i saw kinnaman in lola vs. he's a bit too innocent looking, but he does like the wayne part.

I really want a 3-picture adaptation of Hush portrayed by Michael C. Hall before he gets to old.

Cranston should be Gordon. Hands down.

I don't know about Batman, yet.

 

[Maximus One]

That is an awesome idea for Gordon

He does have a workable look for Wayne. He's very similar to Bale in that he can look classy and refined, but also dark and psychotic.

 

[bat89]

I think they should go much younger with the next Batman, like Earth One. I think Alex Pettyfer would be an interesting choice. Also, I don't know about anyone else, but I really want to see a definitive take on Dick Grayson and Vicki Vale on screen.

 

[Deathstroke]

That would be stupid. We already got the young Year One Batman with Bale in Batman Begins. Pettyfer would be horrible for any of these roles.

 

[BareYourTeeth]

Charles Dance as Freeze and Sean Bean for Ra's al Ghul.

 

[axelbratoski]

...with Liam Cunningham as Alfred, Nikoaj Coster-Waldau as Two-Face, Harry Lloyd as The Riddler and Rory McCann as Solomon Grundy

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

and richard madden as bruce wayne.

 

[D.P.]

Not really related to casting, but give me more acrobatics/agility in my Batman movies:

 

[Rowsdower!]

water for elephants made me take pattinson a little bit more seriously.

And for the record, val kilmer was an awesome bruce wayne

"Haaaarrveeeeey, I'm Bathmannnn!!"

 

[DeGenerate10]

What about John Goodman as Bullock?

 

[TheWatcher]

He's a little too big for Harvey.

Terry O'Quinn as Hugo Strange?

 

[donkeypunch]

As strange as this sounds I think Jon Hamm would be an awesome Bruce Wayne plus he has the jaw to play Batman.

 

[donkeypunch]

I like that, Goodman as Bullock

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

as strange as it sounds, nobody finds jon hamm as bruce wayne strange at all.

 

[Project862006]

want robin williams for hugo strange ever since he was rumored for TDKR way back when

 

[FeedOnATreeFrog]

Jon Hamm would be sweeeeeet. Suave, but with a great tortured quality. He does loud and quiet very well.

I feel like an older Batman is fine, especially if they want to bring Robin into it (late teens/early twenties).

 

[Alex Logan]

I really want a 3-picture adaptation of Hush portrayed by Michael C. Hall before he gets to old.

I don't know about Batman, yet.

A Hush story arch that builds over three films?

Hush is way too obscure, too new and not that strong of a character to be given 3 films. You'll be lucky to get 1 film where he's a main villain, or even a supporting villain. I do like the thought of Michael C. Hall though.

Cranston is the fanboys wet dream for Gordon, no doubt.

 

[KingMadness]

Rumors are out that Armie Hammer is going to be Batman. I would like to lay out a resounding NO.

 

[shauner111]

Aren't those rumors from a few weeks ago? If so, i heard they weren't true. And there's no way i can accept Armie Hammer as Batman lol.

 

[Edguy]

Anyone been reading on this site? Has a lot of information I've never come accross before, but I'm not sure how good the sources are..

http://movies.cosmicbooknews.com/content/armie-hammer-batman-rumor-false-hell

Anyways, glad Armie, apparently, is out of the question, but Gyllenhaal? He doesn't really look gritty enough for me.. Batman needs to look a little more tough and melancholic than that!

But like I said, not sure about the sources..

 

[BestGirl]

Has anyone ever seen Gyllenhaal convincingly play a dark role? I've seen POP, Source Code, and End of Watch, and I've never bought him as a tough guy.

 

[flickchick85]

Once again, we're in complete agreement. A big NO to Gyllenhaal.

I really hope they end up going for a MAN for this role and move past all these boyish types. And no, age really isn't the determining factor in that distinction, so I don't care that JG is in his early 30's. Leo DiCaprio is pushing 40 and he's still a man-boy. Fassbender and Ramirez are both younger than him, but they have the more masculine, mature quality Batman should have, imo.
