Everyone who is anyone has appeared in a comic book movie havent they? Well not quite. Ever since Marlon Brando took a squillion dollars per second salary to play Jor-El in Superman The Movie the comic book genre has been seen as legitimate enough to attract the finest talent in the business. After all if it was good enough for Brando its good enough for anyone, and A-list actors are known for their fondness of squillion dollar salaries. Despite Brandos money-spinning trailblazing though there are still a few megastars out there who for one reason or another have yet to grace the cape and tights genre with their talents. What follows is a list of some of the greatest names in the business who have yet to earn their super-wings and a suggestion on who they could play if they ever do decide to play in the funny books sandbox. The characters selected have been chosen specifically as to what roles may be coming up in the future, rather than fantasy casting them in roles that are presently filled. This results in some interesting choices, which in some cases could be considered cameos and guest roles to a degree, but also demonstrates that each of these household names potentially arent above kicking it with a different kind of Power Pack.
As well as the odd article, I apply my "special mind" to scriptwriting for Comics, Films and Games... Oh and I cut down trees, I skip and jump, I like to press wild flow'rs, I put on women's clothing, and hang around in bars.
