Aint It Cool News reports that RR has talked with Angelina Jolie to play Ava in Sin City 2...just a rumor/report at this point, but interesting...

I'd been wondering about the casting of Eva, since it's a pivotal role in 'A Dame to Kill For', requires an actress to go through a lot of different emotions and be semi or fully naked pretty much the whole time (which Angelina has done in the past -anyone remember Gia?- but not since becoming a household name). She'd make a good Eva, I think, she's got the range, the looks and her name on the poster carries a lot more weight than Brittany Murphy's.
I don't know how they're going to do Dwight's (spoiler warning) surgical transformation. Two different actors? Prosthetics for before which get removed when he turns into Clive Owen? Write it out althogether?

Jolie is just about perfect for the role. Isn't she pregnant though? As for Dwight, I hope they stick with Clive owen and give him a new look rather than cast a new actor.

well, they won't be shooting for a while and she's showing quite a bit in terms of her pregnancy, so she must be somewhat far along...I would imagine if she wants to do it and they want to cast her, they just arrange the schedule of her scenes to fit in with the months following her delivery.

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what they do with casting Dwight...

Some fun tidbits from Newsarama's coverage of the big convention this past weekend: (I had heard the story of Rourke getting Marv's walk, but didn't hear the bit where Rourke explains what inspired the walk)

>> Asked for any specific memories of working with the actors, Miller said that one day during film, Mickey Rourke came up to him, excitedly, and told him he had just figured out how Marv walked, and if Miller would like to see it. Miller said yes, and Rourke walked away from him 15 feet, and then back, in perfect Marc rhythm and cadence.

“I was flabbergasted,” Miller said. “I looked at him, and said, ‘Where were you ten years ago when I was drawing this?’”

Rourke said that he’d learned the walk from Irish terrorists who he’d come to know in his travels.

And finally, on the question of Sin City 2, Miller said that he’s currently finishing the script, and both he and Rodriguez are hoping to start shooting in either May or June. As for what the story for the sequel will be, the weekend’s convention buzz and reports have 'A Dame to Kill For' as a lock, and most likely a new story with Nancy Callahan, set after 'That Yellow Bastard.'

Great Caesar's Ghost, Mickey Rourke continues to be a badass beyond par. I venture to say that he could kick even Chuck Norris' ass.

Rumours abound that Rouke has developed a defence against the patented Norris roundhouse kick.

But they are just that, rumours.

everyone knows the only way to beat Norris is through the intelligent usage of magnets. Without his beard, he is nothing.

I think with all the new blood around we would do well to try and remain vaguely on topic. To set an example, like.

Okay, okay, back on topic then. Given the *ahem* less then positive reaction to Miller's recent comic work, what are people's opinions of him writing new material for the sequel? Will he redeem himself in cinema, or will his suckiness continue to spread?

It seems Jolie as Ava is pretty solid...from comics 2 film:

>> Rosario Dawson told Sci Fi Wire that director Robert Rodriguez wants Angelina Jolie to star in "Sin City 2" and is delaying production to accommodate Jolie's current pregnancy. "The film's been kind of postponed because Robert has been interested in Angelina Jolie for the lead," Dawson said. "But she's very pregnant right now. So that's putting an understandable hold on the film." Dawson also talks about how her role develops in the sequel.
