I assume she signed the standard multi-film contract with Marvel.
I think Marvel is done with her. Avengers is having re-shootings and her role is going to be minuscule. When you go from the big screen to TV is not good. She is obviously an untalented person, toxic and totally forgettable. Not the first one in movie history.And she's got time to do a TV series as well?
Life Undercover: Coming of Age in the CIA,
I'm excited. I hope she can code.
