Marvel movies: Sarah and Eliza

[harmindervamp]

Hello everybody. I know there is a thread about Joss whedon directing the Avengers movie and now MAYBE rewrighting the script for the Captain America movie.
This is no joke but a couple of years ago I used to daydream about Sarah Michelle Gellar and Eliza Dushku having roles in the Marvel universe. I used to think what if Sarah Michelle Gellar played The Wasp? and what if Eliza Dushku played Scarlet Witch?
I think it would be cool.
And then when i heard about joss being in negotiations to direct the avengers movie I was quite shocked. And now i'm hearing that he might be rewriting the script for a Captain America movie which'll star Chris Evans. So I thought to myself, well it's going the direction I kinda wanted, so why not Sarah and Eliza? After all these actresses deserve some credit for next couple of years.
What do you lot think of this, can't Joss give them roles or is it just up to other people? However I only want to hear your thoughts about Eliza and Sarah, not anything to do with other Whedonverse actresses please, thank you.

I am a fan of both Sarah and Eliza, and I think DH season 2 proved that Eliza has the acting chops that some doubted that she had.

Joss probably will have some influence in the additional casting, but I think it will be much less and he does with his own projects. I also believe that Joss has to be careful with this one. One thing the naysayers have been commenting on is Joss' tendency to cast his pals for everything. It would be nice to see a few whedonverse favorite in the movie, but I think it may be a bad move to put his favorite girl Eliza (or Sarah or that matter) in this one. This is a unique opportunity for Joss to prove that he can play with the big boys, and I don't want to see it marred by accusations of casting his friends if they are not the best for the role.

There's really no character in th Marvel universe at this time I would want to see Eliza portray but I'd like to see her in the 3rd Nolan Batman film playing Catwoman.

Sarah I wouldn't mind seeing in the rumored Fantastic 4 reboot playing the Invisible Woman Sue Storm.

Eliza Dushku for Black Widow.
