Cast some X-Men

[mr.brighteyes]

I don't like the X-Boards. They are too convoluted and cluttered.

And again I am really bored and think I have found the perfect person to play Bishop.

Wow I didn't realize the picture would be that big.

That is a good choice. The Bishop I remember had longer hair than that, but maybe he's cut it since. Anyway, put an M on his face and maybe do something with the hair and it's just about perfect!

Bishop had a shaved head in District X I think it was called. I don't remember what he looks like in the current Cable series. the actor would need a Goatee though.

lol maybe just a little.

Who is bird man

Well, actually, he's rapper Lil' Wayne's adoptive father. I think he'd be perfect for Bishop visually, but I have no idea if he has the acting chops.

Oh you mean him as bishop Nah I think my choice is better. I thought you were saying Birdman was an X-Man that I had never heard of.

Hee! I was wondering if that was the case! You have to admit, though, he does look the badass, eh?

And the point of the first sentence is ... ? Needless negativity!

And I'd prefer an Indigenous Australian actor, personally. I wish I could think of one, though.

Do we have to have Bishop in an X-Men movie?

Dakota Fanning:

Stepford Cuckoos.

Was reading Madrox when I thought of it. He makes a brief appearance. Wow Dakota is about the right age for the Stepfords but I think that a younger Amanda Seyfried might be better.

Mark Harmon as Cable

The actress who plays Edie from Desperate Housewives should be Emma Frost!

The actress who plays Edie from Desperate Housewives should be Emma Frost!

She'd be too old, since Morrison established Emma as 27, but personally I like that idea. (I remember one of the X-Men 2 writers saying they wanted Sigourney Weaver as Emma for X-Men 3, and I like that too.) To me, Emma always read as older. I think she works better as a cougar.

[mr.brighteyes]

Both Weaver and The Actress who plays Eddi are both too old. The actress who played Shannon in Lost would be about the right age http://images.askmen.com/galleries/celeb-profiles-actress/maggie-grace/pictures/maggie-grace-picture-2.jpg

Katherine Heigl does too

[section 8]

For Emma?
I'd say Either Cameron Diaz (see "A Life Less Ordinary" for her "stuck up rich girl" act)

Or
Heather Locklear

Emma was meant to be making a self-conscious bitchy comment with that 27 thing. Pretty much everything else in every comics shows her to be in her 30s, slightly older than Beast, the oldest of the O 5 so I completely agree with you on the cougar thing. Also, 'Edie' isn't that much older than Famke, who played Jean, is she?

I wouldn't mind Sigourney Weaver, either.

EDIT: Just checked Famke. She's 44. James Marsden, who played Cyclops, is 39. Kelsey, who played Beast, is 54. So Emma's actor would be between 40 and 55. Edie's actor actually seems to be younger than Famke.

[scout1279]

I think the 27 thing has been taken pretty literally by Marvel though. She was so young in those flashbacks in the Uncanny X-Men Annual.

You're right about the ages of the actors in the movies though. Emma would have to be played by someone more in line with their ages, so anyone too yound wouldn't work anyway.

I get the impression that FOX is going with a reboot though (based on the X-Men: First Class title, and the fact that they forced a young Cyclops into Wolverine: Origins, and apparently tried to get a young Strm in there too), so the point is probably moot.
