The Dark Knight Harvey Dent/Two-Face Casting Thread

[Ronny Shade]

Good manip. Not too crazy about the casting choice, though.

What he said. Really like the manip.

 

[StorminNorman]

I agree with Mr. Shade and Mr. Nasti

 

[Mr. Socko]

Well i made this Dylan Walsh Manip of TwoFace. You may know him from the FX Network series, Nip/Tuck...

What do you guys think? I want to do other Characters as well.

I too love the manip but not the actor.

I agree.

So it's settled. Let's get 7alex to do a manip of Schreiber or Pheonix.


I'd like to see a Dougray Scott manip, but I'm too busy and not skilled enough to make a good one.

I thought the guy that made the Liev Schreiber Manip was incredible. I wish i had the PSD file he made. It was an amazing attempt and the studio should seriously look at that picture if they are going to cast Liev Schreiber as Twoface. What i liked about it was that it wasn't exaggerated like the previous Twoface in Batman Forever. Anyway the Batman movies now are made to seem more real and not fake. Thats exactly why they didn't have ScareCrow dressed up or non of that. I thought it would have been stupid anyway, and it would have probley made the movie seem kinda childish. The new Batman series kinda reminds me of a mobster style movie. As far as the Joker goes... I think they should just have the make up on him and give him like a normal coat outfit. I say forget the purple suit, then again im the type of person that thinks Batman should be rated R.

People who i think should play Two-Face by ranking of favorite are the following...

1. Liev Schreiber (of course)
2. Mickey Rourke http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&q=Mickey+Rourke&btnG=Search
3. Clive Owen http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&lr=&q=Clive Owen&sa=N&tab=wi
4. Marton Csokas http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&q=Marton+Csokas
5. Michael Douglas http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&q=Michael+Douglas&btnG=Search
6. Jeremy Irons http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&q=Jeremy+Irons

If black then... Laurence Fishburne or Denzel Washington

Personally, I believe that Twoface needs to be played by an oldish looking actor. Liev, my number one choice is as young as it gets. I don't really know if Clive is younger but yeah, those i believe make a good selection of people they need to be looking into for the final casting of twoface.

Edit: Off-topic... As far as The Joker goes, i believe he should be played by either, Paul Bettany OR Steven Weber. <--- If you think this guy would make an undecent Joker, then you obviously have not seen The Shining (Remake). He can completly zone out to Psycho land and he goes extremely crazy which i think is how the Joker should be. When i hear and imagen the Jokers character, i just see Steven Weber's acting in the Shining. Now thats how my ideal Joker would be like.

http://imdb.com/title/tt0468569/board/nest/40257510 <---- He took the words right out of me. Sorry for making you guys read so much.

 

[Ronny Shade]

I don't particularly share the opinion that Dent should be old.

But I garauntee if you make a manip of Schreiber as good as that Dylan Walsh one, people will be saying your name for months around here.

 

[StorminNorman]

I think that a youthfull Harvey Dent could add a lot to the character, which is why I had no problem when the Gyllenhaal for Dent rumors came up a few months ago. It would add to Harvey Dent's feel to need to prove himself...

 

[Ronny Shade]

I feel Gyllenhaal is too youthful. I think Harvey should be between 30 and 40

 

[StorminNorman]

Well the average age for a DA in New York city is 28 - its a job that wears a man down. I think Gyllenhaal can look very mature if the character needs to be - and I belive the BB crew would go that route. Gyllenhaal's youthfullness would give this Harvey a swagger which would work well with the character.

Of course Liev is the man...

...Aaaaaaaaaaaand it is now official. I don't have to post in this thread.

 

[StorminNorman]

Of course Keyser...you know I got your back.....and you mind.

 

[Ronny Shade]

28? Really.

Still Actors like Gyllenhall usually play younger. He could easily do a college freshman right now.

I say get somebody Bale's age or a little older.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Sewell for Dent.

 

[StorminNorman]

Gyllenhaal could play a college student...or he could also play a 28 year old DA -

I think he looks more mature in that pick that a college student.

Gyllenhaal has range though - after all, he went from psyco Marine to Gay Cowboy. I think he is a find actor and would do great justice to Harvey.

Again, Liev is still the man.

 

[Ronny Shade]

Gyllenhaal could probably rock, no doubt. It's just his voice makes him seem pretty young.

 

[StorminNorman]

No doubt he would certainly be a young Harvey Dent...I was just annoyed with people stating that he would be horrible and ruin the movie...

 

[Ronny Shade]

no, not at all.

 

[Keyser Sushi]

We are as one voice.

 

[StorminNorman]

E Plurisus Unim?

 

[Eddie Dean]

I don't see Gyllenhaal as Dent, maybe as a younger Riddler, but not Dent.

Sewell for Dent.

Okay, you keep saying Sewell, and no one acknowledges it. Here's why I don't: I don't know him. I can't gauge him so I've been not saying anything. What's he in?
