Peter Dinklage circling “Infinity War”
Are Tyrion Lannister and Tony Stark about to cross paths? Variety reports that “Game of Thrones” star Peter Dinklage is in early talks for a key role in Marvel's “Avengers: Infinity War”.
Production on the seventh season of “Game of Thrones” recently wrapped. Since the schedule for the show has moved from a summer shoot to a fall shoot, Dinklage's schedule allowed him to board the latest “Avengers” pic which is expected to shoot sometime in early summer.
The plan is shoot the next two “Avengers” films (“Infinity War” and a yet untitled sequel) back-to-back. Sources indicate Dinklage is expected to appear in both.
Plot details are vague, other than the superhero team returning to face the Marvel mega-villain Thanos (voiced by Josh Brolin). Dinklage's role is also unknown as of yet.
After directing the last two installments in the “Captain America” franchise, Anthony and Joe Russo now take over the reigns of directing the “Avengers” franchise, with the previous two films pics directed by Joss Whedon. “Avengers: Infinity War” has a release date of May 4, 2018.
