Dreamcasting #32 - Daredevil: The Man Without Fear

[TheManWithoutFear]

This is pretty much perfect and I can't see anybody ever complaining about it if they used him.

It's the only thing I'm going to contribute to this. I've always tried to cast these guys in my head but I can't think of many people who would do justice to these characters. Everyone looks to cast Foggy as some sort of dim-witted comedian. That's not Foggy Nelson at all. Look past the bow-tie.

But yeah, everything post X-3 Ben Foster has done has completely blown me away. He's easily one of my top 3 actors now and he plays crazy eerily enough.

Couldn't agree more. Foggy is one of my favorite characters in DD comics... He's so human, and very flawed, but still incredibly likable.

I wouldn't say that Patton Oswalt is dim-witted at all. If anything he plays intelligent characters that just have low self esteem.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

I've never looked at Foggy as the dimwitted sidekick. In fact, he's the one person in my cast that I'm having the most trouble casting.

Mole's choice was a good pick because of the reasoning behind it.

Tom Wilkinson would be a good Kingpin. I was watching Batman Begins last night and I started picturing him without any hair, and he looked just like Wilson Fisk.

 

[Dr.Strangefate]

Only if he played the character exactly like he played Falcone. And that's just cheating.

Wilkinson is pretty good with accents. Falcone sounded kind of like a Boston accent. He could change his accent for the Kingpin.

Woah, dude, I love that cast.

 

[Ice]

Woah, dude, I love that cast.

I second this.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

Foggy Nelson - Sean Astin

Sigh.

After much deliberation, Astin was who I chose for Foggy. I was hoping that it's understated brilliance would go ignored until I casted him and everyone clamored over my choice.

Well DIH. Well played.

 

[Willverine]

Disorder, your choices for the first two roles are incredible. The rest of them could work, but with some explanation I would understand them better. That being said, Michael C. Hall could play just about anything (including Daredevil) because he could act the pants off half of Hollywood, and Sean Astin is a perfect Foggy Nelson.

 

[Planet-man]

It's going to be a very tight competition between Mole's and DITH's casts now. This would be such an awesome show either way.

 

[thee great one]

This is very hard.

I've only casted one.

I love this guy. I wouldn't cast Michael C. Hall but everyone else is pretty impressive.

Same here. I'm kicking around a joke cast because I've only got one serious cast member I'm happy with.

Ben Urich - Enrico Colantoni

I'm almost positive this guy played Urich in the DD movie

I'm off to IMDB anyone need anything?

and i'm wrong, it was Joe Pantoliano, very similar looking guys

All Italians look alike to me.

 

[ourchair]

I've got almost everyone cast. Will post soon.

 

[Dr.Strangefate]

You guys have until midnight to finish up, but if Ourchair hasn't posted, I might wait until he gets his cast up.
