Spoiler

theres, supposedly, a Lord of the Rings style opening where the Amazonians, humans and Atlanteans each receive a mother box to protect.

 

[CaptainWagner]

Picked up a few new castings for the Batman Fan Pitch I did over on CBM:

Irrfan Kahn: Ra's al Ghul

Sarah Shahi: Talia al Ghul

Robert Patrick: Jacob Kane

 

[regwec]

Irrfan Khan is a great choice - I think i have suggested him before.

 

[CaptainWagner]

Irrfan Khan is a great choice - I think i have suggested him before.

Great minds think alike!t:

 

[sabetoonth]

I can't get over the idea o Ghassan Massoud as Ra's

 

[John Locke]

They should get Haley Bennett for Ivy, Black Canary, or Batgirl.

 

[Tg11]

Michael Madsen as Harvey Bullock

 

[Luke234]

I don't really want them to do it but it's too bad they couldn't pick and choose from tv. Gotham's Peguin I think is a great creation. I like the guy playing Bullock in Gotham too. Madsen is so fitting. Good call.

 

[Luke234]

Changing Tatum as Hal and Denzel as John Stewart. Tom Hanks made that comment about being a batman villain. I think if he's still interested they'd be crazy to deny Hanks a role. You guys that know comics well would be better than me at giving a guess at who he could be.

 

[Tg11]

Ben Whishaw as Edward Nygma/The Riddler

 

[Luke234]

Charlie Hunnan as others have said for Green Arrow, maybe Tom Hanks could be a Hugo Strange?? You guys may know better. I love DCEU so far and would love to see them land some major stars like: Matt Damon, Matthew McAunahey, Channing Tatum,Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman etc.

 

[Tg11]

Tom Hanks as Hugo Strange works but Bruce Willis hasn't been in the MCU or DCEU so I would cast him in the DCEU as Dr. Victor Fries/Mr. Freeze

 

[David H.]

Bruce Willy as Freeze? No way. It would be as bad as Arnold. He'd be a better Gordon but only with Wes Anderson or Rían Johnson directing.

 

[Luke234]

I wouldn't mind Bruce Willis if years ago but now( just personally) he seems like a caricature of himself. I just see Bruce . I think the same could probably be said for a guy like Tom Cruise but as much as people don't like him because of Scientilogy( I could care less)he seems to never just mail in a performance.

 

[Luke234]

Please disregard if you like, but what dc character( if any) do you think these actors would fit?
Jaquin Phoenix
John Hawkes
Christopher Waltz
Jude Law
Gary Sinise
Ralph Fiennes
Sean Penn
Ed Norton
Ed Harris
Liam Neeson
Dimjon Hounsou
Gerard Butler
Clive Owen
Jean Reno
Javier Bardem
Tom Hardy
Josh Hartnett

 

[Eddie Dean]

Something tells me Liam Neeson would make a good Ra's Al Ghul and Tom Hardy would make a good Bane.

 

[Luke234]

Hehehe

 

[Luke234]

I'd dig josh hartnett as night wing but I don't know if he's believable being an acrobat.

 

[FeedOnATreeFrog]

Please disregard if you like, but what dc character( if any) do you think these actors would fit?

[ManWithNoName18]

Thoughts on Channing Tatum? Gambit has been radio silent for a while, and even the director jumped ship to the DCEU.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Meh, not a fan of Tatum

 

[CaptainWagner]

Tatum NEEDS to be Shazam. He's the best of only a handful of people who could take the part at this point.
