Title: Batman Actor will be in his 40s in Sup vs Bat
Post by: G_Thang on August 03, 2013, 05:17:31 AM
Some people are saying Scott Adkins.  Can he act?  I know he is English so that's a good thing.  It's like casting Ray Park as Darth Maul.



 


He definitely won't need a stunt double.

He plays in alot of Van Damme movies. Good martial artist. He also was in the last expendables as Van Damme's right hand man. That would be a huge career break for him.

I wouldn't call Bale's Batman performances Oscar worthy. Batman can easily be done by a medium range actor. It is more about the look and athletic prowess.

he said he wouldn't.  then again, he said might if nolan was in play.  he fits the 40-something batman now.  the screen play is already written. it would be funny if he has already said, yes, and they are throwing out false signals for hype.

He was good. I remember he got like 8 million for the batman roles, and 5 for non batman roles, and he stopped doing them. Said he didn't want to get type cast. I would have sold out.

I think keaton is the best batman yet, he had the mannersims, the expressions and batmans voice spot on. To me it never mattered he wasn't very tall and muscular when he became batman he embodied it.
Keaton infact was set to do a third batman film and actually wanted it to be an origins movie, he wanted to stay dark and even stopped robin appearing in returns. The studio then announced they were going colourful with the third and that robin would be in it so keaton waved goodbye.

Is Josh Brolin Now Unlikely For Batman In SUPERMAN/BATMAN; A New Name Rises For The Role Of Batman

With the announcement of the Superman/Batman movie coming in 2015 from a couple of weeks ago at Comic-Con, many have wondered who will be the next Batman? Many fans had hoped that the rebooted Batman would be a younger Batman that is earlier his career but instead it seems like we may get a more experienced and older Batman. A list of actors who are rumored to play Batman has been revealed. The list included Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, and many others. It is said that Josh Brolin is currently the front runner but it doesn't seem like he will do it. Here is what they say about Josh:

From what I am hearing the frontrunner. Hot choice. If a nasty, edgy, Frank Milleresque bone breaking Batman is what Zack is looking for, well then this is the guy. The only thing that makes me think he won’t do it is because he went through a nasty divorce this year with Superman’s mom Diane Lane. Yes, I know they won’t have scenes together but there is a thing in  pre-production called a table read with the whole cast which could be quite awkward. That and junket/premiere appearances can be awkward as well. I can be totally wrong but who knows.

So even though Josh Brolin is becoming a big fan favorite out of the list of actors who WB's is looking at, he may not do it due to his recent divorce to Ma Kent, Diane Lane. Since it's reported Diane Lane will be back as Ma Kent, it will be kind of awkward for Brolin to be in a film with his ex-wife. Personally Brolin is my pick for Batman out of that list of actors for the role but I can understand him not doing it.

So since Josh Brolin maybe out, who's in? Well the Latino Review is suggesting that Gerald Butler (300) is on the list to be the next to receive the cape and cowl:

Yes, the Spartan King. He’s another dope actor who got the height, presence, acting chops, and is a winstrol cycle away from being a physically imposing macho Batman. The only negative is his accent which my twitter followers have been giving me shit over. Remember though, Butler already worked with Zack in 300 and is coming off a hit Olympus Has Fallen, the movie that murdered White House Down.

So with Brolin may be out, we now have Gerald Butler added to the list.

Just pay Bale what he wants.  Butler won't work.

People want to see batman throwing batarangs.  that's not real, why bale didn't do that shit.  Nolan's universe is as real as it can get.  batman ain't wearing tin suit to fight superman when this superman can orbit the earth.  they got their work cut out.  and the green rock don't work because superman's heat vision would still work.

caviezel could be a good choice. Adkins really does have the look though and I'd love them to strip batman of the silly suits that nolan put on him and free him up to show his martial arts and physical skills which he could bring to life. He just hasn't got the acting chops.

He is THE voice of Batman for the past 25 years!

I don't know why people don't get the part about batman/bruce wayne being psycotoc and having dual personality disorder, hence the voice change when in costume

He was good. I remember he got like 8 million for the batman roles, and 5 for non batman roles, and he stopped doing them. Said he didn't want to get type cast. I would have sold out.

I remember reading that he wanted the 3rd Batman to be a "Batman Begins" type of movie and WB hated the idea back then.

When they said no, he bailed... Could have been great.

He is by far the best Batman "yet".

Val Kilmer's performance is underrated.

I thought his Batman was not bad... The movie started to get campy.

The problem with the bad batman movies wasn't really who was playing batman, but the script and Joel Schumaker's campy / neon spin on it.

Val Kilmer did a very respectable job.

People "don't get it" because it's something you pulled out of your ass.  :D  Batman doesn't have dual personality disorder. 

He puts the costume on to scare criminals and to conceal his identity for fear of retribution against his loved ones.  The voice change is also part of that.  It's meant to intimidate crooks and keep them from figuring out who he is.  This was spelled out clearly in the Nolan/Bale movies.

Michael Keaton's Batman was a little nuts (that's why I liked him the most) but even for him becoming Batman was a conscience decision and not some kind of psychotic episode.

Exclusive:  Mark Strong hints at Lex Luthor 'Superman vs Batman' role

Mark Strong has hinted that he will play Lex Luthor in Man of Steel's untitled sequel.

Following the release of Zack Snyder's film, it was strongly rumored that Superman's iconic nemesis would feature in the sequel, with Strong named as one of several contenders for the role.

Asked by Digital Spy whether there was any truth to the rumors, Strong responded: "All I can say is... watch this space."

It was announced at Comic-Con last month that the Man of Steel sequel would feature Batman, and would draw heavily on Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, in which a grizzled Bruce Wayne faces off against Superman.

Christian Bale will not return to play Wayne, and it has been reported that Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling and Matthew Goode are among those being considered to take over the role.

Strong's new series Low Winter Sun starts in the UK on Friday, August 16 at 10pm on Fox.

Following the release of Zack Snyder's film, it was strongly rumored that Superman's iconic nemesis would feature in the sequel, with Strong named as one of several contenders for the role.

Asked by Digital Spy whether there was any truth to the rumors, Strong responded: "All I can say is... watch this space."

It was announced at Comic-Con last month that the Man of Steel sequel would feature Batman, and would draw heavily on Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, in which a grizzled Bruce Wayne faces off against Superman.

Christian Bale will not return to play Wayne, and it has been reported that Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling and Matthew Goode are among those being considered to take over the role.

Strong's new series Low Winter Sun starts in the UK on Friday, August 16 at 10pm on Fox.

1. Jon Hamm

No contest.

Jon Hamm has been playing a brilliant, talented, morally dubious savant with a shadowy past and multiple identities for 7 years. Got nominated for 8 Emmys and 5 Golden Globes (one of which he won) for it, too.

In case you’re reading this from under a rock, I’m refering to his role as advertising wunderkind Don Draper in AMC’s ridiculously acclaimed series Mad Men.

Seriously, Hamm has the perfect combination of gravitas, charm, maturity, wit, and vaguely disturbing mysteriousness that whoever plays Batman (and Bruce Wayne–sometimes we forget that they’re not exactly the same character) will need. Amusingly enough, one of Don Draper’s colleagues on Mad Men–Harry Crane (Rich Sommer)–once described Draper’s enigmatic private life by saying “He could be Batman for all we know!”

He could, Harry….He could indeed.

Could be Bruce Wayne if he was angrier and more down in the dumps!

like i said, they will go with another british actor.



NEW YORK Metro - Spooks actor Richard Armitage has emerged as a surprise front-runner to be the next Batman. The British star, 41, reportedly stands a good chance of replacing Christian Bale as the Caped Crusader.
A source told The Daily Star: ‘Richard is in with a real shout. He is well liked and has the skills to portray the dark and light in the Wayne/Batman character.’
According to the paper, Armitage impressed film bosses with his performance in The Hobbit as Thorin Oakenshield. The actor has also appeared in Captain America: The First Avenger, Robin Hood and The Vicar Of Dibley.
Warner Bros are said to be keen to cast a slightly older actor in the role of Batman. Rope Of Silicon reported that the studio is looking for someone in their ‘mid-40s’ to play the Caped Crusader, describing his latest incarnation as a ‘grizzled veteran who has been on the job for several years’. Superman/Batman is due for release in 2015.
