I feel that this whole drama should have a name, maybe the casting wars. We know that both Joss Whedon and Bryan Singer will be using Pietro Maximoff aka Quicksilver in their respective superhero sequels. Fox will get to show him off first and they have cast Kick-Ass actor Evan Peters in the role, which many are saying amounts to one action sequence in X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Meanwhile Quicksilver has yet to be cast in The Avengers 2 (rumors say Aaron Johnson, also of Kick-Ass), but it was Whedon who mentioned him first by hinting a brother and sister pair. The Avengers director has also gone on record as saying that the both Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch will have a huge role in his film. Oh yeah he’s also legally restricted from using the word mutant.
Let the games begin!
Well the above pic above tweeted by Singer, is the first actual photo tease of Quicksilver, or I should say his house. The fact that it’s a house makes me wonder if we’ll be seeing Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch as well?
