Dick Grayson Casting Thread

[Luke234]

If dig Adam driver.

 

[BareYourTeeth]

Jeremy Allen White

 

[Sawyer]

Anyone suggested Sam Claflin?

I feel like he'd bring the right energy to the role.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Sam could be good. He was one of my top pics to play Barry Allen. I also think he'd make a good Hal Jordan.

 

[Babillygunn]

Zac Efron was born for the role.

 

[Sawyer]

I feel like I'd be happier seeing Efron as someone like Booster Gold.

 

[TheVileOne]

Zac Efron was born for the role.

No he wasn't.

 

[Babillygunn]

No he wasn't.

Well then. Why was he born? Hmmmmmm?

 

[Spider-Fan83]

^has no one ever had "the talk" with you

 

[NotFadeAway]

My personal choice for Dick Grayson is Richard Madden, aka Robb Stark from Game Of Thrones.

Problem is, he is better for the Nightwing stage of Grayson's life and I'm still holding out some glimmer of hope that DC will wake up and approach a network like HBO or Showtime to launch a gritty Nightwing show to match Marvel's netflix dealings.

 

[Silvermoth]

Zac Efron was born for the role.

Nah he's a bit too old now. Maybe a few years ago. Taron Edgerton would be a better choice than current era Zac.

And for Booster Gold, James van der Beek. Not even kidding, he would be perfect for the role

I didn't like Kingsmen. But that wasn't Edgertons fault. But it does make it hard for me to want him as Dick.

I could see Vanderbeek as Booster. My all time dream casting for Booster would've been Jason Hervey early 90s, post Wonder Years.

 

[Primal Slayer]

If Chris Wood was a more high profile actor and wasnt cast in Supergirl, he would've made a good Dick.

 

[FeedOnATreeFrog]

Anybody suggest Ben Schnetzer yet? For Dick or Jason?

Sure, he was painfully out of place in Warcraft, but I think the American accent had a lot to do with that. Apparently he's really good in 'Goat'.

 

[Boom]

Adam Driver pls.

 

[David H.]

I dunno, I heard he was busy with some sci-fi movie.

Rami Malek seems to be a popular pick right now. I think he's more of a Jason Todd, though.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Malek is my pick for Todd. Im still down for Finn Wittrock as nightwing. Anna kendrick for batgirl. Logan lerman or ryan potter for tim drake.

Scott. Eastwood.

 

[NotNickFury]

Not a casting name, but just a question for the folks as far as the actual casting age of Robin, whether Dick, Tim Drake, or otherwise: should the film have a younger actor play the role, if possible, or someone who may not look young, but you feel would be good for the role anyway. Consider, Chris O'Donnell was 25 for Batman Forever and in no way looked like a teenager, though not like Batman Forever was looking for a super young ward. Heck, as young as Peter Parker looks now in Civil War, Tom Holland himself is already 20.

I don't mean like Chloe Moretz as Hit Girl young, but someone who could believably pull off a young looking sidekick.

No.

 

[craigaat]

No Driver please

 

[Mandon Knight]

Taron Egerton would be ideal for this...

 

[Abudefduf]

No Driver please

I'll second this. I'm trying to picture Driver wearing the domino mask and... man, he'd look so damn awkward.
Also I think it'd be preferable to cast someone whose facial features are a bit more, um, generic, and not as easily recognizable as Driver's are. If you know what I mean.

Make it a Pearl Harbor reunion ==> Josh Hartnett

 

[Eddie Dean]

Hartnett is almost 40.
