Sequels Cast the new movie!

[Johnny Drama]

I think Rihanna has a great look for Storm. I don't know about her acting abilities, but the look is perfect IMO (in a couple years, as I said).

Carrie Underwood can play a character with attitude. Just check out her "Before He Cheats" video. She has a good look for Rogue, and she could probably manage a southern accent.

Maggie Q, I chose because I love her fighting style - I think she'd be great in Mystique's action scenes. Plus, she's a good actress outside the action scenes, as well, especially with dark characters - which, of course, Mystique is.

Rhianna would look like the spitting image of Storm, allthough I am sure she can't act.

 

[ToriL90]

If you dont know they're acting ability, why suggest them? We're talking about a movie not a photoshoot.

Ever heard of a screen test? If you know of someone who has the perfect look for a certain role, but you have no idea what her acting abilities are, there are ways to find out. If it turned out she didn't have the acting skills to pull it off, then of course someone else should be chosen, but I think Rihanna definitely should be considered for the role should they do a reboot down the road.

Besides, this whole topic is fantasy - why not have a little fun with the "what-ifs" and the visuals? I just downloaded some photo manipulation software, and I wanted to show it off a little! lol

Catherine Zeta-Jones as Scarlet Witch:

Have they screen tested for you? Your on a message board, the basic concept of which is too debate/discuss. As far as Rihanna and Carrie Underwood theres absolutely nothing to discuss. They arnt actors. Why find someone with no acting ability because of a passing resemblance when theres plenty of actors who have both look and proven talent. Plenty of people around here have put some actual though into they're casting suggestions.

It may be fantasy and just visuals but they're are actual actors you could have used.

Sorry I thought outside the box and didn't adhere to your casting rules as you'd like. I guess Will Smith, Mark Wahlberg, Queen Latifah, Ice T, Ice Cube, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Trace Atkins, LL Cool J, Mandy Moore, etc. had better get out of the acting business.

Gotcha.

Rihanna wouldnt sound like Storm we would get some weird ass accent. Shesfrom Barbados and already has a thick acccent i doubt she could pull of an african one. We went down that road of she looks the part type casting with Halle Berry and that turned out not so good. If Rihanna wanted to dress up as Strom for halloween i wouldnt be opposed but she is definitely no Storm in my book. I will be posting a reboot of my cast ideas soon.

Why should they get out of the acting business? They have proven themselves to some extent except Mandy Moore. She should definitely get out of the game. How are they similar? Because they were once music performers. These people are also accomplished and experienced actors who must have wowed a casting director, but they arnt going to come to the board and give us one. You might as well have chosen 2 women at random if your going to pick Rihanna or Underwood.

Screw it. I don't care how old the woman is. She looks great, and, after seeing her on ER, I still think Angela Bassett would make an awesome Storm.

Angela is a good choice better than Rihanna thats for damn sure and is probably my second choice, but if push came to shove Gina Torres is more experienced in the Sci-Fi genre and shes pulled off an African accent well enough to make me believe she can do it.

I knew that someone would bash Mandy Moore, lol. They're similar because until they got that first role that made them actors, they were "just musicians," too. Many casting directors have at least a little bit of an open mind in that they allow people who haven't already proven themselves, a chance to prove themselves. Otherwise, the people I listed would have never had a chance to show what turned out to be their greatest talents (you have to admit, at least, that Mandy Moore's acting is better than her singing, lol).

Thats great for casting directors. But you do not have the same situation on a message board, so I cant possibly see how someone could suggest someone without knowing their capabilites.

what do you guys think of my cast list?

Was the undecided necessary?

The bold I agree with 100%

The original casting is good but I have been doing so based on reboot and I doubt any of them would return.

Your Emma, Storm, Kitty, Pyro choices could work, Bishop might.

Walhberg as Banshee is such a crazy choice, and not so crazy it just mioght work kinda way

Why does everyone see Rose Mcgowan as Mystique. She really cant act all that great. Her delivery comes out forced and awkward.

I thought about Shemar but i thought morris Chesnut looked like him a little bit more.

Its funny because it took me a while to come up with Michelle Rodriguez for Callisto. but once you see it it seems so obvious

I dunno. I liked her in Grindhouse. She was badass and sexy. Mytique is bad ass and sexy. I thought she was funny in Grindhouse, with different writing it could come off flirtacious and/or arrogant just like Mystique does.

I thought about Shemar but i thought morris Chesnut looked like him a little bit more.

I dont really like Chestnut that much. HEs pretty good and got a great look for Bishop but so does Shemar and i think hes pretty impressive on Criminal Minds (when I actually catch it)

Its funny because it took me a while to come up with Michelle Rodriguez for Callisto. but once you see it it seems so obvious

She was actually was the name I kept coming back to but was unsure about so I kept looking for a better one but now Im pretty confident in Rodriguez.

Aside from that its just her voice its not deep and alluring enough and i dont think she could pull it off. but meh. i like a majority of your casting though.

[Matt.S99]

I like your choice for Rogue, shes an awesome actress.

 

[Matt.S99]

I liked most of the casting, but if you want a reboot in a couple years, here is my cast:

I'm still working on several haracters, but here are a few:

Marie D'Ancanto/Rogue - Carrie Underwood

Ororo Munroe/Storm - Rihanna

I got a crazy suggestion, how about we cast actual actors? Crazy, I know.







in all seriousness though, no. Carrie could probably work for dazzler or somethin,g nothing else. And maggie would make a much better psylocke, i just couldnt picture an asian actress as mystique.

 

[ToriL90]

You know what? You're probably right. I think I'll find someone else for Mystique. Who do you like for the role?
