10 Awesome Actors That Need To Be Cast As A Superhero

4. Brad Pitt

Superhero Qualities: Brad Pitt€™s certainly had roles that can almost qualify as superhero. He portrayed the incredible Benjamin Button who had the ability to age backwards. Not the most sought after power out there. Pitt also portrayed Greek Hero Achilles in which he did an accurate job of portraying a selfish elite warrior. Pitt has been quite picky and choosing his movies lately. Seemingly always in the running for an Oscar may very well veto a superhero movie in Pitt's future, but somewhere down the line it could be an option. Pitt is physically fit, and clearly has no trouble drawing in the ladies. He also has the capability of portraying a moral conflicted, but brave hero based on his portrayal of the aforementioned Achilles. I definitely think Pitt could pull off a superhero more along the lines of a gritty realistic universe like Chris Nolan€™s Dark Knight Trilogy if he were to take part in a superhero project. Potential Casting: John Constantine Hollywood decided to completely throw every likeness with regards to the character out the window with the movie they made starring Keanu Reeves as Constantine which was met with mixed reviews. Enter Brad Pitt and you not only have someone who looks, but also has the acting ability to actual portray someone as complex as John Constantine. Pitt has taken a liking to gritty, violent films, and I think a Constantine remake based more closely on the source material is a match made in heaven.
