Batman Forever (2015)
Dir. Joseph Kahn

With all the Batman remake casts on here (and the Previous Time thread especially), I'm amazed no on thought to take a crack at this one. These picks are pretty much perfect, btw.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Nice recast for Batman Forever.
What tone do you have in mind for it?

They both played d'Artagnan!

And I like both movies.

The funny thing about that is the reaction to Adam Scott would be exactly what the reaction to Keaton was like. 26 years and we haven't learned a damn thing.

 

[Eddie Dean]

I was trying to think of a Keaton-y actor, then I remembered that episode of Parks and Rec and it all came into place.
