Batman/Bruce Wayne Casting Thread - Part 4

[Boom]

 

[Gamma Goliath]

I'd still take him over taron.

 

[Boom]

He's a taller, American, more talented version of Kit Harrington (who WB had allegedly made mock-ups of in the cowl).

He's in the right age range.

He's an actor that's been making a name for himself in the independent film industry with some strong performances (ala Jack O'Connell).

I can see it. What's that guy's name again?

 

[Boom]

Christopher Abbott.

 

[Rorschach2012]

Boom-
I think you’re onto something with the pairing of Christopher Abbott and Caleb Landry Jones as Batman and Joker. Interestingly, they both starred in the movie “Tyrel”.

Is because he looks fat and out of shape?

You can't play Batman if you have cottonballs in your mouth!!!

It'sa the Italian Bat-man undercover for the mafiosa.

Batfleck is over

He’s no longer Batman but as a sign of goodwill, he’s taken on a new role in the upcoming reboot:

 

[Deck Rickard]

Eddie’s post just made me laugh so hard I cried.

Ben can play Cottonmouth in the Luke Cage reboot.


Also, Abbott would be a good pick for Bruce.

 

[Sawyer]

You know, if it wasn't for TDKR baggage, I'd kind of like to see Joseph Gordon Levitt be a part of the conversation.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Where has JGL been lately? It seemed like he was in 5 movies a year for a while but then he kinda disappeared.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

I don't think his acting ability was ever that strong. Plus, that baby/teen face and faux smug attitude (not saying he is, he seems quite nice) will only get you so far, certainly over the age of 35.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Nah.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Looks like a Grayson to me.

he looks old for Grayson

After all the rumors of a Godfather Pt. II like dual narrative he just assumed he had to undergo a Don Corleone like preparation

 

[Cain]

He kinda looks like that best friend guy from Good Will Hunting.

I like the Christopher Abbot idea. Good height, perfect age, good face shape for a cowl. Is he a good actor?

Yes he is.

 

[Jekecy]

The trailer for his latest movie reminds me of another breakout movie starring a future Batman:



I still think he lacks the looks for the part, but talent does always triumph over anything. Though I'd prefer to not to sacrifice anything either.

He was really good in a movie called James White. He’s headlining Clooney’s Catch-22, so he’s got a Batman’s endorsement.
