6. Andrew Lincoln
Before The Walking Dead, Id never in a million years have pictured Andrew Lincoln in the cape and cowl. I mean, before The Walking Dead, I knew him for his turns in the British TV comedies This Life and Teachers; not exactly the kind of CV youd expect from a potential Batman pick. However, with his run as protagonist Rick Grimes in AMCs hugely popular Zombie series, Ive recently had a massive change of heart. Suddenly, hes a player, and the game is who plays Batman next. Hes got the intensity for sure; anyone whos seen the Walking Dead will know that. Others look more believably like Bruce Wayne, no doubt, but as Ive said, the look is only half the battle. For my money, Lincoln has proven that hes got what it takes to wear the Bat mantle; this is casting that Id be openly excited to see happen.
