"Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage is reportedly in talks to star in the next two "Avengers" movies.
Variety reported that Dinklage is being eyed to play a key role in "Avengers: Infinity War" as well as the succeeding "Avengers" film. Dinklage has completed filming "Game of Thrones" Season 7, which means the actor has an open schedule to film the next "Avengers" movie, production of which is expected to begin in February in Scotland.
The report further suggests that Marvel is planning to film two "Avengers" movies back-to-back and that Dinklage's character will appear in both. As of this writing, Marvel has yet to comment on the reports.
Dinklage is one of the few new cast members reportedly circling the massive superhero film. Previous stars as well as actors and actress from other franchises are confirmed to appear in "Infinity War."
Although Dinklage's role remains a big secret at this moment, having him on board "Avengers: Infinity War" is a rather interesting choice, considering he previously played Bolivar Trask in "X-Men: Days of Future Past." Fans of both the "Avengers" and "X-Men" franchises know that there is a big of a controversy surrounding these two because while "Avengers" is housed under Disney, Fox holds the rights to "X-Men."
Meanwhile, "Avengers: Infinity War" is confirmed to begin filming in Edinburgh and Glasgow Scotland starting February, The Telegraph reported. The filming is expected to last for sixth months.
There's a lot of excitement in Scotland as filming for "Avengers: Infinity War" begins soon. Having the superhero movie film in Scotland is expected to boost the country's economy by £10 million.
"Avengers" alum Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner and Samuel L. Jackson are confirmed to reprise their roles. Benedict Cumberbatch is also joining the fight as Doctor Strange. Liv Tyler was also reported to take part in the cast, and it is presumed that she will reprise her role as Betty Ross, love interest of The Hulk.
"Avengers: Infinity War" has a tentative release date of May 4, 2018.
