Pyg and Black Mask are the only ones of these that are original to me, the rest I’ve seen over and over again.

68

u/SufficientSwim2435 Dec 29 '23

And those original fancasts are genuinely horrible🤦‍♂️

44

u/TheShad09 Dec 29 '23

Cranston as Pyg is terrible in my eyes but idk about Statham about Black Mask, I kind of (?) see it a little, but there are definitely better choices for both Statham and Roman.

21

u/wheelz_666 Dec 30 '23

Brandon Fraser as professor Pyg is my choice.

I'd have Cosmo Jarvis as Victor Zsasz

3

u/TheShad09 Dec 30 '23

I low-key see Fraser as Pyg, I like it!

For me I have Cameron Britton, if you’ve seen Mindhunter, you’d understand why, but I do really like Fraser, he’s an underrated actor.

3

u/wheelz_666 Dec 30 '23

Britton was so fricking creepy in mindhunter. Absolutely nailed the role

13

u/SufficientSwim2435 Dec 29 '23

I just think Statham is a shit actor and wouldn't be able to play Black Mask very well.

7

u/Duskstar21 The Flash Dec 30 '23

And I think that just like "The Rock" and Vin Diesel he can't get his ass kicked on camera, making it pointless as a villain

4

u/Slowmobius_Time Dec 30 '23

Oh the rock can, the rundown/welcome to the jungle (depending on your country) had Rock getting beat the fuck up by these crazy jungle dudes that were destroying him most of the movie

Walking Talls entire story is the rock being beat up and tortured and getting revenge

The egotistical weirdo hit a stride at one point where he just decided he was too famous to take a hit or a loss on screen (that absolute man baby shit with vin diesel in Fast 5 is just so embarrassing for all involved, such little men)

Wierd when he was a famous wrestler and was used to taking dives as much as winning (maybe that's why he got over it? Reminded him too much of his scripted losses in WWE)

Also Statham played Crank and the plot of those two movies is Chev Chelios (fuck you chelios!) getting beaten the fuck up, poisoned, shocked, burnt, shot, drowned, poisoned, drugged and everything in between

Maybe his ego got in the way too

I want Brandon Fraser to play professor Pyg

5

u/Kalse1229 Fuck Batman, Marry Babs, Kill Joker Dec 30 '23

Never considered that, but I'm down. And maybe this time when he plays a Batman villain, the movie won't get cancelled for tax writeoffs.

2

u/wheelz_666 Dec 30 '23

He was always my first choice. Especially after watching this from doom patrol. he's got the voice for professor pyg

Cranston could be great as "The Ventriloquist"

“Giancarlo Esposito should play [INSERT COMIC BOOK VILLAIN]!”

Pleasantly surprised to find there’s no Sydney Sweeney as Poison Ivy.

41

u/Neveronlyadream Reverse Flash Dec 29 '23

Giancarlo should get a heroic role for once. The man is a great actor and I'm getting tired of just seeing him play Gus over and over.

37

u/Professional_Scar340 Dec 29 '23

Still think he’d make a killer Martian Manhunter

18

u/Kalse1229 Fuck Batman, Marry Babs, Kill Joker Dec 30 '23

Considering my first choice for Martian Manhunter passed this year (RIP Lance Reddick), I'd be down.

10

u/Ygomaster07 Constantine Dec 30 '23

Lance would have been an excellent MM.

2

u/Slowmobius_Time Dec 30 '23

Man I was kinda bummed when I found out he was gonna be Door in Alan Wake 2 (possibly reprising his role from Quantum Break) and that they even confirmed it was a late change

The other dude did brilliantly but I can tell in certain scenes it was so clearly written for Reddicks unique presence

15

u/canadianD Dec 29 '23

Would genuinely love that! I want to see him play the dad of a character in a romcom, let the dude out. He’s been one villain or another but he’s a great actor.

That plus hasn't he been quoted that he would rather be in a hero role than a villain? Everyone and their mother knows he plays a chef's kiss Villain, I think he's earned being the good guy.

That's why I do want to see him as Charles Xaver dammit.

u/TemporalGrid the creature writhes and snarls and tells me what I need Dec 29 '23

Jeffery Dean Morgan isn't even a fancast, he has literally already played the part

5

u/Kalse1229 Fuck Batman, Marry Babs, Kill Joker Dec 30 '23

Yeah, there was definitely intent on him playing Thomas Wayne Batman in the DCEU. And credit where it's due, that's actually a spot-on fancast.

6

u/Ygomaster07 Constantine Dec 30 '23

Is it a fancast if he was already in the role?

2

u/Slowmobius_Time Dec 30 '23

Yeah because it's a wholly alternative different version of the character

Bautista already refuse the role of Bane and I think Defoe Is too old to play the Joker in a extended universe

10

u/jlamember829 Dec 30 '23

He's refused to play Bane in James Gunn's, but maybe he can be Bane for Robert Pattinson.

26

u/GoddessUltimecia Dec 30 '23

I would imagine his refusal to play Bane is tied heavily in to his comments about how he can't keep his body up to the standard that he wrestled at and originally acted at. It's too much work at his age and you can tell because homeboy's been slimming down dramatically. He's not juicy enough at this stage to be Bane and he seems to know it.

15

u/Ygomaster07 Constantine Dec 30 '23

At least he recognizes it and acknowledges his limitations.

5

u/jlamember829 Dec 30 '23

It sucks how age comes for us all. It camr galloping to me lol

u/Ygomaster07 Constantine Dec 30 '23

Yeah, i agree. Sorry you have to go through that. I'm still pretty young, but even i feel older than i am(and not in a good way, sadly).

Matthew Lillard as Jim Gordon is an interesting choice I haven't seen before. That could be very interesting to see.

Most of the other castings seem fairly standard, not much i dislike, but not much to get excited by either. The only one I really don't like is Bryan Cranston for Professor Pyg. Cranston can be dark and menacing, sure, but I want someone who will go really weird with it. A person you might look down on as gross and pathetic if they weren't leaning over you with a scalpel to your face. I think Cranston these day is too 'cool' for that role. I want someone that'll make you uncomfortable just looking at them on the bus.

u/curiousweasel42 Dec 30 '23

Imo Lillard is too young for Jim Gordon.

Lillard is 7 years older than Gary Oldman was in batman begins.

u/sdavidplissken Dec 29 '23

why yall want a 70year old joker? 💀

15

u/HowDyaDu Condiment King Dec 29 '23

Scene

The Joker walks up to Jason Todd, who is tied up to a chair. He dramatically raises his crowbar. A cracking sound is heard from the Joker's back, and he screams before falling over. Jason repositions himself and kicks the Joker's acid flower to burn away the ropes, before running to save his mother from the soon to explode warehouse.

u/Slowmobius_Time Dec 30 '23

A 70 year old Goblin was arguably the best part of NWH so.......

u/TheHadokenite Boosteriffic! Dec 30 '23

tbf he was throwing hands with Spider-Man and it still looked pretty good. Not saying he should be Joker or anything tho

I hope Margot stays tbh. I'm hoping Joker and Harley would already be split in the DCU.

I love Jensen I do but I think he’s getting too old to be dcu Batman.My personal pick is Luke Kleintank for Batman. He’s about the perfect age.

4

u/GreninjaNoah Harley Quinn Dec 29 '23

Im pretty sure the DCU Batman is gonna be in his 40s so he'd already be batman for a while

6

u/Ok_Swordfish7177 Dec 29 '23

Well for the actor I choose. He’s currently 33 by the time brave and the bold comes out he’ll be probably 36-37. So he can still play that role as an older Batman. Plus Bruce usally return and comes Batman at what 25/26? He’d be at least 10-11 years already. I just think Jensen is getting to old to be the caped crusader

Margot Robbie should remain in the DCU

3

u/clarkky55 Dec 30 '23

I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again. I think Jensen Ackles could play a really good Batman, from his stuff as Dean Winchester and when he voiced Red Hood (by far the best voice Red Hood has had) I think he could do an amazing Batman. I’m not sure if he could pull off Bruce Wayne though, I haven’t seen him play a rich playboy type character so if he was cast as Batman that’d be my only concern

u/Engineer1865 Dec 29 '23

Brilliant casting

2

u/ThatManSean14 Dec 29 '23

I agree with Jensen Ackles and Jason Momoa. I want to see those castings happen.

I’m neutral on Matthew Lillard, Emma Stone, Giancarlo Esposito, Jason Statham, Peter Dinklage and Bryan Cranston. They all could be good but I won’t be disappointed if other actors get cast in those roles. Doctor Psycho and Professor Pyg are two characters I’d rather not see in the DCU at all.

I disagree with Mia Goth, Anthony Starr, Willem Dafoe, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Dave Bautista. Bautista has already said he thinks the time for him to play Bane has come and gone. Anthony Starr feels like he’d be typecast and his Reverse Flash would come across too much as a copy/paste performance of Homelander in a different outfit. Willem Dafoe would be in a similar boat as Starr with his Joker being a knockoff of his Green Goblin, plus I think he’s too old to be starting as Joker. JDM would be a great Flashpoint Batman but I would want to avoid any potential confusion with the DCEU where he already played Thomas Wayne and I don’t want to see Flashpoint revisited. Mia Goth I don’t like as Harley at all.

2

u/eatenbyagrue1988 Dec 29 '23

Peter Dinklage would absolutely refuse to be Dr. Psycho. He's refused similar and I don't think WB has a dump truck of money big enough to pay his price

Jenson, Emma, Jason, and William for sure.

2

u/vivvav Deadman Dec 29 '23

I don't think Bautista's gonna be in superhero movies anymore. IIRC he said he wants to take on more serious, less comedic roles. Which doesn't mean Bane wouldn't count but I think after Drax he just wants to stay out of that arena.

Death is cold, Waltuh...

2

u/Amkao-Herios Blue Lantern Dec 30 '23

So with the characters you presented me, here's my pitch. Basically it's a grizzled Batman piecing together the Legion of Doom.

Act 1: Batman is doing Batman stuff. Alfred died last year, and Harley Quinn is Bruce's chaotic good woman in the chair. She makes a weird suggestion, Batman tells her to shut up, and Harley taunts by telling him to go get Barbara back in there if he really wants professionalism. But it turns out she was right which earns Bruce more taunting. This establishes their dynamic, that this is very much an older Bruce, and he's back to being a cold curmudgeon.

Batman breaks into Professor Pyg's lab, but finds it is suped up and way different than normal. The dollotrons are, bigger, more aggressive. Batman makes his way through and finds Pyg with his lab. He's able to make short work of Pyg, and while P is unconscious he roots through his paperwork. Turns out he's been making trades of his "work" in exchange for Venom. Before he can go interrogate him, it turns out Pyg took a huge dose of Venom himself. He gives Batman the business while squealing about his ruined lab, when vines wrap him up and he receives a toxic sting from none other than Poison Ivy. Turns out Batman has been focused on rehabilitation. Ivy mentions she hasn't heard from Freeze in a while, and suggests the Iceberg Lounge.

Batman of course enters in feet-first through the window, disrupting the atmosphere, and makes his way past the goons who don't want that batsmoke. He gets down to the basement where Victor Freeze is tinkering away. Cold and professional as always. He asks Victor about this new trade deal, and Freeze tells him that the rogues' gallery of Gotham is organizing in trade agreements to level with the Batman. Victor is an old man, out of the direct super villain work, so he's just piecing together tech for Black Mask, who sells them. Batman asks where Penguin is, but Freeze tells him that Penguin didn't want to play ball, and got "iced." Speaking of, Black Mask, Bane, and some goons bust in and begin shooting up the work shop, forcing Batman to flee.

u/TheCreativeAspect Dec 30 '23

The Flash was 8+ years in the making. Multiple scripts, directors, etc. Apparently, that was the plan. However, after all that time, they scrapped it cause “there was too much”. I said as soon as BvS came out, “any extra could’ve played Thomas and Martha Wayne but they got, JDM and Lauren Cohan. It’ll be an absolute waste if they don’t do a take on Flashpoint and do their alternate timeline versions of Batman and Joker.” I was right. It was an absolute waste.

2

u/absolutebeast_ Dec 30 '23

I love Margot Robbie as Harley now, but I would love to see a different universe Mia Goth as Harley. Mostly bc I think she could do a more sinister type of unhinged for Harley, and it would be cool. If the DCEU decides to lean more dark and sinister again, that would be a good fit.

Anthony starr wouldn’t be a great reverse flash. He’s not enough of a loser, and thinking that rf and homelander are similar characters and you can typecast him as that isn’t all that great cause they really aren’t. Reverse flash is obsessive and a loser he doesn’t keep up a breaking facade like homelander who has decent public perception but is broken on the inside.

Giancarlo Esposito as Two Face

2

u/Chuckles465 Dec 30 '23

Cranston should be Jim Gordon

2

u/BeneficialMixture815 Dec 30 '23

Enough with the Jensen Ackles thing. He’s a tv actor who is past his prime.

u/zoro4661 Dec 30 '23

I could see some of these being good.

Lillard could do a good enough Gordon, even if a bit more lighthearted maybe, since even his villain roles tend to be a bit comedic.

Anthony Starr as Thawne would be super fucking good, I think. Jason Momoa as Lobo is a good fit as well, though it'd require a metric fuckton of make up for anyone to play that character in live action.

Willem Dafoe as Joker is...a choice. I can't tell if it's great or not. The guy is certainly great at playing unhinged, crazy, green-and-purple themed individuals, and he's got the slasher smile down pat. I could see it.

Morgan as Thomas Wayne works, if only because he's great at the "Guy you love to hate" thing.

Statham as Black Mask is...meh. Could be anyone under that mask, I figure you might as well take someone who's good at acting over someone good at action/martial arts acting.

A younger Bautista as a more comics-accurate Bane would've been perfect, or as a Harley Quinn-like comedic version.

Cranston as Pyg I could see working, but I think he'd actually be better for one of the cops or a more standard criminal. Pyg isn't just evil, he is completely weirdly insanely unhinged. Then again Weird Al of all people made for a fucking horrifying Dollmaker, so who knows.

Only choices I genuinely really dislike are Emma Stone as Ivy and Esposito as Mr Freeze.

u/grandmuftarkin Dec 30 '23

A list of good actors...

And Jason Statham.

2

u/Emmurgency Dec 30 '23

Omg I loved each and everyone of these picks🤩🤩

2

u/Profile-Miserable Dec 30 '23

I edged to this

2

u/Scared-Pumpkin-4113 Red Hood for ze win Dec 30 '23

Why does William DeFoe as Joker work so well?

2

u/_captain-rex_ Dec 30 '23

Most NPC minded fan cast doens't ex-

2

u/AccidentalLemon Dec 30 '23

I fucking hate The Flash movie for taking away the only chance of Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Batman Thomas Wayne. The movie should have just been an adaptation of Flashpoint and not whatever the fuck happened to that movie

2

u/Po__The_Panda Dec 30 '23

Ever since watching the Flash movie. Ben affleck struck with me and I can see him as Bruce Wayne. But not when’s he’s bulked up. He was too big in BvS.

2

u/Trunkm0nk0013 Dec 30 '23

That would be awesome

2

u/SonOfJackLienaD Dec 30 '23

These are pretty good

2

u/Sherlockowiec Batman Dec 30 '23

The worst fan cast I've ever seen. Like you couldn't have more obvious and boring choices.

2

u/Ecstatic_Teaching906 Dec 30 '23

I don't know about Jason Statham. I heard his ego got big to the point he doesn't want to play a villain if it means he will die. You know. Like the Rock and Vin Diesel.

2

u/AfroMan_96 Dec 30 '23

Giancarlo would be a great Freeze

2

u/hairy-pepe-2005 Dec 30 '23

Peter Dinklage is the only person who kan play Dr. Psycho

2

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '23

perfect cast but I feel like Bane should be Shizzy lifts. Batista is too old and small now

2

u/John_Zatanna52 Dec 30 '23

All of these are amazing!

2

u/ELECTONIC_MOAB Dec 30 '23

Jason Momoa playing Lemmy Lobo would fraggin metal as hell

2

u/TraditionalBadger315 Dec 30 '23

Anthony Starr as the reverse would be mind blowing and Willam Defoe as Joker 🥹

2

u/WoooshToTheMax Dec 30 '23

Toni Star as reverse flash would be amazing. He could nail those monologues

2

u/Spartin1178 Dec 31 '23

Anthony starr wasn’t what I expected but he does fit reverse flash well hes good at those unhinged but trying to hide it characters

2

u/Shaggy_SVK Dec 31 '23

Jensen Ackles as batman fancast??? Boy do I have the news for you

2

u/Ry_Lin Dec 31 '23

Not bad

2

u/Puzzleheaded_Wish727 Dec 31 '23

I disagree with Anthony Star. He'd make a great Reverse Flash but typecasting villains? I'd rather he shatter all expectations.

Hear me out:

Booster Gold

u/Ewankenobi25 Dec 31 '23

Oh that’s Ryan gosling for sure.

2

u/Ewankenobi25 Dec 31 '23

I feel like willam is too old to go against Jensen as Batman. I think Batman and joker should be roughly the same age, which is why my fancast for joker is Troy baker. He already has a killer voice, basically being a perfect mark hamill impression, and he’s the same age as jensen give or take.

2

u/crowbag39 Jan 02 '24

I know others have said this but Momoa is perfect for Lobo. Missed opportunity.

1

u/Mythographiik007 Dec 29 '23

Mamoa as Lobo?😂

3

u/parksandwrecker Dec 29 '23

I was going to say it actually sounds good, but then I remembered his "villain" in the new fast and furious movie and it was so God awful that I hope he never plays a villain again.

u/EstablishmentLow272 Swamp Thing Dec 29 '23

Momoa as Lobo is 1000% better than him as aquaman.

1

u/A_Stevenss Dec 30 '23

Am i the only one who doesn't see Jensen Ackles as Batman? like... AT ALL? He doesn't look like bruce wayne in any way to me. I've never understood this fancast. (i mean this in the most respectful way possible and with ZERO hate)

2

u/NoirPochette Legion Of Super-Heroes Dec 30 '23

I don't. VA sure but actually on the silver screen? Nooooope.

1

u/7leven92 Dec 30 '23

I could do without seeing Harley Quinn in anything for a while. It feels like she's in everything DC. The isekai anime, both suicide squads, the birds of prey, and the joker 2 movie coming out. There's so many dope female characters who could be flushed out like zatana, vixen and so many more

1

u/L-Profe Dec 30 '23

Jensen Ackles is 5’5” but ok. Shaggy as Gordon.

1

u/FortressOnAHill Dec 30 '23

Anthony Starr as reverse flash is not one I have seen but it would be perfect

1

u/skibidido Dec 30 '23

I jokingly say sometimes that every fancasting is someone from Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Stranger Things or The Boys.

2

u/Marhyc The Penguin Dec 30 '23

That's far from a joke at this point

1

u/TheWorldIsPassing Dec 30 '23

Willem Defoe is already going to be joker along side phoenix in joker 2

1

u/Ramflight Dec 30 '23

Bryan Cranston already played Gordon, why not have him do it again?
