A lotta these ideas are way past their sell-by dates - Johnny used to play cast the watchmen in the 80's too, and these are the same people, too old, too late. Dintcha always dream of making it for 1999? When the doomsday clock still had some bite as an image.
So of course Redford/Ozzy, once upon a time. Always had DeNiro for Blake - you know the old bastard'd put on 80lbs of muscle for the part & then have plastic surgery & play the young Comedian at the end of the shoot. And once, James Woods could've been Kovacs. But not any more. Not after the Vampires.. oh well, maybe..
And you used to figure, Dan Ackroyd is Dan Dreiberg - the whole syndrome of the 'talented', athletically built youth who's a paunchy lost-it, but you can still see that same guy looking out..
The doc has to be CGI, but then Osterman has to be really flash cgi too.
Laurie is the tough one - always was. Any Friends girl indeed.
John Hurt can be in the movie any age as Moloch.
But what about a real new cast?
Dreiberg - The Rock
Rohrshach - Mankind
Blake - Jesse 'The Governor' Ventura
Doctor Manhattan - Stone Cold Steve Austin
Veidt - Vince McMahon
Laurie - Lita
Hooded Justice - Kane
Big Figure - Taka Michinoku
Moloch - HHH
Now, y'see, that's how you cast a movie. |
