FAN CAST: The Man Without Fear

FAN CAST: The Man Without Fear

My fan cast for one of the best comicbook characters.

Daredevil Living in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of New York City, Matt Murdock is blinded by a radioactive substance that falls from an oncoming vehicle. Yet while he no longer can see, the radioactive exposure heightens his remaining senses beyond normal human ability. His father, a boxer named Jack Murdock, supports him as he grows up, though he is later killed by gangsters after refusing to throw a fight. After donning a yellow and black, and later a dark red, costume, Matt seeks out revenge against his father's killers as the superhero Daredevil, fighting against his many enemies including Bullseye and the Kingpin. Daredevil's nickname is "the Man Without Fear".




DAREDEVIL








Jamie Bamber: Bamber's take as Lee Adama in Battlestar Galactica series shows that he can already run the gamut from action hero to legal defender. Eric Bana and Ian Somerhalder are another good choices.

Daredevil: As a child, Matt Murdock was blinded by radioactive waste but also had his other senses heightened to super-human level allowing him to "see" in the dark. By day he is a successful defense attorney but by night he fights crime as the vigilante Man Without Fear Daredevil.




BATTLIN' MURDOCK




Jeffrey Dean Morgan: He is not strange to CBMs, having acted in Watchmen and The Losers. A pretty good actor who seems perfect for the role for me.

Battlin' Jack Murdock: The father of Matt "Daredevil" Murdock. Battling Jack was a boxer. He was told to take a fall in a boxing match but refused. In order to save his son, he placed him in an orphanage.




FOGGY NELSON




Seth McFarlane: He, Jason Segel and Patton Oswalt are the only dudes to make Foggy live, in my opinion. Between them, I choosed Seth.

Franklin "Foggy" Nelson: The best friend of Daredevil, and almost as good a lawyer as Matt Murdock.




KAREN PAGE




Keri Russell: A weird choice, I know, but she looks the part and I can imagine her as a sweet secretarie...

Karen Page: Karen Page was a secretary for Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson. Matt and Foggy immediately began competing for her attention which caused tension between the two friends until she revealed to them that she was in love with Daredevil.




ELEKTRA




Olga Kurylenko: I was going to cast Milla Jojovich, but I keeped her for another character and casted Olga instead. I only saw her in Quantum of Solace, where she wasn't bad, and not only she looks the part, she also is HOT.

Elektra: Elektra is Daredevil's most fearsome enemy as well as his former lover. But she is most renowned as being the greatest assassin in the World.




STICK




Doug Jones: He is a great actor, you may know him from Hellboy. I don't know why, I can imagine him as the character, teaching Bamber martial arts. He isn't too famous (like Terence Stamp), so it wont be like: It's Terence Stamp, and he is playing Stick!, so it would give low profile to the character.

Stick: Stick is a brilliant blind master of martial arts. At some point Stick traveled to the United States and met Matt Murdock who would later become the crimefighting hero Daredevil. Stick not only trained Daredevil in martial arts techniques, but also helped him learn, control and eventually master his radar sense.




KINGPIN




Vincent D'Onofrio: I just can't beleive that nobody casted him as Kingpin before. He isn't a bad actor and he is a little bit chubby. PERFECT for the part in my opinion.

Kingpin: The self-proclaimed Kingpin of Crime. He is one of the most prominent figures of organized crime in the whole US east coast.




BULLSEYE




James Marsters: I love Fassbender for Bullseye, but I wanted to go original. Not only a good actor, he also looks like the character and can play a bad guy...

Bullseye: A deadly Killer for hire capable of using practically anything as a lethal projectile weapon with flawless accuracy. He is one of the most psychotic and sadistic characters in Marvel and serves as one of Daredevil's most dangerous foes.




BEN URICH




Bryan Cranston: A versatile actor, see him in Breaking Bad. He would be great as a lot of characters but I choose Urich.

Ben Urich: Ben Urich is a investigative journalist for the Daily Bugle who uses his knowledge of Daredevil and Spider-man to get information on the top criminals known to man.




THE OWL




Clancy Brown: I was going to cast him as Kingpin, but I thought that he would own as the Owl. He looks the part and he needs o act in a CBM. He would be great!

Owl: A regular opponent of Daredevil and Spiderman who has a constant quest and thirst for power.




PURPLE MAN




Til Schweiger: You need someone smart and big to play this role. Til is both. 'Nuff said!

PurpleMan: A former spy, professional criminal, and would be conqueror, Zebediah "The Purple Man" Killgrave is a master mind-controller with violet-hued skin.




MR. FEAR




Zachary Quinto: He is amazing playing villians, and it would lovely to see him playing Mr. Fear.

Mr. Fear: Mr. Fear was a classmate in law school of Daredevil's, Larry Cranston. He holds a grudge with Daredevil. Cranston turned down the Hoods offer to join.




TYPHOID MARY




Milla Jojovich: She is hot, can kick your ass and also can act. She seems to fit...

Typhoid Mary: Typhoid is a professional criminal. Mary is a former actress. Together they spell trouble for Daredevil. She has recently joined the Shadow Initiative under the alias of Mutant Zero.

- Jamie Bamber's great, but Daredevil is listed at 6', and Jamie's 5'9". My picks range from Michael C. Hall and Misha Collins to Matt Damon and Matthew Fox.
- Nice pick for Battlin' Jack Murdock.
- Hey! It seems like someone has my choice for Foggy Nelson! Kudos, partner!
- Olga can kick ass, but Elektra is of Greek-American decent. I haven't seen any movies where she can speak American.
- GREAT Kingpin.
- Ooh, Bryan Cranston as Ben Urich? That would be killer.
- Not sure what to think of Clancy as Owl. I think it could work.
- I hear Til Schweiger's a pretty strong choice for Purple Man.
- I think Milla would be excellent as Typhoid Mary. I wonder what happened with Katee Sackhoff, she expressed interest in playing the character.

A+ fancast. Hey, would be a bro and check out my Excalibur fancast. Hurry up, because I'm cleaning house and starting over with new fancasts!!!

Good fan cast, very original but I just can't stand Seth McFarlene. The man is completley void of any sort of originality. I really hate him. But other than him the cast is excellent, very well done.

Not bad. Kurylenko is the only one I don't like. She's a bad choice for Elektra. Course I can't quite think of a good choice either.

Hey, AXEL, bud, NICE WORK!

I'm a kind of a stickler as everybody knows on here
but I really like Jamie Bamber for DD/MATT!
He may be just 5'9" but with shoe-lifts he could
easily pass for THE MAN WITHOUT FEAR!
Now, this is the look to look for when casting
DD.

Now my choice, MISHA COLLINS, is the ideal height
and persona for MATT MURDOCK/DAREDEVIL but JAMIE
is another fine candidate for the role. Matt is
not a giant guy, he's sort of an everyman's
superhero.

Just an average-sized average kinda Joe with the
exception of the blind radar thing that gives him
an edge. But he's still merely human altho' trained
to death in hand-to-hand combat and acrobatics and
worked-out to a powerful musculature!
If ya ever look at Olympic-level gymnists you
will see some of the most muscular and powerful guys
on the planet, plus they are as limber as silly
putty! LOL

Great unique KINGPIN pick! Vince is a 6'4' honestly
"BIG GUY" and such an amazing actor, he would be
perfect as Wilson Fisk! That is now my favorite
all-time pick for THE BIG BAD BALD DUDE! Just put
him in a slight fat-suit (he's already quite chunky)
and you have the king of KINGPINS! Wonderful choice!

Clancy Brown is great for the owl but I got him for
J. JONAH JAMESON!

Everybody fits in here except OLGA! She is Russian
and ELEKTRA is Greek, she just doesn't fit ELEKTRA
NACHIOS at all. Elektra has a very swarthy
(brownish) complexion and OLGA is as pale as a sheet!
LOL
But I can let that slide actually and would surely
watch and enjoy this casting in a DD FILM!

Heck JENNIFER GARNER is not exactly Greek-looking
but then again that is known as one of the worst
casting choices in all CBM history.

Like ROADDOG@ says...A+ Casting!

ABZ@ "I" acknowledge you, bud!
I don't think AXEL meant any huge
disrespect but he should be using
his own pictures!

I do believe you were the first one to
come up with the Bamber pick! And what
an excellent pick it is!

Hey everybuddy, how about if we all
strive hard not to rob each other's pictures
and try and get along on here!

I may have been a little harsh on some
people here but I only meant well, to
give a good constructive comment or
debate. But I'm trying to live up to
a New Years resolution to strive to be a lot
kinder to my fellow CBM.COM-ERS & fancasters
& fan-fiction-ers!

Heck, were all fellow members here and
should act accordingly!
Not that I'm trying to preach or anything
cuz I've been guilty too of my share of
surliness!

But we're still free to trash the TROLLS!
LOL

What do you mean one of the best? He IS the best! :P

Anyway onto the cast...
I really like Bamber as Daredevil, his my second choice for DD. A very close second behind Chris Pine.

JDM would rock as Battlin' Jack! But it's a bit to small for him now.. my choice for Jack is Jean Claude Van Damne.

Foggy is is really hard to cast but McFarlane seems like a good pick.

Your Page is alright.

Olga would make a good Elektra, she's my second choice behind Jordana Brewster (Credit to DDD for that excellent pick!)

Very Good Stick!

LOVE your Kingpin.. he's the best choice I've seen.. EVER!

Meh on your Bullseye. Fassbender FTW!!!

I like your Urich but i reckon he's alot better suited as Commish Gordon, but still.. he'd nail the role! Maybe he could play :P

Great Owl pick although I prefer John Glover for the role.

While I like your Purple Man pick, Joaquin Pheonix is PERFECT for it!!!

Brilliant Mr. Fear! I Love it!

Same with Milla Jojovich as Mary, Top pick!

Overall.. i'm loving this cast. Kingin's gotta be my favourite though!

You always produce quality fancasts.. keep it up!

@ABZ The Daredevil pick was yours? Sorry for not credit, I saw that pick googling, but I didn't knew it was YOURS.
And the picture isn't yours, you used it, but it isn't yours... I found it on the Internet...

@DDD Olga isn't pale, see her in Quantum of Solace:

All good except Elektra. She should be Played by Stana Katic
DDD
DDD - 2/7/2011, 4:31 PM
OK, AXEL@ but I still don't see her as
Elektra! :)

I like the suggestions of Jordana
Brewster (my favorite), Yummy! And or
Stana Katic!
