If anything, I think the inclusion of actors like Jeremy Irons, Anthony Hopkins, and other great actors of a higher name value shows the comic book genre is reaching out to more and more actors and actresses and is drawing in more of these names.

Well, sometimes it's just actors who want to have some fun or make something their kids/grand kids can see (this is like the go-to response).

Ha that's why Russell Crowe played in MOS.

Anthony Hopkins and Robert Redford mentioned that a couple of times.

I'm hoping to go toy shopping today - I still havent found the Superman The Movie DC Comics Multiverse figure. I've chatted with other fans and they havent seen it yet in stores either.

 

[Lencho01]

What if Bruce had files on some of these people already...

I think Robert Redford being in Winter Soldier was the biggest tour de force in casting for a Superhero film in a long long time. Or at least since Nicholson did Batman.

Makes you think that maybe, just maybe if the stars aligned and the script was dynamite... Daniel Day Lewis would do a CBM.

Those are so awesome.

 

[Lencho01]

And the heroes...

It'd have to be one heck of a project and a fairly deep character considering Lewis does a project every so often and he's always in it for the grand prize. Still, the thought of him in a CBM is unfathomable.

 

[Lencho01]

Didn't they approach him for Zod?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Yeah, WB/DCE has sure has a hard time attracting talent of the caliber of Michael Caine, Jeremy Irons, Amy Addams, Ann Hathaway, Lawrence Fishburne, Gary Oldman, Ben Affleck, Russell Crowe, Jesse Eisenberg, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Christian Bale ect. to their films. Actors like that just don't want to be part of the DC Superhero films. They are SO very wary of working for DC, as zryson said... Oh wait. I meant the exact opposite.

I think Nolan approached him for Ra's Al Ghul also.

 

[Joeyjojo72]

Yeah the guy's a genius. Beautiful work.

 

[Juke Box Hero]

And the heroes...

Spoiler

Love these.

Noone was implying that DC can't attract talent.

Had a quick look through social media; found this image

 

[Juke Box Hero]

I thought Viggo Mortensen was approached for Zod and Ra's.

That's beautiful.

 

[Pickleweasel]

Who would DDL play though, I can't really picture him as anyone

 

[A.Stabelli]

Is it too soon to ask for a Batman V Superman teaser with the Hobbit?
