Batman/Bruce Wayne Casting Thread - Part 4

[Eddie Dean]

He was the quiet rage of booze soaked divorced dads everywhere!

 

[Boom]

I quite like Groff for the role.

 

[Boy Scout]

Hard pass on Groff. Good actor, but all kinds of wrong for the part.

 

[2kt09]

Groff reminds me of one of the main playable androids from Detroit Become Human

I was watching "sorry to bother you" with my wife yesterday, and thought the guy who plays insane white billionaire guy would be perfect for Batman. I wait for the credits and it's... Armie Hammer??? I had never paid attention to him. Now I know why so many folks were clammoring for him. He's fantastic for the role. Oddly, the same thing happened with Cavill. I was watching Tudors years ago and was like "they should get THAT guy for Superman." And then I realized who he was, and why so many people thought he was right for it. I doubt Hammer will get it, but he'd be great.

 

[Boom]

Aidan Turner
Armie Hammer
Christopher Abbott
Richard Madden

That's all I got.

Miles Teller

 

[Invader Joker]

Miles Teller

Not hot enough to hold a franchise tbh.

 

[Invader Joker]

What about Ansel Elgort?

 

[Eddie Dean]

Ansel Elgort would be good... FOR ME TO POOP ON

 

[Invader Joker]

Ansel Elgort would be good... FOR ME TO POOP ON

lol Just had to threw that name around since he's young, muscular and was good in Baby Driver as a practically entirely silent character, but his face doesn't quite end up convincing me.

 

[Eddie Dean]

He looks like he's always smelling a stinky fart.

 

[Kane52630]

Are we casting for A Pup Named Bruce Wayne?

 

[Invader Joker]

https://***********/TheComixKid/status/1022297236380606464 It's worth noting according to one of the guy that broke the news that apparently if Taron Egerton was taller he'd get the role, also Armie Hammer is apparently out since he's too wide and they want more of a ninja lean figure.

So, 25-30 years old, Taron Egerton-esque but taller, ninja muscular like.

 

[Eddie Dean]

I don't believe that for one second.

 

[Invader Joker]

I don't believe that for one second.

Well that dude is the best lead we got as to who they are gonna cast.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Who even is he?

 

[Invader Joker]

Who even is he?

I have no ****ing idea but a lot of people say he's legit. I think he's the guy that broke the article out yesterday, or is affiliated with those guys. I'm gonna decide to believe him since most of the information makes sense.

[David H.]

He looks like he's always smelling a stinky fart.

I’m convinced he’s related to Donald Duck.

Until Top Gun 2 next year and it's Batman. Batman alone is hot enough to hold a franchise

Come on, man. I want them to continue with the Affleck style physique. It was nice to have someone who looked like a beast/had a huge frame.

How about Garrett Hedlund as Bruce Wayne/Batman? Garrett is a pretty versatile actor and not to mention one that actually has credibility to be Bruce Wayne/Batman or to carry a franchise. Yeah sure he was in Tron Legacy but so what? Garrett can also act and this man was nearly almost cast as Steve Rogers/Captain America back in the day.

Hedlund for the most part just seems like a pretty boy that has not proven himself to be much of a serious actor, but that is not true. He was in Four Brothers, where he was pretty damn serious and was a damn good actor in. Death Sentence, which is a perfect example of showing off how talented Hedlund is. In Death Sentence, Hedlund is so perfect in his role, that you would never even know it was him! Hedlund has great talent, and him playing Batman would just further solidify himself as being one of the best up and coming actors in Hollywood.

His acting skill is perfect! His voice is also great for Batman I think, it is very deep.

Stephen Amell if he were not in the CW Universe he would be perfect as Bruce Wayne/Batman even though he plays Oliver Queen/Green Arrow in the CW Universe.

Problem with most of these young guys is that they look too boyish. Christian Bale was probably 29/30 when he was cast but he looked like a man, some of these guys just look too much like they're in college or something.
