Producer
Joss Whedon
Known For - The Avengers, Angel, Firefly, The Office
Director
Marc Forster
Known For - World War Z , Machine Gun Preacher , Monsters Ball , Qauntum of Solace
Reason - Marc Forster, an excellent visual director, just getting into the spotlight, with recent work on World war Z, and Machine Gun Preacher. arc's films thus far, show an aptitude for storytelling, while maintaining A solid grip on intense action sequences. Though most people dd not enjoy WWZ, I personally did, and like many others out there, I do consider yself, an "Amatuer Expert" on Zombies :)... However, Paying attention to story telling alone, Forster succesfully draws the most important aspects of the story on screen. Yes he was just directing A movie modelled after A book, but this still requires A visionary to do so, and do so correctly. Example, Stanley Kubrick succesfully adapted The Shining onto film, because he is A capanle visionary rector, while, the 1997 adaptation by Mick Garris, was seen as A failure, because Garis is not capable of visualizing the film, and adapting appropiately. Forster, is also known for his acton sequences, such as in Qauntum of Solace,which is heavily action oriented, and quite well.

Logan Howlett / Weapon X - Tom Hardy
Known For - The Dark Knight Rises, The Warrior, Bronson, Star Trek : Nemesis
Reasons - Tom Hardy, who I portray as one of the hardest working men in hollywood right now, Is an adept action star, who served the role of Bane in T.D.K.R, and might I add, quite well. Portrayed Charles Bronson/Michael Peterson in the film Bronson, Younger brother and war hero Tommy Conlon in the warrior ( He ripped the door off a tank! )and even played Shinzon in Star Trek : Nemesis. Hardy is a phenomonal action star already, and to test his "chops" I give you several testaments to his ability to hold the screen. 1. Bane takes the cake ; Is there ever A moment when your not glued to the screen watching to see banes next move, is there ever a moment, where his cliche' lines don't just strike you as.. awesome! 2. Tommy conlons a softy! You remember the scene in the casino, tommy and pops are arguing,pops gets all depressed, I couldn't take my eyes off of the scene, it really reminded me of how me and my pops would argue, and then the next morning! No lines, just his performance, he made me feel like he actually felt like he had wronged his father, who only wanted to help, who only wanted one last chance. Now, for big bro, okay they kicked each others asses and got it over with, but.. I have a little brother.. we've had some serious bouts.. and that's usually how they end, very redeeming, and convincing. 3. Lawless.... He's the quiet type ma'am.. but he'll beat a motha [frick]er with anotha motha [frick]a! but he's still wise.. 4... He's Tom [frick]in Hardy.. To play Wolverine you need a few specific
qaulities.
1. Short Stature
2. Bad Attitude
3. Steroids
4. SHORT STATURE!
5. cigar
6. mutton chops!
and
7. more attitude!
Hardy exhumes all the requirements and then some! Yes he would be slightly expensive, now tha he is getting big!But [frick] it! This is A Weapon X movie, he's the leading character! He deserves A payday!
Victor Creed / Sabretooth - Joe Mangienello
Known For - One Tree Hill, Magic Mike, True Blood
Reasons - Okay, so this guy almost made it as our new superman! Which means that WB and Legendary obviously saw he had enough talent to make it far enough into the auditions that it became a race between a handful of guys. Now, he doesn't the screen presence of Hardy, because he doesn't grab your attention as much, but he comes close enough to share the screen with hardy at the very least. Joe stands at roughly 6'4, and packs a walloping size difference between he and hardy that fits perfectly for the role of creed. Now, even with all those muscles, like I said, someone saw something in him
to give him a chance to run for superman, so I'm going out on a limb here, from what I have seen of him, He can play menacing, and intelligent. One tree hill offers him up as ( from what i remember ) A wise bartender, offering advice to all the pretty girls, and true blood makes him out to be the savage beast reminiscent of sabretooth. Combine tyler manes
performance as a savage monster, al brute strength, and combine it with the cunning and intellectual of Schreibers, have mangienello study the script, wear a costume that screams wild animal and have him SPEAK LIKE [frick]IN HANNIBAL LECTRE!
lol.. too much? well anyways, you get what im saying, Joe makes for the best choice for Sabretooth!
Christoph Nord / Maverick / Agent Zero - Vincent Regan
Known For - 300, Snow White and the Huntsman, Unleashed
Reasons - Okay, So the only movies I have ever seen with him, are Unleashed, and 300, 300 he is this aged perfect warrior, and in unleashed, this charismatic savvy but conniving businessman ( who jet li beats the shizzzzznit out of! ) but as the character Maverick aka Zero... those are the precise two traits I want to see. I didn't like the Zero from Origins,
and I am pretty sure no one did... He seemed like A whiny little girl who was mad at daddy because he always got stuck doing the dishes instead of being allowed to go outside and play. Anyways, again, Only two movies I have seen, only two movies I need to see, because he has both of them down perfectly!
Professor Thorton - Christopher Lee
Known For - Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Dracula, Burke & Hare
Reasons - He's cunning, intelligent, slimy, and charismatic!.. what else do you need!.. Make Thorton the main protagonist
and have wolverine "Cut off his head!!!" haha... star wars :D
Arkady Rossovich / Omega Red - Ian Whyte
Known For - Prometheus, Solomon Kane, Clash of the Titans
Reasons - He stands at 7'1... He has played some seriously badass creatures and villains ( Omega Red.. bad ass..6'11)Hell, he even played the giant lady teacher from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Oozaru in Dragonball Evolution.The dude is a certified kick ass monster! Did I mention he plays the Djinn from Clash of the Titans, the devils reaper
in solomon kane, the last engineer in prometheus, Predator, in AVP, and is in the upcoming Hercules and Scorpion King!
Well Guys, this is My Weapon X Part 1 Fancast
It's been a long time since I have read through this specific series, so I chose not to write up some epic idea for the movie, because I would want to make sure things were done right. I just know, these are the main characters I would want to see in it, along with the rest of Team X, like Silver Fox, Mastodon, John Wraith, etc. However, I owuld probably leave the remaining mutants to Unknowns! Or.. barely knowns!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this cast!
