Speaker 1: Potential, Uh just comic book casting potential. Biggird way to
phrase that. But the if I'm not mistaken, the Oscar
winner of this year, mike Mikey Madison.
Speaker 2: She did win an Oscar and then, yes, I was correct.
Speaker 1: I don't watch the Oscars, but I was pretty certain
that she was a winner of it. She's one of
the names on a potential Marvel wanted list.
Speaker 2: Well, of course, yeah, how can you not what she
just wanted to name one director or studio that doesn't
want to work with Mikey Madison Right now, she's on
top of the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't think of one. Yea even even GV
Productions wants her. Oh, absolutely, we can't afford her, unfortunately,
rolls unknown. You know, I think you really liked Nora.
I can't remember because we never did a review for it.
Speaker 2: I did, it didn't make it very far in many
Golden Geeks categories. Swept the Oscars instead, So you know,
maybe she's happier with that then winning Golden Gate categories.
But I don't know.
Speaker 1: I I'll have to ask her for sure, But you know,
I I absolutely loved Do Nora. I think it's easily
one of my favorite movies of last year. And uh yeah,
I'm not really surprised by seeing this. It's it's the
same thing when I watch something like Euphoria or like
like just a new show that's out, and it's just
amazing because people just give so much shout out to
specific actors or actresses or whoever's in it. And did
not disappoint for me with with Mikey Madison pick of
course and who do.
Speaker 2: You got for?
Speaker 1: Where?
Speaker 2: Where would you where would you slap her down? Which care?
Speaker 1: I mean that would be a black cat for me.
I feel like, yeah, that was as well. That one
comes pretty yeah, pretty natural. I mean I've only seen
her as the character of a Nora, so like, I
don't know how Versatyle is, but she she is, so
she disn't once to put on in Hollywood.
Speaker 2: Yeah, remember she gets the can chucked at her head
at the end of the movie.
Speaker 1: That's her.
Speaker 2: I actually did not know that.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, Okay, So I have seen her more more
things than just an aura. I feel like you would
have to be like a very fiery type character. Of course,
now that I have, oh yeah, that crazy hippie in
my mind. Now, oh maybe circle back to me, maybe
stew on that one a little bit. But uh and
then the the other name in here was David Johnson.
I'm sorry, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 2: Just by Hey, you do Andy from Alien Romulus?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, come on David Johnson. See these are two
We're like, I'm not surprised when I like see the faces,
like yeah, people want these these actors and actresses like yeah,
that makes sense.
Speaker 2: Is exactly what you already talked about.
Speaker 1: Again. Another character that can kind of beam many things.
He could be any any type of android. We know,
he could check that box. M I don't know, I
don't know. He help me out here.
Speaker 2: It could be Ultron's son, Ultron's son. Yeah, if you
want another robot, you know, my other one from Mikey
was Jessica Jones. I think could be interesting pick for her.
Just you know, I do want ridder back, and it
seems like a lot of these Netflix people are coming back,
So if I had my preference, just give me a
ridder back. Let's go continue that that character and storyline.
But I do think that could be an interesting role
for her, whether that is her just popping up in
their devil and other things. Or if there is another
season of Jessica Jones that eventually happens. But yeah, I
think that could be a fun kind of role for her.
As for David Johnson, my maybe it's like a bit
of a generic pick here, but I was thinking, you know,
in the last Black Panther movie, we got young Oh
my god, is it to chall Is it his name's
also to 'challa? Right? New kid? Yeah, but I think,
you know, realistical, what we're gonna do is like age
that kid up for the next Black Panther thing to
be the next to Challa. I feel like David Johnson
could be a pretty good pick for that, if like,
let's let's throw that in like the Young Avengers realm,
if we kind of go that direction, yep, Because I
don't know how old that kid was, maybe like twelve
or something like that, but if you add a few
years on him, David Johnson could like fit that kind
of Now. I don't know if really what I saw
in Alien, that's the only thing I've seen him in
like really evokes that type of character, but that was
the first one that came to mind to me. Just
for like the age group, I feel like he would
be kind of set up for a young Avengers kind
of thing, and that would be really cool. So yeah,
I think that'd be interesting. I feel like he's still
a little bit under the radar, but obviously that was
a great performance for him last year in Alien, so
hopefully he joins the world of Marvel. I think that'd
be really cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, absolutely, I mean, yeah, no, Sorry, I had
my mind on who I would cast, but yeah, no,
that's I think pretty much anything he would excel at.
Speaker 2: Okay, I got another one from Mikey here. Okay, Kitty Pride.
Speaker 1: I think I think would be really interesting because I'm
I feel like next time we're gonna see Kitty Pride too.
She's gonna be a lot bigger of a character than
we seen her in the past with the Fox Universe.
But yeah, I'm hoping for a more kind of like
how we had Rogue in the Fox Universe, a character
more centered around.
Speaker 2: Give me a Rogue, give me Mikey Madison Rogue.
Speaker 1: That's what I want as well. But again, pretty much
anyone she'll be phenomenal at.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't think she'll do it right now
in her career.
Speaker 1: She's gonna be Oscar she's gonna be she doesn't need
the GV Golden Geek Award yet, She's gonna be just
hold onto that Oscar.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel like maybe she'll pull like a Emma
Stone and like win an Oscar and then just go
do a bunch of freakish yourgos movies and things like that.
I feel like that would be That's what I would
do if I were her. I mean, I'd also be
in Marvel. If I were her, that'd be cool. But
I don't I feel like she would. She would probably
wait for the right role, And I just don't know
what kind of like woman led like Marvel movie, like
maybe a TV show, but like movie is happening in
the near future. I don't know if she just wants
to just be a character in Nonselemble. I feel like she's, uh,
she's so hot right now, so she can take whatever
the heck she wants, And I don't know, I just
don't know if there's the right role or movie that
exists for her right now. Would be maybe my my thought,
but maybe we're selling how big of a deal she is.
We'll have to wait and see, because we still haven't
really seen the fallout of her winning this oscar and
being a big deal remains to be seen.
Speaker 1: That's absolutely true. I feel like, yeah, you bring up
a great point. I feel like the likely scenario would
be her being maybe like a like a one off
villain or something like like the main hype villain could
be fun like another one that I did see when
I was quickly googling was like a Madame Hydra. I
don't even know who that character is, but I'm like,
that sounds awesome. I think Hydro's kind of you know,
in the past from where we are on the MCU,
but I know Zolid randomly popped up at some point.
Speaker 2: It's too close to Madame Web for me, so I'm
not not liking that for a name change.
Speaker 1: Mikey, Yeah, that's fair. Mademoiselle Hydro, they add a little
bit flair to it. I don't know. I I think
because you brought up, you know, the point of just
she is so hot right now, and she doesn't really
necessarily the would want to like pair up with like
a big ensemble thing. She she is just like the
star of the show. But who knows, maybe she really
wants to get in the comic book game. We'll treat
and see.
Speaker 2: Cool. Do you have any others for David Johnson? Did
you have any have any any castings for for him?
Speaker 1: I just don't know, like what, Like I would want
it to be a bigger character, and I feel like
I'm just having a harder time picturing who's going to
be popping up in like one of those type of roles.
Like my mind, I still just don't believe Blade is
gonna come out at all, But I feel like I
don't know some sort of appearance in a Blade like
show where it's just like a more mature setting. Maybe
my mind's just too attached to the Romulus setting for
that character. But yeah, I don't know. I I just
I'm having a hard time picking up who who could
be appearing? Yeah with his face?
Speaker 2: Is there an X my character that makes sense for him?
Speaker 1: I just don't know where we're gonna be jumping in
with the X Men on like who they're gonna be
choosing as like their first appearances. I mean, we already
kind of talked about Jean Grave rumors, but we do
have a rumor. Johnson, you can get to that if
you want, sure. Yeah, sorry, I'm I'm lacking on my.
Speaker 2: I'm blanket too on. Too many deep cuts for him
right now, too.
Speaker 1: Many deep cuts. Speaking of deep cuts, we got Jesse
Plemmons coming off.
Speaker 2: Hot of Civil War kinds of kindness, I would say,
hot off. I never saw. That's why I wasn't in
He's wild in that movie you gotta watch at.
Speaker 1: Some point He's okay, Yeah, I will. Is that the
one with Willem Dafoe as well?
Speaker 2: And yeah it's the Your Ghost movie from last year?
Speaker 1: Oh Your ghosts okay and three three different timelines or
storylines or something like that. Okay, that is the one
I was thinking of.
Speaker 2: But he's kind of like the lead, the star of
the like all of them pretty much.
Speaker 1: So Plemings is yeah, okay, nice. I I really like
him in the roles that I've seen him in, but
I feel like the roles that I've seen him in
are like very character actor type role, So I in
my mind, I just assume him being this like really disturbing,
fucked up guy. I've seen him in, like Breaking Bad
in Civil War. But you know who's not a fucked
up and crazy guy is mister Beast himself.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Beast is pretty normal, very normal, I would say, he's
like very philosophical with the way that he speaks.
Speaker 2: He's very high intellect.
Speaker 1: So just because of my past of Jessemons, I don't
necessarily think of him right away, but uh, I'm down
for it. I think it would be really really interesting.
Just side of Jesse Plemmons, I feel like when I
look at him again, it's just hard for me to
not see like the crazy psychos that he's played in
the past.
Speaker 2: But he's kind of got.
Speaker 1: A nice, like gentle teddy bearism to him.
Speaker 2: And you know, yeah Blue.
Speaker 1: Give him a furry little hairdoo and some sideburns.
Speaker 2: You think they'll they'll do that instead of CGI. You
think they'll paint him blue.
Speaker 1: Maybe like the eyes around you know, like he's running
a full moke, But they just they just batman's circles. No,
I think CGI is more likely. But yeah, that's stress
up blue for the audition.
Speaker 2: Right right. He that's he's you know, he gets into
the role. He's a method actor. It's probably not that's
the thing. Is like, not that he's a beautiful man
that I need to see visually on my screen. But
I don't want him in a CGI roll. I want
I want plumbings. I want the acting, and I don't
really want like weird if he's CGI. And I also
don't think a beast is gonna be like the main guy.
I think he'd be in the side, which I feel
like is kind of where Jesse Plemmons normally is. So
I do think on paper, a lot of it makes sense.
I just want like a spicier pick. But I also
was looking through so many characters today I couldn't come
up with one off the top of my head. So
maybe it does just make sense. But I don't know.
I want him to be weirder, I guess, and maybe
that's me typecasting him because I just love him when
he's weird. But I do think he could pull off
Hank mccai. I feel like he could pull off most
characters because such a great actor. But yeah, I do,
I think I want some a little a little freaker,
a little more beastly than just beast.
Speaker 1: You know that's fair, that's fair?
Speaker 2: YEA.
Speaker 1: What if because you still like you still want to
see him. What if it's like how they have Mark Ruffalo,
where like you very much see Mark Ruffo's face in
the CGI, but it is still a CGI character.
Speaker 2: And I guess Beast some iterations kind of can go
back and forth to some extent, right, Yeah, that's very true.
I just feel like by the time we get Beast
in mc U proper other than like the Grammar post
critics scene, Like, I don't I don't think we're going
full origin story. I don't think we're gonna have a
sequence of like Pleming's non covered a paint, you know,
I think he's always gonna be covering that paint.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think I would agree, just because we
kind of already went through a somewhat origin with like
the Days of the Future pass. What is that actor's name?
He was just a naughfaratu, I'm blanking old Holt. Yes,
thank you for this Holt. So yeah, I would also
just like him as being like the pillar and another
another one for me with this plumb this thing is
just like doubling back on how I just see him
as that one type of character. I want to have
a role where I'm like, Okay, yeah, I know he
is a gentleman and a nice guy. I'm sure he
is in real life married to the Greek Kristen. Oh
my gosh, I have too many Christians in my in my.
Speaker 2: Mind, he's married to Kristin Dunn's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, okay, cool, I'm I'm gonna
have to double check that right now cause I don't want.
Speaker 2: To say so. The Civil War, the Civil War duo
that probably came up. Yeah, a Civil War review and
I just my memory once again.
Speaker 1: Married twenty twenty two. They're still going for them.
Speaker 2: Good for those kids. Were you at the wedding and everything?
Speaker 1: I couldn't make it. They sent the rs VP.
Speaker 2: Though you were busy filming Adrina Chrome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't let me bring au plus one and
I'm like, well fuck, I'm not going then, but thanks
for the thought, guys.
Speaker 2: Anything else on the on the plums, No, I don't think.
I don't know if we have a tear for that one.
But do you think that's do you think that's the
realm they're going like, there's the older older why beast version?
I could see it. I could see this one.
Speaker 1: What would be your percentage?
Speaker 2: I'll go the thirty six.
Speaker 1: Okay, still pretty low.
Speaker 2: It's pretty high though, for just like a random ask. Yeah, no,
that's fair, you say it. Chance that it happens, that's
pretty good.
Speaker 1: That's actually pretty dark good. I'm gonna go fifty two.
I'm over the hump on this one. That hump, yeah yeah, okay,
flip heads and tails. I would get that tails a
little bit more than the heads, slightly more, slightly more. Okay,
our very last MCU rumor, we just lost our our
our letter grades on these, but so we don't know
the letter grade. But a I already brought it up today.
The Blade, the Ever, the Blade, the moby Dick of
the MCU projects. I believe it's it's a fallacy. We're
never gonna see this project. So people are still talking
about it. Apparently David Leech as a as a Leachman,
the Leachman, so what we call them now? I like
it though, the Leachman for the Blade director. Apparently the
project is now internally listed as a post Secret Wars project.
No shit, I feel like this movie should have came
out a long time ago. We're gonna being Secret Wars
no time here by the time, you know, Blake gets
any more information out. But what about you? Are you
like me? Are you just a downer and a pessimist
and you just don't think this is ever gonna be
a thing. Even though I love the initial casting. It
was so hype around that time, watching Eternals.
Speaker 2: Six years ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the voice is still in the ether.
Speaker 2: But what about you?
Speaker 1: Are you?
Speaker 2: Are you? I've been on the optimistic side, but when
I hear news like this, like oh yeah, we're just
kicking that down the road again like past Avengers, it's like,
oh God, that's not very good. So I don't know.
I mean, I think with what we've got set up
for Avengers now, like you don't really need Blade in there.
Like we have enough characters to we have enough you know,
chess pieces to play with here, we don't need Blade.
So it's fine, kick them to the next era. Maybe
the next era has like a Midnight Suns sort of situation,
Marvel Knight's kind of thing, and maybe Blade makes a
lot of sense to kick that little mini arc off.
So I think it makes sense. But yeah, I just
as as the years go on, I get more and
more worried that Marshall Lie will just dip and do
other stuff, and that would be a real missed opportunity
because he would be really great there. So yeah, I
hope that it happens. In terms of David Leech, though,
for anyone who forgets director of Deadpool two, Fast and Furious,
Hobbs and Shaw, Bullet Train, and Fall Guy. So I
love I love Fall Guy, I love Deadpool. I haven't
seen Fast and Furious. Bultroom was pretty good too, So
he's like a good director who makes a very specific
type of movie, though, and that's not the kind of
vibe I want for Blade. I don't want jokey comedic.
I want like dark and serious, little horror vibes, some
scary stuff. So not to say that he can't do it,
I'm sure he's capable, but this is not my this
is not my preferred pick. I think there's a lot away,
like a ton of other great Marvel projects that he
would be great for. Obviously he's done Dudpool before, but
I don't really want him in there for Blades, So
I'm hoping that this is not true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's a great point. I think just the
overall tone of pretty much all those movies, like Deadpool
two dabbles into some serious stuff, but like still, for
the most part, it is a comedy at its bones.
And then of course Bulletrain and Fall Guy are both
like fully centered around that comedic side, and it's really
not what I would have expected the just and you know,
maybe this is going to be a super serious flick
if he is the one that's actually attached to it
and this does actually come out. But I just feel
like us getting this news now and set up after
a post Secret Wars it makes me think that they
probably shifting their initial idea of what they were going
to do for that Blade project, and I didn't even
get or I don't know. I don't know if many
did like the initial pitch for what they were going
to do with that Blade because that was so long ago,
but I just not really where I would have pinned it.
So yeah, yeah, he's a good points showing that out.
Speaker 2: He's also a producer on all of the John Wick stuff.
How do you feel about like John Wick vibe for Blade?
Do you think that's a good parent because that actually
makes a little more sense to me, that's like, okay,
now we're in the same cauldron.
Speaker 1: No, one hundred percent. I think that something that comes
to mind initially when I think of Blade is just
like the high energy action. I still think Blade has
like one of the best openings of any action movie ever,
are you familiar with with like the nightclub scene when
they just are like spraying blood out of the sprinklers
and then you just chopping up everyone at night. Yeah,
just just phenomenal. So I think that is very much
more on the tone of what I would have expected
for a Blade, But I like, I also like what
you said though of like maybe a more horror aspect
to it, because it's creatures of the night that he's
facing down. And yeah, just just the David Leach tone
of it, I think makes me think that going in
an opposite direction of that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, and always see obviously he's like got a
big love for the stunt men of the world. With
that's why Fall guys all about kind of a love
letter to them. I think that like to have some
really just badass, really well choreographed stunts and cool things
for Blade, like that seems like a pretty good pairing.
If we could get like a really acrobatic, you know,
not Marshali doing all these jumps off stuff, but get
someone who looks like him to do some cool stunt
I think that could be a really fun pairing as well.
It could really fit with like the the vampiric kind of.
I don't know movements that you would normally get in stuff.
So I do think there is a couple points of
potential that makes sense for this. It would really just
be a tone thing. But I think if you get
a good the right writer, then maybe he could be
the just the good pairing right as long as the
writer is making the tone a specific way, maybe he
could help bring that to life with his skill set. So,
and you know, directors can do a lot of different
things in their career. I just haven't necessarily seen that
from him in the works I've seen him do so
interesting choice, for sure. Well said, yeah.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, if you've nothing else to add, I
have nothing else to add. So we will skip on
over to our first ad break and we'll be back
to unravel some some DC stuff. So here we go.
