Recasting Superhero Movies
In case you missed it, the good people over at Pajiba recently posted an article where they recast the future superhero movies with vintage hollywood actors. Their picks are pretty spot on, I especially liked Orson Welles as Lex Luthor. I thought I'd expand on the idea an recast two more of the superhero movies, this time with vintage international actors. Take a look.
Iron Man
Tony Stark- Marcello Mastroianni (8 1/2, Divorce Italian Style)
Pepper Potts- Jeanne Moreau (Jules and Jim, La Notte)
Rhodey- Jean Paul Belmondo (Breathless, Pierrot Le Fou)
Thor
Thor- Jean Gabin (Grand Illusion, La Bete humaine)
Jane Foster- Anna Karina (Band of Outsiders, A Woman is A Woman)
Loki- Anatoli Solonitsyn (Anrei Roblev, The Mirror)
Spiderman
Peter Parker- Jean-Pierre Leaud (400 Blows, Masculin Feminin)
Gwen Stacy- Harriet Andersson (Sawdust and Tinsel, Smiles of a Summer Night)
Lizard- Michel Piccoli (Belle de Jour, Le Mepris)
X-Men
Professor X- Takashi Shimura (Seven Samurai, Ikiru)
Magneto- Max von Sydow (The Seventh Seal, The Virgin Spring)
Wolverine- Toshiro Mifune (Yojimbo, Rashomon)
Cyclops- Alain Delon (Rocco and His Brothers, Le Samourai)
Jean Gray- Monica Vitti (L'Avventura, Red Dessert)
