Tigra of the Avengers Initative

Angelina Jolie is Tigra

I've got a few weeks off and I'm spending some of that time doing this new series. Similar to my previous Green Lantern corps series... but this time more realistic I guess you could say.

This series is based on the idea of who could have been cast and what characters we might have seen in an alternate universe Avengers movie or what I suppose could happen in a future Avengers movie.

Possible Tigra backstory?
Greer Grant was a globetrotting reporter who came across a legend about ancient cat like creatures. She didn't believe the legend, but investigated it nonetheless. During her investigation she came across a strange artifact that transformed her into one of these ancient creatures. The artifact turned out to be a kind of time capsule containing all that remained of the cat people.

What kind of story would Tigra bring to an Avengers movie?
Tigra would more or less be a secondary character. During the film she would find out more about the Cat people and their origins through Thor's knowledge.

Why Angelina Jolie as Tigra?
Well I thought about going with a few different actresses, but went with Jolie. I'm admittedly not a huge Jolie fan and I'm sure she would never play a role that is secondary, but I think she had the look of Tigra and she can play an action hero. If she would bulk up a little...
