FAN CAST: X-Force Movie Anyone?

FAN CAST: X-Force Movie Anyone?

X-Force Movie... I wish...

So I've been sitting around and reading articles on upcoming movies and I thought to myself, "I could do this", so I decided to write one myself based on a movie that doesn't exist but should. At first I had to decide which team I should use. At first I wanted to go with the original team but ultimately I think the new X-Force team would be a great movie. It would obviously have to be more along the lines of an R rated movie due to the fact that they are the team Cyclops calls on as his covert ops team. Plus they definitely get their hands dirty. I think they should even use the first few issues to use as their story as well. It took me a little bit casting wise but I think this would be the team.

First off I would obviously pick Hugh Jackman as Wolverine because lets face it, he IS Wolverine. I can see Jackman doing this because he seems to love the character and plus his new movie is going to rock, nuff said bub!

Secondly, I was thinking about who I would like to cast as Archangel/Warren Worthington III and a few names came to mind. At first I thought Ryan Phillipe but I as good of an actor as he is, I just couldn't see it. And I know a lot of people liked Ben Foster as Angel but I think he looks to young for the part. Finally I decided on Paul Walker. I know people think he's not the best actor but I actually like most films he's done. I think he has the look and can pull off the role of Warren Worthington III/Archangel.



The next role is for the part of Domino/Neena Thurman and my one and only pick is Lena Headey. She show's everyone on a weekly basis in the Sarah Connor Chronicles that she is a chick you don't mess with. Plus Domino is an older woman who is a veteran at what she does.



The third one I had a little trouble with which was X-23/Laura Kinney. I had a couple actresses I wanted to use for this role and one of which was Devon Aoki but I decided not to use her because she is older than I picture X-23. So for my pick I went with Megan Fox because she is around the perfect age, she could pull off that X-23 attitude and let's face it, she's downright hot.



Next up is the role of Warpath/James Proudstar and I had a tough time coming up with a 7'2" Native American actor that could actually act so I decided to go with Rudy Youngblood from Apocalypto. He might not be very tall but I think he could pull off the role of Warpath. If not, I can settle with an unknown actor for the role.



Next up is Wolfsbane/Rahne Sinclair and Keira Knightley seems like she would be a good fit for the role. I know she's British but it's not too far off a scottish accent.



Lastly for the role of Elixir/Joshua Foley, I chose Sebastian Stan from The Covenant and his new role in NBCs Kings which might turn out to be a good show.



I know the movie will probably never happen but if did that is my casting call.

Hey, count me in where ever Keira Knightley is!!!

As for Warpath, nice pick but you could've used a few others as well:

-The Rock
-Litefoot (Nitewolf in Mortal Kombat Annihilation)
-Antonio Sabato jr.
-Dominic Purcell
-Oded Fehr

Oh and cudos on finding the only picture ever made where Megan Fox is NOT attractive LOL Christ, she looks like she has 3 inches of make-up (it's not supposed to show) :P

good call on the Megan Fox pic. I'll have to change it. And with Warpath, I like Dominic Purcell for the part.

I'll start off saying I LOVE the new X-Force comics. The covers are great! I think it's issue #3 with a close up a Wolfsbane about to devour a Purifier's head on the cover! It's so well drawn. The story is kind of jumpy though. I like this new Eli Bard character.

This would be a wonderful movie to make, but I think another 2 X-films would be necessary to set this up properly. I'm right on board with Lena Headey as Domino and Paul Walker for Angel. And the kid cast for Elixir has the look for sure. Kira Knightly is smokin as Wolfsbane too. Megan Fox as X-23? No way! Not ever. The chic is hot and from what I've seen her in has some talent, but she couldn't pull X-23. Laura Kinney requires a special actress who can stomp ass. And Warpath has to be a giant amongst them all. That leaves your guy out too. The actor doesn't have to be 7'2, but he does need to have a large presence in comparison to the other's. Dwayne Johnson could pull it off if he can do a more silent, honorable type.

Good Job! I love Lena Headey, so thanks for another great comic role for her!

Now that I have been looking at it, I agree with you on Warpath. Thanks to Shaman though, there are now better choices to have but I don't think the Rock is good for the role. Thanks for the kudos on the other characters though Myth. Also, what about Vanisher? It looks like they are going to make him a part of the team. Who would be a good pick for him? And Myth, do you have any ideas for X-23 because I'm stumped.

I got it! Summer Glau (Sarah Connor Chronicles) as X-23.

I have to say that x-force is my favorite comic right now!! with that said id have to agree with myth, as hot as megan fox is, x-23 dosnt seem in megan fox's range, im pretty stumped tho thinkin on who it can be, most definitly a girl in her 20's tho, anyways if they every did do x force it would most definitly be R rated

TheMyth - 3/10/2009, 6:48 PM
You're closer with Summer, she certainly has the build and look, plus she is cute. Actually, the role would somewhat be typecasting. I guess she'd be a good choice, just doesn't sit well. I'm waiting to see this Kristen Kruek chic in Street Fighter(DVD release of course). If she can do the fighting well in that movie then I'd say she has my vote.

Vanisher. Hmmm. Although he is being forced to help them currently because of Elixir, it is looking like he may be around for a while. Not sure, he is a loner by nature. Moreso than many characters. To tell the truth, I'm not great with the casting thing. Refer to Shaman. lol.

Well Shaman...any suggestions?

Yea shaman, who do u have for x-23???

Joslezio85 - 3/10/2009, 10:22 PM
i think danielle harris could be a really good x 23. But i don't like paul walker as angel. no offense. he is a good pick. i just cant see it.
Joslezio85
Joslezio85 - 3/10/2009, 10:24 PM
maybe toby hemingway?
Joslezio85
Joslezio85 - 3/10/2009, 10:31 PM
all around good picks though man. keep it up. i'd like to see some more come from you. a tip though, and i think most will agree. the actors have to look like they would mesh together on screen. know what i mean. you did excellent, just keep that in mind.

Cool pics, im not a huge fan of Walkers acting but hes the perfect Angel i reckon..has to be better than Ben Foster! Brain fart casting of the highest order. Also kudos for sticking with an authentic Native American actor for Warpath, Youngblood was amazing in Apocaypto. But i do think Proudstar needs to be bigger..the rock would be good. Couldnt think of a better Domino than Heady! (I love Domino by the way, awesome character) Fox might pull of X23..but i agree she wouldnt seem to have the chops for it, so far as we have seen anyway. My pic would be Christina Ricci, shes great at playing disturbed, emotionally detached characters..and not just because of Wednesday Adams! Check out the Opposite of Sex, Black Snake Moan, Buffalo 66. I havnt a clue who the dude is you picked for Elixir so i cant comment and as much as i love Kiera, im not sure shes right for Wolfsbane..but like Shaman, id certainly watch her try!

Joslezio, I like Danielle Harris as well for the role. Its a pretty good pick, but with toby Hemingway, I just think he's too young for Archangel. It has to be someone in their 30s. Archangel is a seasoned X-Man vet. Thank you for the kudos too and I will try to use your tip in future articles.

Rorschach, I think Ricci might work but I can't get over that she might be starting to look too old for the part. I see X-23 as someone who can look like their 18-20 years old. Regarding Elixir, he was the main bad guy from the Covenant and he will be appearing in the upcoming NBC show Kings.
Shaman
Shaman - 3/11/2009, 11:28 AM
Thanks for refering to me y'all :) Ricci is RAVEN!!! nuff said about her!

I actually don't like Harris or Glau for X-23 but do have the perfect pick for the role. You guys want a hottie that kicks ass and is "abrupt" to say the least... anyone of you thinking what i'm thinking? There was this HUGE deal about her being MAJORLY WRONG for an upcoming role she was begging for... anybody??? NO NOT EVA LONGORIA, god i hate her!!! How about Elisa Douche-ku?!?!?!?!? You guys have to admit, she has everything that THIS role requires.

not a bad pick man. Really like the X-23 pick though cause i just want to see more of megan fox. the only one i disagree with is with Rudy Youngblood just because i dont think he could buff up enough to make the part. he is a pretty skinny dude but i also dont really know of any other native america people that could fit the part. good job though again

i don't care who she plays. eliza dushku is the cream in my coffee.....yum.

I swear Shaman has a hard-on for Eliza Dushku. lol. We need to find the perfect comic character for her to portray. I don't feel X-23 is the one though. I'm sticking on my Kristen Kruek choice, assuming she can handle the choreography in Street Fighter, regardless of how bad the movie itself will suck. She has a bit of talent, she's an up and comer, and drop dead gorgeous. All her features suit the character of X-23 perfectly, from the dark hair and eyes to the small frame and sharp features. The more I think about it, the more I think they should bring the character in soon just so Kruek can play it. That's my view. I wanna say again how much I like the Paul Walker and Lena Headey cast's. Hey Shaman, I guess this means I got a hard-on for Lena. lol.

zinext - 3/11/2009, 4:43 PM
Ok i have a question(anyone can reply), what are the chances x-23 will appear in the Wolverine Origins movie?? My guess is she is probaly the best kept secret from the promos.
greenlanternsector2814
greenlanternsector2814 - 3/11/2009, 11:11 PM
i bet she will show up in a test tube or something like that...

ya know, i think ben foster did a really good job as angel. but it was a very pathetic role for him. i mean i love angel. he's always been one of my favorites. but ben foster is kind of (strangely) a hard ass. and they didn't really let him do much in x3. i don't feel the gave angel or ben foster the kind of recognition they deserved. just to say that.
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 3/12/2009, 7:25 AM
Ben Foster is a great actor, check out 3.10 to Yuma and 30 days of night. But he was WAY wrong for Angel. Angel is sposed to be tall, buff and not to sound fruity here but pretty much the best looking dude in the Xmen. So who did they cast? A short, skinny, fugly kid!
Shaman
Shaman - 3/12/2009, 10:58 AM
Actually Myth, i believe this is my first time attributing a role to "the douche", i'm really not that into her. I think Roar would atest i'm more into Knightley :) Kreuk would be a nice X-23, don't get me wrong.
Joslezio85
Joslezio85 - 3/12/2009, 9:54 PM
myth just likes to say hard on. and i agree with ror. very well put.

I thought it was you. I know you got a Tracy Lords thing. I bought Zack and Miri the other day, speaking of Tracy. Oh well, my bad, lol.

Hey guys, check out all the posts in the most recent "Deadpool is Weapon XI" article. It's got nearly 200 comments, but I researched alot and someone else helped and we are on to some pretty cool things. I am 99% sure Mr. Sinister will be in it at some point, not as a main player, but we will get to see him.

It's too bad Marvel doesn't have the full reigns with Spider-Man, the X-Men, or Fantastic Four. They could really do something good there.
Shaman
Shaman - 3/16/2009, 7:21 AM
Congrats on reaching 300 MYTH!!! That is kick ass :))

And i TOTALLY still have a thing for Traci Lords, in FACT, i'll still be into her even when she'll reach 50!!!

But she's not in the same "category" as Dushku and Knightly.
