Are they for real? Aside from the look (which I disagree with), it's also a huge under-casting as far as name goes.
With Ed Norton and Robert Downey Jr. playing the Avengers so far, they've really been focusing on gettting great actors with reputations for being such.
They have gone "cool" with their heroes, casting actors with cult followings. The types that fall into the "favorite actor" category for young movie fans.
To cast a relative unknown seems a bit risky for a superhero movie in general, where the title character in effect carries the film and the franchise.
Never really seen something like this. Even the most low-key superheroes are usually casted with star-power in mind.
I'm not cricizing his competence as an actor, since that is yet to be seen. It just seems like a huge fuck-up from all other standpoints.
I was really hoping for Daniel Craig myself.
