Justice League The Justice League Casting Thread - Part 5

Cheetah? Hmm

And I thought it was common knowledge? That she does or does not apparently live or die in MOS?

Spoiler

it one of the few spoilers that has not yet been debunked and could is still 50/50, chances are Zod does kill her, but its not 100% yet like a few others

And why not? If she dies in MOS and comes back with a different look in a JL film or a solo WW film it wouldn't be a problem. Things like this have been done before. If she gives an amazing performance and blows the other actresses away in her audition/reading then why not?

I'm just saying not to rule her out...and don't use the excuse that the GA will be confused blah blah blah....the GA aren't as stupid as people keep making them out to be.

I'm just saying depending on her performance in MOS and if her character dies or never comes back for a MOS sequel then she might be looked as a contender.

You're not making any sense. You say the general audience wouldn't be confused, to not use that excuse, then you say the GA aren't as stupid as ppl make them out to be. LOL if they're not so stupid, they should be able to figure out that she was just in MOS playing a villainous character. If they cant figure that out then they should be treated as oblivious people. "Oh look Superman is now teaming up with his enemy!" anyone who has seen MOS at that point should be able to figure that out, cmon.

It doesn't matter what happens to her in MOS, it would be incredibly stupid to put her in a different role, especially one that is so different while standing next to Superman to fight evil. Im sure there's better options out there.

Chris Evans is irrelevant. Fantastic Four and Captain America/Avengers are not in the same universe.

I don't want Charlie Hunnam as Flash.

Charlie Hunnam is just perfect for John Constantine.

[Rodrigo90]

He's good for either really.

Prefer him for Constantine though.

 

[shauner111]

A little off topic but after seeing the trailer for Elysium, I bet Snyder/Nolan/WB cast Matt Damon for Lex Luthor.

 

[N7 Joseph Shepard]

I wanted Charlie Hunnam as Aquaman

 

[Rodrigo90]

I would hate that. Damon isn't Lex

 

[N7 Joseph Shepard]

Damon as Lex or Hunnam as Aquaman??

 

[Rodrigo90]

Damon as Lex...I edited after you posted thatlol

 

[N7 Joseph Shepard]

oh, now you go and edit your post

*edit*

dammit, why are we shadow posting each other now lol

 

[Rodrigo90]

This is confusing the hell outta me

 

[shauner111]

Hunnam could pass for Flash but he's more Aquaman to me. Best choice would be to just use him for Constantine though.

I can't see Damon as Lex either but im thinking he will be looked at.

 

[N7 Joseph Shepard]

you are not alone

 

[Rodrigo90]

Was that to shauner or me?

Hunnam, meet Del Toro, Del Toro meet Hunnam, now go make beautiful movies together

He's suited for all three of them characters. I wouldn't complain if he played either one.

Damon has been suggested before as Lex and we usually bite heads off for it.
But it's likely he'll audition.

 

[Rodrigo90]

you

What do you guys think of Chadwick Boseman for Green Lantern? Maybe even Cyborg if they went that route instead.

the guy from 42? I'm learning towards Cyborg due to his age, to young for John Stewart unless where going to completely rewrite his history.

 

[shauner111]

I was thinking more Cyborg as well.

I am making sense....you're just reading or taking it wrong. I was saying that that the GA won't confuse the characters of Faora and WW; however, they will notice that the actress is the same. Will this raise an eyebrow? Yes. Will the GA get over it if she turns out to be a hot actress in MOS and can do an outstanding job as WW if given the chance? Yes. They are not stupid people though in that they will be able to tell the actress is playing two different characters. Whether she was a bad guy in one movie and good the next is irrelevant if there is a year or two, at least, between the movies being made/out. If her performance is outstanding then why not cast her as WW. Hollywood does weird things like this all the time...if they see a profit out of it. They cast actors in multiple superhero roles, they switch actors to play the same character in sequels, they reuse actors if their talent, performance and star power are "in," Hollywood delays movies for a year to add 3d or more scenes with popular actors, etc. etc.

All I'm saying is don't count her out. And it's not stupid if they use her as a hero in a DC or Marvel franchise. She as an actress has just as much a chance of playing WW, as it stands now, as any other actress if her character in MOS dies. Think as a Hollywood studio/producer would. They do whatever the freak they want in order to make money.

 

[shauner111]

Sure they'll confuse them, if they didn't then they truly are stupid. And I don't think they are.

It's stupid because it's the same universe. Justice League will be looked at as a sequel to a MOS movie. It's beyond ridiculous. Unless it's a different universe and Cavill isn't playing Superman then fine.

They don't get actors to play multiple superheroes in the same franchise that's connected to one another.

I was thinking more Cyborg as well.

I saw an interview with Chadwick and he has a maturity and presence that I wouldn't mind seeing for John Stewart. You don't have to rewrite the characters history for him to play John, you just update it a bit.

Key elements to John's history are: 1. He is a war vet 2. He has a strong mature presence....and that's pretty much it. Yes, I'm sure some of you Stewart/GL fans will say there is more to the character. I agree, there is. However, I'm simply pointing out that you can have a 40 yr old who has served in a foreign war play John and have a 20/30 yr old who has served in a foreign war play John and both characters be hardened by the experience, mature, wise, etc.

Chadwick for John Stewart IMO. Cyborg should be played by a teenager or early 20s actor.
