The Dark Knight Rises Casting Call (All Villains)

[American_Idiot]

I've seen separate threads for the casting of individual villains and/or villains who haven't been used in the prior Batman films, but how about a thread where we list any and every villain and who you'd like to see play them in one thread... Assuming this Bat-franchise goes on as long as the Bond series, cast any villain you'd like from A-list villains such as the Joker and Two-Face to obscure villains such as Abbatoir and Steeljacket.

Here's my ideal cast for future Bat-villains...

Brilliant, inspired casting!

 

[Matis17]

I agree. Not a single one that I can dissagree with stongly.

 

[I_believe_you]

I've never thought of Jason Lee as the Joker. I think that could work.

 

[Salemdog]

Strong disagreement with Pressley. I thought we wanted actors, not B-movie late-night Cinemax poptarts. Better off with a Blaylock

Still think Liev Schreiber for Dent. But thinks Pierce is great.

Doesn't Paul Giamatti look more like Gear head in that pic?

And I'll have to go against everyone's easy choice for Catwoman. Still believe she'll be passed over.

I Officially declare this the 99,000,000,000th "Cast all the villains" thread. It's about the fifth to have a picture comparison thing in the first post.






I'll do mine in the morning.

It's been a while...what about KGBeast? Wasn't he any good as a villain? Like I said..been a while.

Jaime Pressly is more than a B-movie late-night Cinemax poptart. She has talent, and the role of Poison Ivy does not require someone of Julia Roberts calibur; just an actress with a beautiful bod/face who knows how to make the male audience members begin to sweat under their collars (which Pressly has down). Her face (the chin-line, the eyes, etc.) IS Poison Ivy, and her body is flawless. True, she has been in some pretty lame (late-night) movies/TV shows, but this could be her moment to shine. I am confident that she would nail the part if she were to get it.

Thanks to those who complimented my casting ideas; I have a few more I'll be posting soon.

Here are some more of my casting choices...

Let me know what you think.

 

[Joker!]

Those are fantastic choices

 

[Brian2887]

Not bad choices at all. But, I might as well throw in my two cents.

The Joker - Jude Law (Road to Perdition)

Harvey Dent / Two Face - Peter Sarsgaard (Shattered Glass)

Harley Quinn - Britanny Murphy (Sin City)

Selina Kyle / Catwoman - Rachel Weisz (CONfidence)

Oswald Cobblepot / Penguin - Bob Hoskins (Unleashed)

Talia Al Ghul - Mia Maestro (Alias)

 

[Brian2887]

Ed Nigma / Riddler - Kevin Pollak (The Usual Suspects)

Mr. Freeze - Ed Harris (The Rock)

Pam Isley / Poison Ivy - Julianne Moore (Boogie Nights)

Ventriloquist - Rick Moranis (Ghost Busters)

Mad Hatter - Martin Short (Law and Order: SVU)

Bane - Dalip Singh (The Longest Yard)

 

[American_Idiot]

Thanks Joker!

Nice choices as well Brian; I really like the Bob Hoskins for Penguin idea!

 

[JMadisonIV]

Martin Short IS The Mad Hatter.

there can be no other choice there.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Tim Roth as The Joker

Liev Shrieber as Two-Face

Christopher Lloyd- Mr. Freeze

Kate Beckinsale- Talia Al Ghul

David Suchet- Penguin

Allison Munn- Poison Ivy

Birttany Murphy- Harley Quin

 

[cerealkiller182]

Hugo Weaving- The RIddler

Vin Diesel- Killer Croc

Paul Sorvino- Rupert THorne

 

[Spider-Dean]

all very cool but Ed Harris as Freeze takes the buscuit, thats inspired that is.

 

[Muze]

i'm going with Cole Hauser as Harvey Dent/Two-Face. he looks a little more aggressive (like he could snap on you) than Liev Schrieber; stronger chin. he's also about the same age as Bale and has the raspy voice from the cartoon.http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/1007/Events/1007/mcg2?path=pgallery&path_key=Hauser,%20Cole

[Donnie Darko]

Cole Hauser is the man.

 

[TheJuice]

Ian Tracey as Two Face

Colm Feore as Mr. Freeze

 

[Everett]

Hugo Weaving- The RIddler

Vin Diesel- Killer Croc

Paul Sorvino- Rupert THorne

hugo weaving as the riddler is perfect

 

[American_Idiot]

Yep. Hugo Weaving would make a good Riddler and/or Mr. Freeze as well. I like everyones casting choices so far. Keep it up!

 

[Backdrifter]

 

[Muze]

isn't that how he regularly looks?

 

[TheJuice]

I think a problem people might notice, if Crispin were to become Joker, is that his voice is very quivery. It's almost rather nervous sounding.
