But Nick Cannon sucks.

There's a big difference between Static and Hulk. Everyone knows who Hulk is. He's as recognizable as Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, and the X-Men. Not everyone in the world reads Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, and X-Men comics, but everyone knows who they are."Nobody could care less about?" Are you sure you're not just projecting your own feelings on the entire movie going audience? I suppose you think that everyone in the world reads Iron Man and Hulk comics? Believe it or not there is a very large percentage of people who go to see superhero movies with no prior knowledge of the aforementioned hero.

There's also a big difference between Static and heroes like Iron Man and Green Lantern. While they aren't as big as Batman, Superman, Hulk, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, and the X-Men, heroes like Iron Man, Captain America, Green Lantern, the Flash, Aquaman, the Fantastic Four, and Thor have certain degrees of recognizablility.
Static on the other hand has no recognition outside of an obscure cartoon and an appearance in Justice League Unlimited.
Rather than wait for Smith's son to come of age. I say go with Nick Cannon.
I don't think brand recognition is an issue in the least. The scope of the production, marketing and word of mouth are the things that sell a movie. If it looks good and the studio bothers to properly market it, people will show up. Just like with 80% of all movies produced.

Yes I do, an I tend to not talk comics to them, despite being a huge comic geek, unless they ask or if I want to act intentionally nerdy. Or just bug them t:Do you ever talk to or hang out with non comic people, cause I do and static is far more reconized or was until the Iornman movie and still is compared to green lanter unless your not talking to the average joe, but a superhero freak or comic reader.
Man I already have the first two movies in written already I want to play Static so bad.
Jaden Smith in a few years. I'm seriously tempted to write a treatment for this.
Hotstreak would definitely be my villain for the origin film, the second would be Ebon and his crew. And, of course the introduction of Gear.
I liked Richie better as a civilian who likes to tinker than a Bang Baby who can invent anything he wants
Richie is like the non-psycho Harry Osbourne to Virgil's Peter Parker. the best friend who knows all about the superhero identity. I like the idea of Richie developing "Enhanced intelligence" due to his indirect exposure to the gas that transformed Virgil, and had saturated his clothes.
That being said, I think it would be okay if he begins as a tinkerer in the 1st movie then in the second movie makes more advance stuff to help static as problems arise. It may be better if he doesn't become Gear and just aids Static in a advisory capacity supplying him with gadgets. I wouldn't want people to look at him as a lower budget version of Iron Man.
A Static Shock movie would be awesome. The animated series was very well done & is one of my favorite animated shows of all time.
Also, how about they get a talented actor to portray Static & not washed up never was beens like Nick Cannon & Lil' JJ?
We were just throwing out names, I'd personally cast a charismatic unknown. There are tons of young actors itching for their big break.
I think they would also need to get Dwayne McDuffie to write the script and make the movie not like The Last Dragon. Yes, I dare to go there. LOL.
I know, but I wanted to point out that both of them are bad actors, and if they got cast, the movie would end up among the ranks of "Steel".
