Batman/Bruce Wayne Casting Thread

Shorter hair would make him look a bit older.

Not really. I love Jake with long hair...

I'm all for Jake playing Batman and Joker, Enemy-style. That'd be amazing. It'll never happen though.

If we get another appearance from Leto as the Joker, I really hope he and Reeves rethink the approach to the DCEU Joker. Leto's got the talent to do well in the role, but the vision for him definitely needs to change.

Yeah I can’t imagine Reeves wanting to use most of what they came up with for joker in SS.
Doesn’t fit his style at all.
I’d love to see what he’d come up with.

They need to give him a lot of freedom on this.
Let him get batman back on track.

I wanted to see what both Armie Hammer and Jake Gyllenhaal might look like in the Batfleck suit, so I did these quick mock ups.

With the cowl on it could be anybody.

True. I vote for Steve Buscemi, then. Those eyes can really strike fear into a criminals soul.

Illeana Douglas as Catwoman then.

I highly suggest folks watch this video analyzing Gyllenhaal's style of acting and what makes him so particularly gifted at the craft.

I especially love the narrator's point on how Gyllenhaal "designs" his characters' eyes and give them all a unique look in and of themselves. Imagine what he could craft with Batman with his approach to acting.

Just a brillant actor.

Dont know what Warner is going to do, i like a lot Affleck, but we would be lucky to have him

True but he's always been a better villain.

Jake seems just as excited about the rumors as we are.

Well, it is a big opportunity.

I’m NOT suggesting him at all, but I’m watching Colossal right now and just realized how much Jason Sudekis looks like Ben Affleck.

..... What

 

[Matt.S99]

You don’t see it? They don’t look identical, but really similar. (But then again, don’t all white dudes? Lol just kidding)

 

[hellblazer103]

Nah man... Just no, lol

 

[Eddie Dean]

He looks like Affleck's less handsome brother.

 

[Matt.S99]

He looks like Affleck's less handsome brother.

Yes, exactly.
(But still better looking than his real brother)

Nah man... Just no, lol

Yes.

 

[Eddie Dean]

I think Casey is the better looking Affleck.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

Gyllenhaal as Batman to Leto's Joker equals perfection

God no.

 

[squeekness]

I think Casey is the better looking Affleck.

Me, too.

 

[OutOfBoose]

Gyllenhaal as Batman to Leto's Joker equals perfection

God please no.

 

[Astro13Zombie]

I went from having a hard time picturing it to needing it to happen

 

[OutOfBoose]

Jake is in a great shape. Anyway, I don't want to get too excited yet. Who knows what options are there and who knows what Reeves wants to do with his films, but it's an interesting choice.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

not my first choice but if an actor of Gyllenhaal's caliber wants it, you give him the ball and let him run.

Gyllenhaal Batman by Bosslogic

The idea has really grown on me

I'm getting a Keaton sort of vibe from this. He doesn't really resemble the character in the way he's typically drawn, but something about him in the suit just looks right.

I actually would be all for that type of Batsuit. The gold lining around the bat emblem really works with the all-black Batsuit and cape. Feels like a really nice marriage of the current Batsuit in the comics with the Keaton era Batsuits. I kinda hope he does another one of these with the full suit and maybe the cowl.

Yeah, it looks awesome. I know we just got the gray and black look, but I honestly wouldn't mind transitioning back to all black if they made it look like that.
