Alfred Pennyworth in the reboot - Page 3

Eddie Dean · 03-04-2013, 04:37 PM

Sam Neill!!!

Rodrigo90 · 03-04-2013, 05:27 PM

Michael Caine, what with a return to the Nolanverse

TrueMiracle85 · 03-07-2013, 01:26 AM

Donald Sumpter would be a great choice!

Sharkboy · 03-07-2013, 03:12 PM

Alan Rickman would be brilliant.

Rodrigo90 · 03-07-2013, 11:51 PM

Old Pierce

regwec · 03-08-2013, 09:48 AM

I think he is a bit fat and botoxy for Alfred. I can see the reasoning, but would prefer his predecessor as 007, Mr Timothy Dalton.

The Guard · 03-08-2013, 10:41 AM

The only problem with Brosnan...is that you run the risk of him being sexier than whoever is playing Bruce Wayne.

Ladies Man Alfred...that's an interesting angle.

I see what you mean...he looks smooth as a baby's bum

I wouldn't mind Dalton either. Not fussy on Rickman.

But with Pierce, he's my top choice because he could play a much tougher Alfred and at the same time, the sensitive father figure.

"Alfred. Do you mind explaining how mine And Selina's baby has been Born a cockney?"

Timothy Dalton as Earth One Alfred.

Dalton is more the prim and proper gentleman like mainstream Alfred.

Brosnan is more Earth One Alfred.

regwec · 03-10-2013, 05:24 AM

Er...I would back Dalton against Brosnan in a fight, to be honest. Dalton's Bond ate brick sandwiches for breakfast.

Rodrigo90 · 03-10-2013, 12:07 PM

Dalton is pushing 70. Brosnan 60. No competition

Is Dalton 66 or 68? His Wikipedia is unclear

gwynplaine · 03-10-2013, 02:51 PM

Michael Palin or Terence Stamp.

I just looked up Chuck Norris' DOB in order to death-ray your argument, and by a weird coincidence, found that he is 73 today.

Happy birthday, fist-beard.

Rodrigo90 · 03-10-2013, 03:10 PM

Happy birthday Chuck lol

I wouldn't have minded him as Alfred either

starwolf_oakley · 03-10-2013, 05:48 PM

Kevin Whately from "Inspector Lewis" would be a great Alfred. Episodes of "Inspector Lewis" make this clear to me.

Rodrigo90 · 03-10-2013, 07:27 PM

My fellow geordie lol

He's 62? Doesn't look it.

The Boy Scout · 03-10-2013, 10:34 PM

I'm not particularly concerned who plays Alfred, but I've seen people mention Alan Rickman, and I think that'd be interesting.

combocaz · 03-10-2013, 10:45 PM

Michael Keaton

Him and Bill Nighy are the only ones I can't get away with. As much as I love them, they're just too sour to play Alfred imo.

The Boy Scout · 03-10-2013, 11:15 PM

I understand where you're coming from. However, I think Rickman would be able to effortlessly portray Alfred's sarcasm and wit.
