FAN CAST: Old Man Logan by JoshW

FAN CAST: Old Man Logan by JoshW

Here are my choices for who I’d like to see star in a movie adaptation of the excellent Old Man Logan! As well as Logan and his family, in the cast are my choices for each of the main characters including Hawkeye, Black Bolt, Red Skull, Banner, Ashley Barton and more!

JoshW: Old Man Logan is without a doubt one of my all time favourite comic book arcs. Written by the brilliant Mark Millar with stunning art by Steve McNiven, it’s amazing from start to finish. Although I normally include small bios for each of the characters I feature in my casts, I haven’t done that this time simply because anything that I say would have ruined the story for anyone who hasn’t yet read it. If you have read it I hope you enjoy seeing my take on who I’d like to see play those that were featured and if not, I hope this cast is interesting enough that you’ll want to go and buy the graphic novel afterwards! Anyway, enjoy! J

Nobody knows what happened on the night the heroes fell. All we know is that they disappeared and evil triumphed and the bad guys have been calling the shots ever since. What happened to Wolverine is the biggest mystery of all. For 50 years, no one has heard hide nor hair from him... and in his place stands an old man called Logan. A man concerned only about his family. A man pushed to the brink by the Hulk Gang. A man forced to help an old friend - the blind archer, Hawkeye - to drive three thousand miles to secure his family's safety. Get ready for the ride of your life, Logan!

Great fan cast! Josh Brolin as Logan just doesn't feel right to me though. I'd switch it around so it's Harrison Ford for Logan and Kris Kristofferson for Hawkeye. I would love to see this movie, though it probably wouldn't sell well being that not a lot of people are familiar with the Marvel mythos.

JOSH @ You've used my old man BRUCE WAYNE from my FRANK MILLER DARK KNIGHT casting as OLD MAN LOGAN lol??

Dunno man all i see is, is him as a made up old Bruce Wayne! But saying that he'd do a good job!!

Love the rest of the casting though but you have left Zero info on who anyone is, i don't know some of these actors?

Plus if you hav'nt read this comic its just pictures up there lol, luckily i have but not everyone has!

Dude this is why we get so many castings that are just pictures from other ppl, coz if the more seasoned fan-casters do it, they think why not, then we get a billion castings a day in fan fic lol!

Dude i never said this before to you but i wanna know why you want these actors for the parts, and who they are and maybe what they've done?

I have no idea who MUSSO, ELLE FANNING, DEVINE, RAISON, RUSSOM, JADE WILSON and PAGE KENNEDDY is??

Hey don't hate man, just saying, i love all your other parts for the roles, so great work on them man!!

As for OLD MAN LOGAN, Clint Eastwood would own the part (maybe he's a bit too old?), but Brolin's cool!

Anyway good stuff man!

P.S. Damn i've got a lot of fan-fic to go through since i last came in brb in a bit!

My favorite is Rainn Wilson for Ultron 8. Dont know why. Just seems right.
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 3/18/2010, 6:42 AM
Yeah, Rainn Wilson for Ultron 8 Is perfect dude very cool call on that!!!

BANNER and RED SKULL are perfect too!!!

Oh and BLACK BOLT, DONOVAN an TOBIAS!


P.s. just been in the X-MEN 4 article further down, not reading all that right now lol.

BLADE44 - 3/18/2010, 7:37 AM
THUMBS UP ON YOUR OLD MAN HAWKEYE and ASHLEY BARTON PICKS.... NICE!

I also like Brolin for Wolverine at 5'10" around 200lbs
with his acting skills he's a better fit than the towering nice guy Wolverine HOSS JACKMAN at 6'2".

Nice touch on explaining why you dont have info on the actors and the characters.
although like LEEE mentioned
I'm not famailar with a few of the actors and Im a little shaky
on the old man Logan storyline.

Bamf7 - 3/18/2010, 7:42 AM
I like most of it dude! Can't see Famke Jansenn though. (She's Jean Grey to most X-Men movie fans!) And no to anything with Mitchell Musso!

Love the rest of it dude!

Blackreverend - 3/18/2010, 8:20 AM
Well this is disappointing...

You got a great cast but I still haven't read the Old Man Logan story. It's on my "Graphic Novels to buy list" but I don't know the characters and quite a few of the actors.

N people say I could put more info...

This is a new era in Fan Casting with higher expectations. It doesn't have to be as visually attractive as my articles. I'm an artist I can't help but add a little color. Although I did expect more on the characters and actors picked for their parts.

That put aside, How do you make the links to your older Fan Casts? Or fonts colors and italics. I can't remember the codes...
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 3/18/2010, 8:49 AM
jusme6: Thanks man! I couldn’t see Ford as Logan though and although Kristofferson looks perfect for Hawkeye, I don’t think he'd be right in the role. Unfortunately, you're more than likely right and this will never get made! It relies so much on the reader having a good knowledge of Marvel history, it would be hard for a regular person or casual fan to enjoy a movie adaptation. Some minor changes could sort that though, so fingers crosses, lol!

LEE: Dude, you know I don’t care about DC! ;) Now you mention it I do remember you casting him in that role and I'm sure he's do a great job but I wasn’t thinking of that when I made this cast because as an actor I think that Brolin suits this role perfectly! I'll add a little info an what the above actors have been in later but as I've said above:

"Although I normally include small bios for each of the characters I feature in my casts, I haven’t done that this time simply because anything that I say would have ruined the story for anyone who hasn’t yet read it."

As for why I've chosen the actors, as I've told you before no one ever took any notice of that and I always ended up repeating myself in the comments section. If anyone wants to know why I've made a particular choice they can ask me here where I would rather discuss it as I often do with you! That's just the way I want to do my casts and I don’t plan on changing that anytime soon! :) Unfortunately, I think that Eastwood would indeed be too old although a few years ago he would have been the perfect choice for this role! Glad you like the rest of my choices though, thanks mate!

longbowhunter: Thanks, that's exactly how I felt! His voice just suits the personality of thsi version of Ultron IMO!

blade40: Thanks bud! It was hard to come up with a few of these choices but I'm especially pleased you like those two as they were just a couple of the hardest! Yeah, I was thinking the same thing with Brolin. If you combine his performances in W. and No Country for Old Men, you pretty much have the look/personality sewn up for Old Man Logan right there, lol! I think I'll give a quick update on who the actors are in a few minutes but I'm not going to explain who the characters are because it will just ruin the storyline for anyone who hasn’t read it! It's so full of twists, turns and big reveals even the most minor of details would spoil it and I know how frustrating that is from experience!

ANIL: Cheers dude! Lol, I hate Seth Green so I'll have to say no to him and although Kristofferson most definitely looks the part, I don’t think he's the right guy for the job - Ford is far better suited IMO! Glad you like Brolin and the rest of my choices though man, thanks!

Bamf7: Thanks man! :) As it's been 3 years since the last X-Men movie and with Jansenn now too old to play Jean IMO, I don’t think it would be a problem if she were to play this character especially as, like with Russo, it's only a pretty minor part!

BlackReverend: I'm glad you like the cast, thanks. I dont think you quite understand why I haven’t included info on who the characters are. As I've said above, "...anything that I say would have ruined the story for anyone who hasn’t yet read it". As you haven’t read the graphic novel, if I had given just one line on what role the Red Skull plays for example, it would have completely ruined the twist that involves that character in the sixth or seventh chapter! You wanted me to tell you who Ashley Barton is? That's the second chapter ruined. It's common sense dude. And as I've frequently said, if you want to know why I've chosen an actor I'll tell you in the comments section. As for how to write in the fonts you mention and embedding links, just Google it and you'll find plenty of helpful websites with step-by-step instructions. That's earier than me trying to explain it here to tell you the truth! :)

peterparker420 - 3/18/2010, 9:00 AM
JOSH- This is the definition of the word EPIC!!!!

Brolin as Logan..WOW now that would be awesome! He is
just a GREAT ator and I can't get enough of him!

Janssen as Maureen..Now that is a great choice!...but I must ask why her?

also the KIDS you chose are good! especially
Jade Smith..he is turning out to be one hell of actor.

Harrison Ford as Hawkeye..That just blew me away! Brolin
and Ford on screen together that would be AWESOME!

Zoe Saldana as Ashley Barton...yum yum yum! I don't know about anyone else but I am starting to really LOVE Zoe as an actress! I really want to see her in "the Losers" to see hoe she does in a role like that!

Brendon Gleeson as Tobias..GREAT CHOICE! He was Awesome in "Gangs of New York"(one of my favorite movies) and his role looks really good in the upcoming movie "Green Zone".

James Caan as Red Skull- UMMM...HELL YA! Caan was AWESOME in "Misery", and is a great actor! He would make a GREAT red skull!

WOW this is a great fan cast and I understand WHY you DID NOT put up any descriptions as to why you choose these people in these roles. I say this was a SPOT ON fan cast and definetly one for the books!

GREAT JOB MAN! (I'm sure I'll comment again) LOL!

Brandonwlobo - 3/18/2010, 9:34 AM
I liked it, but I agree with Lee, if there was some other way to do it it would be better, great idea with putting the shows they've been on there, I just did a New Gods casting and it's already almost to second page, I wish that Fan Fic was split into Casting and stories. good job though, I think it's got a lot of thought put into it, but I like hearing why someone chose them.
ASSASSIN666
ASSASSIN666 - 3/18/2010, 9:58 AM
Damn that is an awesome casting! Really wicked f**king talent you picked for this one, I wish we could get this one on film.
Blackreverend
Blackreverend - 3/18/2010, 10:15 AM
Good Answer lol... really... to everything... WORD!!!
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 3/18/2010, 10:41 AM
PETE: Thanks bud, as always you're too kind! :) This is exactly what I mean - you've told me why you like my choices and now I'm going to respond! Isnt that better than you just reading it above and then saying, "Good cast"!?! I'd rather talk about it with you and respond directly to you - I have no problem with those who do it because I find it interesting to read why - it's just the way that I choose to do it and I dont plan on changing anytime soon as long as you guys like these casts!

I know Brolin is a popular choice to play an older Bruce Wayne (as LEE pointed out above) but I think he's even more perfect for this role. He is an amazing actor and it blows my mind to think of the amazing chemistry him and Ford would more than likely share! I cast Janssen in that role for a few reasons really - first is the obvious one and that's the fact that she looks the part! However, she's also a great actress and although this would only be a minor part I believe that she'd bring the right quaities to the role needed for a character like Maureen! Her performance in Taken was a big influence as well. The kids were a pain to cast to be honest! Again though, I think they'd be good in two fairly minor roles while Smith is such a talented young actor I'd love to see him play Dwight even though the character only has a few lines!

I know Saldana is probably a little old for Ashley but I couldnt think of a better actress! She's been fantastic in everything I've seen her in (especially the movies I've listed above!) and I too am looking forward to seeing her in The Losers! Oh, and she's hot as hell, lol! Again, I know that Tobias may seem like a minor role for an actor like Gleeson but my God, he's perfect for it IMO! I completely forgot that Caan was in Misery (love the book and movie) but the guy is one of the best actors alive - of course, he's completely wrong for the younger, First Avengers Red Skull but for this version? I think he'd do an amazing job!

Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed the cast man - thanks again for the kind words!

Brandonwlobo: Thanks - after reading some of the comments here today I'll definitely cnsider including some more info on why I've made the choices I have! However, that's not something I enjoy doing especially when it's ignored by the majority and I'd rather discuss it here in the comments section anyway! I'm sorry to hear that about your New Gods casting - still, I hear that CBM has a new site planned dedicated to "Fan Fic", so I'm hoping that will work as many of my casts have often been buried within a few short hours as well!

ASSASSIN666: Thanks man! :) It was difficult to cast some of these characters and even more difficult to find the right actors but overall I think this would make for one awesome movie! I'd love to see them somehow get a version of Old Man Logan on the big sceen too...as long as it's not made by Fox, lol!

Blackreverend: Lol, not a problem! If you need any more help with writing in different styles or embedding links just drop me an email! I'm more than happy to help!

peterparker420 - 3/18/2010, 11:19 AM
shaman- I don't know what happened but when did you turn
into a Dick? I usually like you're comments and
art, but not latly..that Ellen Page portrait
is NOT up to par, The hair is WAY off and the
neck and shoulders are not in proportion to
the size of the head. Sorry man not one of
you're best. And before you jump down my throat
I am an artist I know what I am talking about.
I have done many portraits, but I have now
been working on landscapes, and my color work.
sorry just my opinion!

JOSH- To tell you the truth I actuall like that you don't tell WHY you choose them in that role..I like to have a
chat about why you did, like with my above comment.
just do you're thing man! All you put out is QUALITY work
on here. So I really don't understand why SHAMAN is being this way. Anyway Brolin and Ford on the same screen..that is GOLD in my book! Yes Zoe is a little to old but not by much so I don't think it would be a big deal, for her to play the part. Janssen did put up a very memorable performance in TAKEN, and I agree, though the part is small she would make it very memorable. Again looking foward to the ULT. FF/X-Men cast!!

Great stuff Josh. Love em all except maybe Brolin..I'm not saying he couldn't pull it off, but I dunno..
safecrash
safecrash - 3/18/2010, 12:07 PM
WOW, that was a wonderful casting. If this movie ever gets made, I'd definately see it.

Scotty: I'm not too keen on Musso as Scotty, I mean, he's a Disney actor, and I don't like Disney actors. My pick is Logan Huffman (as seen in V, LOL)

Jade: Elle Fanning would be better as Luna (Quicksilver's daughter) or Valeria Richards (Reed and Sue Richards' daughter). So I choose Bailee Madison for Jade.

Emma Frost: Raison is a second choice for me. Rosamund Pike would be a great Emma Frost.

The ones I didn't comment are the ones I agree with, but I think you already know it LOL.

JoshWilding - 3/18/2010, 12:53 PM
PETE: My friend, you've just summed it up better than I ever could. I love how guys like DDD and LEE go into detail but that's not me. That's not who I am. This is just the way I do my casts and as long as people like you are ok with that then I'll keep on going! And no, I ant quite get my head around it either! I completely agree with your points about the cast though! Out of interest, what do you think about my choices for The Hulk Gang?

SHHH: Cheers man! I'll head over and check my email ASAP!

ROR: Thanks mate! I was actually going to email you to tell you I had posted this cast because I remember talking to you about the arc a while back and know you're a fan! I have to say that I too have my reservations over Brolin. Dont get me wrong, I think he's the right guy for the job but I cant help but feel that there's another actor out there who would be even better..! I just bloody well wish I knew who it was, lol! ;)

ThalesNJ: Cheers bud, I'm glad you like the cast! :) I was racking my brains for young actors to cast (as apart from the ones suggested for Spider-Man, I really dont know many!) and I have to admit that casting Musso was based more on looks than anything else! I did check out a few clips of him on YouTube however and I definitely think he could handle a small part like this! Great choice with Huffman! I know I've cast him as someone but for the life of me, I honestly cant remember! Wow, even greater casting choice with Fanning as Luna - brilliant man, just brilliant! I could see Madison as Jade as well though, good thinking! Pike is a good choice for Emma but I'm sticking with Raison! Glad you like the rest though dude, thanks again! :)
peterparker420
peterparker420 - 3/18/2010, 1:55 PM
SHAMAN- I am sorry about calling you a dick..I truely
am, I put my two cents into the
situation for no reason, to me it sounded like
you were attacking JOSH for no reason other
than the fact that you think the fanfic
section turned to shit..and it did for a while
untill we got someone to regulate this area
for "qualitity control". Now that you explained
why you drew the portrait like that..I
understand where the infuence came from..I don't
mean to offend you and you're art cause you are
a great artist, it just felt like you were
attaching a friend and I didn't like it.


JOSH- The HULK GANG is good..YES even the dude from
supernatural is a good choice, and I say that
reluctently LOL! Stephen Lang is just so good
at playing BAD GUYS, that I can't debate that
choice. Jamie Pressly is AWESOME in
"my name is Earl" and another awesome choice
and then we get to "Sam"....UMMM You already
know I am not a fan of his acting, but yet
I can't think of anyone better to play Otis.
So the Hulk Gang is a THUMBS UP from me!
wade1210
wade1210 - 3/18/2010, 2:05 PM
If This was really made i don't think Famke Janssen could be in it as a different charecter since she is in the same franchise but i like the idea of Brolin as Wolverine
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 3/18/2010, 2:13 PM
Stubbyswof: Thanks dude, I was hoping you'd turn up after I saw your Old Man Logan comment yesterday! :) I read the story before starting this cast a few days ago - what a brilliant read! It's even better the second time around even if the twists arent so shocking or exciting! Very nice choice with Dawson! Like Saldana she may be a little old but she definitely has the right looka and attitude for the character! Great choice!

PETE: Haha, the fact that you dont like Supernatural was a big reason why I wanted to know what you thought! I know you dont watch the show but Padalecki's performance in the fourth season was what convinced me that he'd make a great Otis! You sum up why I picked Lang while Pressly is a great actress who's character on My Name is Earl isnt really taht far off from Miss Banner! Anyway, look on the bright side - it would only be Padalecki's voice and likeness in the movie, lol! ;D

wade1210: I understand why you feel that way about Jenssen but I think enough time has passed that it wouldnt matter especially as Maureen is a farily minor role! Glad you like my Brolin choice though, thanks!

tea: Lol, yeah I already saw through that when he came here and told me what Shaman had said! However, I cant help but take it personally when I'm attacked for no other reason than the fact I decide to post casts on a regular basis and choose to discuss my choices in the comments section rather than write paragraphs above. If the two of them (and they seem to be the only two that I can see) dont like it then I'd rather they not bother to comment at all which is why I've deleted their earlier remarks becuase I make these for both myself and people like you to enjoy and as far as I'm concerned, how I do that is up to me! And I'm glad you like the cast bud, thanks! :)
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 3/18/2010, 2:28 PM
Shaman/Scarface: No offence to either of you but I've deleted both your earlier comments and my own. I make these casts for both myself and the CBM community to enjoy and although I respect that you both dont like the way I do that, I dont want the comments section of this article to be filled with back and forth bickering. This is where I discuss the cast with those who take the time to comment and I intend to keep it that way. If you find my casts that offensive please just avoid them in future. Thanks.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHH
I'M FREAKEN OUT MAN

Alright now that I've calmed down I can speak. Alright I think its kind of silly taht we're all fighting about this. I know Fan Fic is important to some people. It shows off your true talent and who you think should be ina movie and yada yada yada. But we shouldnt fight each other about this. People have different ways of doing things. Shaman takes the time to write full paragraphs of awsome information, and i respect that cause its his way of doing things. Josh puts up pictures with small bios and thats it. I respect that cause its his way of doing things. The only truely awful creations are one paragraph stories, cast lists, and one person fanfics. The thing is, we all have our way of doing things and we shouldnt fight about it.

Now onto the fan cast
I really like it Josh, and i'm a big fan of this story arc. it is one of my favorite Marvel creations. But my choices for Wolverine and Hawkeye are Mickey Rourke as Wolverine and Billy Bob Thorten as Hawkeye. I like your choices too though

Hawksblueyes - 3/18/2010, 2:36 PM

HAWKS: Cheers mate! Wow, damn good idea with Gibson! Add a little make-up and I can see Old Man Logan staring right back at me! Superb casting choice dude! I've noticed that you often make some great suggestions in fact! Have you conssidered doing a fan cast? (sorry if you've done one in the past and I've forgotten - it's hard to keep up, lol!)

DOGS: Thanks bud!

Okay, I couldn't leave my 2 word comment there alone any longer. Just trying to have a little light hearted fun!

Good casting Josh.

I like Brolin as Logan-He can play the badass very well.
Really like Ford for Hawkeye- could give the role a good run.

Not sure about Cromwell for Banner although not sure about this version, how the character is. I know this might sound goofy but I always see Banner as a rather average to small unassuming guy. Cromwell is 6'6".

I have not read this book and as I read from your intro (because I read the entire article from start to finish) thanks for not throwing out spoilers on this one.

josh: Thank you sir. I have one fancast to my name. It was done months ago and it has a slightly different theme than other casts I have seen. I am currently putting together an Uncanny X-Men using the same concept. I'll leave the link add. check it out and let me know what you think.

DOGS: Lol, I actually thought that was a rather brief comment in comparison to your past ones! :) I'm pleased you like it bud! Ford was the first person that came to mind when I started this cast - like Brolin, I think he'd really nail the characters look and personality! Brilliant point about Cromwell - I completely forgot about his height and I have to say I picture Banner in the exact same way that you do! Camera tricks could sort that though I guess! I originally planned on casting Ian McKellen in the role...what would you have thought of that?

I know that the majority of users here have read this story but it's because of people like you who havent that I didnt include any character info this time out. I came onto CBM few weeks ago and saw someone talking about the ending of The Wolfman a few days before I went to see it...I was gutted and that's what i wanted to avoid! There would have been no way I could have described the Red Skull's character here without it ruining the sixth or seventh chapter for you! I'm glad you appreciate that man!

tea: Lol, you should've seen the way I used to do things before I came up with that... ;)

FutureFoe: Thanks again and I am grateful that you told me because I'd rather know how certain users feel towards me rather than have them be friendly to my face and run me down behind my back. My casts however, will remain the same as long as you guys keep enjoying them!

OZY: Thanks mate, you should check this out as soon as you get chance! It's a fantastic story full of twists, turns, laughs, tears and shocks! Not to mention the beautiful art by Steve McNiven! Anyway, I have to agree with you - I know that "Fan Fic" now has an editor to make sure that things stay in order and Jim is planning a new "Fan Fic" site but I guess that I must have missed the announcement of the so-called "new era in Fan Casting" as well, lol! I mean, when the hell did it happen?

The place is exactly the same as before apart from the fact that things seem to be less crowded and I'm guessing that's down to the fact a lot of users saw the message from Galactus and are now thinking twice about just posting anything and everything here! I wont drag up the Shaman incident again because it wouldnt be fair now I've deleted his earlier comments (as well as my own) as it would be one sided. But your comment above pretty much sums up my side of the argument we had.

HAWKS: Wow man, I just checked it out and what an excellent and unique bunch of choices! Pitt as Hawkeye, Jolie as Scarlet Witch and Ferrigno as Hercules all stand out as being especially brilliant! I cant wait to see you take on the X-Men! :)

Good casting Josh@!

Brolin would do a bang-up job with old Logan!

Harrison Ford is perfect for a blind ol' HAWKEYE!

This is an extremely hard story to cast!
That's why I never attempted it!

This story is kind of just for X-MEN and WOLVERINE
comic fans and would be hard to make for a wide
audience!

The only one I don't agree with is James Cromwell
for Bruce. Bruce is a smaller man. But again I'm
nit-picking! lol

Josh@ I like your fancasts just fine! They're always
well thought out and presented well! It's the silly
one person castings or brief stories and the just
thrown together fancasts I have a problem with!

OZY: Cool man. Yeah, I was sort of against the idea but as long as the "Fan Fic" tab is still here as well, I have no problem with posting my work in two places! Plus, with new tabs for everything I might even have a go at some art or stories! IMO, there's never been anything wrong with "Fan Fic" - yes, the one character casts are annoying but on a whole, everyone puts a lot of effort in and I dont see that anyone has the right to tell people to change especially when they dont contribute themselves!

DDD: Thanks bud! :) I'm glad you like my choices and c'mon dude you're being modest - you're a brilliant caster and I reckon you'd do a great job if you gave this cast a go! What have you hot planned next out of interest? (if you're keeping it under wraps then no worries!) I would have thought that it would be near impossible to ever see this movie get made because I cant get my head around how epic it would be! I think you're right about Cromwell...I forgot about what a giant he is! Thanks for your support as well. I love reading the detail you go into in your casts and I find it really interesting to read. However, that's not my strong point and I prefer to discuss thing in the comments section...it boggles my mind why that would bother anybody when some people post one or two character casts like the ones you mention an my cast almost always have 10-20 characters in them!

FutureFoe: Well, I've seen nothing so far that makes me think you're an asshole! You've got the guts to speak up so good for you man - that's better than behind someone's back huh? ;) I'm thinking of doing a Bioshock cast next - the ironic thing is because it's not a huge cast I was planning on going into more detail as to why I chose the actors, lol!

ANIL: That's probably the best advice I've heard! :) I plan on carrying on with business as usual despite the rubbish I've had to listen to today. I make these casts because I enjoy doing it and I enjoy seeing what you guys think - as long as I keep getting a positive response from you, I see no reason to change that! 'Nuff said bud and thanks again!

I can see Josh Brolin as Logan. But, I'd really like to see Viggo Mortensen play him. I think he'd do stellar.
