DC Television His Moment Has Arrived… BOOSTER GOLD!

[Sawyer]

Is there literally any reason people would think it’s going to be him besides his hair color?

 

[Sawyer]

Considering the Jody Hill rumor awhile back, I wouldn’t be surprised. Given their track record with TV series, it would be a huge win.

 

[Invader Joker]

Andy Samberg for Booster Gold.

 

[emielaen]

Would be a pretty perfect creative fit. Plus Gunn is already cool with Jody Hill. Would love to see it.

 

[Karelia]

I'm gonna say Michael Rossnbaum. Dude can play comedic characters, and is a pretty good friend of James Gunn. Plus, he gets to keep his hair lol. Rosenbaum is in his early 50s now, but I guess it kinda fits with an older, well established DCU. But I'm down for whoever haha.

Glad we got some BG updates though! I really became familiar with the character through the JLU episode + Smallville appearance.

 

[LifesEnd]

If he was up for doing it i think Glen Powell would be the perfect choice for this.

I like him as BG! Or even Hal Jordan honestly, haha. He's a little younger than they are looking for with Hal, though.

 

[TheVileOne]

Danny McBride as Booster Gold?

Glen Powell already said he has no interest in superhero stuff other than Batman.

I saw he wasn't interested in Marvel, didn't notice he said superhero stuff altogether. Oh well lol.

 

[Sawyer]

Danny McBride as Booster Gold?

I’m more intrigued by the likelihood of there being a Walton Goggins role in there somewhere.

Walt Goggins can play Black Beetle or Rex Hunter.

As long as he was used more than Marvel used him in Ant Man and the Wasp.

 

[Sawyer]

Mac was on The Righteous Gemstones, you know…

 

[Adrian Chase]

Are the news true?

 

[Karelia]

Gunn hasn't confirmed the casting, so I'll believe it when he reports it. If it is... idk, have to see how it plays out.

 

[Karelia]

This kinda clears up possibly the casting rumor, maybe? Haha.

 

[emielaen]

Maybe. I think BG could be in Peacemaker tho so who knows. It’d be an Alcock in Superman situation.

Either way, I don’t think he needs to confirm or deny everything. Just let things play out.

That's true. I could definitely see BG being in Peacemaker! I don't hate the casting choice if he is BG, but he is just not who popped in my head when thinking of the character. But I can see it working!

 

[Pennywise]

Still, take with a grain of salt.

 

[Karelia]

The casting is growing on me, if it's true. I'm still waiting on Gunn to confirm this though lol.

 

[SwordOfMorning]

Happy to have some diversity in the DCU but Kumail’s screen presence is pretty annoying and his disfigured steroid warped Joe Rogan skull is super off putting.

 

[Sawyer]

If all the rumors prove true, Kumail starring with material written by McBride and co. should be an interesting combo.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

I could see his Gold Booster with the original (Ted Kord) Blue Beetle

but, he seems like an odd pairing with Xolo Mariduena's Blue Beetle (Jaime Reyes)

 

[Karelia]

Should we take Gunn's silence as confirmation at this point? Haha.
