I'm probably gonna get shot for this...but I'd love to see Russel Crow as Batman/Bruce Wayne in a Dark Knight Returns movie.

If not him...then Viggo Mortenson.

They are way to young, i realize Eastwood is a bit too old. But some facial expressions do look very simulair.

I'm changing my Two Face casting into Don Johnson!

Interesting choices people! The only thing is that if this was ever to be made, it would probablly be quite a few years from now, making a lot of the actors much too old. It's fun speculating on, though!

There's only one guy who has the:

1:age

2:bulk <--this is Miller's Batman - no rubber armor - BLUE and GRAY tights w/ kevlar plate

3:Bruce Wayne's moustache - seriously though, the guy who has the look for both Bruce and Batman is...

Tom Selleck. If you've only seen him on Magnum P.I. and Friends then you haven't really seen what he's capable of. He was very good in Ike: Countdown to D-day. He's got the look, height, build, and the acting chops.

Oh and a skinny Tim Curry for the Joker.

Judge Rico
03-02-2005, 04:35 PM
There are no actors out there who are 60+ and have the build that Batman has in DKR. I think Eastwood would have been good a few years back, maybe not now.

I couldn't see Tom Selleck though but I like the idea of Walken for the Joker.

But who would be your director? Writer?

Hey guys, director and writer is even more important than the cast!

Batman/Bruce Wayne- Russel Crowe
Alfred- John Cleese
Jim Gordon- Dennis Quaid
Harvey Dent/TwoFace- Ray Liotta (definitly when he was younger, and still)
The Joker- Jack Nicholson (loved his Joker, and maybe could change style a lil)
Tony Zucco- Al Pacino


I dunno, these would be my picks for that movie lol. I was just fooling around as most of these guys, even though great are not my current choices for the roles in future Batman movies. Just things i would had liked to see

Eastwood's about 25 years too old for DKR Bats.

spdrknight
03-03-2005, 12:55 AM
Even though Clint Eastwood is alittle too old to play Batman in DKR, I would want him. Eastwood could play and old Batman perfectly... he has the look and the attitude, and you got to admitt, Eastwood has those piercing eyes... that is Batman from DKR.

William Hurt would be my choice for Gordon, all though.. he isn't old enough but I can see him as a hardened Gordon.

Joker, I say bring back Nicholson.

Two-Face... i don't know actually.

Superman... i don't know who could pull off an old Supes. Let me think and I'll post again later.

A little too old? Do you really think Eastwood would be believeable as someone in his mid-fifties?

spdrknight
03-03-2005, 01:44 AM
He is old, but when I see him on the screen he doesn't seem as old as he really is. And my point was that he is too old for the role but I like the idea of Eastwood.

Batman: Tom celic might not be that bad but he always stuck me as too much of a nice guy, maybe an older Russel Crowe, I always liked Keaton but he's just not big enough.

Joker: Has anyone thought of Mark Hamil? The guy only has the best Joker-voice around, and with makeup they could probably make him look pretty good, but if not him then definatley Nicholson he was great.

Superman: mel gibson just get him to bulk up a bit.

Two face: Bruce willis

Gordon: Clint Eastwood-he woulda been a good Batman but he's just too old.

Robin: I really don't kno she really wasn't given that much character depth in the book, it wouldn't be terribly hard to play her.

Flass, I like your idea for Daniel Day Lewis to play Sups. He diffinitly looks the part of an older hardened Superman but still young, Sups doesn't relly age as fast as humans.

But isn't Cartellini a little old to playing a teenage Robin? Robin is quite young in DKR.

Then Alfred should be in his 80's or 90's....and The Joker should be in his mid 60's.

Cartellini still looks young, and she looks perfect for the role.

Mel Gibson is way too old for DKR Supes. Supes wouldn't look that old for another five hundred years.

03-05-2005, 01:18 PM
Batman - Viggo Mortensen, Batman's in his 50's and Viggo's pushing 50. Nothing that makeup couldn't fix. Besides....he has the PERFECT jawline and chin.
Superman - Brenden Fraser, he might not look the way Superman is usually drawn, but Frank Miller didn't draw Superman looking the way he usually did. He's also a pretty good actor...just check out his versatility in Bedazzled.
Gordon - Harvey Keitel, I always thought he'd make the perfect Gordon. He's also in his 60's pushing 70.
Joker - Tim Curry, nuff said.
Two Face - Ed Harris, nuff said.
Alfred - I really have no clue. Maybe Ian McKellen.
Robin - Another no cluer...um...Lacey Chabert?

Yes, I see where your going and Tom Selleck is a Great Actor. I used to think he could of been a Great Jim Gordon. It might be just me but don't you think he has quite a ressemblence to Gordon in the Animated Series?

I certainly do..

Batman: Keaton would be great to finish it off if Burton directed. If not, Kurt Russel and now that someone brought it up, i wouldnt mind Mel Gibson either.

I's say Rusell Crowe for the Mutant leader...he's huge.

Tim Curry for Joker....Nicholson would be cool too, though.

Daniel Day Lewis sounds kinda cool for Superman

ComicBookGuyT
03-08-2005, 10:55 PM
I would really like to see Keaton do a DKR movie, with Burton directing.

Also though, I always thought that Superman couldn't age. And that even though Bruce Wayne was old, Clark Kent was still the same way that he was when they first met. He still looked fairly young in DKR from my point of view, maybe I'm reading the wrong book lol. I think they even mentioned that in it. Which was how they contrasted Superman/Batman, along with the:"Deep down he's a good person. And deep down I'm not."

Daniel Day Lewis looks good. But I just think if they were gonna follow the story closer, someone younger might be needed.

LMAO. Sorry, but I can NEVER take Burt Reynolds seriouslly.

I think that they should go with Keaton as Batman and Nicholson as Joker. Just to keep it true,cuz Batman '89 was inspired by DKR. I don't know who I would cast for the others. But down the line, like, after the new series is finished, it could make a sweet movie.

i agree tho, even if Keaton wasnt bulky at all(would look weird as ****) then hed still be good, and i like the idea of tim directing it, he could actually follow the book this time, and i bet they could really pull it off....and give a good rounded out feel for teh batman franchise.

There is only one actor who I can think of who could pull off a DKR Batman (physique wise AND looks wise), Peter Lupus from the old Mission Impossible tv series. For his 70th birthday in 2002, he set the World Weight-Lifting record of 38 tons in 30 minutes...:

This may sound funny to all of you, but for Batman..........

Micheal Ironside.
He voiced the DKR Batman in the animated series episode entiteld
"Legends Of The Dark Knight"
He had the voice down pat, and he just has that look; those of
you who don't think he looks big or mean enough, refer to "Highlander 2".
Yes, that movie sucked, but Ironside gave the impression of being big, and mean.
Unlike Keaton.(with all respect to Keaton's work, of course.)

i have been playing this game for years! way back before american psycho came out i wanted bale for a year one bruce/bats. when he got cast for begins i went bonkers with joy. but anyway...

clint eastwood was always dkr batman but that is no longer an option. mel gibson might work but i think christopher meloni from law and order:svu (elliot) could also work for bats. tom selleck looks the part and could probably pull it off but bruce willis would be the best i think. think of him brooding in unbreakable but a little older. i mean look at sin city. besides willis is a (slightly) aging action star of sorts it is kinda fitting. and his name is bruce. if alec baldwin could get in shape he could also be great.

david bowie for the joker. seriously, dkr joker has this aging drag queen thing going on and i think bowie would be inspired. my second choice would be walken. he looks the part and just imagine "im going to kill... everyone... in this room." after that its malkovich or dafoe.

i would now say that clint eastwood is a shoe in for commisioner gordon.

in a case of art imitating life arnold should play the big blue WMD. think about it. an alien comes to our country and becomes a political tool of a neo conservative administration. but seriously if your going on looks howie long has it. or patrick warburton who was great as the tick. otherwise im stumped. maybe selleck for supes?

carrie kelly? im thinking an unknown. i cant think of any actresses i could buy as dkr robin.

connery should definately play ollie. that or john cleese.

ed harris for harvey dent.

vin diesel would have made a perfect mutant leader but his career is over. screw it ,cast him anyway. thats all i got right now.

all this is fun but i think that the only we will ever get a dark knight movie is if they animate it. if it was animated in the style of the comic it could be epic! i just dont think actors and sets could capture the book as well as animation. think akira crossed with dead leaves but with the look of millers artwork intact? oh if only! bale or eastwood or anyone could do the voice of bats and the rest of the cast could follow suit. im kinda sad i thought of it as it will never happen.

Batman-Henry Rollins in about 10 years, think about it. How many older guys are in that kinda shape. He's got the size, the loner style, the acting chops to be a badass. He'd be perfect. He's also got that

Superman-Daniel Day-Lewis, he's a big dude with a square jaw that can act like a dick.

I'm gonna think of some more later, I can't think of any others.

Someone said Clint Eastwood is too old. Remember DKR is based on the first Batman series that started in 1939, or roughly 45 years before DKR. So if Batman was roughly 25 he would be 70 years old by DKR. And Eastwood is 75.

With that in mind Clint Eastwood is the best canidate (think Blood Work). I've done yesterday and today pictures to show the potential.

I love you. Ann was always my dream choice for Selina.

Anyway, I have two casts planned out. Here they are:

If Burton returns:

Batman/Bruce Wayne - Michael Keaton
The Joker - Jack Nicholson
Two-Face/Harvey Dent - Al Pacino (my dream choice for the role. I alwyas envisioned Al as Dent)
Superman/Clark Kent - Nicolas Cage (Burton's choice when he was attached the aborted late 1990s' Superman movie)
Robin - Christina Ricci
Gordon - Donald Sutherland
Selina Kyle - Michelle Pfeiffer
Alfred Pennyworth - Michael Gough

If Burton doesn't return:

Batman/Bruce Wayne - Harrison Ford
The Joker - Robin Williams
Two-Face/Harvey Dent - Alec Baldwin or Ray Liotta
Superman/Clark Kent - Jim Caveizel
Robin - Christina Ricci
Gordon - Harvey Keitel
Selina Kyle - Ann-Margret
Alfred Pennyworth - John Cleese

Directed by: Ridley Scott
Music: N/A
Writer: Frank L. Miller

Just my ideas.

Wayne is explicitly stated to be 55 in DKR. It's not supposed to be in continuity from the 1939 version.

There's little point doing DKR with someone who's never played Batman before. Then we're seeing the return of a Batman we've never known. Christian Bale is the logic choice to play Batman in a DKR movie, assuming the franchise doesn't go down the toilet... you just have to wait 15-20 years.

A lot of people seem to just want to use Burton's cast for a DKR movie. You guys do realize that in the Burton/Shumacer continuity, Joker and Two-Face are both dead, therefore a DKR movie could never be in continuity with them. This means that Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson could not be in it, as it would confuse the average movie goer. You cant use the same cast in different continuities. People will be confused, thinking "didn't the Joker die?". Cast a new Joker though, and people might catch on that it's a different continuity (which is what should happen with BB2). Anyways, here's my cast:

Batman: Bruce Willis

Joker: Mark Hammil (B:TAS actors are fine since no one even knows who played them. My friends didn't even believe me when i told them Hammil was the Joker.

Gordon: Clint Eastwood

Two-Face: Ray Liotta

I agree. I'm going to ditch my cast for the Burton DKR. Don't get me wrong I'd love it to happen but it's too much of a stretch. That being said, I revised my non-Burton cast.

Batman/Bruce Wayne - Alec Baldwin (Harrison Ford was my original choice, but I doubt he'd do it)
http://www.alecbaldwin.com/images/ab7a_bg.jpg

The Joker - Robin Williams or John Glover or Brad Dourif (there are a lot of good choices out there (none as good as Jack, though), but these are the three that really stick out in my mind)

Harvey Dent - Billy Zane (only one I can think of, Dent looks alot like Zane in DKR)
Superman - Ray Liotta

http://www.famous-people-search.com/bruce_willis/bruce_willis_photos/bruce_willis_009.jpg

And Carmine, Billy Zane is way too young for DKR Dent. He is 39. Slap on all the prosthetics you want, he still won't work. Besides, Zane would make a better Mr. Freeze in the current franchise. Pacino has always beem the ideal choice for Dent for me, and since he's way too old for the current franchise, I want him to play him in DKR. Brad Dourif would make a great Joker BTW, though he might be a little short.

Carmine Falcone
01-07-2006, 04:10 PM

I at one point wanted Willis as well, but then I realized he'd be better off as Two-Face. In DKR, Harvey Dent is bald, and he also looks a great deal younger than most of the characters due to surgery to heal his face. Bruce still looks youthful despite being in his early 50s', and I think he could pull off a great Two-Face. I think with a little makeup (and some shaving), Pacino can pull it off as well. I always thought that when Al was younger (like during his Godfather days up to about Scarface), I always thought Alw ould have owned as Two-Face, since he really has the short tempered persona down to a T. Now that he's older, I think he'd be a great DKR Dent.

I agree he cant act, and I dont want him anywhere near the Batman Begins Sequels, but the one character in all the Bat-Universe that needs looks and not acting is the mutant leader. Any Pro Wrestler has the acting ability to say "I will eat your throat out" - infact many already play the character, they just dont know it.

i think a dkr movie would be the perfect situation to bring tim burton back to the franchise, so:

bruce wayne / batman - michael keaton
joker - jack nicholson
alfred - michael gough
gordon - pat hingle
superman - daniel day lewis

and i think it shouldn't be made like sin city, would be stupid for a batman film.
anyway, screenplay by sam hamm, david goyer and warren skaaren, directed by tim burton

Robin is very much a kid. Kiera Knightly is a woman. I suppose with the clotes, haircut etc. it might work. But I think she should look more like one of the Harry Potter kids (age-wise) than like a moviestar bombshell.

Plus I haven't seen The Jacket...can she do a convincing American accent? Thats necessary.

To be fair, he did his thing in Boiler Room, the first Fast and Furious, Saving Private Ryan and looks like he could do his thing in Find me Guilty (directed by Sidney Lumet). Anything's possible. But his name is too big as a box office gimmick actor to appeal to Nolan maybe

Why would you want Tim Burton? Plus Pat Hingle was a horrible horrible Gordon and should never come near another Bat flick. Keaton doesnt have the Bruce Wayne look to him, he didnt havnt in 89 and he doesnt have it now. Plus I cant see the Nicholson working as a DKR Joker- for one he is dead, two he was to flamboyant. DKR should not be a sequel to the Burton franchise, but the Nolan Franchise if ever done in live action. I still think an animated version would be the way to go for many reasons.

Bettany hasnt even been cast yet and I know that he will be the best Joker ever. I am not a huge fan of the Jack Nicholson Joker as a Joker (I loved the charcter but not as the classic joker) and Mark Hammil's Joker was to restrained (being on a cartoon) to ever get to reach its full potential. In Bettany I see the combination of Nicholson and Hammil but with a much more serious (while still being Joker like) tone.

03-02-2006, 05:40 PM
The name Ridley Scott seems to come up over and over and over when discussing comic films. Is he awesome? yes. Is his style great for a film like DKR? yes. I just sometimes think its like casting Alec Baldwin as Harvey Bullock. It's too high profile. Not everybody appreciates comics as art/literature. I think if Ridley Scott wanted to do a comic movie he wouldve be now.

03-08-2006, 08:24 PM
Focus, people, focus. This is casting DKR, not just casting things that would be cool. Jack Nicholson is a fantastic actor, but he's all wrong for DKR Joker. DKR Joker is slim and effeminate, neither of which I see in Jack. Suggestions like Bowie or Peter O'Toole are much closer to the mark.

Similarly, the few people who are casting Robin are throwing names like Christina Ricci and Keira Knightly around. That doesn't fly for DKR. Carrie Kelly is a kid. Maybe 13 or 14. Age-appropriate casting will probably mean an unknown. Not sure if the Lemony Snicket girl would fly, but at least that suggestion was in the right ballpark.

And finally, Batman. DKR Batman means Clint Eastwood's attitude and Arnold's physique. Good luck finding that combination. You can't cast an average-sized actor like Michael Keaton, even if he bulks up. You need a big guy who's tough as nails. Mickey Rourke is the best I've heard. Somewhere between 'Domino' and 'Sin City.'

http://www.joeacevedo.com/images/figurezone/dcdfigures/dcdjokerdk.jpg

This is The Joker from DKR. He does not look slim at all here. He looks quite buff, actually. He's definitiely effeminette. I'll give you that.

Jack could pull it off IMO. He's one of the finest actors ever, IMO only Brando is ahead of him. I loved his Joker in B89. I view it as the ideal version of the character. He could pull it off again. O'Toole is in his 70s'. If we can't have Eastwood as Batman, then O'Toole won't work as Joker. Bowie would be a solid second choice.

Robin is a hard role to cast. Knightley seems best suited for it IMO, regardless of age.

Nicholson is a fantastic Joker, but he is dead in the movie world. Michael Keaton could make for an intresting DKR Bats, but you cant have Keaton without Nicholson - that would not make any sense. The only way to do TDKR is with either new actors, set it in the Nolanverse or make it animated - my prefered option.

The Last Detail
Chinatown
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
The Shining
Reds
Terms Of Endearment
Prizzi's Honor
The Witches Of Eastwick (not as groundbreaking as endearing as his other works, but he plays the best Satan of the silver screen, along with Pacino in Devil's Advocate)
Newsradio (a small role, but still a great film or so I'm told since I haven't seen it)
Batman (chances are you've seen this one)
A Few Good Men
Hoffa
Wolf (underrated)
The Crossing Guard (one of Jack's most diverse roles)
As Good As It Gets
About Schmidt (my parents said it was boring, but he did get an Oscar nom. But be warned: Kathy Bates is nude in this movie)
Anger Management (far from his best work, but showcases hwo great of a comedic actor he is)
Something's Gotta Give

I named over 20 of those films there. Out of those 20, 12 of them had performances for which he received Oscar nominations. He won three of them. More nominations than any other actor in history. Granted, there are a few films up there I haven't seen, but I've seen the majority of them, plus I'm a huge Nicholson buff and these are the films that fellwo Nicholson fans generally list as his best.

I love Pierce as an actor (not just for Bond), but I don't see the resemblance at all. Then again, Bruce is in the cowl in that pic. Even though about 20 years too old for the part and a little thin, Clint is still the actor who most closely resmebles DKR Bats.

Also, I'm not changing my choices of Gibson and Ford, but what about Michael Madsen as DKR Bats? A little too young but I think he can pull it off.

03-16-2006, 07:06 PM
After much thought, I've decided to change my choice for DKR Bats. I know I will be endlessly flamed for it, but I'm going with Denzel Washington. Race aside, he's a perfect fit IMO. He's around the right age, he looks the part, and is one of the actors in the 50 and over age range who have the muscular physique that Bruce had in DKR. Add to the fact he's one of the finest actors ever, and you have a perfect fit for the part.

Denzel all the way.

i like the Denzel casting, but it doesnt flow with me. Dont get me wrong, if Batman were an african-american character, Denzel is the most blatently obvious choice for the role. And he would probably do a damn good job at playing the character. But Batman is a white character, and not to sound racist, it should always be that way.

as for Batman, ive been paying attention to Ed Harris lately, and he's one of my choices for Bruce. Put some hair on that man's head now! If not him, im still all for Bruce Willis.

and someone said David Bowie for Joker. if Bowie can do an American accent, that casting is genius. There's always been something creepy about him...just look at the Diamond Dogs album cover. Stare at Bowie on that cover...it's creepy.

I totally wouldnt mind seeing an alternate-reality black batman, but I think DKR is the wrong place to do it.

here's my David Bowie manip. The picture is a still from The Man Who Fell To Earth, so he's kind of a young guy in this shot. Also, i did the picture in Microsoft Picture It! Plus, and it's really my first attempt at doing this so it may look crappy.

Wow. It's amazing how much David Bowie looks like the DKR Joker. If a DKR movie were to ever happen, he's my first choice for Joker.

My cast would be:

Batman/Bruce Wayne - Bruce Willis

Joker - David Bowie

Harvey Dent - Michael Madsen

Jim Gordon - Clint Eastwood

Selina Kyle - Ann Margaret.

ACH!

While that's not a bad choice. I can't fathom choosing anybody over Al Pacino for this part.

i did a manip of Bruce Willis's face under the Bat-cowl from Dead End. It's just a head shot...looks alright. I used a picture from Sin City, cut out the lower jaw from Bruce's face, and put over Clark Bartram's lower jaw. Then i cut out Bruce Willis's eyes from the picture and put em over Clark Bartam's eyes...it looks pretty good. But kind of goofy too. So im gonna try it with a Christian Bale picture instead

alright, here's my Dead End Bruce Willis Bats head shot, but as i head, im not too fond of this one:

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b79/Beware308/BruceBats.jpg


now, if anyone has the one picture of Christian Bale in the suit, it's a test shot, where he's glaring at the camera. It's similar to the one where he's got his fists raised(this one will do as well) that everyone makes the "Raise The Finger!" manips with. But if anyone can hook me up with that shot, it would be appreciated.

There's also a fan made manip of Christian Bale's lower jaw superimposed in a live-action Spandex costume. If anyone's got that one as well, please hook me up.

Why not? He has the Bruce Jaw, he would need to bulk up sure - but so would just about any actor mentioned. He has the voice of course and fully understands the character of Batman. I think it is perfect casting.

Neither of them really do it for me. Ed Harris is not bulky or tall enough. In the book, Bruce was a pretty big guy. Ed's kind of scrawny and he's only 5'9. Then again, Kurt Russel is only 5'10, but he has a better body for the role IMO.

Bruce would be great, no doubt, but I think he'd fare better as DKR Dent. Dent was bald in DKR, and it would be nice to see Bruce as a villain instead of his usual heroic persona.

Good choice. I'd prefer Denzel or Kurt, but Garber would be terrific as well.
