Comedy cast the DC universe

[Silvermoth]

Hi all, I tried this a while ago in the Marvel film forum and it worked out pretty well so here goes.

If they were to make comedies based on your favourite DC universe who would you choose? I mean, it can't be any less of a joke than Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern

So for example: Batman

Batman: Brad Garrett (think of the voice)

Alfred: Eugene Levy

The Joker- Jim Rash (have to get someone from Community in here somewhere)

Barbara Gordon- Katherine Parkinson

 

[Donnie Darko]

I feel like some of the top choices for the characters could also play "comedy" versions of them, such as Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan and Neil Patrick Harris as Barry Allen.

 

[BruceWanner]

John Cleese as Alfred Pennyworth

Will Arnett as the Riddler

Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Robin

Steve Carell as the Penguin (think Burgess Meredith)

Rob Corddry as Lex Luthor

Phillip Baker Hall as Perry White

 

[Silvermoth]

Dayum, Wish I had chosen Noel Fielding (Mighty Boosh) as the Joker now.

 

[ChewyPoodoo]

John Cleese as Alfred Pennyworth

Will Arnett as the Riddler

Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Robin

Steve Carell as the Penguin (think Burgess Meredith)

Rob Corddry as Lex Luthor

Phillip Baker Hall as Perry White

That'd actually be pretty good in a regular batfilm. t:

I posted this in the Batman Reboot thread a while ago...

Paul Rudd - Batman

BJ Novak - Robin

Bill Murray - Alfred Pennyworth

Craig Robinson - Lucius Fox

Nick Offerman - Jim Gordon

Will Arnett - The Joker

Patton Oswalt - Oswalt Cobblepot

Larry David - Hugo Strange

And if you want to go Arrested Development style -

Jason Bateman as Batman
Michael Cera as Robin
Jeffrey Tambour as Alfred
David Cross as Gordon
Will Arnett as The Joker
Tony Hale as The Riddler
Portia de Rossi as Catwoman
Alia Shawkat as Batgirl
Jessica Walker as Leslie Thompkins
Carl Weathers as Lucius Fox
Tom Jane as Two-Face (I just want my face back!)

Imagine this done during mid-to-late 80s, when there was many popular film comedy stars in the business at the same time: Chevy Chase, Steve Martin, Rick Moranis, John Candy, Martin Short, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Eddie Murphy, Gene Wilder, Richard Pryor, Dudley Moore, Harold Ramis, Michael J Fox... and even Tom Hanks.

Nick Offerman as Gordon is full of win.

Might move away from Batman for a moment...

Wonder Woman- Tina Fey

Circe- Debra Messing

Etta- Melissa McCarthy (most obvious casting ever)
