Perhaps my favorite Super Hero team of all time would have to be the Marvel Knights. Partialy because of it's roster which contains mostly superheros who aren't really powerful (with some exceptions like Strange and Ghost Rider) like SOME of the Avengers or the JLA. Throughout the years the roster has included Daredevil, Spiderman, Punisher, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Ghost Rider, Blade, Shang Chi, Cloak, Dagger, Black Widow, Black Panther, Black Cat, Moon Knight, and Doctor Strange. The team was originally formed by Daredevil to battle the rock troll Ulik, the original members being Daredevil, Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Dagger and The Punisher, after words being joined by several other heroes.

The reason I dig this team is it's roster. They relate to us because allot of them come from a dark past because of murdered familiy members or losing something then taking a different path. Plus the heroes on this roster are all pretty cool.

Basically I would love to see these guys team up on the beig screen or maybe a TV series (not all of them because finding time to give fifthteen characters their screen time and doing it justice would be very difficult). I have put together a list of actors for each chacter that I think should be in the movie.

First I would pick Jason Statham to play the leader Daredevil. He's a good actor and I think the tone of his voice does fit with the tone of Daredevil's character. Plus he can kick ass to.



For Spiderman it would be best to stay with Tobey Maguire because the audiences (like myself) like him and are use to him.



Scarlet Johansson as The Black Widow. One because she's hot and two because she's been signed up for this role in Ironman 2, so I trust John Favreau made a good choice.


Thomas Jane as Ironfist. Great actor and I think he looks like Iron Fist to.


Of course if you have Iron Fist you got to have his buddy Luke Cage. My pick for Luke would be Tyrese Gibson. I mean just look at those guns and plus he looks like him.


Sam Rockwell as Moon Knight. I think Sam Rockwell would do a good job playing the mentally disturbed man that is Moon Knight (he's proven that in Moon)


Liam Neeson as Doctor Strange. He's a great actor, his voice is just right for Strange and he can pull off the gotee


Finally Tricia Helfer as Black Cat. She's good at play seductive characters and that's Black Cat all over.


Again this rpobably wont happen but it is cool to think about. Thank you for reading the article, I hope you found it interesting.

MARVEL KNIGHTS would be a sweet movie!!! Nice article Superman4!

Though i got a problem with TOM JANE playing IRON FIST lol!

Yeah Tom Jane was the shit as the Punisher. Ray Park should be Iron Fist.

Too bad Ray Park can't talk. Well, Ive heard him speak and yeah, he shouldn't. Just sit there and make fight scenes look pretty.

Superman4 - 6/8/2009, 5:15 PM
Jane isn't the Punisher any more. I respect your guys opinion but Thamas Jane as Iron Fist is what I would like to see. That's just me though.

tom jane is to old for iron fist.
if you are in the iron man continuity(black widow)sam rockwell can NOT be moon knight,because he is justin hammer.
Superman4
Superman4 - 6/8/2009, 5:18 PM
Ray Park would be ok but I like Jane better.

But the question is would Sam Rockwell make a good Moon Knight?
AshleyWilliams
AshleyWilliams - 6/8/2009, 5:24 PM
maybe.........?
maybe not big enough
the rest besides iron fist and moon knight are awesome!
tricia helfer for emma frost!
josh dumahel(whatever)for iron fist!

Some nice picks. But Statham would be a terrible daredevil. Imo hes a pretty bad actor, but even foregoing that difference of opinion, hes bald, and cant do an American accent for shit. Jane is interesting as Iron Fist..he could be a bit big though, isnt Iron Fist sposed to be quite a slight chap? Aside from Rockwell also being Hammer i think he could be a great Moon Knight and Hefler as Black Cat..yes please!

Is he playing the old man Justin Hammer or is he a younger version?
Ironfist is in pretty good shape. Not like Luke Cage but more like Moon Knight or Daredevil.

I was trying to picture Statham's voice in a Daredevil movie and it just seemed to work for me.

i really like this idea-except statham as daredevil! couldnt stand that to be honest-he would make a good bullseye though.

I honestly don't think Stratham has the emotional depth for Daredevil. Me I actually liked the Afleck movie, I know a lot of others didn't.

Anyone but Scarlet for Widow, I have a feeling she will be the weak link in Ironman 2

Ali Larter for Black Cat.
Superman4
Superman4 - 6/8/2009, 5:37 PM
Jeffery Donovan as Daredevil maybe?
Superman4
Superman4 - 6/8/2009, 6:05 PM
I also liked the Daredevil movie (especially the directors cut) so you not alone Hawk.
THEHAWK
THEHAWK - 6/8/2009, 6:18 PM
Directors Cut was awesome, I loved that subplot with the murder case they cut out, it addded depth to the characters. I like the DC about as much as I did The Dark Knight. We need a Daredevil sequel not reboot.

Donovan would have been good a few years back, but he is 41 now, so he is a little old if they do a origin movie.

Oh! I just realised Ghost Rider and Spiderman were both under Columbia, so we could actually see GR in a Spidey film.

yeah the directors cut to daredevil was a hell of a lot better than the theatrical version. whoever decided to cut it down shoulda been fired. just like whoever cast affleck, he was the weak link in that movie.

good picks though superman4, the only thing I got against statham for DD is I dont think he can do good american accent, he does have a good tone. and could def pull off the action.

and I'd switch your picks for the black widow and black cat. just my opinion tho.

jane and rockwell are both very interesting choices.

But I will always back up Affleck in DD till the day I die! I honestly don't know why everyone turned on him. The movie kickd ass when it came out but then after gigli came out everyone started bashing everything Affleck. So congrats nerds for jumping on the bandwagon (sans hawk and spiderman4)

hmmm...i aint gonna say nothing. since its your cast, which makes it, what you like. But, heres what I like.
Gyllenhaal for Spider-man.
Simon Baker for Moon Knight.
Mila Jovavich as Black Widow.
Ali Larter as Black Cat.
I don't like Statham, but I honestly don't have another preference. I did think Affleck did...acceptable.

Phinehas - 6/8/2009, 7:48 PM
Yes! Donovan for Daredevil! Good thinkin, ol' chap!

(Do you like my campy Adam West affirmation?)
Phinehas
Phinehas - 6/8/2009, 7:53 PM
Just because the Director's Cut of DD was better doesn't make Affleck the better choice to play the actor. And Colin Farrel butchered Bullseye! The scar on his forehead was ridiculous. I would have had him just had a bullseye on a beanie and be done with it.

And why couldn't Donovan play a DD that is already well into his career? He also could pretend to be younger, they are actors after all. They've done it before. Besides, Afflek is almost 38, only two measly years younger than Donovan.

Superman4

If you watch the show Burn Notice (also staring Bruce Campbell) you would know he's in good shape for his age. He's a dam good actor to. (exuse the language)
