Luke Cage casting call (merged)

[Diamondhead]

Easily the top choice...Erkel.

LOL…Why not
It is a free minded country after all

 

[Diamondhead]

Alot of you suckers on here talk about this role jokingly.
Christopher Judge ( Teal'c ) could play Luke Cage with no problem.
If you ever watch Stargate Sg1 you will know he is a very good
actor and has that stage presence we are looking for.
Also I don't see nobody joking who's going to play the Captain America part or Thor part.

Too nice looking in my view
Beside I was the first guy to have proposed him in other thread like this
But Michael jai White was never on my mind before.
Now it's Michael Jai white all the way.

 

[Ullic]

What about that guy who plays Tyr on Andromeda? (sci-fi TV show with the Hercules dude) I have no idea what his name actually is but I think he would make a good Luke Cage.

Oh...and I hope they don't go with the "Power Man" moniker...

looks more like Martian Manhunter to me.

I still think he'd make a better villian in a Cage film than Luke Cage himself.

Your not talking about the Dude with the English Accent are you.

 

[Hypestyle]

hopefully there will be vast feats of strength in the flick..

he's talking about Keith Hamilton Cobb. i think the actor would be better suited to playing someone like Killmonger myself.

I still think he'd make a better villian in a Cage film than Luke Cage himself.

like the Cage villain, "Big Brother?" or maybe Bushmaster.

 

[Metamorpho1977]

Derek Luke is Luke Cage

He'd make a helluva good Black Panther too.

He'd make a helluva good Black Panther but not Luke Cage. He's not even six feet and beyond that just doesn't look like the character of Luke Cage that I've ever seen drawn other than being a black guy. And I just don't think he'd look good as Luke Cage. He attained probably his max physical shape for Friday Night Lights. He was playing a character who in real life was even bigger. But suffice to say I think Luke Cage needs to be someone who's naturally bigger and taller than the averge person. And can film some of the movie, then break for several months, and put on a bunch of muscle to a level where they're at their max muscle capacity. Derek wouldn't work for that in my opinion.

Again, he's an amazing specimen in Friday Night Lights, but the kind of height and shape and thickness that's perfect for BP, not LC

 

[ABC]

^ yeah he'd make a great Black Panther.

Mike White all the way.

 

[Muze]

i think he'd be awful as black panther and luke cage. looks more like a potential Falcon (in a cap movie) to me.

 

[Hypestyle]

hmmm..

at last, Cage's origin is getting a slight update, in Black Panther #11.. nothing essential's changed, but the Classic Look of the afro, headband and disco outfit look like they're outta here..

 

[Ben Troupe]

Vin Diesel, LL Cool J, and that's 'bout it.

 

[Ronny Shade]

Bernie Mac

 

[ShadowBoxing]

I like the idea of Vingh Rames. He does not quiet look like him but he has the attitude.

 

[Ronny Shade]

How about Ice Cube?

 

[Antonello Blueberry]

Did anyone already mention Brian J. White?

[BT18]

maybe he could play Luke Cage's stunt ass

 

[omegaman10]

How about the dude who plays Ecko on Lost?

 

[metroILman]

Here's someone I didn't think about until I was watching "The Longest Yard"
remake with Adam Sandler and Chris Rock...TERRY CREWS. He was "Cheeseburger Eddie" and is currently seen as Rock's dad in "Everybody Hates Chris" on UPN. He's a former NFL player who's tall, big and CUT! Go rent TLY and see for yourself and you'll become a believer too.

 

[BT18]

Terry Crews and Ecko-guy don't have 'leading men' faces. Sorry but that's how it works. Neither of them are traditionally handsome enough in my opinion.

 

[The Phantom]

Nah, after seeing Terry Crews get his nuts twisted with a nut-cracker in Friday After Next, I don't think I can him in a manly role ever again.

 

[RockSP]

I abhor the idea of LL as Luke Cage. He'd simply play himself.

Indeed. LL can't act...

 

[IcEmAn56]

Indeed. LL can't act...

LOL

but it seriously should be him or Crews
