Abin Sur Casting?

[superman05]

Haven't seen any threads on this...

Merge if necessary.

I say Doug Jones. Thoughts?

[Changeling]

Doug Jones sounds good

[MatthewZD]

How about either David Boreanaz or Nathan Fillion? Maybe that might satisfy many fans who wanted one of them as Hal.

doug's name has been thrown out many times by posters here. I would be totally down with him. Though if i recall he is due to be possibly filming something during the time gl is due to start up. But Abin Sur's role could be very small and only need like a few days to do.

[Man of Tomorrow]

Does Doug have an epic voice for Abin Sur?

I've only seen him in F4:2 and he didn't do the Surfer's voice.

[Jake Cassidy]

Lance Reddick from 'Fringe'.

[Motown Marvel]

ben kingsly, ha ha.

[FaT_tONle]

Just get whoever was maniped in that fan trailer.

[greenlantern248]

That was Doug Jones as the Silver Surfer in the fan trailer.

I saw get Doug Jones back then have Ron Pearlman do Abin's voice

[StorminNorman]

Doug Jones acting a Ron Pearlman voiced object would be one of the most uncreative events in cinematic history.

Sam Worthington

[Chris B]

Arnold Vosloo.

[Doctor Jones]

Good God, can we actually come up with someone other than Doug Jones please? HOw unoriginal are we? Just because it's an alien doesn't mean we need Jones. I'm sure there are alot of capable actors out there who can do it too.

Terrance Stamp.

Jones is one of the best. He'd be perfect for this.

[Nirvana]

Chiwetel Ejiofor?

Ive been saying Colm Feore for Abin Sur but there isnt any one actor Im very attached too

[Webhead2006]

Yea with abin so many actors could fit the character well. Plus since his role will probably only end up being 2-5mins max makes you wonder do they want to go lesser known actor for cheap or go with a big name guy for atleast voice and throw a chunk a change at that actor.

He is awesome. Good one.


But it's such an easy role to cast... the only requirement is an epic voice.

[Webhead2006]

Yea so many people could be a good fit for the role. As i said we dont know how long of the role in the film will be. Would they want to just go with some random actor for cheap price, or would they want to get some known guy to do it and pay a large fee to him for such a small role.

[Young Superman]

Lance Reddick

[Grommers]

I agree, we should get Jones.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Doug Jones.

[dnno1]

Should be Tomar Re.

[rdh007]

Lance Reddick never hurts.

[Webhead2006]

Well even if doug was cast as abin couldnt rule out him doing multiple roles like he did in hellboy two, plus it would be a good way to save on casting more people if they want to keep all the main actors's budget at a fixed price.

[DarkReflections]

Jones is one of the best. He'd be perfect for this.

imo i think someone else other than doug should get the role. i love doug and i think hes a great actor, but that would be typecasting if they got doug to do it, and im not a big fan of typecasting.
