Titans Titans General Discussion Thread

I couldn't actually tell that the actress is that much younger than him based on that.

 

[godisawesome]

I think her little straight face bemusement at him makes her look like she's *acting* older which is a great idea if they actually make her younger age relative to everyone else explicit; Beast Boy can be older than her but less mature, and she can be so wise beyond her years that just seeing her reacting to him can be hilarious.

It might alos play into them having a brother and sister style relationship if he goes out of his way to try and get her more normal kid moments.

that is true. and if I didn't know the ages of the actors, from that photo, I would think they are around the same age. and it helps that Ryan Potter looks younger than his age.

with that being said, in reality, there is still a 7-8 year age difference between the actors, and he's an adult and she's still a minor. so knowing that, it would "complicate" any type of romance between the 2 characters if they go that route. it just wouldn't feel right, imo.

maybe if the show lasts for many years/seasons ( and I hope it does ), and Raven actress is older ( 18 and above ), and if Ryan still looks youthful for his age, then they could bring in the romance angle.

that would be an interesting dynamic. and as I said above, they could start out as brother/sister dynamic that could turn into romance later on when they are older. Let BB get his heart broken by Terra first.......lol.

and yes, I do hope they portray Raven as mature/wise for her age in contrast to BB being older but way less much mature.

I'm really excited to see how they portray Raven, both character wise and power wise.

I first learned of the character, and became a fan, when I caught the original Titans cartoon on tv. Since then, she has become my one of my favorite DC characters. I love her power set and backstory and find her "dual" nature, her constant struggle between light and dark, very interesting.

so I hope this show does the character justice.

I have no idea who this Chief is, but he sounds like a Chief.

http://deadline.com/2018/02/titans-bruno-bichir-cast-the-chief-dc-live-action-series-1202289194/

Bruno Bichir (Absentia) has been cast as a recurring opposite Brenton Thwaites, Anna Diop and Teagan Croft in the new live-action series Titans, from Greg Berlanti, Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, Sarah Schechter and Warner Bros TV. The series is slated to premiere in 2018 as part of the inaugural slate of a new DC-branded direct-to-consumer digital service.

Bichir will play Dr. Niles (The Chief) Caulder, a pioneer in medical science, searching the world over for those on the edge of death in need of a miracle. Brilliant, but controversial, Dr. Caulder will stop at nothing to help those he believes are in need, including his collection of strange heroes known as The Doom Patrol.

So more Titans casting.

http://ew.com/tv/2018/02/20/titans-casts-drop-dead-diva-star-as-elasti-girl/

Drop Dead Diva alum April Bowlby has been cast as Rita Farr, a.k.a. Elasti-Girl on Titans, EW has learned exclusively. An actress on the rise, Rita Farr was exposed to a toxic gas that altered her cellular structure — which, in the comics, allows her to expand or shrink her body at will. Longing for the days of old, Rita finds a place for herself among The Doom Patrol.

 

[brandeezy89]

Need a Doom Patrol spin-off. It'd be cool if the streaming service has their own universe

 

[gohei_]

Nice, they got Alan's hot girlfriend from 2 & ½ Men

 

[Rike]

Man

This show is gonna be awesome t:

 

[Deck Rickard]

Do the Titans and the Doom Patrol have much interaction in the comics? I'm not complaining, just a little surprised.

 

[godisawesome]

Beast Boy hails from the Doom Patrol originally, so that's probably the biggest reason for the connection. I know that he definitely brought them into a few Titans arcs based off Rita being his adopted mother.

 

[X Knight]

is it wrong that I'm more interested and excited for this show than any other DC CW show or DCEU film?

 

[NotNickFury]

Not really wrong to have a preference.

On an unrelated note, hoping to see more updates from the Titans Writers Twitter handle. The writers on the DC CW Twitter handles tend to drop little tidbits every now and then.

More Doom Patrol casting:

http://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/titans/271323/titans-tv-series-doom-patrol-adds-negative-man-exclusive

Warner Bros. has been drip-feeding the details of the Doom Patrol cast over the last week or so, and we're here to bring you the latest piece of casting news: Dwain Murphy (Star Trek: Discovery, The Strain, Degrassi: The Next Generation) will play Larry "Negative Man" Trainor on the show.

 

[Deck Rickard]

is it wrong that I'm more interested and excited for this show than any other DC CW show or DCEU film?

It's totally understandable. At this point, there are only three DC films we know are definitely happening, and that's just because they're already in production or pre-production:

• Wonder Woman
• Aquaman
• Shazam

I have high hopes that all of them will be good, but at this point, who knows? The first Wonder Woman was great, but there's always the worry that the sequel won't measure up. I hope it does, but I have to admit that the recent Kristen Wiig rumor/news has me a little... concerned. Wiig is a good actress but I have a LOT of trouble picturing her as Cheetah.



Then there's Aquaman (or Broseidon). I still like Momoa but his macho bro-dog shtick is wearing a little thin on me. I get that Aquaman was a joke for years and WB wants to make him "badass", but... there's more to the character than that. But so far, that seems to be the only aspect of Arthur that they want to tap into.



And I feel like Shazam has a ton of potential, perhaps to do what DCEU's Superman couldn't; create a fun superhero who isn't angst ridden and sullen and isn't afraid to embrace the dorkier aspects of his personality. My only fear though is that they'll go TOO far in the other direction, and we'll have another campy mess on our hands (think Green Lantern).

 

[Rorschach2012]

Yeah I'm anticipating this A LOT more than WW2, Aquaman, or Shazam. I'm not that hyped about any of those tbh.

 

[BigSams50]

Wondering, has there been any other news about when the first episode is supposed to air? All i can seem to find is 2018.

 

[Mike Murdock]

Have they updated any information about the streaming service? Does it have a name yet?

I’m looking forward to WW2 and Aquaman a lot. Not sure yet on Shazam. Broseidon, lol.

[X Knight]

wonder if we will actually get to see Bruce/Batman........

 

[Juan1193]

Have they updated any information about the streaming service? Does it have a name yet?

Nope. All we know so far is that it's set to launch in Q4 2018. So earliest is October.

We'll likely get more information at Wonder Con (end of March) and Comic Con (July).

 

[KevTravels]

how big of a budget is this suppose to have? comparably to say the Netflix or CW shows?

 

[Primal Slayer]

Probably in the middle.
