Anatomy of a Rumor
Eva Longoria Whets Fanboys' Appetites
This is how a rumor starts. A star visits a studio and is spotted leaving, carrying something that might be indicative of something new. In this case, someone spotted Eva Longoria visiting the offices of Marvel Studios and was seen walking out with a stack of comics. Suddenly, the spies at Film School Rejects has concluded she had a preliminary meeting to discuss her participation as Janet Van Dyne, a.k.a. the Wasp, in the planned 2011 Avengers film.
Could they be right? Sure. Could she have been paying a social call about any number of things? More than likely.
Is this newsworthy? You decide.
Of course, it does give us an excuse to run a picture of her in a wasp-like outfit.

The thought of Eva Longoria in any movie? Ugh. I've seen The Sentinel and I don't need another one.

She's already got the short thing down. No special fx needed. Just a haircut and bug wings.
