Hayley Atwell has landed the role of Peggy Carter (Captain America’s love interest) in Marvel’s upcoming Captain America: The First Avenger.
For those of you unfamiliar with Hayley Atwel, (I know I was before I visited IMDB.com…) she’s appeared in movies like Brideshead Revisited, The Duchess, Mansfield Park and a few others I’ve never bothered watching.
I’ll now hand you over to the Marvel press release…
Marvel Studios announced today that Hayley Atwell has been cast to star as Peggy Carter in the studio’s highly anticipated movie CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER opposite Chris Evans. In the early comics, Peggy Carter fell in love with Captain America while they fought together in the war effort. The character will be updated for the feature adaptation. Joe Johnston will direct the film penned by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.
Isn’t it interesting that they’ve switched the title around for the movie; it used to go by the name The First Avenger: Captain America but now it’s been given the old switcheroo. Interesting…
