As long as the Executioner looks bad ass, and carries a huge axe I'll be happy, he doesn't even have to talk

meh

Hela would be cooler.

I hope so cause then Marvel will bring the Executioner back in the comics.

really the only requirement for the actress is to have big tits. Being Blond isn't even a requirement, ask any actress cast in a Marvel movie thus far.

Bringing the Enchantress in does make sense, if they eventually want to do a Masters of Evil, since she was one of the founding members..

I'd be fine with a giant wrestler type as the Executioner if they used him. Unlike Sabretooth, who always had a personality and loved to shit talk Logan and whatnot, the Executioner doesn't really need to talk hardly at all and doesn't really need any depth beyond intensity, anger, and devotion to the Enchantress. So as long as he looks like a big scary guy with a giant axe and looks like he could kick the shit out of the heroes, that's really all you need.

As for the Enchantress, it just needs to be someone that is attractive and can actually act. There's a lot of women that fit that part, and based on the past Marvel movies I have faith they will do a good job casting the part.

As much as I love a woman with great curves, I would rather that the actress they choose be able to actually act than for her to have large breasts. So I disagree that it is the only requirement. Natalie Portman, Hayley Atwell, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Scarlet Johansson all did a great job in their roles and they all had different body types.

when it comes to real life casting, comic book fans are the worst

Marvel's been pretty good about casting based on talent instead of "tits and ass." I do think Sarah from Chuck would make a good Enchantress, though i've ALWAYS pictured her as Carol Danvers...

Wow, that's a good call! Personally, I always thought Yvonne Strahovski would make a great Sharon Carter although that might be a little too close to the role she played on Chuck.

well here's your plot for the movie:

In her first appearance, she is sent by Odin to eliminate Thor's human love interest, whom Odin sees as a distraction. She also hopes to have the thunder god for herself. She is assisted by a powerful minion — Skurge, the Executioner. The Executioner loved the Enchantress, and she strings him along with her feminine wiles, using him as her muscle. She aids Loki by attempting to seduce Thor in his Don Blake identity and by sending the Executioner to kill Jane Foster, but though the Executioner traps Foster in another dimension Thor is able to bring her back by offering Skurge his hammer. When the Enchantress, angry, begins to turn Skurge into a tree, Skurge releases Thor from the pact in exchange for his help. Amora then tries to change Thor's hammer into a hissing serpent, but it is immune to her magic.[1]
