Who would play Sabretooth? Keep Mane or get new blood? Triple H? No Wrestlers?

FYI CREW said:
Tyler Mane claims to be 6'10". Though I saw him before and I would say 6'9".

HHH claims to be 6'4". I have seen him also and I am only 6'5" and he came to about my nose so I would say he is only 6'2" or so. Hardly bigger than Jackman. Plus, if you have seen his legs, they are really small (too many steroids).

Now, out of the two, Tyler would be my choice simply because he is a lot bigger than Jackman.

However, if we are going with wrestlers, my choice for Sabertooth would be THE BIGSHOW. 7' tall, 500 pounds. And has that monstrous voice to play the part. The problem is BIGSHOW isn't a fast guy but with FX they could make him look awesome.

first of all i think Triple H is huge...well the last time I saw him(Blade 3). Also height can easily be fixed...They made Mickey Rourke(sp) from Sin city a 7 foot monster when hes really like 5 foot something.


Also Tyler really looked bad as Saber...:(
 
I think Mane should be kept, he showed a little bit in Troy that he can actually act, so give him more to do in Wolverine and i think he could handle it.
 
they will keep Mane as Sabortooth, garanteed....... he was fine in X1...... my only concern is that they show both Wolverine and Sabortooth getting amnesia, that way we know why they both had no idea who each other was in X1........


also, i want a cameo of Ian in this film, show him finding sabortooth at the end

Tyler Mane should return. In my opinion he was the perfect Sabretooth. He needs only more dialogue and more to do.

Exactly...its all about consistiency peeps. :up:

Triple H wasn't that big in Blade 3. With Mickey Rourke they also used the green screen to make him look taller; It would be kind of different making someone taller with the rest of the cast in the same picture.

I didn't think Tyler looked bad, the comic costume really wouldn't work onscreen and I thought it was a good interpretation of what he would wear, but it's your opinion.
 
as I mentioned,hes already signed for two more x-films,both he and wizard said this so his return is pretty set.
 
I definitely think they should keep Mane.

I just don't see how people think it's Mane's fault Sabes didn't do more in X-Men. I mean, the script gave him very little to do,and it's not like he's some Hollywood star, if he "fought" for the character, they might well have just replaced him on the spot.

What he did do I felt was good, the "scream for me" bits hinted at his sadistic side, and he has the right size for the role.

I think HHH still lookes more like sabertooth than mane...If they still get mane I wouldnt be too disappointed but Im still hoping they dont
 
i didnt mine tyler mane. he did what he could with what he was dealt. but i really dont like the idea of triple h. sorry
 
I think Ron Pearlman could be a good sabertooth, he's used to wearing makeup and does great voice work.
 
Mane had what 3 lines in all of X1? Theres no way to really know how well he can act so I honestly cant say. I do know that he was horrible looking, yes hes big and hairy but he does look like a normal guy sans the teeth and claws. Id like to see something more along the lines of the Return of Weapon X look. While Wolverine would be content to wander the wilderness in skins Victor would stay where the "meat" is. As a serial killer he would have to dress normally and be rather good looking. For his "work" clothes he would look best as a sort of mercenary. Cloths he can move around in and not get his nice deerskin coat caught on things. :)
 
TRIPLE H FOR SABRETOOTH!!! He NATURALLY looks like Sabretooth! Mane needs contacts and fake facial hair to look the part.:o

yea it would be easier to get him than to recast
 
Hugh Jackman and Jean-Paul Lavesque aka HHH are BOTH 6'2". The guy originally considered for the Sabretooth role, but for some reason not offered it; Kevin Nash, can play sadistic BETTER than HHH and is 6'11", more athletic than Tyler Mane and has a more menacing voice & facial expressions than either man. You guys would've seen him as The Russian in The Punisher, but he usually has long hair and a beard. He's the closest in looks and character, as portrayed in his wrestling persona, to Sabretooth that I can think of, whereas The Big Show looks like Snarl.

You're not alone.
 
How did he do a bad job? He only had like two lines!! HE WAS AWESOME!!
 
nash is a terrible actor. if you're talking about his role in the punisher, well...he didn't have any speaking lines. he was terrible in grandma's boy too. tyler mane hasn't really had many lines in other movies either. i'm really against wrestlers making the leap to movies. they should just get a buffed up ACTOR and use cgi or whatever to make him look bigger than wolverine.

Mane for sure. I don't think it would really do anything to get say HHH to reprise the role.
 
He did a pretty good job in the game and did a good job with what he had in x1, so why not? it would be stupid to yank him out of the role, and someone like hhh just doesnt look threatening enough with his cartoon nose.
 
if mane does come back then i hope he doesn't look like he did in x-men.
 
I'd like to see Mane back, or get someone else. I have nothing against HHH, but I don't think he'd be a good Sabre, IMHO.
