Jeffrey Wright IS Commissioner Gordon

[MovieSlave]

Solid choice.

 

[kguillou]

Gonna miss JK Simmons, he had tremendous potential but Wright is perfect, man. Can totally picture him as a hard boiled Gordon for a film noir like this.

 

[Gee]

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

That is an unexpected but excellent choice.

Batgirl gonna be black yall. The fanboys are going to be MAD. LMAO.

 

[Kane52630]

Zendaya sure is available right about now.

As I said in my previous post he's a solid choice, but all these "perfect" choice comments are mind-boggling.

Not necessarily. They can go the comics route where she's adopted so she can be of any ethnicity.

I was expecting Guy Pearce or someone else, but this is great.

Imagine the Batgirl solo turning around and casting a white redhead after this? lol

She's not blood-related and outright disconnected from any relations too him in some iterations, so it wouldn't be that far-fetched.

Between Joker and this, I think we might have some great bat-filled years ahead of us.

We've always had great Bat filled years. Even during the Schumacher era, we still had multiple movies and the animated series. The problem is we haven't had a good Super-filled year since Smallville, if that even counts.

Totally love this casting!

And nicely called, @Black Narcissus .

I say just make them blood related and cast Alexandra Shipp for it

Or the solo could be a part of the DCEU...

 

[TheGuy]

Blood related Barbara or nay?

So are people finally ready to accept this isn’t a Batfleck prequel?

 

[Arachnerd]

Zendaya sure is available right about now.

Maybe they'll actually let her be a redhead this time.

 

[Boom]

So are people finally ready to accept this isn’t a Batfleck prequel?

People on Reddit are already speculating that this is just an in-universe recast ala Billy Dee Williams > Tommy Lee Jones.

 

[Prettyricky]

If there going with a different race/ color acting choice, I got no issues with him. Ive loved him since boardwalk empire. I wonder though will he have a mustache?

LOL the level of delusion.

What do you guys think about this? I think Wright is the better choice.

Ali would've been great, but nobody in their right mind can complain about getting Wright instead. If it was down to these two, it's as close to a win-win as I've seen.

 

[BatLobster]

Great piece of casting!

Reeves probably casted in mind a black Gordon.
