To incarnate a super hero or naughty, the costume is not enough

With the multiplication of the adaptations of comics in film, it is necessary to analyze the performances of the actors. And some have planted well.
The habit does not make the monk, as they say. Accountability is shared with producers. They chose them, so the actors do what they are asked and what they can do. In any case, the cast proved to be a failure and the performances did not mark the spirits. Not in the right way anyway.
Nicolas Cage in Johnny Blaze / Ghost Rider
Nico was also mocked for his sometimes chelous roles, his ridiculous haircuts, his ability to do shit to pick up thunes, and also the fans of Ghost Rider. At the base scary character, it became rather funny and pathetic thanks to the actor . Finally, because of it, suddenly! A memorable performance, but not in the good sense of the word.
Jennifer Garner in Elektra
Level rage and strength, we saw better. And we could have hoped better, especially. Although she is physically fit, sharp, the actress did not meet expectations. Afterwards, there are those who plainly wanted a woman with features and a Greek appearance. Now, Jennifer Garner has no Greek origin, so good, here. Another detail that stings: the producers made a little finger to the fans by taking it back in the spin-off Elektra (2005), after his first role in Daredevil (2003).
Topher Grace in Eddie Brock / Venom
A guy at the top of the class, all cute, a gringalet. So he must incarnate Venom, perhaps the biggest enemy of Spiderman, his evil double, his black side. We would have seen a guy more violent, more flippant, more impressive . Kind with a square head and a neck of beef. Pity.
Halle Berry en Patience Phillips / Catwoman
It could have sticking. But no. The producers did not really respect the origins of the character already, and the actress did not really incarnate Catwoman. Apart from its suppleness and its beauty, question character, it was not folichon . A mixed record for Halle Berry, and this is not the first time to tell the truth.
Jesse Eisenberg in Lex Luthor
Nothing but the look did not fit at all, but then not at all. When you see the guy class, manly, mysterious, and bald comic, you imagine finding the same in the film . At last you hope! But here, a young, thin, long-haired, with a childish way of talking that brings him closer to a teenager, it shocks. So, ok, we catch Lex Luthor / Jesse Eisenberg bald, in his cell at the end, after waiting for the whole movie …
Keanu Reeves in Constantine
The producers had to say to themselves: “Ah vaaaaaa, the comic goes back to 20 pins, we do what we want, it passes .” Except that fans have memory, and that they like consistency. Respect their favorite characters. Seeing Constantine switch from platinum blonde sting to brown / black is already a bit con. Then see him change character, personality, seductive guy, smiling to the solitary, embittered, cold, even more. In terms of recipe, the film did what it needed. As for the kiff for fans, less. Other examples of disappointments in mind?

As if the cast of Justice League was not impressive enough, here is another important personage confirmed to the casting. Find out which!
The Avengers have to stand well! In November 2017, the Justice League will finally form and it promises to send there too heavy, especially as DC Comics tends to be darker and more violent than Marvel. Program: Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, a badass trio we have already seen in action in Batman vs Superman , but Aquaman, The Flash, Cyborg and maybe Green Lantern . At least all that to fight against villains like Ares , Ocean Master , Darkseid or Steppenwolf . Yes, all that! And yet, he still lacks: Lex Luthor . Certainly, his presence at the cast was highly probable, the actor having teased it himself, but nothing had yet been confirmed officially. And this is now done by the Warner Bros studios: Jesse Eisenberg will indeed be back in the skin of Lex Luthor in 2017. The latter will however have a small role, for liaising with the wicked Steppenwolf. After all, it was he who first contacted Steppenwolf in a deleted scene from Batman vs Superman .
But as good news never comes alone, it turns out that another key character from DC Comics will be part in Justice League . And one will discover the in the month of June as solo Wonder Woman movie since it is none other than to Hippolyta , Queen of Themyscira – the island home of Wonder Woman – and incidentally his mother. The actress who embodies it, Connie Nielson, was actually announced at the casting by the studios Warner Bros. Nothing was revealed about his role, but we already imagine that the reunion may well be tense. In Wonder Woman , Diana will indeed decide to break the rules of the Amazons for help from humans, including flying sword “Slayer of the Gods” . In other words, she will probably not be on good terms with her mother. In short, between that, Lex Luthor and the other bad guys, this is looking promising! While waiting to learn more, discover a new official picture with Batman, Wonder Woman and The Flash. And you, what do you think of the return Lex Luthor?
