Foxx isn't a bad idea, although I would prefer Rock. The main issue with John or Kyle is that WB gets a big-name actor to compensate for John or Kyle's lack of exposure. I think there are only a few actors who could do that.
Ha. I was kidding about the Tarantino thing.
Can you imagine, " Say 'In brightest day again' mother ****er, I dare you,
I double dare you !"
Yeah, Jamie Foxx would be a good John Stewart (well he looks the part
way more than Electro). I'm coming to the conclusion that the Rock will get the role, and I'm getting used to the idea ( for those who don't know the Rock's mom is Samoan, and his dad is Afro-Canadian).
Truthfully, if it raises the profile of GL in the public eye, and makes enough money to ensure some GL films I'm cool with that.
( you know, the ensemble cast films really work, especially in the sci-fi and action genre, e.g. Avengers. As such, I still reckon a GL ensemble film, with the Rock as part of the main cast would be DC's best bet. But that's just IMO )
Still, the big casting question is Hal. I'm still keen on Fillion.
But the thought suddenly occurred to me (was watching the Mummy yesterday) that Brendan Fraser, could probably pull it off.
I reckon he at least would be a better Hal Jordan than Ryan Reynolds.
Personally, I always think of Hal as a little bit older - just because he's an officer in the air force, something that makes you grow up a bit, (think he's a Captain, although maybe a major. He's a bit hot-headed, stubborn and immature at times, but I've never thought of him as a young man.
Back in the 80's he might have even been a Colonel, but I lost track, loved that 80's Gil Kane artwork).
However it happens, I'm looking forward to GL's next appearance on film.
