In very recent interview with MTV, the actress revealed that she is currently in talks with Marvel for a possible superhero role. "Whatever it is, I want a fight scene. I could be an incredible villain. I could be a hero. I want a cool outfit, and I want to kick ass," Chastain says. She also made it clear that she didn't want to have to play the role of a "boring civilian." We've talked about aligning our forces in the future. And here's the thing with me . . . If you're going to be in a superhero movie, you only get one chance," the actress relates." You're that character forever. So why do a superhero movie and play the boring civilian?"
