The Astonishing X-Men





In this cast i will start off with minor characters and build up to the Dark Knight himself!

Mark Pellegrino as Officer Merkel


Merkel is just a recurring cop who is at Yindel's side always. I chose Pellegrino because i think he plays very likeable characters

David Thewlis as Dr. Bartholomew Wolper


Just look at the picture ha ha

Jason Alexander as Fat Man/Bombmaker


Alexander could make the joker's chubby henchman super creepy

The Mutant Leader should be CGI and voiced by Jackie Earle Haley


Awesome, creepy voicework!

Cate Blanchett as Commissioner Ellen Yindel


Looks the part and she is a great actress

Michael Caine as Alfred


I could not find any other actor that was around the age Alfred is supposed to be that i liked other than Caine. he was my favorite Alfred anyways!

George Clooney as Oliver Queen/Green Arrow


Clooney would make this angry, brooding Arrow aces on screen! plus it would pay homage to the crappiest Batman film ever made ha ha just kidding. but seriously that movie sucked.

Kurt Russell as Harvey Dent/Two Face


For this role, i think you need a handsome older man. Russell was the cats pajamas back in the day. just shave his head and he'd rule as Dent

Bruce Greenwood as James Gordon


Greenwood was awesome and commanding in Star Trek. Slap a moustache on his face and he looks the part!

Adrien Brody as The Joker


Now i know this casting may cause some controversy but i for one am a huge fan of Brody's work. he is an incredibly talented and underrated actor. i would love to see him bring his own portrayal of The Joker to life. Also, i know he is not old but it doesn't matter, that's what make-up is for ha ha

Jason Behr as Clark Kent/Superman


This was the hardest part to cast. I hate all the choices flying around lately, Henry Cavill and all that. so i chose someone that is a lot less known. all in all, i think he could pull it off really well

Chloe Moretz as Carrie Kelly/Robin


She is the perfect cast for this part. She's the exact same age as the character and she's a cute little girl




and now for The Dark Knight himself...












for it, i chose...













Bruce Willis as Bruce Wayne/Batman


I personally believe that Willis would play the perfect middle aged Batman. He's very well-built and athletic for his age and he plays great tormented characters such as his role in Unbreakable, and tough brawlers such as his roles in the Die Hard films. He was the only choice in my mind!

Well there you have it! let me know what you think! :D

Good bit of casting there, LIMBO! I agree with deadpool72. Get Zack Snyder directing a DKR movie with this cast and it has epic win written all over it!

@ Anil Rickly
Cain was a terrible Superman. Why would you want him back?
@ LIMBO
Matthew Fox for Superman and Michael Keaton for Batman. Behr is way too young.

thanks guys! i also think that Snyder would make this film great, however i think he would just make it like 300 and Watchmen where it's overly violent and he tosses a random sex scene in ha ha my personal choice for director would have to be J. J. Abrams, i mean he took a classic television series and rebooted it to make it even BETTER, he would do a fantastic job.

@ SuperManFan01 believe it or not i was actually tempted to put Fox as Supes ha ha

DAMM, This is an excellent casting
Limbo@!

Willis as Batman is inspired, I'd
also love to see Michael keaton as
the older bitter Bats!

I would use Dean Cain as the older
Supes. His acting has improved
immensely, like Anil@ said! But yeah,
that is a very difficult casting!

But all-in-all this is a brilliant
cast!

Every casting is great here, except (as many have said) Superman needs to be played by someone older.
Bruce Willis as Bruce = excellent. Made me think of his narration in Sin City straight away.
