Casting Call of Teen Titans
Check out the castings of Cyborg and Starfire
Cyborg/Victor Stone – August T. Richards For the team leader, I wanted someone who could play strong, smart, caring and sexy. So I went with August T. Richards from Angel. He played Charles Gunn. In the beginning he was a street smart kid with his gang battling the forces of darkness. And in the end he was a super-smart lawyer. Perfect for Cyborg. Starfire/K'oriander – Amy Acker For the resident alien, who wants to be human, I chose another Angel star. Amy Acker. She brought innocence and brilliance as Fred Burkle. While in the end she played a parisitic host named Illyra. Who was the most powerful member in the show. Raven – Jorga Fox For the resident Goth, I wanted someone who could be moody, goergous and inttelligent. Jorga Fox, from the crime-drama CSI, is the obvious choice. Her character, Sara Sidle, is a survivor of child abuse. And carries the emotional scars to this day. A perfect foil for Beast Boy. Beast Boy/Garfield Logan – Eric Szmanda Speaking of whom, Eric Szmanda is perfect for the role of the resident prankster. In recent comics, Gar stepped up to lead the team in Cyborg's abscence. Not unlike when Greg Sanders went from Lab Tech to crime investigator on CSI. Superboy/Conner Kent – Tom Welling I can't think of anyone better suited to play the clone of Superman and Lex Luthor. Come to think of it, Tom's had that very same job for 5 years on the pre-Superman series, Smallville. From the heroic Clark to the twisted Kal-El to the Red Kryptonite infected 'Evil Clark'. He's got the build, the stare and the right fashion sense. Robin/Tim Drake – Daniel Radcliffe For the current Robin, I wanted someone who could live with billions, play an orphan, be strong and a force to be reckoned with. Naturally I went with Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe. After having 4 movies {and #5 in production} he is the perfect age to play Batman's teen partner. Kid Flash/Bart Allen – Rupert Grint The one thing that I've always loved is the comradardry between Bart and Tim. It mirrors that of Harry and Ron. So I chose Rupert Grint, co-star of the Harry Potter movies. He's got the red hair, the impulsivness and the mean temper. WonderGirl/Cassie Sandsmark – Emma Watson For Wonder Woman's student, I chose the final part of the HP actor trinity. Emma Watson plays Hermione Granger. The female element to the Harry Potter movies. Her character is smart, strong and fearless. If I'm not mistaken, Emma also played in Red Dragon, showing that she can face a very human protagonist. Deathstroke the Terminator – Bruce Boxleitner For the teams villian, I went with vetern TV actor Bruce Boxleitner. He first started out playing a superspy in Scarecrow & Mrs. King. Later he went to the captian's chair in Babylon 5. And he can be currently seen in Young Blades, a show where he trains the future 3 Musketeers to be the best. With a mustach and goatee, no less. A natch for Deathstroke. |
