Commissioner Gordon Casting Thread

[Tg11]

Kiefer Sutherland as Gordon gets my vote

 

[Deck Rickard]

Just finished the last season of True Detective. Stephen Dorff would make a great Jim Gordon.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Well, there's the "who's had a mustache & played a cop recently?" stuff again.

Don't mind the idea of Dorff though, cool actor. He's probably not quite "noble/good" enough a presence for Gordon though.

 

[Deck Rickard]

He didn't have a mustache in TD. Yeah, he was playing a cop, but so has damn near every male actor mentioned on this board.

 

[Invader Joker]

... Andy Serkis? We know Reeves is gonna cast him as someone in the movie. Who that someone is we have no idea.

 

[David H.]

 

[Whatupman]

Stephen Dorff as Gordon? Nah, he should be Wolverine

 

[Aximili86]

Crap, Dorff as Logan's actually an awesome thought.

 

[Whatupman]

Marvel would probably consider Dorff to be too old for Logan, but eh, I think Logan should look a little bit older, like he's seen hell multiple times. Jackman felt more like Logan the older he got.

Look, I know this thread isn’t some beacon of lateral thinking but for some reason slotting Serkis down in another mo-cap role simply for the sake of its precedent feels... lame.

 

[Invader Joker]

Ethan Hawke: superhero movies are overrated

Well, we can scratch him off the list.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Eh, Mark Maron said something similar and he’s in the Joker movie. Kind of a shame though because he looks like a perfect Jim Gordon!

 

[Boom]

I'd still ask him if he's interested, only because:

 

[Deck Rickard]

LOL.I forgot that movie existed. Is it as good as it looks?

 

[David H.]

Just get Antoine Fuqua to tell him it’s a good role for him.

 

[Eddie Dean]

 

[Deck Rickard]

Lol perfect

 

[Tg11]

Or how about Sean Penn as Gordon

 

[thebatfan5194]

Sterling K Brown to mix it up?

 

[David H.]

40 something actor with experience in playing law enforcement types, is often seen wearing glasses and who exudes an overall friendly, though authoritative vibe?

Way to mix it up.

Spoiler

He’d be good though. My 2nd choice behind Hawke.

 

[Invader Joker]

He would've been an amazing Batman but.. Michael Fassbender?

I meant in the obvious race change as a way to "mix things up" while still having an actor who would be a good fit with the character in terms of his acting ability/vibe.
