Than he'd be just like Bruce. That'd be boring and pointless.
Thomas Dekker as Terry (Sorry cant think of anyone else atm)
James woods as Blight
BB could be a great film but i dont think the mcginnis character is that special personally. he seems more a cockey guy who stumbleed into being the new batman then the emotional scarring as a child, years of physical and mental training then rebirth as batman seen in B89-BB.

im working on a BB manip so ill post that when im done
I liked mad stand and the royal flush gang too.The only problem with BB is the lack of great villains the only ones who left an impressio where Curare, Blight and one other, the guy who was an african hunter i forgot his name.
Am I the only one who would love to see a live action adaptation of Batman Beyond? Maybe a couple years after Nolan finishes up. I could see it making a really cool trilogy.
Have the first movie focus on Terry's origin and use Blight as a villain. I wouldn't change a thing from the opening of the pilot. That would make a killer opening scene (where Wayne has to pull a gun on a thug to defend himself as his heart acts up during a fight and because of that he hangs up the cape and cowl). The first half would essentially be the pilot to the animated series. It will introduce and climax show Terry saving Wayne from the Jokers and learning his secret, stealing the Batsuit, infilitrating Wayne Powers, messing up a deal to sell chemical weapons to a third world warlord and killing Mr.Fixx in the progress (as well as transforming Derek Powers into Blight). From there, we can have the second half focus on Wayne accepting Terry as the new Batman and training him. Climax with a battle between Powers and Terry (obviously it would be a bit more detailed than that )
The second movie could focus on the Royal Flush gang. And then end the trilogy with a big screen, live action adaptation of Return of the Joker.
Would anyone else love to see this? What would your cast be?
Terry McGinnis, should probably be an unknown.
I'd actually go with Michael Keaton for Bruce. He can play the darker aspects of the character, audiences know that he has played Batman in the past, size would no longer be an issue as Bruce is old...and he is pretty much around the right age (maybe add 10 years with make up). I know a lot of people will say Clint Eastwood, but lets face it...this guy has not done anything mainstream in years. He is all about Oscar bait and would never accept the project.
As for Blight...hmm, as odd as this sounds...Ted Danson. He is the right age, has the right look, and Damages proved that he can do serious roles.
Tell me he doesn't just scream Blight/Derek Powers.
If they do a movie`...leave out the entire Bruce is really Terry's father subplot. That felt so forced.

I absolutely loved this cartoon and feel it would make a fantastic movie, i hope they do it sometime in the future as i have always felt it has a lot of potential to appeal to both older and younger film-goers, not to mention it could be a great new twist on the batman mythos for casual fans.
Mustnt have made it to that episode, but yeah, that sounds REALLY poor.
