Cast the Marvel Universe

[Artistsean]

This is based on a thread started by ComicChick, "Who would you cast in the DC Universe.

I thought it sounded fun, so why not ask the same about Marvel?

Post your casting choices for any marvel character, doesn't matter if they have a movie in the works, have already been in a movie, or will never have a movie at all.
Who are you choices for playing Marvel characters?

Hell Yes!!!

[BizarroAids]

If he lost some weight, or toned out his muscles. I've always felt that Tom Sizemore would be perfect as Cable.

I love the idea of Kevin McKidd as DD, he's got the attitude and the overall look, to me that is.

And Greg Kinnear for Hank Pym. No doubt about that.

Now if he doesn't play him I might be upset. Great casting.

Still trying to think up my own.

I'd buy McKidd as Banshee. Much better role for him than anything Thor related IMO.

Dum Dum Dugan- Ted Levine



Iron Fist- Charlie Hunnam



Luke Cgae- Idris Elba




Terror Inc- Johnny Depp
Yeah, this one needs explaining. Depp is awesome with eccentric characters. Nonconvential characters seems to be his thing so between Terror from Terror Inc and Spider Jerusalem (just for the spot on Thompson impression) should be the characters Depp plays.

Ooops.

[marcvader]

I really like that Namor casting as well. Spot on.

Misty Knight- Sydney Poitier

[marcvader]

DAMN she's cute...

An alternate for Eric O'Grady - Ryan Kwanten and Spencer Grammer as Stature

YES to that Ant-Man!!!!

[Artistsean]

Someone else posted this in the cast the Avengers movie, and in the Cast the Marvel Universe threads, but I always thought Gary Sinise would make a great Nick Fury


Same thing with Denis Quaid


I suppose Bruce Willis could make a decent Fury, he should play some comic character.

This is who Fury is now in the movies, and I am fine with that since they already cast him.


I just want to see him with short hair, with gray in it, and wearing a uniform or something like this:

[cerealkiller182]

The Sentry

although I dont think Sentry will ever make it to film. Ive always liked Brad Pitt in unconvential leading man/non-pretty boy roles. (Se7en, 12 Monkeys, even Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Oceans movies he has a real comedic turn)

Charlie Day (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia)

I know he's have to hit the gym for it, but seriously, Charlie is one of the few people who I think could really pull off all the off-the-wall stuff Deadpool does and says. He does things in It's Always Sunny that are completely insane and awesome, yet he does them like they are perfectly normal.

OMG, both are perfect. I can definately see Pitt as a God-like superhero and at the same time be a normal family man.
And as for Charlie... well, it's just genius.

Oh Yeah! I completely agree!
