Possible Mr. Peter Quill

Talk about trying to pull an Ashton and slip another piece of major news under the holiday radar. 

Marvel Studios reportedly has 21 star Jim Sturgess, as well as – possibly – Zachary Levi, at the top of its list to play Peter Quill, a.k.a. Star-Lord, in Guardians of the Galaxy.

The character, a charming troublemaker who serves as an interplanetary cop determined to protect the solar system from an evil alien race, is the son of a human lady and an alien gentleman.

Levi has a supporting role in the forthcoming Thor sequel, though (he replaced Josh Dallas, who could not get away from TVs Once Upon a Time, as Fandral). So that would be odd, no?

I like the idea of seeing Sturgess in a big blockbuster-type movie. They probably would buff him up good for it.
