Cobie Smulders to play S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Maria Hill in THE AVENGERS?!?

Hey folks, Harry here...

The following picture was the closest looking outfit to a S.H.I.E.L.D. costume that I think I've seen that Cobie Smulders has worn.   I told ya I thought the Female Sidekick role that Sam Jackson was yapping to Jimmy Fallon about was most likely just a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.  But not only is she a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, but a legitimate hardass, at least in the comic Mavel Universe...   That's MARIA HILL.   

That being said, I'm not entirely sure if Maria Hill is "sidekick" material - she's more of a political nightmare.   But we'll see how Joss Whedon uses the character along with the lovely Cobie Smulders... that's if she comes down with the part.   Right now, Mike Fleming has tagged her as the front runner for the part.   And says the deal could be done by the end of your Super Bowl hangover.

Well, he didn't put it that way, but I did.   All I know is, I really and truly can not believe we're gonna get an AVENGERS movie.   It just sounds like crazy awesomery that defies childhood dreaming.  There's a part of me that also wants IRON MAN to be in that Silver and Red armor in it.   Just cuz...  man, I loved that particular armor.   But I'm probably the only one.   Here's Cobie...
