Luke Cage casting call (merged)

[Artistsean]

Oops wrong thread.

 

[Brotha-Man]

I could see Terry Crewes playing Cage. If toned down the foolishness he is used too doing I can see it. He would talk trash and everything, just like Cage. Yeah I could see it.

 

[marcvader]

He's my choice as well. Dude is huge, mean looking, and can do humor if needed.

 

[nausicaa]

Michael K. Williams

 

[Metamorpho1977]

Derek Luke for Luke Cage.

 

[Rich Santoro]

I gotta still go with Terry Crews:

 

[MadVillainy]

I support Tyrese for this role.

 

[Savage]

I really don't see the problem with Tyrese in the role. He's become a very good actor over the years and I can see him pulling off Luke Cage now farless for getting all uber bulked and growing the goatee.

Hell, I can even see Tyrese sportin' the tiara.

 

[WillardNation]

Henry Simmons FTW

 

[javphonic]

I'd have to say either Idris Elba (looks a bit too old for BP) or Henry Simmons, but I'd like to see Shawn Wayans take on a really serious role, as I think he has the look as well... I think if Wayans was serious he could have the Will Smith appeal, comedy meets action

 

[cerealkiller182]

I find it odd that Shawn Wayans is the only Wayans to not try to broaden his horizons especially since hes always kind of the straight man paired with Marlon. Im actually kind of interested to see what he could do, but more so before he takes on a superhero.

 

[QWoods]

I don't know who I would choose.

 

[Wolfman]

Me neither. Henry Simmons is a big guy and a good actor... he would be goood.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Idris Elba. Guy's and immense actor and oozes bad ass.

 

[WolfCypher]

Funny. Will Smith in that HORRIBLE movie Hancock reminded me so much of Luke Cage.

 

[Steve Holt]

actor wise: Jamie Foxx, Anthonie Mackie, Idris Elba, Michael K. Williams

looks wise: terry crews, Columbus short

 

[Captainhulk]

We all know it's going to go to Tyrese, if it ever gets made. I think this project has been forgotten.

 

[Docker2.0]

No we all don't. I actually don't think it will be Tyrese. He plays the same role in every movie he's in: Loud black arrogant black guy who cusses every five minutes. I actually think Terry Crews SCREAMS Luke Cage. He already has the right size and the look. If it was ten years ago, Henry Simmons no doubt but I'm going with Crews.

 

[terry78]

I suspect they may go with Columbus Short. He's still an up and comer as of late, I think Armored gave him a little range.

 

[RockSP]

Wow...Tyrese is the lead in the poll.

 

[Docker2.0]

That's what I'm saying Rock. Who the freak looks at him and says this guy is perfect for the role. He looks nothing like him and isn't that great of an actor. Hell I'd take Andy Dick as Luke Cage over him. ..................I'm serious to.

 

[RockSP]

Andy Dick as Cage, and Tracy Morgan as Iron Fist. Instant Classic.

 

[Docker2.0]

I'm exaggarating but the Tyrese as Cage thing is mind boggling. I don't see why people want this guy as him. I can't stand Tyrese so much that I can honestly say that I wouldn't see the movie in theaters if he's cast.
