  • The only reliable Superman rumor seems a little more complicated than we initially thought and might say something about an unexpected villain.

    I feel like we honestly can’t take any Gunn casting rumors at face value because it’s such a crabshoot with him. On the one hand, he’ll bring in an unknown to play a girl who can control rats, and on the other, he’ll cast Rocky to play a shark demigod

      @haruhirogrimgar6047 Před rokem +34

      And he also re-uses actors a lot. That girl who controls rats (Rat Catcher 2) came back as an alien hostage in GoG 3 same with Peacemaker's Team leader and the High Evolutionary. Not to mention the allegations of nepotism (granted they generally do really well in their roles).
      Drax or Ronan could be the next Superman for all we know.

      Honestly, all that "nepotism" crap bothers me. The fact that so many Hollywood types do it and yet they don't get as much flack is odd to me.
      Paul Anderson and Milla Jovovich really stand out to me for this.

      To be fair, we saw Billy Cudrup as Barry Allen's father, Jeffrey Dean Morgan played Thomas Wayne, Patrick Wilson ended up as Ocean Master (he also did a cameo voicing the President in BVS) and Snyder also mentioned Carla Gugino (Silk Spectre I) as a perfect candidate for DCEU's Catwoman.
      It's nothing new.

    One of things that always hampers online discussion of casting is the general public isn't familiar with an actor's stage work and, unless you live in New York, doesn't have access to see it. Christopher Reeve was doing off Broadway theatre in New York before he got Superman. I love Rachel Brosnahan, but I never got to see her in Othello with Daniel Craig and David Oyelowo. Right now she's in that revival of The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window with Oscar Isaac. I'd love to see that. There is a lot more to an actor's resume than just film and TV. I wish IMDB would list their theater credits too.

    @kristi_smearg Před rokem +47

    For me, having photos of the actors put up would be hugely useful for these kinda videos going forward, like I think you did with the F4 video, I have no idea who any of the actors are so it's really hard to really understand the conversation here at times. Even when I am able to look stuff up, I sometimes can't seem to find the actor you're talking about, like I'm not sure how to spell the name or w/e
    You might assume that someone like me who doesn't know any of these actors and hasn't been following things closely would have no interest in a video like this, but, idk that's just not true, I am very interested I just need to see the people being talked about to feel some sort of connection

  • @JOVONO
    @JOVONO Před rokem +28

    Jacob Elordi would be a good choice for Scott Summers in the MCU
    Honestly Nicholas Hoult should have been cast as Cyclops in X-Men First Class
    Apart from Hank’s intelligence in chemistry and engineering that we see in the movie, everything else about his character in those movies screams Cyclops
    Like his reluctance about his powers, his leadership, his piloting skills, his relationship with James McAvoy’s Charles and his loyalty to him
    Even in Dark Phoenix when he teams up with Magneto is something that a modern comics Cyclops could do if it was still inline with Professor X’s vision or was for the good of both mutants and humans
    And he looks more like a younger version of James Marsden than he does Kelsey Grammar

      I agree, I think Brainiac is a good candidate. Gunn said the film would see Clark reconciling his alien heritage with his human upbringing, which makes the Collector of Worlds a good candidate. Also segues to the Supergirl movie nicely

    I really do hope David Corenswet is considered for the role because Ive been advocating for the hopes for him to play Superman even when Henry Cavill made his comeback to the character and later unfortunately left the role. I always imagined Corenswet could be a great Superman for Matt Reeves Batman Universe and now him potentially up for the role in the new main line DCU is even more exciting

    I remember watching 'X-Men: First Class' at the cinema and thinking: "Nicholas Hoult would make a good Clark Kent in 10 or so years".

    Oh! And Jennifer Jason Leigh in 'The Hudsucker Proxy' would have made an excellent Lois Lane. I've always thought this.

  • @huntermurrell
    @huntermurrell Před rokem +6

    It’s also been said (I think by Gunn himself, actually) that there will be other big players in the DCU introduced in this movie. Could give the Authority rumors some weight. Then again, I personally don’t want to see them introduced as villains in this film and then get a whole movie with them as the main focus presumably a year afterward. I would much rather we just do The Elite or hell, go even smaller in scope and do something like Metallo or Parasite
