With Marvel Comics announcing that "Thor" and "The First Avenger" will be their last movies before they let Disney do all of their up and coming films, DC and Warner Bros. MUST TAKE ACTION! Marvel has done a great job with casting big stars as well as up and comers for their characters. I think some superheroes are so big, that they don't need a big name like Superman. With Batman's success, Bale has the franchise on the right track and Reynolds starring in Green Lantern. With a character like The Flash, DC Comics should know they need something to make this movie pop against the Marvel haymakers about to be thrown at the box office. One actor who wants to be a superhero and is big enough to get the whole worlds attention: Brad Pitt.
Starring as Barry Allen aka The Flash.
Hollywood would go crazy! Taking us on inside looks of the set, and peeks of Brad in the costume. Could you imagine? If done right, shock waves would run through the comic book movie industry. One would wonder: "wouldn't he have been perfect for a couple of our roles?" "And why didn't we make it happen?" Just this thought alone makes you say "would Brad do it? Could Brad do it? And how much would the budget be?"
Sometimes in movie making you don't need a bunch of stars, just the right one. Seeing Brad rip through the streets as DC's red and yellow lighting bolt
would definitely prove that there's more to DC Comics than just Superman and Batman. It would also prove to Hollywood that Brad Pitt should have been a superhero a long time ago.
