Whilst I think he’d fit the part perfectly, being the lead actor in Batman, Terminator and MGS would maybe be a tad overkill for the actor.

Spread out enough though, it could work.

The rumours been going around the net for a while.

Just sounds like a poor attempt by Nuts to be “cool” and “hip”.

Calling that magazine a rag is being overly generous and nice anyway.

Urgh just imagine him doing the croaky Batman voice but with a bandanna on.

Imagine the movie removing all the humour.

I don’t think Hayter writing the screenplay for it could save it.

Christian Bale would be a decent choice, I reckon.
