(EDIT - 10/16/19 - It took me 6 days to complete this, but I now have every role casted. You are now able to suggest roles!) (Credit to Phil Cho (https://www.philchoart.com/ and https://www.deviantart.com/phil-cho) and Roy Westerman (https://www.deviantart.com/roysovitch) for Earth-27 Character Images. I'm not sure if it was a collab or not, but thanks for the amazing artwork!) Hello! My name is TJ Hoffman and today I will be recasting the entire DCEU from the top to the bottom. Allow me to explain the scenario I’ve created to base all of my casting decisions off of. Here’s the list of things to keep in mind about the scenario: - First, I will be assuming all control over the casting. - To keep it simple, my budget will be unlimited and will not affect my decisions. - I will be utilizing the conscious mind and memory that I have with me today. - The first film in the Universe will be released in 2010. - I’m pretending the Dark Knight Trilogy and Superman Returns have not been made, and the Green Lantern film isn’t in production. Everything before that remains. - I’m not allowed to cast actors in roles that they’ve already played before (on the contrary, I am allowed to cast actors for roles who they have voiced before in animated films). To make it more challenging, however, I’m also not allowed to cast actors who are already in the DCEU, or any other live-action DC Movie/TV show that has been made after 2010, to the rule as well. Sorry Gal Gadot fans.
