathly Hallows film is doing. This way it will draw more audience and possibly increase the revenue of both films with just one budget because the movie is filmed once for both parts.

The release dates have been given and for Breaking Dawn I, it’s expected to be premiered in the big screen by November 18, 2011, then the next year, by summer of 2012 the second part is going to be released.

Director Bill Condon will have to use a couple of filming methods between the Avatar technique or the post production technique which applies 3d effects.

As the calendar goes to 2011, a couple of movies are coming and everything is prepared to 2012, I’m not talking about the Mayan Prophecies, but the Marvel’s one. And this is because we’re going to see Captain America’s first avenger movie which after so many years we hope that this film will fill the shoes that the 90s movie left.

The negotiations started in 1997, but it took the bold move that Marvel did some years ago to start promoting their heroes as franchise, everything has been orchestrated like a Beethoven’s  symphony and I think the rewards are coming with every blockbuster hit that marvel is producing.

Now, with the help of Disney as the new owner of marvel we will see a great expansion of these franchises in audience terms , it’s left to see if the transition from comics to a movie is well executed by the director, Joe Johnston.

Talking about the casting that has been selecting until now, we are glad to see that actor Stanley Tucci will be playing the role of Dr. Abraham Erskine. This was said by an official announcement at marvel and is accompanying Chris Evans as Captain America. We also have Hugo Weaving to play Red Skull.

All main characters has been chosen, but there is a lot of opportunities in this film as we are aware that some parts of the movie will take place in London and  Captain America Auditions  for Extras will consider all UK actors, be prepared to send your resume to Guys and Dolls casting , which is located in Trafalgar House, Grenwille place, London.

The main requisites to have in consideration for this first avenger film audition is to have UK nationality and also a national insurance number. In case you plan to assist to the captain’s america auditions you can send your resume with photos over email, remember that the images in total shouldn’t weight more than 2 Mb, the email to use is russell@guysanddollcastings.com, remember to sent it before June 28 which is the date where the film will start rolling in USA first, it’s said that the stage used will be located at Manhattan Beach , California.

The plot about this movie is based on the origins of captain america, a bit similar than Wolverine, but with the exception that he’s not a mutant, and due to the rejection for serving as a militar, Steve Rogers managed to enter into the military institution by volunteering in a top secret project, an event that will change his life forever and probably all around him. This film is been long awaited and I’m pretty confident that if you make it as an extra, you will have a great opportunity to other auditions, good luck in this Disney’s marvel Studios auditions.

As part of the marketing campaign that is being managed by Marvel and Disney, we have seen the new logo that has hit the internet and make a big buzz, it looks great and we have to put our reminders on for this great film.

Disney Marvel Thor Auditions

Everyone knows about the last acquisition of Disney, the beloved Marvel, there was a lot of polemic about this issue in its time. However, now the things look brighter with the upcoming movie “Thor”, the mighty Asgardian God will definitely blind us with the lightning that his powerful hammer produces.

And  by now the sequence keeps going and heat is being felt by the zealots of Marvel, everyone would dream about taking part of this movie as an actor, an actress or heck even as a cleaning guy, this film has been waited for so much time that deserves the best breed of main characters and also great secondary roles, everyone have been seen this new concepts about the Thor sutis and it looks splendid.

I think everyone is pretty much set on the main characters’ casting , we know that the film is going to be shoot at Raleigh Manhattan Beach Studios, and then it will be moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico to .

There will be an open casting call for Extras in New Mexico so if you happen to live near and you are over 18, give it a shot.
