Justice League: 7 Actors Who Should Play The Flash

6. Chris Pine

A fan-favorite for the part, Chris Pine stole hearts with his re-imagining of arguably one of the greatest captains of all time in JJ Abrams' Star Trek. Personally, I'm not too bent on Pine playing the part, and his inclusion is to give this list some notoriety in the fact that he is wanted by fans. Nothing against his talents as an actor, but Pine doesn't come across, to me, as the type of Flash worth watching in his own film. In many ways, I can see him portraying the hero in the suit, but not Barry Allen, who would be a welcome change of character in contrast to the rest of the Justice League. Like Hemsworth, I'm not fully convinced by Pine taking the role, but I wouldn't put it out of my mind that he could do the part justice as well. I think Pine's a good choice; but certainly not the best one. Let him live out his days continuing as Kirk, so his Star Trek schedules wouldn't interfere with another, budding franchise. Plus he's got the Jack Ryan movies that complicates matters.

Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
