what about David Oyelowo(Rise Of The Apes,Red Tails,The Help,Lincoln) for Cyborg he is only 36

I suggested him for John Stewart.

I'd rather Alan Ritchson play Aquaman on a tv show.

I like Rhona Mitra, but not sure she will get cast, though I like her and wouldn't mind. In my opinion WW will either be an up and comer unknown or fast rising star.

I really don't like any of your other pics nor see the characters you suggested them for, but you're thinking out the box and I like that.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

Also, at 36, isn't she too old to headline a franchise?

 

[childeroland]

36 isn't too old if the actress can bring it off and provide some maturity to the role. (Mitra, though, eh...)

I'd rather Alan Ritchson play Aquaman on a tv show.

We could only hope. I think seeing him play that comical part showed he may have the instincts to play the whitty type persona i think people are looking for in Flash. Just kind of saw a little bit of a polarizing personality to pull that off. Could very easily after Hunger Games seeing him get much bigger. And most importantly ( I think) he could put on a flash costueme (without the mask) and not look silly. Not sure i think the same about JT, or Ryan Phillipe. I think they have to be bigger than we envision flash (kind of lanky) to not come off Peter Parkerish. And yeah 36 is older but i get it we all want a WW we would like to ^%(%. But maybe an older look might exude more power on screen also i wouldnt say she looks much older than cavill in MoS Trailers. What do you think. And i though someone befors said the Aquaman was there choice as well. And a couple thing i think we should take into account for Jensen is 1 direction in a TV show always tends to be on the cheesy side. Also the country twang in his voice that youe here is not how he actually talks he intensifies it for the role. I think he has that cocky test pilot look... maybe its the leather jacket But he can be very intense and very cocky and plays the player player role very well IMO. And with Ian i just wanted to give an example that he can act. i think his look is very similar to Josh hartnett very dark mixed with a little Tom welling.... he looks like a darker Tom Welling. Like a young batman.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

I guess we'll wait till Hunger Games to see if Ritchson can pull it off.

Also, I'm down with Ackles playing Lantern, man! I think he can pull it off. I agree with you there.

Somerhalder is alright too. Just the thing that he's TOO TV right now for Batman. But that's my opinion.

Also, as I mentioned, Nikolaj would be awesome for Aquaman.

 

[DRCDarkKnight]

Anarchy is my new best friend lol BTW... What did you think of Urban in Dredd?

 

[aNarcHy2day]

I thought he was good. Way better than how Stallone handled it. To be fair, if you have to see if he can do a Batman, I guess his role in RED is a good pointer too.

Bear in mind, I want him exclusively for the JL, not the reboot, which I don't think should be done in this decade anyway!

 

[Midnight Black]

I don't want to go see JL when I'm in my 40s lol. I'm 29 and want a JL movie at most in my early 30s lol. I've waited this long and I'll be d*mned if I'm going to be 40 or 50 watching a JL movie. That also goes for a Batman reboot. I hope to see one in 2016+

Anywho, Alan Ritchson was good on Blue Mountain State. Sad it got cancelled, though I didn't really watch the second or third season as much....whenever they got rid of the black dude from Smallville.

Ritchson is a good actor and can definitely done funny/comedic. I don't know about drama, but I guess we will find out with the Hunger Games sequel if he is in that.

Ritchson IMO is built more for Aquaman than he is Flash. I can't really see him playing flash, but if he did I wouldnt be against it too much.

Somerhalder, I agree, is too TV. He has that CW appeal and comes off as a dark Welling, but I can't really see him past those type of characters and wouldn't want him as a Bruce/Bats. IMO he doesn't fit the role

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

what about taylor kitsch as hal jordan if the role is recast?

 

[Project862006]

hell no lol he is barely better than Worthington

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

hell no lol he is barely better than Worthington

its your fault. i got the idea from watching those john carter videos in the wonder woman thread.

 

[Project862006]

i apologize lol

 

[combocaz]

for a JLA sequel ill cast these guys.

 

[Majik1387]

Jaden Smith would probably be the right age by the time the movie gets made. Better suggestion that the last couple of them.

 

[BobJM]

SUPERMAN - Henry Cavill

BATMAN - Joel Edgerton

WONDER WOMAN - Jessica Biel

GREEN LANTERN - Ryan Reynolds

FLASH (Barry Allen) - Garrett Hedlund

MAXWELL LORD - Josh Brolin

Amanda Waller - ANGELA BASSETT

DR. EMIL HAMILTON - Richard Shiff

 

[Majik1387]

I can live with that.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

Jaden Smith would probably be the right age by the time the movie gets made. Better suggestion that the last couple of them.

Hey, that's definitely not fair... I suggested this guy...He's 20 and earned quite the critical acclaim (which seems to be very much the in thing this month) for Attack the Block. He's not 38 or anything!

I'd really like younger people for the role...

My choice- John Boyega from Attack The Block.

SUPERMAN - Henry Cavill

BATMAN - Joel Edgerton

WONDER WOMAN - Jessica Biel

GREEN LANTERN - Ryan Reynolds

FLASH (Barry Allen) - Garrett Hedlund

MAXWELL LORD - Josh Brolin

Amanda Waller - ANGELA BASSETT

DR. EMIL HAMILTON - Richard Shiff[/IMG]

And I could certainly watch that if it comes to pass.

 

[Majik1387]

I must have missed him in all the ridiculous Ejiofor love. People clearly just are selective about ages for characters, it's a bit stupid.
up
Can't say I've seen your suggestion in anything, but at least you're looking at the right type of actors.

 

[aNarcHy2day]

Also, my choice for Maxwell Lord...

Wes Bentley.

 

[jaymes_e06]

Wes is more of s Batman type to me.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

SUPERMAN - Henry Cavill

BATMAN - Joel Edgerton

WONDER WOMAN - Jessica Biel

GREEN LANTERN - Ryan Reynolds

FLASH (Barry Allen) - Garrett Hedlund

MAXWELL LORD - Josh Brolin

Amanda Waller - ANGELA BASSETT

DR. EMIL HAMILTON - Richard Shiff

Never crossed my mind before, but Edgerton would be an awesome Batman.

 

[Project862006]

edgerton fits more of a hawkman imo

beefed up conan o brian aint aint no batman

 

[Lily Adler]

SUPERMAN - Henry Cavill

BATMAN - Joel Edgerton

WONDER WOMAN - Jessica Biel

GREEN LANTERN - Ryan Reynolds

FLASH (Barry Allen) - Garrett Hedlund

MAXWELL LORD - Josh Brolin

Amanda Waller - ANGELA BASSETT

DR. EMIL HAMILTON - Richard Shiff

Not bad. Edgerton wouldn't be my first choice, he's not a bad one though.
