Oh I’m feeling it…

Margot's gonna be a tough act to follow, but those of you that haven't seen her in action, I'm telling you Victoria is a whole 'nother breed.

I’ve seen some folks holding onto the idea that Harley is still in Margot’s hands, but I think there’s just too much DCEU baggage on her end. Her Batman is out. Her Joker is definitely out. I have to imagine Gunn opts to start fresh with Harley too.

Batman
Brandon Sklenar
Charlie Vickers
Colin Woodell
Cosmo Jarvis
Ethan Peck
Nate Mann
Tom Brittney

Viola Davis was in 2016's Suicide Squad and Black Adam, Harcourt was in both Black Adam and Shazam 2, alongside Economos. I don't see why he'd recast. It will just create another canon/not canon confusing discourse. I'll be James Gunn, I'll try to keep things as tight as I can.

 

[Boom]

Age be damned.

 

[FrankenCastle]

Jacob Elordi as Nightwing, Will Poulter as Red Hood, and make Dynamic Duo DCU canon.

If we’re just keeping TSS canon, that shouldn’t be an issue.

If Calendar Man can come back as Max Lord and T.D.K. as Green Lantern, I'm sure anything is possible.

 

[Sawyer]

Into it.

 

[Jordacar]

I'd be down to see Jacob take over Shazam

 

[Lithium]

Tillman, Sessa, Arjona, Corenswet, Bateman, Merced, Pierre

Idk if Cara Delevigne is still playing at an acting career, but after the Enchantress mention on Peacemaker, I’m pitching Olivia Cooke for the role. I think she can balance the meek human and the sorceress.

 

[Isub_Zero]

Cara Delevigne is still acting. Regularly. But i don't think Gunn will bring her back for Enchantress, if they'll use the character in the DCU. Her role would, probably, be recast.

 

[Sawyer]

I’ve long thought Shawn Hatosy had a Gotham City face and the Emmy win just adds to his cache.

Reeves Crime Saga, DCU… GCPD, organized crime, Joe Chill, idgaf. Just make it happen.

This narrows down the casting pool.

Big arms only.

 

[Boom]

Never ceases to amaze me how reliant fans have become on AI "art" that completely changes the actor's face.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Cara as really good in Carnival Row but I have no interest in seeing Enchantress again. I’m not really sure why Gunn decided to remind everyone that the first Suicide Squad movie exists.

I heard Mister Miracle has this on his Bumble account.

Probably less about reminding folks about the movie and more about taking any opportunity to shout-out a key player from the Ostrander run.

Also not inconceivable that he might have been foreshadowing a new Creature Commandos recruit.

IF Margot is out! My top three choices which make sense for different reasons:

Margaret Qualley
Mia Goth
Sydney Sweeney

I do kinda feel like Gunn wants to kinda save money. Don’t ask me why, not calling him cheap or whatever, but recasting Margot at this point makes sense. She is simply too expensive and needs full control at this point.

Eh, save this post. If we get a new HQ it be one of these three. I’d bet bald @Sawyer ‘s toupee on it. Clock it! You can rub my neck like a pregnant woman on Pedro Pascal, while doing promo type of thang.

I enjoy Sweeney being unhinged on Euphoria as much as the next extremely online gay, but I’m not sure I see Harley there.

She's got great jeans, Sawyer. Everybody says so. Professors even.

Love the Lucy Boynton pick. Plus she’s worked with Corenswet multiple times before! Though I doubt Harley would have many scenes with Superman (if any).

Then again, she also has had great chemistry with Will Poulter, who is one of my dark horse picks for Batman (or Joker).
