The Official Casting The Superman Reboot Thread

Damn Timstuff! That's one hell of a good cast! I like it
Except for Ironside as Darksied, i too think he is too old. Maybe they could do it Cgi and he can do the voice?

Eh, paste some makeup on him and you've got your DS. Ledger didn't look 28 as Joker. The reverse can happen with Ironside. God, he's got such a cool surname.

 

[Rust]

Darkseid as a cgi-enhanced Nathan Jones voiced by Ironside would be cool.

Interesting idea

My latest casting sheet:

This is great. Still prefer gerard butler for zod.

 

[Gianakin_]

Not Sean Bean for Zod! Can't I see a movie where Bean is good and/or doesn't die? And I'm not counting the Sharpe television films.

Ha ha I wonder if he has the biggest death record compared to how many parts he played

The guy is a phenomenal actor and he gets to play the villain. Even if he doesn't he either dies or gets a completely ******ed part (see Troy). Jeez!

 

[Timstuff]

Not bad, Sean bean as Zod would be awful in my opinion and I think Ironside is too old now to play a live action Darkseid.

I don't think Darksied should be "live action" anyway. I think they should use some capacity of performance capture, and for that Ironside would still be perfect.

 

[Rust]

Too bad Mark Strong's old news regarding villains. He'd made a good Zod.

So would Joseph Fiennes...

Talk about outta the box, but classy casting.

His big brother would probably out-play him though...

What? He was a great Odysseas!

Agreed.

 

[Gianakin_]

Exactly. His role was very poorly written, though. Have you read the Iliad or the Odyssey, by Homer?

[Timstuff]

I did another one with Gerard Butler as Zod since Sean Bean didn't seem to go over too well.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

^Perfect!

 

[Sawyer]

I still say Kevin McKidd for Metallo.

 

[XxDelta09xX]

This is a pretty good cast there's a couple things I would change though. Get Tom Hardy for Lex, Get Jason Issacs for Brainiac, Get Gerard Butler for Zod, and Get Jackie Earle Haley for Dr. Emmit Vale.t:

 

[Mr. Earle]

Yes i have, but its not like all the other characters or the plot were 100% faithful to the source.

True, but Odysseus is my favorite Homer character and Sean Bean is one of my favorite actors so do the math dang itt:

 

[Mr. Earle]

Ah ok then.

 

[Project862006]

what about Michael Douglas for Perry white since Nolan casts big names

 

[Rust]

No, Dustin Hoffman for Perry White!

 

[Changeling]

Superman: Jon Hamm
Lois Lane: Rachel McAdams
Zod: Gerard Butler
Brainiac: David Bowie
Jimmy Olsen: Joseph Gordon Levitt

 

[Doctor Jones]

Levitt as Olson is a great idea.

 

[Lobo]

Malin Ackerman as Cat Grant

 

[hopefuldreamer]

If I was casting JUST based on their faces, these three would be my dream movie.
