Brave and the Bold Casting Thread

[DarthSkywalker]

The ideals, most of whom I don't think would actually be up for it, in no real order:

Jake Gyllenhaal
Cosmo Jarvis
Austin Butler
Jacob Elordi
Lee Pace
Oliver Jackson Cohen
Bill Skarsgard

If I could pick:

Bruce - Jake Gyllenhaal
Dick - Jacob Elordi
Babs - Thomasin McKenzie
Little D - Owen Cooper

If they cast an old enough actor for Bruce, my absolute dream Nightwing casting is Dev Patel.

Who they then let be Batman with Damian as Robin because if we're doing Morrison stuff, do the best Morrison stuff.

Steven Yeun also has the exact right brooding intensity (see: Burning) for Batman but even a DCU that wasn't obviously pointedly not doing any racebending would never have the balls to be open to a Batman who wasn't white.

I feel like there is decent crossover for Bruce and Bond. Which is why Dev Patel would be be great. Michael B. Jordan is the choice people act like Glenn Powell is.

Robin Williams in One Hour Photo has some of the same DNA as Adam Sandler and Steve Carrell in Uncut Gems and Foxcatcher. I love when primarily comedic actors do something totally unexpected.

Robin Williams not ever being in a Batman movie was a huge missed opportunity. I feel like casting Steve Carrell or Sandler in one of these would set things right in some weird cosmic way.

Carrell for Hugo Strange

Sandler for Rupert Thorne

I lowkey want a comedic actor to do a shock dramatic turn as Batman ala Keaton again. Bill Hader Batman has always stuck in my brain as an idea.

I know Burton already wanted Williams for his Riddler but he would've been so good as Reeves' version if The Batman was made in the late 80s or 90s.
