2. Green Lantern - Oscar Isaac

With the 2011 Green Lantern movie being the subject of permanent ridicule - particularly from its star, Ryan Reynolds - it's no surprise that DC hasn't had another run at the character on-screen.

Yet, with how enjoyable the hero has been across the pages of the comics, it would be a shame for him to be left without his own (good) big screen adventure - even if it is alongside several other of the Earth-based members of the Lantern Corps.

As for who should portray Jordan, Oscar Isaac would simply be perfect for the role. His appearances in everything from Star Wars to the the very recent Triple Frontier have depicted his penchant for playing a slightly more nuanced action hero and his roles in the likes Operation Finale and Life Itself have shown how he is also brilliant at displaying emotion - something that would integral for a superhero whose entire power set is based around the emotional spectrum.
