The Batman Reboot Casting Thread - Part 2

[Revenger]

Hedlund is too boylish. he could pass as an adult robin.

 

[Majik1387]

He's not boyish.

I don't really like him for Bruce though.

 

[Rodrigo90]

He looks like a 15 year old.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

If they aren't going with the option of casting a younger actor to rebuild the franchise around...gotta go with Fassbender. Dat Fass.

 

[Revenger]

I still can't believe hes doing Prometheus sequels after the X-men sequel. I hated Prometheus but I guess someone liked it

 

[shauner111]

I dug Prometheus. It's more of the opposite, i cant believe he's doing more X-men movies when he could be Batman for the next X amount of years.

 

[Majik1387]

He could do all the above if he really wants.

I think he has a sweet deal with Fox.

Totally agreed man glad someones with me on this one.


I did however want him for Cap
Not Batman material

 

[shauner111]

He could do all the above if he really wants.

Batman, James Bond, David in Prometheus and Magneto in X-Men...if only this could happen. The Fassbender take-over.

 

[Changeling]

I hate how unlikely Fassbender is to be Batman... hes so perfect

 

[Revenger]

Agreed. But Magneto is so badass so it's hard to complain

 

[Changeling]

Dat scene with the coin.....and da head...

Hoechlin- Plain bad
Stewart is good but not as Alfred

Steven Lang would work and I wouldnt be disappointed but I wouldnt be very enthusiastic either after someone like Gary Oldman

Richard Armitage as Penguin? I dont see it..

James Franco as Joker is interesting though you might be on to something.

No to Bradley Cooper as Riddler i dont think he could be a convincing villain but i could be proven otherwise..

Daniel Craig as Mr Freeze is perfect

Why waste Idris Elba on Killer Croc, he would obviously be under a lot of prosthetics

I couldnt really understand but was willing to accept Teresa Palmer as Talia in Justice League Mortal but her as Catwoman makes even less sense...No to her

Ribisi as Ventriloquist might be good, even though hes typically portrayed as older.. Robin Williams for older Ventriloquist... off topic but lol@ Giovanni Ribisi dancing in Ted as the creepy guy who steals Ted

I like Leonardo DiCaprio and I think hell be a good villain if Tarantino cast him as a villain in Django Unchained so I would definitely like to see him as Clayface, thats a very cool idea. It doesnt really matter what Clayface looks like. Or if its Basil Karlo or Matt Hagen. I say take a lot of the elements from BTAS Clayface. Or even The Batman where Clayface is a police officer Bruce was friends with.

We dont need to see Bane for a while but when we do... Bardem all the way, great choice.

 

[The Vafrous]

After some thought, I wouldn't mind if any of these actors are cast as Bruce Wayne/Batman:

1. Dustin Clare
2. Joel Edgerton
3. Luke Evans
4. Logan Marshall-Green
5. Michael Fassbender (highly unlikely though)
6.Ryan Gosling
7. Jonathan Rhys-Meyer
8. Garrett Hedlund (those that disagree, watch Death Sentence)
9. Matt Bommer (I haven't seen him play an intimidating character)
10. Alexander Skarsgaard

The above list is in no particular order, by the way. I still think that Tom Hardy would make a great Batman, but you know...

 

[Project862006]

He looks like a 15 year old.

what 15 year old's do you know

 

[TheWatcher]

It's very unfair to use the worst possible picture of an actor to prove your point.

Use this one if you want one closer to what he would look like as Bruce.

 

[Boosted]

i don't think hedlund has the acting chops or intimidation factor to play Bruce Wayne. I wouldn't call him a pretty boy, but he's a bit fratty.

 

[TheWatcher]

Watch Death Sentence

 

[Boosted]

I don't think I wanna put myself through that.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I like Hedlund but I think he's better suited to Flash or another character.

 

[Project862006]

I don't think I wanna put myself through that.

why? its a great movie and is a better punisher film than any of the 3 terrible adaptions

and hedlund is great in it as the bad guy

and kevin bacon is a bad ass

 

[TheWatcher]

When isn't Kevin Bacon a badass?

Well it's not really my thing. Everything I've seen of it, plus reviews made it seem awful to me. And I doubt it would make me think Hedlund has the presence to play Batman.
