EW caught up with Kristen Bell at the Couples Retreat LA premiere and couldn't resist asking about the Veronica Mars movie.

Bell told EW that despite Warner Bros’ reluctance to give the project a green light, “I have not lost faith. And the fact that people keep talking about it and making it a trending topic on Twitter helps keep the dream alive… I know Rob [Thomas] has ideas and I would love to get the chance to be Veronica Mars again. I am keeping my fingers crossed and am pushing as much as I can to get it done.”

Kristen Bell will star alongside Christina Aquilera in the movie Burlesque. Filming is due to start on November 9th with a release date of November 2010.

Aguilera plays a small-town girl who moves to Los Angeles and, thanks to her enormous singing talent, finds work at a "neo-burlesque" club.

Bell has been cast as the club's star, who gets a bit jealous when she sees that Aguilera's talents are outshining her own. Stanley Tucci will play the man who discovers Aguilera.

Singer Cher stars as the club owner. Twilight villain Cam Gigandet also stars.

Marvel.com: Word has it you're not only acquaintances with, but also a fan of, Ed Brubaker. How did the two of you meet and what do you like about his work?

Kristen Bell: I met Ed at Comic-Con a few years back. He came up and introduced himself and we both gushed about the other’s career for a few minutes, then he took out a copy of CAPTAIN AMERICA—with the famous picture of his open hand drawn on the cover. And he had written "Veronica Mars" on the palm, which is a reference to an old "Veronica Mars" episode where a dead guy shows up with Veronica’s name written on his hand. I was so flattered.

Marvel.com: Do you have any particular favorite Marvel characters?

Kristen Bell: I really like the Avengers—because I love the idea and dynamics of team crime fighting, as opposed to a solo super hero.

Marvel.com: What got you into comics?

Kristen Bell: I wasn’t into comics as a kid, and it wasn’t until "Veronica Mars" when I started hanging out with fanboys and then was exposed to the world of comics. I didn’t realize how keen the stories were or how many people await the continuation of the plots with each new comic. I think its kind of awesome, that the stories carry on and get passed onto different writers and the comic always continues. I wish some films were like that.

Marvel.com: Speaking of films, if you got your pick to play any Marvel
character, who would it be and why?

Kristen Bell: Wasp. Definitely Wasp. Because she’s tiny, but still powerful. *smiles*
