I hadn't really given much thought to the casting of a new Alfred til' now, but I gotta say...you guys have made some really GREAT suggestions in this thread... Timothy Dalton, Alan Rickman, Charles Dance or Liam Cunningham would all be excellent picks.

 

[Sawyer]

Liam Cunningham is cool and all, but there's an 11 year age difference between him and Affleck.

I'd be totally on board with Hurt or Rickman.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Anyone from the HP films to play old Alfred is old Dumbledore

 

[antsman41]

Will we actually get a pencil thin mustache wearing Alfred in live action?

 

[Rodrigo90]

Depends on how close they want Alfred to look from the comics.

And also it would depend on if the actor chosen would suit a tache like that.

charles dance

Bens a big guy need an alfred that doesnt look like a hobbit next to him.

 

[Supernewbie]

Geoffrey Rush (62 years old, 6'0)

He's not English, but he's a great actor, earned some Academy Awards, can bring the gravitas.

 

[Boom]

Dance is my number one choice.

Looks the part, great voice, sharp wit, and oozes charisma.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Snyder stays close as hell to the looks of the comics, so I really feel that we will get the pencil-stached Alfred.

 

[Malcolm Reynold]

My top 6...

Mark Gatiss
Michael Palin
Tom Courtenay
Peter Capaldi
Charles Dance
Bill Nighy

I had never thought of Mark Gatiss before but I like it. Possibly a bit too young though. And I like the idea of Capaldi but he will probably be too busy with Doctor Who.

My top 3:
1. Anthony Head
2. Bill Nighy
3. Timothy Dalton

 

[TheAQU4M4N]

My top pick is John Hurt.

 

[Project862006]

Capaldi!!

 

[Sawyer]

This place is running far too low on Capaldi gifs.

 

[Doctor Who]

Capaldi!!

You can imagine my enthusiasm with him right now. t:

Ian McDiarmid isn't TOO old for Alfie, is he?

[Lily Adler]

Wes Bentley.

 

[Doctor Who]

Wes Bentley.

Directed by Joel Schumacher.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Wes Bentley.

Watchyourmouth.

 

[SingItWithMeNow]

this guy

 

[Julio Alejandro]

this guy

That was my first choice.

 

[747]

Alan Rickman is my personal favorite choice at the moment!

 

[Rodrigo90]

Love him, but he's my least favourite choice.

I when I imagine him talking Michael Caine's lines or Gough's!
