Matthew David McConaughey (born November 4, 1969) is an American actor. He first gained notice for his supporting performance in the coming-of-age comedy Dazed and Confused (1993), which was considered by many to be his breakout role. After a number of supporting roles in films including Angels in the Outfield (1994) and Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1994), his breakthrough performance as a leading man came in the legal drama A Time to Kill (1996). He followed this with leading performances in the science fiction film Contact (1997), the historical drama Amistad (1997), the comedy-drama The Newton Boys (1998), the satire EDtv (1999), the war film U-571 (2000), and the psychological thriller Frailty (2001). In the 2000s, McConaughey became best known for starring in romantic comedies, including The Wedding Planner (2001), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003), Failure to Launch (2006), Fool's Gold (2008), and Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009), establishing him as a sex symbol. After a two-year hiatus from film acting, McConaughey began to appear in more dramatic roles beginning with the legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer (2011). He was acclaimed for his supporting performances in Bernie (2011), Magic Mike (2012) and The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), and for his leading roles in Killer Joe (2011) and Mud (2012). McConaughey's portrayal of Ron Woodroof, a cowboy diagnosed with AIDS, in the biopic Dallas Buyers Club (2013) earned him widespread praise and numerous accolades, including the Academy Award for Best Actor. In 2014, he starred as Rust Cohle in the first season of HBO's crime anthology series True Detective, for which he was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. His film roles since have included Interstellar (2014), The Sea of Trees (2015), Free State of Jones (2016), Gold (2016), The Dark Tower (2017), and The Gentlemen (2019), earning varying degrees of commercial and critical success, as well as voice work in Kubo and the Two Strings (2016), Sing (2016), and Sing 2 (2021). test
Obviously, Detroit would be the ideal setting for a Cyborg film. STAR Labs and ideally The Red Room would serve as kind of the "base" for Cyborg and his supporting cast. Where Cyborg stores his mementos and goes to unwind. He can be in a safe place where he can sort of turn-off his connection to the world/wifi. The city people should be shown as resilient, but hesitant to accept Cyborg as their hero. That brings us to the next section.Cyborg has, thankfully, had his supporting cast expanded in recent books. Some are obvious, and I'll admit I don't know if all of these characters are alive (I've dodged trailers like crazy just in case). Some of these are rather new to even comics and others are amalgams. Silas Stone: I imagine that Stone would serve as the sort of doting father figure, by Cyborg. Partially blaming himself for what happened to his son and his condition and making Victor uncomfortable with some of his comments. A man of logic, he has trouble accessing and processing his emotions and sounding like a father and less a scientist throughout the movie. Xenophon Clark: AKA. Exxy or Accountable, is an anti-government hacker. He distrusts Cyborg and thinks of him as just a tool to make the NSA more palatable. Eventually comes to trust Victor as more a human than machine. Sarah Charles: While I think a romantic spark should be hinted, I think the foundation of that should be a friendship. Sarah should be helping Cyborg feel more like a human, in his sadder moments when the question comes up. As in the comics, she should be the one that takes him out to be around more people and helps break down how Victor and Silas feel towards each other when they can't say it. She should be a more action-oriented woman. When things go wrong, she's the first to act in the Red Room. Mr. Orr: A government G-man overseeing Project Red Room, and basically the boss of Cyborg as a government agent. He's a bit prejudiced, but not hateful. He sees Cyborg as a weapon and wants more like him serving in the military. He's not a villain, but he's not a friend. Throughout the film, he begins to question his own thoughts regarding Cyborg and the STAR Team, and eventually becoming an uneasy ally. Dr. Will Magnus: A colleague of Dr. Stone and confidant of Cyborg working with the military on Project: Metal Men (which will be hinted at in the film.) Smart, and a bit more OCD than others, he's a nice guy and is always talking about how much he admires who Cyborg is. He's a big fan of Silas' work.
