Who she almost played: Winstead has long been on Marvel’s radar, being linked to multiple roles, including Maria Hill and Sharon Carter.

Who she could still play: Though not a flagship character, the Inhuman royal Crystal is still a very big player in the ruling family and is exactly the type of secondary role Winstead has been up for.

Though she’s shown some true talent in films like Smashed and Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, Winstead has never really blown up. All the more reason for marvel to snatch her up and position her as one of Marvel’s more important female characters going forward.
