Iron Man IRONMAN Casting Thread [merged-15]

Pearce DAME IT!

If any one has a problem with his acting, then you should see Memento, Two Brothers, L.A Confidential.

 

What?! They cross-dress? What's that got to do with Iron Man?

 

So, Thats acting. Does it matter anyway

 

Dominic West, he's a good actor, he can play the drunk playboy and could also play a hero type role, he is also funny.

 

Well now that IGN has found out some more about who will be in the film, who should play Ton Stark, Jim Rhodes,Bethany Cabe & Howard Stark.
Marvel has said they will be courting a major Hollywood actor,maybe Jude Law would be good in that role, as for Howard Stark they may want another big name to play his father.
It's great to see that these characters will be included in the film.

 

I doubt Law would want to do another hero type role.
Not right after Sky Captain.

 

I think it should be Tom Cruise, he did a good "Tony Stark" in Vanilla Sky

 

They're saying Cruise'll be too busy to do it.

 

tom cruise practrically has the role because he says he wants to play iron man.

 

crusie is rich enough to make time to film iron man

 

What?!
Rich enough to make time?
I'm afraid it doesn't work like that.

 

I hope your right but i read that he couldn't do it b/c they wan't to start filming in early 2005(march-ish i think) and TC is starting Mi3 in June but as i said before i hope you are right.

 

that doesnt make much sense. forget cruise, sutherland is the man

 

Collin Farrel....bacause i think he looks great in Alexander and qwould play Tony Stark well....but my first choice would be Tom Cruise but that'll never happen

 

Out of those I like Crudup, but I think James Caveziel would be a better choice.

 

If they go for a named actor I think Crudup would do the best job of this bunch. Farrell would be o.k. if he was not already bullseye. If they went for a slight unknow to spend more money on effects I would like to see Dominic West. Ioan Gruffudd would have been my first choice if he was not Reed Richards.

 

Watched Minority Report last night. God, Cruise'd be perfect...*sob*

 

David Goyer is not connected to this film but he thinks Crudup would make a good Stark. His other choice is odd. Leo

 

Y'know what? I saw a trailer for The Aviator the other night and thought "he might be pretty good".

*beats head with hammer*

Bad thoughts...bad!

 

I know at the moment Tom Cruise seem's out of the running for IM but lets face it he could quite easily postpone Mi3 till 2007 if he wanted,He is the producer and biggest star in hollywood.What made me start to consider the Tc option again is that if you look at his track record the only sequel he has ever made is Mi2,my point being that he usually likes to take on a fresh challenge so don't be surprised if it suddenly is announced that cruise has put Mi3 back another year and is doing IM.I hope cruise does do it b/c if he does he'll be doing it for the right reasons(love of the material) and not just a good paycheck b/c lets be honest cruise only needs to do films he really cares about and i don't think any actor today aproaches material with the same passion,enthusiasm and respect as cruise plus he guarentees the big budget needed for the VFX.

 

We can but hope.

 

Cruise already played a d**n good Tony Stark in Vanilla Sky, so they should not make Iron Man without him

 

Good point.

 

Dylan Dammit!

 

And still Crudup is in the lead.
