Marvel should cast her in a movie


Marvel should cast her to play one of their female superheroes. Quantico will likely be a hit, and ABC is already owned by Disney, so she could likely get flexibility with shooting schedules.

Exactly...She would be perfect as Captain Marvel

Marvel should stop making so many damn movies. I stopped going to them after the first Avengers and never looked back. They're stupid movies with dull characters and terrible screenplays. Shaky cam continues to get worse and CGI continues to dominate bad movie making.

I've been a fan of Priyanka for several years now. It's nice to see her finally get some success in America, she's been desperate for some time now. To sign on to a Marvel movie would typecast her in America forever and run her career.

t's nice to see her finally get some success in America, she's been desperate for some time nowHow has she been "desperate" for success in the US? Interscope was the one that recruited her to sing songs for them and then she was also recruited by ABC for a talent deal. She got lucky. If anyone was "desperate" to pretend she was a star in Hollywood, it was Aishwarya Rai.

To sign on to a Marvel movie would typecast her in America forever and run her career.You say that as if she's in a position to make huge choices. She'd be lucky to be cast in a Marvel movie.

She was a front runner to play Wonder Woman (DC) back in 2006 when Joss Wheddon was signed to make a WW movie..as we know, Joss is now heavily involved in the Marvel/Avengers franchise so he could cast her if she is willing...personally, I would not mind her as Ms Marvel, the ONE thing lacking thus far in EVERY MARVEL movie since 2000 (X-MEN) is that there was never a south Asian character at all..the closest was Dr Sarita in the much maligned X-men 3 played by an iranian actress lol..I would love her to appear as Ms Marvel in the next Avengers instalment though her age (33) means they won't be her first choice..

Yes, not as desperate as Aishwarya Rai. The whole Interscope seemed forced, probably by them not her. Teaming up with Pittbull, will.i.am and Thursday Night Football felt pushed on us. Then the Bonnie Raitt cover it just all felt like she wasn't doing it on her own and somebody else was trying to cash in on her beauty.

Also she would show up at strange events that she didn't have anything to do with, I'm just happy she finally landed somewhere solid.

I think she's bigger than Marvel, but I also hate Marvel. I just hope she doesn't take a Marvel gig and sell out just for a role. She could demand better roles with her looks, experience and diversity she is a film casters dream.

Well, that's way major record labels work, especially with someone like her who's not even a real singer. It was completely manufactured and embarrassing, which is why it flopped miserably.

As for the events, that's normal. She's signed to CAA and will be invited to their events like The Golden Globes party she was invited. It's important for them to attend because you need to network with other actors. She and her manager actually met Kerry Washinton and Keli Lee (the woman who signed her to a ABC talent deal) at a party.

I disagree. She is not bigger than Marvel.  She should be happy if she even gets an offer for a big budget Hollywood movie like that. I agree about not selling out though. I'd hate for her to play a white actor's "exotic" girlfriend with little no lines. How embarrassing.

No. Stop it right there.
