Casting the DC Universe

[comicfan4Life]

Jason Bateman: Maxwell Lord

Max Martini: Guy Gardner

Jena Malone: Harley Quinn

Isaiah Washington: Black Manta

Brit Morgan: Mera

 

[OptimusPrime114]

Forgive me if I don't think Bateman is the kind of guy to portray someone who went from a man who re-formed the Justice League to a psycho who murdered the Blue Beetle.

Routh is 6'3". He should be Superman(Kal-El/Clark Kent)

He is tall, i do agree though he is my Supes pick

Well he was in his older teenage years before he died and he was still around 5'8, so I doubt it.

If I had to cast Connor though, I'd also keep in mind he starts off like this during his younger years:

ohhh the akward teenage years

That's pretty much why I picked him. You don't expect it from Bateman, like the league didn't expect it from Lord. Just like most didn't expect Wonder Woman to deal with him the way she did. It's about the unexpectedness of it all. When a certain door is opened who knows what will come through.

 

[Donnie Darko]

I agree with comicfan4life. Bateman is a great fit in the Booster Gold/Guy Gardner Justice League era, and I believe he has the range to play the more current Maxwell Lord. He has just spent most of his career in comedy. I'd like to see him be able to branch out.

You agree with me? My god, and people say I'm mad lol! But seriously thanks, it was kind of difficult for me to think of a guy to play Max because I needed someone that could be a natural guy a person could trust, but then turn when you don't expect it. It may kinda be overrated at this point, but Juno was a good example of that.
