Who would you cast as 'The Falcon'

Silvermoth · 05-11-2012, 06:58 PM

If he was in "Captain America 2" I mean. Really, why shouldn't he be. Captain America needs a new supporting cast and he's a great fit and a fan favourite character.

I like Dule Hill personally. I reckon he would have a great rapport with Chris Evans

MarvelKnight · 05-11-2012, 07:31 PM

Aldis Hodge (If he doesn't get Black Panther)

or

Antwon Tanner

Anthony Mackie.

Noel Clarke would make a great Sam Wilson/Falcon...he's got the geek cred. with roles in Doctor Who and Star Trek 2....Marvel is already in talks with his Trek co-stars Alice Eve and Benedict Cumberbatch...

If the filmmakers can update the original green outfit, that would be great.. no ostentatious "bird nose" (that yellow thing typically seen on his brow), however.. and give him a chest logo..

For the first appearance, if they keep him ground-bound like cap (as he was for the first couple of years) that might work for the solo film.. for an Avengers appearance he can get the wings upgrade from the Panther..

Oh, and no pimp background..

Eh, I don't think I'd wait an extra film to put on the wings. Those are far more defining of the character than when he was grounded. But I agree with you about his background. In fact, I'd think they'd scrap any version of his convoluted and silly 616 backstory altogether. Hate to keep going back to the Ultimates, but since the movies rely heavily on that as their source material, Ult Falcon is a little simpler and more straightforward --- ex-military who served under Fury, and is now a SHIELD agent with nanotech-powered glider wings.

Anthony Mackie.

He looks like he could kick ass, and is close in age to Chris Evans.

I'd go with something similar to the Ult incarnation. Not as a SHIELD agent or a scientest, but a modern day special forces soldier. For some reason, I'm not fond of making non-SHIELD agents into SHIELd agents.

Free drinks for everyone who suggested Mackie! (Assuming his negotiations with Marvel don't fall through.)
