Cast the DC Universe the 80s Edition

[LaughterLives]

She would’a done it, had Schumacher stayed on for Batman 5.

If we're going into the 90's then Juliette Lewis should've played her.

Justice League (1986)

Kal-El/Clark Kent/Superman- Kurt Russell
Bruce Wayne/Batman- Richard Gere
Diana Prince/Wonder Woman- Brooke Shields
Arthur Curry/Aquaman- Dolph Lundgren
Barry Allen/Flash- Matthew Broderick
Victor "Vic" Stone/Cyborg- Mario Van Peebles
Alfred Pennyworth- Sean Connery
Lois Lane- Geena Davis
Steppenwolf (voice/CGI/motion capture)- Christopher Lee

 

[LaughterLives]

Gere is an interesting idea. I can't picture him being a good Batman but it'd be interesting. I think he'd suit GL better.

Christopher Lee!....Brilliant!

[David H.]

I was thinking of an 80s Justice League with Warren Beatty as Bats, Paul Scofield as Alfred and Nicol Williamson as Steppenwolf.

 

[Tg11]

Another choice for Batman that could have really worked in the 1980s definitely would have been Mel Gibson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Alec Baldwin as Bruce Wayne/Batman or even Jeff Goldblum as Bruce Wayne/Batman

 

[David H.]

Jeff Goldblum definitely could have possibly been the perfect Scarecrow but I doubt my total certainty.

 

[Tg11]

Emilio Estevez he also would have been my pick for Barry Allen/Flash or even Rob Lowe as Barry Allen/Flash

However the only person back in the 80s who could have remotely played Aquaman either would have been Lundgren or Swayze

 

[LaughterLives]

Jeff Goldblum definitely could have possibly been the perfect Scarecrow but I doubt my total certainty.

He'd be a great Scarecrow. I just think he would've been a better Joker. Especially visually.

Who’s Batman? Jeff Bridges?

 

[Eddie Dean]

He's really the only Carpenter lead that's not Chevy Chase or Roddy Pipper left, so sure!

With Donald Pleasence as Alfred, Lee Van Cleef as Gordon and James Hong as Ra's Al Ghul.

And I guess EisenLex is James Woods.

 

[LaughterLives]

Dennis Dun would be Batman

 

[Eddie Dean]

Haha.

 

[David H.]

Chevy can be Joker with Daryl Hannah as Harley Quinn. Keith David as Deadshot and Roddy Piper as Captain Boomerang.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Enchantress:

 

[Deck Rickard]

Yes! Kim Catrall in Big Trouble is the best.

And Kurt Russell could have made a good Deadshot if he played him exactly like Jack Burton.
