    Good choices, man. What about your modern cast?
    Tough, but I'll give it a go.
    Bruce Wayne/Batman

    Jon Hamm
    (although I think Ben Affleck is a great choice for the character - I just wanted to go with an alternative to the official choice)
    Andrea Beaumont/The Phantasm

    Rachel McAdams
    (and after 'Gone Girl' maybe Rosamund Pike)
    The Joker

    • I can't think of any specific choice so I'll offer the following:
      Tim Roth
      /
      Crispin Glover
      /
      Alan Cumming
      /
      Adrian Brody
    • do you think any of the are good choices, and who would you pick out of them?
      Alfred Pennyworth

    Clive Merrison
    Commissioner James Gordon

    Bryan Cranston
    Carl Beaumont

    Tom Selleck
    (a good choice, but like I say, I'd prefer him to play Dr. Thomas Wayne, so alternatively, Bruce Greenwood, Treat Williams or Richard Gere)
    Arthur Reeves

    Justin Theroux
    Oh, you English are
    so
    superior, aren't you?

      For the Joker, I would go with Alan Cumming. I also Richard Gere as an alternate Carl Beaumont. Rachel McAdams would be a great Andrea.

          It's decent casting, for sure. How about we up the ante? How about a 70's or 80's (or any other decade) Batman Mask of the Phantasm movie?

            I'll have to give it some thought.
            I have considered alternative Batman casts over the various decades from the 30s onwards before but I might to rethink them.
            I'd love to get your thoughts on casting a live-action B:MOTP for the 70s and 80s but even more interesting would be a hypothetical cast for the entire Batman: The Animated Series cast encompassing all the Rogues' Gallery and key supporting characters.

                  Chuckie Sol - Vincent Cassel, Stephen Graham
                  Salvatore Valestra - Ray Wise, Frank Vincent or Dominic Chianese
                  Det. Harvey Bullock - Michael Rooker, Josh Brolin, Shea Wigham or Michael Shannon

                    the only one i'm certain i would pick is Bryce Dallas Howard as Andrea.
                    Well Tony, nobody wants a war. If we can't do business why we'll just shake hands and that'll be it!
