It's funny how suggesting Robert Pattinson for the role of Travis Bickle would have been a surefire argument starter on the internet ten years ago. How times have changed.

Solid cast. Except that, spry though he may be, Harrison Ford is about 15 years too old for the role. Clint's character was obviously meant to be no spring chicken, but I think he was more around the age of present day Kevin Bacon or Viggo Mortensen.

Yea, I was trying to think of someone who had an equivalent "aging screen icon" persona to Clint Eastwood, and he was the closest one I could think of.

It is a little hard to picture him doing some action scenes like the rooftop chase though.

The hardest one was trying to think of someone to play Mitch Leary.

 

[MilkmanDan]

Well, Christian Bale is a great pick.

 

[Schlosser85]

Well, Christian Bale is a great pick.

Thanks, I was kind of proud of that one. It felt like outside-the-box casting.

What pic did you choose for Lerman? I can't see it

 

[Schlosser85]

What pic did you choose for Lerman? I can't see it

Fixed it. Figured one where he’s frantically running would be appropriate.

Yeah, posted that last year, before all the drama s*** hit the ***s!
Although she still works for the gag.
