Cast the new DCU

[Deck Rickard]

Realistically, she’s only like the fourth or fifth worst woman in Trump’s orbit. I’ll take it.

True. She’s a horrible person but not as bad as KKKaroline or Dog Killer GI Joe Cosplay Barbie.

 

[Sawyer]

Because the Superman/Lex sexual tension is off the charts, their son seems inevitable…

Noah Jupe - Superboy/Conner Kent

Probably said a billion times but here's to a billion and one recommendations.

Glenn Powell as Green Arrow

Sydney Sweeny as Black Canary

They're both young and incredibly popular in Hollywood right now.

Bonus: Mikey Maddison as Zatanna

 

[Fincher]

Florence Pugh for Black Canary.

 

[Isub_Zero]

Florence Pugh for Black Canary.

Pugh has enough work at Marvel.

Pugh has enough work at Marvel.

Not really, after Thunderbolts* underperformed. She'll appear in Doomsday and maybe Secret Wars, and she might get other side gigs, but I doubt it'll be too taxing.

 

[Sawyer]

Funny thing came to mind earlier… Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist as The CW’s Flash and Supergirl, Finn Wittrock almost being Guy Gardner a few years back, and now Corenswet is our new Superman.

For all his other faults, what if Ryan Murphy is the tastemaker when it comes to casting DC heroes?

That could give us Glen Powell in some capacity. I think Cooper Koch and Josh Andres Rivera are on their way up, I’m sure we could find something for them somewhere. Billie Lourd too.

But not you, Kim Kardashian. Never you.

 

[Black Narcissus]

WW

 

[Sawyer]

Maybe it’s just that he kind of reminds me of a younger Carl Lumbly, but after seeing Charles Parnell in the newest Mission Impossible, I'm once again pitching him for Martian Manhunter.

Wonder Woman and Ted Kord are dating?!

Wonder Woman and Ted Kord are dating?!

You mean Walliam West?

 

[Jordacar]

I'm not saying she's the best pick we could possibly get, but it would be so strange to see Monica in a DC movie NOT playing WW. Every time I look at her I would keep thinking, "Why aren't you Diana?"

 

[Sawyer]

Did I see Noah Wyle on the premiere red carpet…?

Might just be him being in the Warner Bros family, but my mind is racing.

Monica Barbaro can play Dinah Lance.

That's what a successful HBO Max show gets you.

All that design work to make a functioning man who looks like Glen Powell.

 

[Black Narcissus]

I would not hate this. Not to mention Powells persona would run circles against this Superman.

 

[BobJM]

This looks like a good trinity, IMO

Clark Kent / Superman: David Corenswet
Bruce Wayne / Batman: Glen Powell
Diana / Wonder Woman: Monica Barbaro

I will take this in a heartbeat.

Also! Hotdamn. How do I remove this dude from this picture? Gotta muster up herolee power of ignore.

 

[Sawyer]

If PowellBat were to happen, I would be fine with it, but for the time being I think we can be a bit more adventurous. Strategically, it just doesn’t seem like the best use of someone with his star power to make him the one hero most likely to put asses in the seats regardless.

And honestly, I feel like you should use Powell’s charm to get weird with it. Like so…

An Animal Man project would be cool, but I like Jake McDorman for Buddy. Could be cool as an HBO series
