Michael B. Jordan is set to play as Hercules in Disney's live action Hercules

- Sly is awesome. Michael B is a douche. Cant they cast Bobby Lashely on the role?
And Rocky wasnt a big heavy-weight. Kevin Sorbo Hercules actually mocked the fact that he wasn't muscular.

And this is why fancasting on sherdog sucks. Lashley is a horrid actor and has no proven ability to draw in the box office. Michael B is bigger than Sly, and even though I didn't find him believable as a HW, the moviegoing public did. He would be fine as Hercules. Not to mention an ancient Greek would be kind of tiny by modern standards.
 
‘Member that wonder of the world? Statue of Zeus at Olympia? Thing was covered in ivory for skin and gold for fabric.

Pepperidge Farm remembers.
 
Honestly, what's the upside to do this shit? They're casting him for race and if they REALLY couldnt find a better actor for the role, people will still believe it.

Pandering is gross when its obvious.

Or he is just a bad actor on a show that wasn’t good either. But hey don’t let reality hurt your feelings
 
I like Micheal B and al,l but he's more Blade (Marvel comic) fit than an Hercules fit.

What makes you think that people weren't also saying the rock was a stupid casting choice at the time?

If there was such a massive outrage then you must be able to some evidence of it, right? I'll wait patiently for you to provide it.

Actual Greek person checking in.

Don't give a fuck. This is a Disney movie so at the end of the day it can be as stupid as it wants to be.

Lol @ making Hercules black though. As if people want that when they are in the mood for ancient Greek lore.

Michael B Jordan is about as a Greek as Kevin Sorbo or Dwayne The Rock Johnson is.

Same as deciding to cast the lead in a Danish folk tale with a black chick /facepalm

- The world loves The Rock. He is never a bad choice.

- Hercules is described as being a giant of a man.
Bro, if you like weaklings, go for it. But let muscular men for us that understand about it!

BTW. Bad mouth my man Lashley in front of me that we're gonna thrown kicks. (I do taekwondo and we cant punch)

I wonder if a white guy will ever get a lead role in a Disney film ever again.

- Isnt the marjority of Disney leading actors white?
It's looks like Kennedy is more interested in killing Walter company. That Lady and the Tramp reboot was horrendous. That movie was so awesome:(

Yes there is. There are tons of ancient Greek statues depicting Hercules. He clearly has a small flaccid penis.

- Like a real bodybuilder. Unless were talking aboiut Kai Greene!
Why we cant get Kai to play Hercules? Besides the fact that he carries Herc famous mace btw his legs of course!o_O

Jordan would be considered quite tall by ancient Greek standards, let alone before flattering camera work. I have no idea why you think Lashley would be great. Your kind of fancasting is is how you end up with Batman and Robin's Bane being dogshit lol.

Also nice job ignoring the point that you found Sly believable as a HW boxer despite Jordan being a significantly larger dude.
 
meh - not even going to pretend like I'm going to care. I will never see it - hard to care about something you dgaf about.
 
All the little Greek boys so excited to see their legend on the big screen, portrayed by the most popular actor in Greece, Michael Jordan.

Disney knows what they’re doing, no one says “hmmm the best actor to play a Greek is a black guy” they say “let’s change his race”

- Didn't you get that i am joking?
And of course i would chose Lashley to play Hercules, i love the guy.

I liked Jeep Swenson. Lou Ferrigno would be a better Bane thought, they wanted to cast Kennan Rhoder as Bane back in the day, but he doesn't looks as big and menacing wihout Jason Make-up, he cond't look bigger than Arnie or even O-Donnel. The stunt team knew Jeep and recomend him to Joel.

I really dont like M B being cast as Hercules thought, give to some swollen dude.

ever heard of Memnon?

lol jk, ik you know nothing about Greek mythology, so i’m just fuckin’ w/ you.

Memnon, apparently the king of the Ethiopians, not Greek, Ethiopian meaning he looks more like an Abdi than a Michael Jordan
