Marvel's never really had any bad actors except maybe Afflek in there films. Elektra was just a bad movie but Garner is a good actress.

lol...i didn't mean it that way, but thanks for making me see the list of damn good actors that MARVEL had over the years.t:

I don't know, I'ld probably prefer Dominic Purcell

no Dominic Purcell please!

 

[HULKSTER'04]

how about that lead guy from The Core?
He was ok as a villain in Pay Check, i think he'll be alright for Abomination.

 

[Wyrminarrd]

I personally think that having a name brand actor playing Abomination is a waste of money, the character should become the giant green guy within the first 15 minutes of the movie and his voice would change a lot between his human form and his new one.

 

[HULKSTER'04]

^so who would you rather have wyrm?
You're right about him, Emil won't be appearing much in this film it's Abom that's gonna take over for the rest of the show.
Would a newbe work for you?

 

[Spider-Fan83]

^ how about George Stults, he's like the poor mans (network tv, version of) Aaron Eckhart lol (younger, and probably alot less talented, but, kinda has a similar look lol)

okay, mostly joking about this one, but, if your just looking for a semi unknown, I guess, it could actully work

A little known actor would work fine for me though I guess it depends on who they cast as Banner. If they cast a little known actor to play Banner then they need a big name for Abomination to make up for it.

If the writers are smart then Abomination will appear within the first 15-20 minutes of the film, this would mean that getting a name brand actor for that time wouldn´t be that expensive as they can use a stunt man for the motion capture.

A cool actor to play Emil and who might do a great voice if they decide to go with a name brand actor would be Keifer Sutherland.

 

[HULKSTER'04]

24.lol
If your theory are in line w/Zak Penn then i double that! They should get a brand names actor for Abom coz 15-20 minutes wont hurt so bad in the budget right?lol

Jack Bauer is a special agent formally known as Emil Blonsky.


Emil Blonsky should be a tough man like Jack Bauer. The audience should be thinking; this guy is a cool spy.

 

[The Shredder]

I would like to see the great trinity of Bana, Connelly, and Elliot return.

All were fantastic in their respective roles.

 

[HULKSTER'04]

^yes i agree, however Conelly won't be returning that's for sure.
It's sad, but i guess we have to move on.

 

[The Shredder]

^yes i agree, however Conelly won't be returning that's for sure.

Maybe. It wouldnt really surprise me to find out she's not returning, but like Bana, I would very much like to see something about Connelly, as well as Bana and Elliott returning.

Guess I am stubborn.

Ok so we can strike Purcell out as Abomination.

Purcell and Metcalfe Jump in Town Creek
Source: The Hollywood Reporter November 15, 2006


Dominic Purcell ("Prison Break") and Jesse Metcalfe (John Tucker Must Die, "Desperate Housewives") are heading to Town Creek, a vampire horror movie that Joel Schumacher is directing for Gold Circle.

The Hollywood Reporter says the two will star as brothers on a mission of revenge who become trapped in a harrowing occult experiment that dates back to the Third Reich.

Gold Circle topper Paul Brooks is producing along with Tom Lassally and Robyn Meisinger. Norm Waitt and Scott Niemeyer are executive producing. Zak Kadison is co-producing and overseeing for Gold Circle.

Lionsgate is distributing, while Mandate is handling foreign sales. A March 1 start date is being eyed.

I think it should still be eric banner since he got the part in the first place, cause who ever get's it first plays the part, and aussie legend eric banner is right for the part.

also jim carrie should play the leader.

 

[Advanced Dark]

The Leader wasn't mentioned for this film from what I remember.

 

[Negative Creep]

I hate him - one of the worst and most annoying actors on TV.

 

[aussietrooper20]

I'm just saying that it would be good to see the Leader and those hulks of his in the sequel.


also it could be good if we saw large creatures like in the cartoon seiers.

eric bana is the hulk.

 

[Advanced Dark]

I still say "Ed Harris" for Thunderbolt is Sam Elliot doesn't come back. There's gotta be a role for Statham in here too.

 

[Sava]

Sam Elliot isnt coming back?

 

[Advanced Dark]

I meant to put "IF" he isn't coming back.

 

[Sava]

Ed is great and all but Sam was spot on for Ross

 

[InnerSanctum]

Ed Harris will never touch this project with a ten foot pole. He's a serious actor that has garnered alot of the academy respect over the years. With all the untalented crew working on this project, I would assume he won't be interested.

We would be extremely lucky if Elliot returned to this project. I firmly believe he and Jennifer are probably "out" of the casting for this revamped project. Most of the cast seemed kinda cohesive. Bana was the leader of the group so without him I can't see any of the old cast wanting to come back.

Jennifer in particular has gone on to do more bigger and serious projects.

Movies don't get much bigger than Hulk. What bigger projects ?

 

[Symbiote Hulk]

Eric Bana as Bruce Banner

Jennifer Connely as Betty Ross

Sam Elliot as General Ross

not sure about the rest but if flashbacks are involved:
Nick Nolte as David Banner

Josh Lucas as Major Glenn Talbot

Cara Buono as Edith Banner

etc.

 

[Advanced Dark]

Ok well let's assume they're not recast. LOL
