Anna Kendrick, Felicity Jones and Imogen Poots are reportedly at the top of Marvel Studios’ list of choices to play the female lead in the upcoming Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
The news comes over the weekend from the NY Post’s Page Six column so a pinch or two of salt are probably in order for this report.
Filming on the sequel is expected to start by year’s end in order to get the film into theaters by its April 2014 scheduled release date.
Interestingly, the report only describes the role as “the film’s female lead,” though it most likely the comics character Sharon Carter, niece of Peggy Carter, played by Hayley Atwell in the first film. So which of the three do you find could pass as a relative of Atwell?
