Casting the DC Universe

Here are my final choices for the Superheroes of the DCU:

Christian Bale as Batman (Height 6'0)



Brandon Routh as Superman (Height 6'3)



Taylor Cole as Wonder Woman (Height 5'9)



Jerry O'Connell as Barry Allen (Height 6'2)



Scott Porter as Wally West (Height 6'0)



Ed Quinn as Martian Manhunter (Height 6'4)



Brendan Fraser as Captain Marvel (Height 6'3)



* While I like Brandon Molale's look also, Fraser has a proven acting range that's perfect for the role.

 

Thomas Jane as Orin



Ryan Reynolds as Green Arrow



Scarlett Johansson as Black Canary



Gerald Butler as Hawkman



Daniel Dae Kim as The Atom



Sophia Bush as Zatanna



Peter Mensah as Red Tornado

 

James Caviezel as Hal Jordan

(Check out the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M5MeOZ9BTQ )



Bradley Cooper as Guy Gardner



Roger Cross as John Stewart



Michael Clark Duncan as Kilowog



Milo Ventimiglia as Kyle Rayner



Missy Peregym as Donna Troy



Jeremy Irons as The Spectre

 

Jonathan Bennett as Nightwing



Derek Luke as Firestorm



Jessica Biel as Hawkgirl



Joesph Gordon Levitt as Blue Beetle



Gaius Charles as Cyborg



Amber Heard as Supergirl



Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Mary Marvel

 

David Boreanaz as Captain Atom



Johnny Knoxville as Plastic Man



Clancy Brown as Doctor Fate



(JSA Big Three is cast with 40-something actors so they can appear at their prime in flashbacks while looking old in the present using makeup)

Mark Valley as Alan Scott



Paul Gross as Jay Garrick



George Eads as Wildcat



Kirsten Bell as Stargirl




More to come ...

Looking forward to see Eddie D, JackBauer and Majic's lists.

 

Alot of great choices here. Sofia Bush , J. Knoxville, Amber Heard, Irons...

Great choices.

 

Chris Noth as Kingdom Come Superman



Henry Simmons as Steel



Gabrielle Union as Vixen



Adrianne Palicki as Starfire (5'11)



Connor Trinneer as Adam Strange



Johnny Depp as The Question

 

Brad Pitt as Jonah Hex.....The all American Pretty boy face, contrasting with the deformed side would be perfect.

Neal McDonough....Has the dashing looks of a leading actor back in the 40s. Thats why I think he should play the leader of The Blackhawk Squadron.

i dig the Clancy Brown/Doc Fate

 

K. Steel. You are a genius. They all match, imo. You should be the casting director for every dc movie from now on. t:

 

Thanks. Here's some DC Comics Villians casting:

Dennis Haysbert as Darkseid



Kevin Spacey as Luthor



Hugo Weaving as Sinestro



Arnold Vosloo as Black Adam



William Fitchner as Brainiac

(Teaser: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diwHgFbK6uw)



Evangeline Lilly as Star Sapphire



More to come..

 

Has Dwayne Johnson officially been cast as Black Adam? I think he'd be great.

 

I like, I like.

Never thought of that, but good choice. He'd be good for a crazy conspiracy theorist.

 

I love how he plays outlandish extreme characters. He could make it as fun as the cartoon version.

 

Awesome character/actor choices all around. Great job

Bradley Cooper as Guy is perfect.

 

Jerry O'Connell? He's a great actor. He's got the right comedic timing and voice [he voiced Captain Marvel in JLU] and has experience in sci-fi from being the star of the show Sliders.

He's got the superhero height at 6'2 and the traditional big, wide devious Flash smile. I was thinking of an actor who could fit the Ross artwork of Barry with the blue eyes and big smile while still having a good sense of comedic timing.

He's right for the Flash as long as singing isnt required

I forgot the tv show he was playing but my problem with him is that even if he can act he look too much like a tv star than anything else and that can be a problem But the rest of your cast is really good!

 

^ How do you look like a TV star?

 

Well maybe its personal. I don't think he s a bad actor. What I meant is that his face constantly remind me of a guy who played on tv every time I see this guy. Now I remember the tv series...It was my ''secret identity''. Maybe your were too young when it aired but I used to watch that show.It was a good show but with cheap special effect. I rather see an unknown actor than him. But that s me of course.

 

Also I would pick Richard Burgi (he played in Hostel 1 &2)as Kingdom Come Superman

 

How do you post a picture that's on my myspace page?

 

a wide devious smile is definitely not something I associate with Barry Allen.

 

ALL GREAT CHOICES imo
