Days of Future Past 'X-men: DOFP' Official CAST Thread (announcements and discussion)

[Lightning Strykez!]

Who we talking about? Leech or Banshee? ... or both?

Banshee. Or, more specifically the actor. But then again, Banshee was never cute in the comics either, so...I guess they are trying to be accurate. Helluva time to start trying though...

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Oh...I thought he was okay. Not very good looking, no offence. I've seen sexier

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

And for the record, I adore redheads. I prefer them over any other type of man (my partner is black/brown-haired, so he got a "pass" by the grace of other things). So gingers are definitely IT for me.

Just not Caleb's ginger.

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Oh... I like redheads too...I mean..uh...especially on women...like Famke Janssen...but I think I prefer her more natural hair color which is dark...black or whatever you wanna call it. I mean heck, even Rebecca Romjin sported dark hair in X3 and that was really hot as hell...plus she was naked...so.. um...yeah. heh.

 

[psylockolussus]

I think he's hot

He's not attractive to me, but with the right hair and clothes, he wouldn't look so bad.

 

[lordofthenerds]

Does it really matter how attractive Banshee is?

 

[Mad Ones]

I find Rupert Grint awkward. Banshee was Ron Weasley on crack.

 

[psylockolussus]

He wasn't painful to watch.

Despite the lack of character development that was given to his character, he still brought his personality. Critics actually liked him compare to Angel Salvadore, Havok, Emma and the other UTR villains.

 

[Duran Man]

At least he looked better than his earlier comic counterpart:

 

[lordofthenerds]

I thought he brought in some okay comic relief...

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

Does it really matter how attractive Banshee is?

No, it's not important. I was just making an observation. Shallow? Yes.

 

[Mulholland-Jr]

At least he looked better than his earlier comic counterpart:

How the Banshee Stole Christmas?

 

[EnDz0n3]

At least he looked better than his earlier comic counterpart:

How unfortunate that the Irish in the team is fugly

 

[Hawkingbird]

I thought he was better than Angel- he could act

 

[Project862006]

caleb does have that creepy look going on lol

 

[Hawkingbird]

I have a thing for creepy looking gingers with distant voices...

 

[X-Maniac]

If they keep Banshee (and probably recast with Rupert Grint or Eddie Redmayne), they might then add Dazzler (as was intended in an early First Class script where she used his sonic scream to create laser beams), and they might also feel obliged to keep Havok.

Recasting Banshee with those actors makes no sense. Nothing wrong with Caleb Landry Jones.

 

[Angamb]

EXACTLY!

He was one of the best choices regarding the younger actors of the franchise. So spot on.

I'll miss him if he doesnt return

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

I'll miss havoc...if they don't bring him back but I gotta say, Mystique is my fave character from First Class next to Beast.

 

[loonatik]

Any chance of Nightcrawler?

LooN

 

[spideyboy_1111]

Any chance of Nightcrawler?

LooN

there's always a chance, but it doesn't look good for the fan fav fuzzy elf

 

[UnionJack]

God dammit why is Banshee back, he is a terrible character!

 

[Angamb]

Banshee isnt confirmed

and about your second point... anyway, lol

 

[JP]

Does it really matter how attractive Banshee is?

Yes. And good thing Caleb was adorable.
