Cast the LOSH

[Derrick9592]

I haven't seen any thread about casting the Legion of Superheroes, so post your best casting choices for any characters you want in the LOSH, regardless whether they have films in the works or not. Who are your choices for the characters of the LOSH? It could be any hero or villian.

I'm terrible at these casting threads, but I thought I could at least add a non-animated-series pic to use as refference.
I have loved Legion of Superheroes since I was a kid, and I think it would be grea tin live action. I had always hoped it would become a TV series, but now that's been animated, I don't think that will happen.

 

[Derrick9592]

It's okay and I agree that it would be great in live action. I've always imagined that it would become a TV series (ala Smallville, but in the 31st Century). At least the animated series had a good run.

 

[04nbod]

the animated series needed another year- preferably without superman... or the other superman

 

[Johann Krauss]

^I agree

 

[04nbod]

okey dokey! I only have stong feelings over one of the 'cast'

No child genius cliche!!!

Alaina Huffman as Saturn Girl
I'm going really old with these but in my defense the legion isn't a teen team in every incarnation. Pre crisis they all married off!

 

[The Shadow]

Pre-lyposuction Josh Peck as Bouncing Boy.

Yeah, that's what I thought at first though, lol. I'm thinking of seeing Jonah Hill or Spencer Breslin as Bouncing Boy.

That's perfect. I can see that

Well they are now going to be appearing in Smallville which is cool i hope that turns out good. And which ever characters they have appearing are cast well.

 

[Sky Captain]

So I woke up about ten minutes ago, and literally my first thought (even before peeing) was "I feel like casting the Legion". I guess in that time span, I did. They be hurr:

Rokk Krinn/Cosmic Boy - Tom Sturridge
Imra Ardeen/Saturn Girl - Kaley Cuoco
Garth Ranzz/Lightning Lad - Michael Welch
Querl Dox/Brainiac 5 - Jamie Bell
Tinya Wazzo/Phantom Girl - Odette Yustman
Chuck Taine/Bouncing Boy - Jonah Hill
Luorno Durgo/Triplicate Girl - Autumn Reeser

Very good, decent choices

isnt bouncing boy asian/oriental looking?

 

[Sky Captain]

He always seemed fairly white to me.

Here's a cast comparison thing anyway:

 

[Webhead2006]

ok my mistake i seen a pic or something somewhere once where bouncing ball looked asian.

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

I'd go with young Hollywood up and coming actors (or established actors) in the main roles as opposed to unknowns; seems to be WB's current strategy.

Starring:

James McAvoy - Brainiac V

Robert Pattinson - Garth/Lightning Lad

Elisa Cuthbert - Imra/Saturn Girl

Joseph Gordon Levitt - Timber Wolf

Ben Barnes - Rokk/Cosmic Boy
