Top 10 Actors Who Should Play Batman

I've seen all the films, and I think Christian Bale is hot in a so-angry-he-might-burn-down-your-house kind of way. But if I were the female version of Christopher Nolan, I'd cast a new Batman.
Social ON
Social OFF

Ryan Reynolds

This is a purely selfish choice. But I think most women would agree that they'd like to see Ryan Reynolds in a spandex onesie, no? Or, like, maybe a new twist on Batman where he's just shirtless all the time because Alfred keeps "misplacing" the top half of the suit...

Zach Galifianakis

For too long this franchise has been about loss, redemption, and ass kicking.

Isn't it about time that someone took a comic crack at it? Specifically this lovable ball of Greek hairiness?

Natalie Portman

She's already in every other movie. So, why not take this role from other promising actors, too?

Matthew Morrison

He sings on Glee and apparently has a solo album dropping, or something, but if anyone is going to bring a Batman musical to the big screen it's Matthew Morrison.

Think of the song possibilities!!

Robert Pattinson

Have you seen those Twilight movies? This kid can't act for shit. But he's incredibly attractive and seems to have cast some sort of spell over pre-pubescent (or post, in this author's case) girls.

It would bring in a totally new and terrifying audience.

Mike "the Situation" Sorrentino

In the words of 'The Situation' himself: "You can hate on me all you want to, but what can you possibly say to somebody that looks like Rambo, pretty much, with his shirt off."

Amen.

Danny DeVito

Stay with me here: If there was ever a 'Batman' film set in the future, I think he would be the epitome of a fallen superhero.

The movie could be an indie dramedy a la Sideways, where DeVito is a middle-aged, depressed sack who takes a road trip with his pal Robin and meets a woman who makes him rethink EVERYTHING.

Anyone??

Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Christopher Nolan already cast him in The Dark Knight Rises as 'John Blake,' and I know he's thin and kind of hipsterish. But imagine if he put on like 70 pounds of muscle, used a scratchy voice, and carried around a batarang?

Seriously, think about it.

Will Smith

There has never been a black Batman, and he's already remaking another famous film so his baby girl Willow can 'Whip Her Hair' as the first black Annie. It's inevitable, is all I'm saying.

Justin Timberlake

We all want JT to return to where he belongs, and that land is music.

But he has a wacky idea in his head that he can "act" and wants to "try something new." Luckily, I know how to break this: cast him as Batman and have his obviously lacking skills sink the franchise.

If Intervention has taught me anything, it's that all junkies have to hit a bottom before they accept help. Let's give Justin that bottom as Batman.

  • lol
  • Two things: 1) Holy shit it's La Rosa. 2) Hey! Alfonso! Over here! Fuck you, guy!
  • Well *this* is a wonderful find!
  • there's nobody better suited to play batman than the quip-spitting Jeff Goldblum
  • john hamm, i think would be a great idea for batman based of batman 100
  • How about Adam West as Batman? Or, Michael Keaton... How about Bill Clinton as Batman, George W. Bush as Robin, and George Bush Sr. as Alfred?
  • this was such a waste of time.... thanks for the stupid ass list
  • Danny Devito was already in Batman....he's the friggin' penguin.
  • wheres Jeff Bridges? i'di see it as a great sequel to The Big Lebowski
  • aww so cuteeeee i loveeee
  • Alex O'Laughlin would make an awesome Batman. He already rocks the American accent and has the perfect build. And we KNOW he can brood. (Moonlight).
  • Joseph Gordon-Levitt He would be an EPIC batman
  • these actors should play robin
  • Boo
  • Oh hell yeah!
  • I think Andy Six (Andy Biersack) from Black Veil Brides should play Batman. He has always been a HUGE fan of it, and it was his other career choice as a child!
  • wow....did they just pull names out their asses or something? well hell why not jackie chan while your at it? after all batman knows martial arts.....oh even better since you mentioned a comedy aspect mike myers he could play both batman AND the villain...
  • wow.....these actor are nice but there own movie but in batman's casting there should be roll is fit on the old one guy jeff goldblum, so don't bother to change the role on any other actor http://www.essaysale.com
  • Hey.... How about the Dice Man? Coolest Batman eva.... watch the hair......
  • this article needs an enema *blows party popper
  • This is unreal, Funny or Die has gone so far down hill it's insane. They lure you in with the witty Will Ferral and Zach Galifinakis with a few skits, only to show you what's really going on here. Which is the exact work that a pre-schooler could do. I vote DIE.
  • this is the worst list I have ever had the misfortune of reading. Thank god this woman isn't making the choice for the new batman series. Maybe they'll leave it to someone who actually likes Batman
  • This is perhaps the most pointless thing I've read today. Why talk about re-casting a character that's already been passed around more often than a $2 hooker? Even hypothetically this list makes almost no sense. Most of the people in the list are not castable as Batman. The suggestions range from outrageous to just plain bland (wouldn't Michael Fassbender be better suited than Justin Timberlake?!). This article should be renamed "Top 10 Actors that would piss everyone off if cast as Batman" (Except Joseph Gordon Levitt... But only because of his ridiculous talent).
  • Fail
  • this writer sucks throbbing man cock. Listen... Lady... baby doll... why don't you shimmy that sweet little ass of yours, into the kitchen, and fix up some hearty eats for your gentleman lover, or your kid or something. leave the funny making up to us. Intellectually superior man kings.... whore.
