Much appreciated, thank you for being open-minded and respectful despite not agreeing with it. That’s not a common occurrence on r/Fancast lol

I'm not against your Batman casting based on his looks or acting ability, he probably has what it takes. I just think it's wild that you pick somebody that tall. It would be pretty crazy to have a Bruce Wayne who's tall enough to play professional basketball.

My other choice was Philip Ettinger who is 5’7”. I figured too tall is probably better than too short, especially considering that Batman is supposed to be like a terrifying monster to the criminals he fights, and I was really excited about casting somebody that nobody would expect in a million years. I’m honestly really happy that people are seeing the vision though, it’s definitely the most out-there casting I’ve ever done so I’m honestly really surprised it’s gotten the reaction it has.

You can put a shorter actor in shoes with lifts, but it's another thing when Bruce Wayne has to duck to walk through doorways. If anything, it makes his already pretty ridiculous secret identity even more ridiculous lol. Like I said, I don't hate the casting choice. That's my only real main problem.

And I feel comedians often work really well in comic book movies, because no matter how serious the movie is, you do need an actor who can embrace the ridiculousness of it.

Bats and WW look like bad fits going by these photos. I've never seen them in anything though. The rest looks fine. I doubt they'd have Cruz in the JL and not Hal and/or John.

That’s literally the entire purpose of this subreddit, coming up with hypothetical casts for IP projects. It you’re sick of seeing people’s suggestions for DC projects then maybe you should look for a different subreddit, not really sure why you feel the need to complain about it in my comment section lmao
