漫威系列的电影已经出了很多了，但是没有一部是以女性超级英雄角色所命名的。但是在漫威的第三阶段的《蚁人和黄蜂女》和《惊奇队长》这几部将要主导接下去几年漫威的主要英雄角色的电影中这个现象将要改变了。那么反派中也有这样的改变么?

　　当然，已经有不少女性的角色在漫威的剧集和电影中负责协助支持反派，但我们从来没有看到过任何一个反派的头头是女性的。这个现象在《雷神3：诸神黄昏》当中也即将改变。这部电影中我们仍可看到演员Chris Hemsworth以雷神的身份回归，并且与他地球上的牛逼盟友绿巨人(Mark Ruffalo饰演)一起进行了一次宇宙间的探险，并且从十一月份的报道就开始声明这个故事将会向大家介绍漫威的第一个主要女性大反派。

　　所以在12月份报道出奥斯卡获得者Cate Blanchett在与漫威影业协商出演《雷神3：诸神黄昏》中的主要角色的时候，我们都知道那意味着什么了。尽管Blanchett曾经开玩笑说过她会代替Hemsworth来出演雷神(毕竟在漫画里Thor已经演变成女雷神了)，但是根据相关人士Mark Ruffalo透露，我们一直以来所听说的女性反派就是Blanchett可能即将出演的那个。

　　Mark Ruffalo是这么说的：“我太激动了，我是在一次州长晚宴上见到她(Cate Blanchett)的，那时候我听说她正在考虑，而其他人正在向她介绍那个她将要扮演的角色，所以我就非常激动地跑向她了，而且心里还一直在祈祷，‘拜托拜托一定要谈妥啊!’她真的是最棒的演员之一了，并且一想到她将会饰演牛逼的反派我就激动的不行。”

　　如果Blanchett真的加入这部电影，那么这将会是另一个漫威启用老练，已经非常著名的演员来饰演主要角色的例子。同样今年秋季即将上映的《奇异博士》当中就会有好几个奥斯卡获得者出演，这也表明了漫威正在不断汲取极为优秀有才的演员来加入自己的行列当中。这也是为什么影帝Matthew McConaughey有兴趣出演《银河护卫队2》中的反派以及Blanchett可能会在几年后攻击雷神老家阿斯加德的原因了。漫威影业的生产总裁Kevin Feige现在已经完全接手了影业的管理，并且只需要向迪士尼的顶级高层汇报，也不向以前一样预算紧张了，这意味着他可以使各个有才华的演员更为满意，并且也增加了招贤纳才的几率。

　　从另一个商业的角度来看，《雷神3》是第一部在澳大利亚拍摄的漫威电影，所以采用澳大利亚的演员和工作团队也能使其在税务上有所优惠。Hemsworth就是从澳大利亚来的，并且现在就和家人住在离电影可能即将拍摄的乡村路演黄金海岸不到一小时车程远的地方。Blanchett的加盟也肯定对这个打算有利。

　　至于Blanchett会在雷神当中扮演什么女性反派，下面这些选项即是我们对她的猜测，而其中我们又觉得擅长巫术的魅惑魔女是最有可能的。这个角色的姐妹Lorelei曾经在漫威的电视剧集《神盾局特工》中出场过。不管这个角色是什么，一定会对诸神黄昏起到重要的作用，这个故事也会对漫威电影宇宙产生巨大的影响。

　　1.Knorda – 超级强大的阿斯加德战士，巨人之山的女王。

　　2.魅惑魔女 – 不要和DC自杀小队电影中的Cara Delevingne饰演的女巫搞混了，漫威中的魅惑魔女原名Amora是雷神最强大的具有魔法的反派之一。她的姐妹Lorelei曾在神盾局特工中出场过。

　　3.Hela – 雷神之弟邪神Loki的孩子，也被称为死亡女神。并不仅仅是Loki的女儿，也有可能帮漫威宇宙再次与超级大反派灭霸接上联系，灭霸将会爱上死亡，众死神之首。

　　4.Karnilla – 北欧最强女巫，是命运女神诺伦三姐妹中的女王，阿斯加德命运监督者。实际上，她还帮忙教导了魅惑魔女巫术，并且诺伦三姐妹在《复仇者2：奥创纪元》当中也扮演过至关重要的角色(虽然很多有她们的场景都被删了)，她们告诉了雷神如何打败奥创的信息并向雷神展示了阿斯加德的未来。

　　《美国队长：内战》将在2016年3月6日上映，《奇异博士》将在2016年11月4日上映，《银河护卫队2》将在2017年5月5日上映，《新蜘蛛侠》将在2017年7月28日上映，《雷神：诸神黄昏》将在2017年11月3日上映，《黑豹》将在2018年2月16日上映，《复仇者联盟：无限战争(上)》将在2018年3月4日上映，《蚁人和黄蜂女》将在2018年7月6日上映，《惊奇队长》将在2019年3月8日上映，《复仇者联盟：无限战争(下)》将在2019年5月3日上映，《异人族》将在2019年7月12日上映，还有两部尚未命名的电影在2020年5月1日和2020年11月6日上映。

　　A dozen films in for Marvel Studios and not one has featured a female title character. That’s about to change in Phase 3 with both Ant-Man and the Wasp and Captain Marvel looking to headline key Marvel Comics superheroines in the next few years… but what about the villains?

　　While female antagonists have played supporting roles on Marvel TV and on the film side, we’ve yet to see a lead villain be a female character. That’s going to change with Thor: Ragnarok. The third Thor film sees Chris Hemsworth return as the titular Asgardian God of Thunder, joined this time by his Earthly brute ally Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) for a cosmic buddy adventure, and a report from November indicated that it’s this story that’ll introduce Marvel’s first major female movie villain.

　　So in December when the trades broke the news that Aussie Oscar winning star Cate Blanchett was in talks with Marvel Studios to play a lead character in Thor: Ragnarok, we knew what that meant. Blanchett joked on Jimmy Kimmel Live around the time that she was going to takeover the lead role of Thor from Hemsworth (Thor is a female character in the comics now, after all) but according to Mark Ruffalo who spoke with ET yesterday at the BAFTA Awards Season Tea Party, the villain we previously heard about is one and the same as the character Blanchett may play.

　　“I’m so thrilled. I saw her at the Governors’ banquet here and heard that maybe she was circling, they were talking to her about the part, so I ran up to her and I was like, ‘Please, please, please make this work!’ She’s just one of the best, and to have her play a baddie is going to be really exciting.”

　　If Blanchett joins Thor, it would be another example of Marvel Studios using veteran, recognizable stars to fill supporting roles. Doctor Strange – which debuts this fall – has several Oscar caliber stars filling its ranks, emphasizing that Marvel is looking for top tier talent for its projects. That’s why Matthew McConaughey was of interest for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2’s villain role and it’s why Blanchett may be laying siege to Asgard in a few years. Marvel Studios president of production Kevin Feige, now fully in charge of the studio and reporting only to Disney’s top brass, doesn’t have the same tight budget constraints he had previously meaning he can keep talent happier and have more options in attracting stars.

　　From another business perspective, since Thor 3 is the first Marvel project shooting in Australia, tax incentives for having Aussie cast members and crew no doubt come into play. Hemsworth of course hails from Australia and currently lives with his family just an hour outside of Village Roadshow’s Gold Coast locations where production may take place. Having Blanchett join as well could further that cause.

　　As for what female Thor villain Blanchett may play, here are the options we theorized last year, of which we believe Enchantress is the most likely. The character’s sister, Lorelei, had a guest appearance on an episode of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC. Although whatever character it is could be an amalgamation of any of the following to better serve the story of Ragnarok which we know will have a major impact on the cosmic side of the MCU.

　　Knorda – super strong Asgardian warrior queen of the Mountain Giants.

　　Enchantress – not to be confused with Cara Delevingne’s Enchantress in DC’s Suicide Squad movie, Marvel’s Enchantress (real name: Amora) is one of Thor’s most dangerous and magical villains. Amora’s sister, Lorelei, actually appeared in an episode of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..

　　Hela – Loki’s child and the Asgardian goddess of Death. Could be altered to not be Loki’s daughter and could also serve as a connection to MCU big bad Thanos who’s in love with “Death”

　　Karnilla – The queen of the Norns, overseers of the destinies of Asgardians. Karnilla actually helped teach magic to Enchantress and the Norns played a crucial role in Avengers: Age of Ultron (albeit mostly in a deleted scene) to share with him information on how to defeat Ultron and what would happen next to Asgard.

　　Captain America: Civil War will release on May 6, 2016, followed by Doctor Strange – November 4, 2016; Guardians of the Galaxy 2 – May 5, 2017; Spider-Man – July 28, 2017; Thor: Ragnarok – November 3, 2017; Black Panther – February 16, 2018;The Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 – May 4, 2018; Ant-Man and the Wasp – July 6, 2018; Captain Marvel – March 8, 2019; The Avengers: Infinity War Part 2 – May 3, 2019; Inhumans – July 12, 2019; and as-yet untitled Marvel movies on May 1, July 10 and November 6, 2020.
