BvS The Barry Allen/Flash Casting Thread

[Rorschach2012]

I think Barry will be in the spin-off.

Confused

I was saying that based on recent rumors that Iris Allen is going to be black in the CW Flash show, that'd mean her nephew Wally/Kid Flash, would most likely be black too. Barry will definitely be in the spin off, that's why he's being introduced in Arrow

 

[Kevin Smith]

didja hear that Iris is Barry's black step-sister in the show?

You mean Barry's black psychologist step-sister, sure did.

Gonna vom again.

Same TV wisdom that said the Hulk had to be called David and not Bruce because Bruce sounded "gay". TV wisdom's been at it's finest again a lot lately.

 

[Dr. Remy Lebeau]

What about Saywer?

 

[Kevin Smith]

This is what the Flash looks like. I don't think these rumors are true, especially in regard to this character.

That's what Kid Flash looks like, but I'll even take him over these current rumors. Anything will be better than them.

This is what the REAL Flash looks like:

 

[Rorschach2012]

kevin- what'd you think of gustin? I wasn't impressed

I wasn't disappointed either, i just wasn't particularly blown away.

I wouldn't mind James Franco playing Barry

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

What about Saywer?

I can see it. Although he's a little old, but they have an older Batman so why not an older Flash!

 

[D.P.]

I like the Finnick guy from Hunger Games.

I also like Alex Petty whatever his name is.

The rest of these picks are kind of unrealistic fan castings.

 

[craigdbfan]

D.P I was thinking Sam Claflin for Allen too.

 

[DaJanksta]

I'd love to see Evan Peters. That dude showed good range on the first few seasons of American horror story.

I'd love to see Evan Peters. That dude showed good range on the first fee seasons of American horror story.

not sure if you did that thing there.

 

[D.P.]

Definitely.

He's awesome, I don't think his look jives with Barry at all though.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

there also that thing where he's going to be quicksilver in dofp

 

[bapi]

Zach Braff

 

[DaJanksta]

Definitely.

I think he could with shorter hair

 

[Dr. Remy Lebeau]

I can see it. Although he's a little old, but they have an older Batman so why not an older Flash!

That was my thinking as well!

 

[Rowsdower!]

Zach Braff

Is that just a bad picture as a Braff aged rapidly in the last few years? Yeesh.

 

[Black Narcissus]

The more interesting Flash looks like this. Barry is blond, either way he is not hispanic.

This may surprise you, but white-blond hispanics exist.

 

[Bangarang]

Yeah, Flash just needs to be fast, not real muscular. But again, he'd have months to add muscle on if need be. and he has the height. However, I don't know if they'd really bring him into the films.

Pulling out my nerd/fan card here but Flash does in fact need to be fairly muscular. Everything in his body is accelerated, such as his bodies ability to heal. I know this will seem random but I have a point; the reasoning behind Wolverine being so physically perfect is that his muscles heal at an accelerated rate so that they are the very least the peak of human conditioning/muscularity/strength. If in fact Flash has accelerated healing, which he does, then they should both be the same physically. I will accept that because his metabolism is also accelerated that is incredibly difficult for Barry to keep on size however so he would look very lean at all times.
tl;dr Flash has accelerated healing, therefore peak physicality. Should at the very least be very lean with some size on him.

 

[batman44]

For Flash I like Mike Vogel, Scott Porter,and Patrick Wilson.

Steve Cook is the ideal physique for Barry imo, maybe a tad less mass just due to his metabolism but very close. Sadly I know an actor would never be able to achieve this kind of conditioning.

 

[Castro]

I hope he's not latino and i am pretty big with wanting to see good latino actors in big blockbusters being a latino myself.

My choice:

[TheNextNolan22]

Yeah *****!! Aaron Paul is definitely my choice.

 

[Mr. Dent]

Looking forward to Speedy Gonzalez.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

My choices for Barry Allen (In no real order):
Aaron Paul
Sam Claflin
Ryan Gosling
Chris Pine
Grant Gustin(if they were serious about connecting the TV Universe with the Movie Universe)

 

[FVD]

Aaron Paul would be awesome as Barry. I recently suggested Joel Kinnaman but maybe he'd be better suited for Hal. As for Sam Claflin, another decent choice for either character but I was thinking Aquaman for him. Perhaps Aquaman needs to be someone taller at least.
