The Starjammers have had many adventures across the universe, many of them on Earth, during which Christopher Summers finally met his long lost sons, now X-Men. At times, the group ran with Professor X and even his consort, the Shi'ar ruler, Lilandra.

JOSH @ Would luv this movie!

I like JOSH up there for CORSAIR a billion times better than for GAMBIT!!! Can't see BALE though!

But dude, you are starting to use the same actors for the same universe all the time now!! PURNELL, WORTHINGTON, HENDRICKS, YVONNE, DURRAND, HEIGEL???

I like it though man, but how about different actors!? ; p

Anyways good work man, it would be a MARVEL Epic!!

Hey, does FOX own the rights to STARJAMMERS???!!


JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 2/4/2010, 3:10 PM
CorndogBurglar: Thanks man! :)

LEE: Thanks dude! No idea who own the rights but I'm guessing that its Fox! (Noooo!!!)

Actually, I'm not using the same actors as such...

You see, I no longer want Purcell for Venom or Rhino so he was free to be cast as Raza and I've only ever cast Worthington as Superman - who's a DC character! I cast Hendricks as MJ ages ago but I've made different picks since then!

Strahovski is my #1 choice for Ms. Marvel and as the character was once Binary it makes sense to cast the same actress! I've never used Durand before and Heigl used to be my Ms. Marvel choice but as she isnt anymore I was also free to cast her in another role!

'Nuff said! ;)

'Nuff said! ;)


Cool, but PURNELL is a perfect VENOM!! ; p

Dude you cast WORTHINGTON for the original Human Torch lol, but thats cool if you have changed your mind!!

Yeah actually you aint cast DURAND, my bad! ; )


Catching up on on the new 24 man at the min!!

How far are you on LOST?? I'm up to series 4 now lol!


Talking LOST, again, best casting for JOSH ever, he'd own that part!

this would rock. the starjammers are cool as shit. There also could be a cyclops/corsair tie-in.
Batmanknight
Batmanknight - 2/4/2010, 5:01 PM
Starjammers are the best man.

Great cast as always dude. and dont listne to LEE cause there are way more characters than there are good actors to play them.

HEY GUYS CHECK OUT MY SUICIDE SQUAD PREVIEW HALF WAY DOWN THE FAN FIC SECTION

I like all your picks. Man you got some real hot women in this one.
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 2/4/2010, 5:58 PM
LEE: Ah, you've got me there - I forgot about casting Worthington in that part, lol! I've watched the first 4 or 5 episodes of the latest season of 24 and right now I'm about 16 episodes into Season 2 of Lost! :) Holloway is an amazing actor and although I would've loved to have cast him as more of an A-List character, I just think he's perfect for Corsair!

sagekilz: Yeah, as long as its not made by Fox a Starjammers movie would be epic!

Sarah: Thanks, and welcome to CBM! It's always nice to have a beautiful lady join the ranks! :) I guess I have done a fair few casts...I blame having too much time on my hands, lol!

BatmanKnight: Cheers dude - I know exactly what you mean! For example, I can think of about 8 different characters that Jeffrey Dean Morgan would do an amazing job with! Some actors would be perfect for more than just one role and in all honesty at a certain point you do run out of actors to cast (as I'm beginning to after almost 50 casts, lol!)

Dmon: Thanks man - I always try to put at least ONE amazingly hot woman in my casts...this one just happens to have loads, lol! :)

OZY: Thanks dude! :) I use Microsoft 'Paint' (found under 'Accessories' on the Start bar) Just copy and paste the images into that program and you should be able to resize them and line them up next to each other! Once you find that program its pretty easy to get the hang of as long as you find similar sized pictures! Hope that helps!

Wadey09 - 2/4/2010, 10:14 PM
cool cast @Josh!
one problem:
how old is Corsair supposed to be?
How old is Cyclops' daughter supposed to be?
it looks like maybe a fifteen year difference between grandfather and grandaughter.
i'm not familiar with Marvel Girl so much, i'm working on it but how much older is Corsair compared to Cyclops in this MCU you are building?
just curious.
DogsOfWar
DogsOfWar - 2/4/2010, 10:26 PM
Good cast Josh!!

I really like all the female picks-spot on. O'Quinn is a nice prof pick as well

As Wadey is alluding to, maybe Corsair should be a little older. It would open up your fancast to some cool actors a little past superhero prime. Brad Pitt or even Liam Neeson could work off the top of my head.

Glad you did this, any of the other suggestions I sent you work for ya at all?

DDD
DDD - 2/5/2010, 1:23 AM
@Josh, glad ya finally got this done! Been waiting for this!

This is a perfect casting!!! I mean PERFECT!

Kevin as Ch'od was my choice too! He would own that part!

Holloway as Corsair is brilliant! He has that swashbuckler
feel to him that Corsair has! I like him better than Bale
for this roll! Bale would be OK though!

I believe I was the first to use Terry O'Quinn for Xavier!
But it doesn't matter cuz he is great for Prof X!

Monica is a shoe-in for Lilandra!

Man, I would pay a ton of money to see Christina Hendricks
in that Polaris outfit!!! (drool)

This is absolutely perfect @Josh, now I don't have to do
my Starjammers fancast cuz this is virtually the same cast
I chose! Man you are fast! I'm gonna start calling you
QUICKSILVER!!! lol

LEEE777
LEEE777 - 2/5/2010, 5:00 AM
JOSH @ Kudos, i'm about the same with 24!!

And yep he is JOSH!

Damn, how far down are you? Fan-fic's tuning into a joke!
DDD
DDD - 2/5/2010, 5:57 AM
Man, you are right @Leee!

@Josh has an excellent fancast here
with a lot of obvious work put into
it and down the line he went! Damm!

He should repost this farther up above
all the flotsam & jetsam!!!

I wouldn't mind at all if he did!
Damm!

Shaman - 2/5/2010, 7:40 AM
Awesome cast, my friend!!! NO BALE :)
DDD
DDD - 2/5/2010, 8:13 AM
BTW guys! Josh Holloway is 40 years old!
I think that's old enough for Corsair!
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 2/5/2010, 9:10 AM
teabag: Thanks man! :)

Wadey09/DOGS: Thanks guys! I understand what you're both saying and neither of you are wrong but I guess that the first part of the cast is based on the early adventures of the team, whereas the second part is based more on the current Marvel timeline with the new team! (mainly to make the cast bigger as it would've been too short if I hd just cast the original members, lol!)

I guess that if characters like Havok were to appear with Holloway's Corsair, it would have to be a younger actor and the same applies if Corsair were to appear with Worthingtons Havok as it would then have to be an older actor! As I said though, they're based off two different times in the Marvel Universe so ignore the second half and the first half is what I'd like to see in a Starjammers movie, lol! :D

Oh, and DOGS - I did get your list but I just havent had chance to reply sorry bud! I'll make sure to take another look later and get back to you!

OZY: No worries - good luck!

DDD: Thanks a lot bud! I dont care if you have a few of the same choices (great minds think alike after all!) I still want to see your Starjammers cast! :) Bale was sort of a second choice because I wasnt sure how people would react to Holloway as Corsair...personally, I think Holloway is perfect for the role but Bale would probably bring his own unique spin on the character! I had a feeling that I had seen O' Quinn cast as Prof. X but wasnt sure...thanks for putting that particular idea in my head, lol! Dude, I would kill someone to see Hendricks in that Polaris outfit!! ;)

And yeah, you and LEE are right! As much as I hate doing it, reposting has become a necessity if you want more than 3 people to see your cast!

Shaman: Lol, thanks dude!

LEEE777 - 2/5/2010, 1:10 PM
JOSH @ What ya on about, you is the KING of REPOSTERS!!!

; p

Ahhhhh we still luv ya man and again great cast (CEPT purcell LOL).


By the way, i wont be able to see HOLLOWAY as anyone else now dude, good call!
CRITIC17
CRITIC17 - 2/5/2010, 3:17 PM
Great cast @josh!!!! Loving my man Sam as Havok!!! I also recently got to catch up on Chuck (I had not seen the rest of season 2 and just started 3) and I have to say... Ryan McPartlin would make a great Cap!!!! But, not as much as Sam Worthington.
DDD
DDD - 2/5/2010, 3:38 PM
Great, @Josh, you reposted! I'm glad you did that!
Now more people will be able to see this perfect
fancasting!

I hadn't chosen a guy for Corsair yet in my
STARJAMMERS casting but since you chose Holloway
I can't see anybody else for the part! Josh
Holloway is the epitome of Corsair!

So for me to do a Starjammers fancast with basically
the same acotrs would be silly and redundant!
This is the definitive STARJAMMERS cast and I'd be
the first in line to see this kick-butt movie!

This is one I'd really actually like to see happen!
I say we try and get some financial backing and
go ahead and try and make this movie! I'll talk to
Mr. Eastwood about directing this and if he puts
his name to it we will get all the financial backing
we need! lol
Of course that will be next week after I win the lotto!
LMAO

JoshW: Nice cast but I usually agree with you on your casting. I dont see Bale as Corsair, but everyone else is dead-on in my opinion. Maybe in your next fan cast we can see his wife Katherine Anne and his other son Vulcan(the son who killed him).
