5:07 sorry I'm commenting so much but with Jason's hair I feel they should put a white streak in it like they do in some continuities we're a small patch of his hair gets essentially bleached in the Lazarus pit so it's whitish gray but only a small little portion
10:29 Cass’ age range should actually be between Tim and Jason, not Tim and Damian. She was 17 in her debut appearance, turned 18 during her Batgirl run, and she’s consistently in the same age range as Tim and Steph, if not a bit older. At one point, Bruce even said she was the same age that Jason would be if he hadn’t been killed.
Making Cass younger than Tim is N'ew 52 reboot nonsense, and it's frustratingly unclear whether the current editors even realize, let alone care, that with the reintroduction of her original origin this makes little to no sense. Clearly, they let the team on the recent Batgirls series do whatever. But the team on Cass's upcoming Batgirl series seems to actually be fans of her classic runs, so fingers crossed. Anyway, Cass was officially slightly older than Jason. I wish I could remember the story that was established. Maybe Batman Inc. Vol. 1? That said, while I'd prefer them to keep the exact age order of Cass - Jay - Steph - Tim, what really matters to me is that these four are treated as the same generation, with none of them getting handed over to Damian's or Dick's.
To be fair people are focusing on characters who got the shaft for a far longer stretch of time than Duke I hope we see him But as long as Cass Steph Tim And Jason are there and have an interesting dynamic with Bruce Nightwing and Damian I’ll be happy
@@Clankem Only with Affleck. And that was barely explored. Pattinson is already playing young Batman in his 30s, with a young group of villians. DCU needs to go different.
Keep up the great work. Every one of these fan casts is fantastic. I really want this movie to be amazing! It’s so cool to see a lot of people behind the Brave and the Bold film. I also admire the push to make Robin, Red Robin, Red Hood and Nightwing all important characters. They have been done so dirty in past live action projects. I really hope this comes together well. Thank you for sharing this with us!
From 1983 until 1986, Jason was a natural (light) redhead who came up with dyeing his hair black. (IRL to appease the marketing department wanting to keep the classic Robin look.) From 1986 until 2009, he had natural black hair. He was dead from 1988 until 2005 (after they had first chickened out at the last minute in a prior story that ran from 2003 to 2004). From 2009 until 2011, Jason was a natural (dark) redhead who had been forced by Bruce to dye his hair as Robin. Since 2011, he has been back to natural black hair with no mention of any red hair in main continuity.
Really like some of these picks, and I appreciate the level of understanding of the requirements to play these characters This would be my personal fan casting for some of the members of the DCU *BatFamily* : Batman/Bruce Wayne - Brandon Sklenar Alfred Pennyworth - Hugh Laurie Nightwing/Dick Grayson - Drake Roger or Leo Howard Red Hood/Jason Todd - Tanner Buchanan Red Robin/Tim Drake - Charlie Bushnell Robin/Damian Wayne - Unknown actor? Talia Al Ghul - Claudia Doumit Oracle/Barbara Gordon - Sadie Sink or Kiera Allen (a real-life paraplegic actress who is currently 26 years old) Batgirl/Ophan/Cassandra Cain - Riley Lai Nelet Batwoman/Kate Kane - Evan Rachel Woods Catwoman/Selina Kyle - Ana De Armas Commissioner James Gordon - Ethan Hawke Etc...
I bet you're gonna do a Batman villains fancast. And may I suggest David Howard Thornton for the Joker? He's the actor who plays Art The Clown, but he has an extensive history appearing as the Joker in various things. He plays a more traditional comic book Joker. Very campy but as evidenced by the Terrifier films, he can also play comedic psychopathy. Also Gunn's Troma history tells me he's probably watching these Terrifier films and he's on his radar.
Actually, someone I think did phenomenal as Joker in a voice role and might be cool to see do live-action is Troy Baker. I mean, like, name a male video game character and probably he or Nolan North voiced them in something… but I don’t think either has done much live-action? But with the performance capture of TLOU, and the behind-the-scenes stuff you can find on YT… there’s NO WAY he CAN’T do live-action acting. Also, Nolan North should’ve been Nathan Drake in the Uncharted film. Him or Nathan Fillion. Fillion actually starred in a little fan film and was perfect. You can watch that here on YT, as well.
i feel like nicholas alexander the guy who plays lyles in the new Menendez brother's show is gonna be a big fan cast soon for Night Wing, 25 years old , 6 foot, with a model jawline, and a slender built sounds like the right recipe
Completely agree He is perfectly in line with the requirements for the role, he has connections/resemblance with the original comic book for Bruce Wayne being the grandson of Gregory Peck (plus James Gunn is a great fan of DC Kingdom Come), he would be in line with the type of actors Gunn looks for in the roles, has shown great abilities and performances as Spock in Star Trek (that deep voice is incredible) and would be realistic as someone being bit older than Superman (7 years of gap is fine in my opinion) and he clearly said he will be interested to play the character I would always root/sustain him for Bruce Wayne-Batman
I'd actually prefer a blonde actor for Jason Todd, since he was blonde Pre-Crisis when he was just a Dick Grayson clone, and I'd love for a reference to that, especially since it would help the Robins not all look the same
@@painvillegaming4119 DC has gone back and forth on whether he's naturally has black hair or if it's dye. also the red hair pre-crisis could just as easily have been blonde

Holy shit I didn't I never thought about it before but the guy who plays five on the umbrella academy actually would be a great choice for either a young Jason Todd before he becomes Red Hood when he's Robin cuz he's shown on the umbrella academy he can be a violent little fucker and that's Jason to a t and if they wanted to use him as adult Jason after his Red Hood transformation they just have to bulk him up a little so we wouldn't be so twiggy but I could definitely be down for that casting I could even see him as a young Dick Grayson couple years into being Robin he's got the physique for it He's small not height wise but he's very lanky which could work for Dick's acrobatics
About your thoughts regarding Jason- what about having him be a redhead? For one thing, it help him look a little different from Dick (like you're wanting), but also, if I recall correctly (I could be wrong, though), he originally was one. Just a thought!
For the most part, I agree, but your character ages for some of the core Batfam make me want to scream, particularly making Jason only two years younger than Dick and making Cass younger than Tim. The current comics are an opaque mess outside Damian by now being explicitly 14, due to the N'ew 52 having squished together everyone and most of the current crop of editors and writers not being familiar enough with the previous continuity despite the return of 99% of it several years ago at this point, but for the record of how things used to be when they made sense: Batman's debut: Bruce 26. (He's 25 at the beginning of Batman: Year One, but by the time he dons the costume, he's likely 26, and either way that's the number that was commonly stated later.) Robin's debut: Bruce 28, Dick 12. Batgirl's debut: Dick 15, Babs 18. (Used to be Dick 16, Babs 23 from pre-CoIE until Zero Hour (1994) at the earliest, Batgirl: Year One (2003) at the latest; I keep meaning to check exactly when.) Nightwing's and Robin II's debuts: Dick 19, Jason 12. (Dick's age during this has fluctuated between 18 and 20, but 19 was the original (pre-CoIE) and the final (pre-N52).) Robin II's demise: Jason 15, Tim 13. (In the original comics, Jason was clearly 13, maybe early 14. In the Zero Hour timeline, he was at most 13, maybe merely 12. For Batman: Hush, he was established as explicitly 15 at the time.) Robin III's and Spoiler's (public) debuts: Tim 14, Steph 15. Batgirl II's debut: Tim 15, Cass 17. (Like the comics at the time, I ain't counting Bette and Helena. And Cass was later stated to be older than Jason by a few weeks, maybe a couple of months.) Spoiler's demise and Red Hood II's debut: Jason 18, Tim 16, Steph 17. Robin V's, Red Robin III's, and Batgirl III's debuts: Tim 17, Steph 18, Damian 10. So, if the film were fully accurate to the relevant period source material: Damian 10, Tim 17, Steph 18, Jason 19, Cass 19, Dick 26, Babs 29, Bruce 42. Squeezing these together to the very limit of what I'm comfortable with: Damian 12, Tim 17, Steph 18, Jason 18, Cass 18, Dick 23, Babs 25, Bruce 37.
@@gagefranke6290 yeah but it would look weird and unnatural. However I could see Glenn Powell as Eddie Brock if the MCU ever gets Eddie Brock and venom.
I don't get the Tanner Buchannan fancast, I just don't think he's a good actor. He's fine on Cobra Kai but only because that whole show has a shlocky charm to it.
I think it’s curious that you casted Jamie as Richard when his most famous role was Neteyam in atwow, the oldest brother who self sacrifices in the end XD so at least we know he’s got the experience in that field.
While I still want Alan Ritchson as Batman, Tom Bateman is my second choice. From what you've said, he fits the description of what James' going for, aside from his last name, hehehe. Also, Shaggy as Commissioner Gordon. I want it! LET'S GO! The rest are really great castings. Nice job.
I don’t know if you’ve done this or anything like it but what if you took the original 2000 Marvel Films from Fox and Sony (OG X-Men, OG Fantastic Four, Blade, Nick Cage Ghost Rider, Daredevil, Elektra, Tobey Spider-Man) and created a cinematic universe or a culmination film of all those properties?
Abigail Cowen is perfect for Barbara Gordon. I would go with Sadie Sink if she were taller, but I just find it hard accepting a Batgirl who's barely five feet tall.
He’s good for Tim not Jason, Jason is built like a linebacker described in the comics with muscle. That kid doesn’t have an ounce of muscle, he’s just lean.
bro has a younger brother who looks just like him, Daelo Walton, I assume that since their father is a boxer, they all know some sort of fighting skill
anyone can get ripped bruh. if that's your criteria for casting you need to reevaluate. look for a good ACTOR, not an actor who just LOOKS like the character now.
Here's my fancast for the bat-family- Brandon Sklenar as Batman Wolfgang Novagratz as Nightwing Ian Mckellen as Alfred Bryan Cranston as Jim Gordan Louis Partridge as Tim Drake Ruby Rose to play Catwoman Mason Thames as Damien Wayne Harry Collet as Jason Todd Millie Bobby Brown as Batgirl
Matthew Lillard as James Gordon…. Hell yeah. He’s my pick for an older Ted Kord, but James Gordon? That would be great too. Especially if they do a Gotham PD show (they should… True Detective in DC would go so hard)
IMO, Oliver Jackson-Cohen or Brandon Sklenar as Batman Drake Rodger as Nightwing sure he’s a bit older but it can work Nicholas Chavez as red hood Keep Carter as Damian And whoever you want for Tim drake
The fact that Tanner Buchanan is CURRENTLY playing a 17 year old on cobra Kai and doesn’t look out of place, makes it feasible. I’m not saying he HAS to be Jason, but there’s no reason he can’t be.
Fan Cast Blackest Night next. Ooh ooh ooh and the different lanterns of the different corps you can do it as a multi part video. Anyway I also want you to fan cast the titans if you haven’t already, personally I think Starfire should be played by a latina because for the most part in the comics she has very Latin features
Would love to see your casting of the rogues gallery. I’d love to see Karen Gillan as poison ivy and David tennant as the riddler. Hope we can keep Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and get a new joker. Maybe cast Troy baker or Alan tudyk since they both have the voice down.
My fan casting for the batfamily would be: 1) Colin Firth as Alfred Pennyworth 2) Brian Cranston as Jim Gordon 3) Keith David as Luscious fox 4) Drake Rodger as Dick Grayson aka Nightwing 5)Dacre Montgomery as Jason Todd aka Red hood 6)Harry Colette as Tim Drake aka Red Robin 7) Abigail Cullen as Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl 8) Laura Candor as Cassandra Cain aka orphan 9) Gordon Comber as Damien Wayne aka robin 10) Gemma Chung as Talia Al ghoul 11) Jaime Lee Curtis as Dr Lesley thompkins 12) Winston Dukes as Luke fox aka Batwing 13) Jensen Ackles as Bruce Wayne aka The batman 14) Anna De Armes as Selena Kyle aka Catwoman
while she may have aged out, I think actress Peyton list would be my steph brown/spoiler. She's got fighting experience from cora kai, her first leading role was a streaming show called school spirits that has her as a high schooler and was pretty passing as a teenager so they can make her feel younger.
My Favorite DC is Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ BATMAN Batmobile Music By Danny Elfman Theme Song BATMAN and BATMAN Returns Michael Keaton is BATMAN will be Number 1
Okay, hear me out... BRAD PITT as Commissioner Gordon. I'm not even joking. The man is a great actor, and he can definitely play a seasoned cop who's trying to do good. It would basically be him playing Morgan Freeman's character in Se7en.
1. Jamie Dornan or Brandon Skenar as Batman, he thinks he can pull off the dark side of Batman 2. Joel Oulette or Archie Renaux as Nightwing if you watch Avatar the last airbender, he can be this leadership role to the bat family 3. Nicholas Alexander Chavez as Red Hood I am so obsessed with him that I need help, but he can bring complexity 4. Leslie Grace as Batgirl, no word 5. Jack Champion, as Red Robin or Robin, just has all that 6. Unknown actors as Damian Wayne 7. Bruce Greenwood as Jim Gordon just come on watch Fall of the House of Usher 8. Mark Rylance as Alfred he just perfect for Alfred 9. Courtney B Vance as Lucius Fox 10. Sofia Boutella as Catwoman The Batman Villains
I think Jason should be presumed dead during Brave and the Bold, with him being a semi-villain in the sequel which would be a live action adaptation of under the red hood. Other than that tho I think the lineup is perfect
Bruce and Dick are normally 12-15 years apart I think anything lower than 12 is weird. Yes they have a father son type of relationship but their relationship is also more brotherly than Bruce and the rest of the robins as he didn’t really need to teach Dick much from a moral standpoint as much as he did someone like Jason. Dick is also the only who can call Bruce on his bullshit and Bruce would give him the leave resistance with doing because he knows him better than the others. Their relationship is the most unique.
@@williamdaviddiazcuchimaque7511yeah I thought he’d be a good Batman but compared to Henry Cavill he’s absolutely massive. And Henry Cavill is probably bigger than the new Superman, David Corenswet, so I think he’d be better as wildcat or captain atom
13:01 the fact James Gunn confirmed to a fan on twitter that he's looking to see which character Matthew can play in the DCU is too perfect
I can see him playing the Joker, judging by his role from Scream and 5 nights at Freddy's.
@@JasonPeterTodd06 Having William Afton Be The Joker Would Be Really Cool

15:53 I don’t think we need another Jon Stewart / Aaron Pierre situation on our hands, so no.
I honestly don't think hair colour matters all that much because wigs and hair dye exist. An exception being Barbara.
Why is Barbara an exception?
Barbara can wear a lace wig
Great casting choices. I hope Gunn keeps on his excellent casting streak!
Hopefully we get the cast for the movie soon or even the actor for Batman
I don't get the Tanner Buchannan fancast, I just don't think he's a good actor. He's fine on Cobra Kai but only because that whole show has a shlocky charm to it.
Can you make one of these fancast videos for the possible x men reboot?
Brandon Sklenar as Batman!
Plz Do Fancasting The DCU Villains Or Legion Of Doom
next is fan casting the villains of the DCU/every rogue gallery
I think it’s curious that you casted Jamie as Richard when his most famous role was Neteyam in atwow, the oldest brother who self sacrifices in the end XD so at least we know he’s got the experience in that field.
For Kate Kane I suggest Mackenzie Davis, Katy O'Brien, Kristen Stewart, Wallis Day or Sasha Calle.
Batman - jensen ackels
Jim gordon - JK simmons
Redhood - pandaredd
While I still want Alan Ritchson as Batman, Tom Bateman is my second choice. From what you've said, he fits the description of what James' going for, aside from his last name, hehehe.
Also, Shaggy as Commissioner Gordon. I want it! LET'S GO!
The rest are really great castings. Nice job.
I don’t know if you’ve done this or anything like it but what if you took the original 2000 Marvel Films from Fox and Sony (OG X-Men, OG Fantastic Four, Blade, Nick Cage Ghost Rider, Daredevil, Elektra, Tobey Spider-Man) and created a cinematic universe or a culmination film of all those properties?
I'm going to like the video specifically because your fan casting for Batman is the same as mine. Tom Bateman.
0:19 they all are gonna be played by queen elizabith and prince Andrew , just saved you 17 minutes
How come you skipped Azrael?
Abigail Cowen is perfect for Barbara Gordon. I would go with Sadie Sink if she were taller, but I just find it hard accepting a Batgirl who's barely five feet tall.
You not mentioning Javon Walton for Tim or Jason was wild, kid is ripped
He’s good for Tim not Jason, Jason is built like a linebacker described in the comics with muscle. That kid doesn’t have an ounce of muscle, he’s just lean.
bro has a younger brother who looks just like him, Daelo Walton, I assume that since their father is a boxer, they all know some sort of fighting skill
anyone can get ripped bruh. if that's your criteria for casting you need to reevaluate. look for a good ACTOR, not an actor who just LOOKS like the character now.
Javon has a bad boy vibe that fits perfectly with Jason or Damian
Here's my fancast for the bat-family-
Brandon Sklenar as Batman
Wolfgang Novagratz as Nightwing
Ian Mckellen as Alfred
Bryan Cranston as Jim Gordan
Louis Partridge as Tim Drake
Ruby Rose to play Catwoman
Mason Thames as Damien Wayne
Harry Collet as Jason Todd
Millie Bobby Brown as Batgirl
Matthew Lillard as James Gordon…. Hell yeah.
He’s my pick for an older Ted Kord, but James Gordon? That would be great too. Especially if they do a Gotham PD show (they should… True Detective in DC would go so hard)
Do bat family whole cast
I really like the fan cast of Brandon Sklenar for Batman
IMO,
Oliver Jackson-Cohen or Brandon Sklenar as Batman
Drake Rodger as Nightwing sure he’s a bit older but it can work
Nicholas Chavez as red hood
Keep Carter as Damian
And whoever you want for Tim drake
8:32 daelo Walton would be good, younger brother of Javon Walton in Euphoria, all the Walton siblings are into martial arts I believe
The fact that Tanner Buchanan is CURRENTLY playing a 17 year old on cobra Kai and doesn’t look out of place, makes it feasible. I’m not saying he HAS to be Jason, but there’s no reason he can’t be.
My dream is to play Tim Drake, I'm from Brazil and I train Karate
13:00 HE ALWAYS COME BACK !!!
Fan Cast Blackest Night next. Ooh ooh ooh and the different lanterns of the different corps you can do it as a multi part video. Anyway I also want you to fan cast the titans if you haven’t already, personally I think Starfire should be played by a latina because for the most part in the comics she has very Latin features
Brian cranston is perfect for jim gordon.He voice fire in batman year one movie
Pedro Pascal, The Rock, Jenna Ortega, Giancarlo Esposito should play everyone in Gunn's DCU 😂😂😂😂😂
Hope all these casting choices get picked, this would be as exciting as the superman cast is
My choice for the new Batman is still the guy who has it all to play Batman on screen: Mr. Armie Hammer!
Would love to see your casting of the rogues gallery. I’d love to see Karen Gillan as poison ivy and David tennant as the riddler. Hope we can keep Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn and get a new joker. Maybe cast Troy baker or Alan tudyk since they both have the voice down.
This video just reminded me that Keith David was alive. Idk why I thought he was died
Loved Aiden as Tim always wanted him to Play tim after seeing his number 5
My fan casting for the batfamily would be:
1) Colin Firth as Alfred Pennyworth
2) Brian Cranston as Jim Gordon
3) Keith David as Luscious fox
4) Drake Rodger as Dick Grayson aka Nightwing
5)Dacre Montgomery as Jason Todd aka Red hood
6)Harry Colette as Tim Drake aka Red Robin
7) Abigail Cullen as Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl
8) Laura Candor as Cassandra Cain aka orphan
9) Gordon Comber as Damien Wayne aka robin
10) Gemma Chung as Talia Al ghoul
11) Jaime Lee Curtis as Dr Lesley thompkins
12) Winston Dukes as Luke fox aka Batwing
13) Jensen Ackles as Bruce Wayne aka The batman
14) Anna De Armes as Selena Kyle aka Catwoman
while she may have aged out, I think actress Peyton list would be my steph brown/spoiler. She's got fighting experience from cora kai, her first leading role was a streaming show called school spirits that has her as a high schooler and was pretty passing as a teenager so they can make her feel younger.
Timothy Jackson Drake 😁
My Favorite DC is Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ BATMAN
Batmobile Music By Danny Elfman Theme Song BATMAN and BATMAN Returns
Michael Keaton is BATMAN will be Number 1
Okay, hear me out... BRAD PITT as Commissioner Gordon.
I'm not even joking. The man is a great actor, and he can definitely play a seasoned cop who's trying to do good. It would basically be him playing Morgan Freeman's character in Se7en.
Although Damian is of mixed heritage, let's not forget he's the striking image of his father with a slightly tanner complexion.
Dick Grayson/Tanner Buchan
Barbra Gordon/Kieran Shipka
Jason Todd/Zachary Arthur
Tim Drake/Elias Harger
Damian Wyane/a unknown actor
1. Jamie Dornan or Brandon Skenar as Batman, he thinks he can pull off the dark side of Batman
2. Joel Oulette or Archie Renaux as Nightwing if you watch Avatar the last airbender, he can be this leadership role to the bat family
3. Nicholas Alexander Chavez as Red Hood I am so obsessed with him that I need help, but he can bring complexity
4. Leslie Grace as Batgirl, no word
5. Jack Champion, as Red Robin or Robin, just has all that
6. Unknown actors as Damian Wayne
7. Bruce Greenwood as Jim Gordon just come on watch Fall of the House of Usher
8. Mark Rylance as Alfred he just perfect for Alfred
9. Courtney B Vance as Lucius Fox
10. Sofia Boutella as Catwoman
The Batman Villains
Awesome damian wayne is going to be so much better in a live action film
Please do a iron man version of this for ur James Gunn mcu
for babra gordon/bat girl could she not be mixed race or lightskin? seeing as she as portrayed as that in most media now
I actually really really like Mathew Lierd as Commission Gordon. That’s my favourite fan cast here
Yasss for Hugh Laurie as Alfred..he's perfect
Can you make fan casting of DC and Marvel superhero villains?
12:13 Ral-f Fey-ennes
No no no
Ray-f Fines
I think Jason should be presumed dead during Brave and the Bold, with him being a semi-villain in the sequel which would be a live action adaptation of under the red hood. Other than that tho I think the lineup is perfect
I think Jason should be played my our boy ThePandaRedd
The man literally admitted he'd be willing to kill people to play him.
Glen Powell as Batman
Drake Rodger as nigthwimg
Tanner bucchanan as red hood
Aidan Gallagher as Tim Drake
Gordom comier as Damian Wayne
you cant seriously be trying to white wash damien wayne with a 5,5 guy whos 21, white washing seriously
@@jakebraz3265 gordom comier just turned 15 years old
@@DanielSalesdeBarros yeah but he's white
Bruce and Dick are normally 12-15 years apart I think anything lower than 12 is weird. Yes they have a father son type of relationship but their relationship is also more brotherly than Bruce and the rest of the robins as he didn’t really need to teach Dick much from a moral standpoint as much as he did someone like Jason. Dick is also the only who can call Bruce on his bullshit and Bruce would give him the leave resistance with doing because he knows him better than the others. Their relationship is the most unique.
Do more of these plz
Jensen ackles will be perfect for batman role
O Alan ritchson
@@williamdaviddiazcuchimaque7511yeah I thought he’d be a good Batman but compared to Henry Cavill he’s absolutely massive. And Henry Cavill is probably bigger than the new Superman, David Corenswet, so I think he’d be better as wildcat or captain atom
He's gonna be 50 by the time brave and the bold comes out let it rest pal 😂😂
They aren't casting Middle Age it isn't 2018 anymore please check the date bro is like 46 now. 💀💀🙏💔
They should cast Ewan Mitchell (Aemond Targaryen) as Red Hood. He'll be great
