After Jessica Chastain passed on her role in Iron Man 3, the question on everyone’s lips was who will be her replacement? Today, we have our answer.
Variety is reporting that Rebecca Hall has taken the role of Maya Hansen, a scientist who works alongside Aldrich Killian, the character being played by Guy Pearce.
I think Hall is a great fit for the part, I love everything I have seen her in, especially The Town and The Prestige. Joining the next Marvel film should giver her career a boost that will be well deserved.
The film, which is being helmed by Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang director Shane Black, will begin production later this month.
Iron Man 3 stars Robert Downey Jr., Ben Kingsley, Gwyneth Paltrow, Rebecca Hall, Don Cheadle and Guy Pearce, and will be released on May 3, 2013.
