    Casting "Champions Universe: The Motion Picture"

    Here's a silly thread...

    Who are some actors and actresses that you all think are particularly well-suited to playing Champions Universe characters? I'll start off with one that I think is a slam-dunk no-brainer...

    Christina Ricci as Mind Slayer

    I can see Jennifer Love Hewitt as a super strong girl. I like the idea to see a small girl throwing a truck to the enemy

    So, Jennifer Love Hewitt as Rage

    As in champions universe there isn't a character like this with a contrast between her body and her power/personality (like power girl in DC for example). This is my humble contribution

    Jim Carrey for Foxbat, easily.

    Also, Hugo Weaving for Dr. Destroyer.

    James Marsden as Defender. I see similarities between Cyclops and Defender (both stoic, kind of ... er, plain leader types). Plus Marsden is a good actor and needs another crack at the superhero genre. He'd also play a good rich guy in a tuxedo for the secret ID parts.

    Mechanon probably done as CGI but voiced by Frank Welker.

    Hmmmm....Or maybe Alan Tudyk (who did the motion capture and
    voiced Sonny in 'I, Robot'...and was Wash in 'Firefly'). I think that
    Mechanon could be pretty creepy if given a "quiet, pleasant voice"
    while he was describing reducing humanity to a pile of rotting flesh.
    And he was exceptionally creepy when he played a pederast on an
    episode of 'CSI'....

    Fair enough, though Frank Welker is far too awesome to be left out of this production fictional though it may be.
