This morning on the Howard Stern show, actor Ryan Phillippe told Howard that he was in talks with Marvel for something on Netflix. The 40-year old actor is currently starring in ABC’s Secrets And Lies… and ABC is owned by Disney. The major role that hasn’t been cast yet in the Netflix / Marvel deal is of course Daniel Rand / Iron Fist, Phillippe would definitely be a name to lead the fourth of the planned series. There has also been a rumor floating around about The Punisher joining the Netflix family of originals… he would make an interesting Frank Castle. Or maybe he is inline to be a villain… maybe even Bullseye for the second season of Daredevil.

hmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteCan't they just cast him as Spider-Man?
ReplyDeleteIt'd be great to know that a good actor fullfills that spot
I'm not sure they want a 40 year old Spiderman though.
ReplyDeleteI still can't wrap my head around the fact he is 40. He looks younger than me,
ReplyDeleteUgh, Ryan Phillippe's a terrible actor. I really hope this doesn't pan out. I fear he could be a deal-breaker for me.
ReplyDeleteI like him but: Not Danny not Danny not Danny...
ReplyDeleteBullseye? Maaaaaaybe... bit maybe...
It's that he has the type of baby face that ages well...
ReplyDeleteI wonder what that means for S&C?
ReplyDeleteHe's an eye candy but the guy can't act.Sorry.
ReplyDeleteIt was already announced as an anthology series.Detective Cordell will move on from Ben to another new mystery next season.
ReplyDeleteHe is so hot! I do agree with Joy that his acting is odd
ReplyDeleteI've seen him give good performances, but I'll concede he's kinda limited as an actor. Also his voice is waaaaaaay too distracting. And please note I do like him...
ReplyDeleteYeah really well, but at times his "overathletic" body doesn't suit his head/face.
ReplyDeleteI'll consider him in any role(Not any netflix show though) as long he promises to remain shirtless most of the time.LOL!Otherwise,not so much!
ReplyDeleteHe is a hit and miss actor for me really..
ReplyDeleteEh, the body I can deal with.
ReplyDeleteFor me it's the voice that just doesn't match anything about him...
It must be a healthy life style.
ReplyDeleteDoes Lucy Lawless look 47, Lynda Carter 63, Jane Seymour 64, or Jaclyn Smith 69 ?
Out of curiosity what have you seen him in?
ReplyDeleteI was shocked when i learned Lucy was 47!!
ReplyDeletehe looks 29 though
ReplyDeleteTrue...
ReplyDeleteHe does but even 29 is too old for where they want to take Spiderman.
ReplyDeleteHis movies,many of them-The latest being Catch Hell.I did like him in Cruel Intentions though.
ReplyDeletewell...not that I'm agreeing where they want to take Spidey in the first place. Rather college aged than a teen
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they're in talks with other actors too. It'll be interesting if they're looking for a Punisher and would add into that rumor of a Thunderbolts miniseries after The Defenders.
ReplyDeleteAnd you didn't like him Way of the Gun? Flags of out Fathers? Stop loss? Crash?
ReplyDeleteWell that's a problem I think you'll need to let go of altogether then....
ReplyDeleteI kinda want them to bring back the Spider-Man musical cast. I've enjoyed what I've seen of both the Spider-Man and Green Goblin actors.
ReplyDelete...in fact the musical Goblin is my favourite version of the Green Goblin. He's totally channeling his inner Gaga/Madonna.
Yeah, they all are quite youngish. But probably a combination of genetics, lifestyle and some devine powers.
ReplyDeleteI'll give you Crash.
ReplyDeleteExcited for what it might be! Love him in secrets and lies and will miss him next season
ReplyDeleteDivine,you mean.
ReplyDeleteYes! Hadn't seen him in anything until Secrets and Lies and I love him in it. Really want to see him in more stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe enter Digg, Laurel and The Canary Cry to f**k Al Sahim's head! ;) Let's add Thea into the mix, too! This is gonna be good!
ReplyDeleteYou haven't seen him in anything but that show?
ReplyDeleteHave you slept through the 90s and early 2000s? ^^
ummmm
ReplyDeleteYes that.
ReplyDeleteI think you might be on the wrong thread..
ReplyDeleteYes! Jajajaja Ops! xD
ReplyDeleteShe ment Devina as in Adam Devine, the guy looks like 13 but is 31
ReplyDelete...
ReplyDeleteNo but in my defense I wasn't born till 95! When I looked him up though he wasn't really in anything that would be the type of thing I'd watch anyway.
ReplyDeleteLOL!She just said that was a typo.
ReplyDeleteDidn't the Spiderman actors rope rip?
ReplyDeleteI feel old...
ReplyDeleteMultiple times. Apparently half the cast left after one of them nearly died.
ReplyDeleteLol I think I'm the odd one out, most people seem to be much older than me, not that I actually know a lot of people's ages.
ReplyDelete95?You are making me feel bad!LOL!
ReplyDeleteI was born in 94 so...
ReplyDeleteYou need to watch Flags of our Fathers, Cruel Intentions, Nowhere, I know what you did Last Summer, Way of the Gun, Crash (WATCH IT NOW) and Breach ASAP
Ming-Na Wen doesn't look 51 either.
ReplyDeleteThat production was a mess, never seen it but I would love to find some recording of it
ReplyDeleteI still hope they bring her back to play Mulan in the live action movie.
ReplyDeleteYou are younger than me? That display picture makes you look like a guy in his 30s.
ReplyDeleteI know it was but it did fit, just look at the guy
ReplyDeleteWHAT?!
ReplyDeleteI....I look that unatractive and old?
Must just be a taste thing then, I have all those downloaded but none of them sound like my thing, haven't gotten around to watching any of them yet. I'll move Crash up to the top of the list though!
ReplyDeleteErm, what?
ReplyDeleteCan't they just cast him as "Super Naked Man"? Isn't that a superhero character? Cause GAWD that man does NOT need to have any clothes on....
ReplyDeleteIf you're into horror you'll love I Know what you did Last Summer, kinda started the whole teen slasher thing ^^
ReplyDeleteThere was a full recording of it on youtube. Not sure if its still up. Goblin is amazing though
ReplyDeleteHere's one of his songs from Letterman:
http://shakefire.com/video/spider-man-turn-off-the-dark-a-freak-like-me-needs-company-late-show-performance
And now I feel really old...
ReplyDeleteRP can be a miss sometimes, but that's pretty much my list of his good performances too.
I never said unattractive, that was you. But you do look old in that photo. And you do seem to have some stress lines on your forehead, or maybe it's just the photo.
ReplyDeleteMe too, and I'm only 23.
ReplyDeleteI guess I have my list then, wasn't sure which of his movies to watch. I liked the look of Catch Hell as well though.
ReplyDeleteThey totally missed an opportunity at not selling the thing on DVD
ReplyDeleteLOL! Me too! Though I've never mis-posted in a thread yet, I know it's bound to happen eventually.
ReplyDelete...your younger then me?
ReplyDeleteWut
I feel so old
I was fishing there :P
ReplyDeleteNah, I had my eyes wide opened there
You look BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteOkay, now she doesn't look that young.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, you're also more mature than me by dafault ;P
ReplyDeleteFishing: success!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Knife too my heart even with that information!
ReplyDeleteSomeone born in the 80s come save me!
Hahaha!This i totally agree with.
ReplyDelete1987 here.
ReplyDeletethis x2
ReplyDeleteMaybe the know Adeline's secret. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank goodness! I'm 1985, so still older, but that's better...
ReplyDeleteApparently they were meant to but Marvel axed it. A similar thing happened with the Japanese Spider-Man show because they were embarrassed by it. It became available through other methods though.
ReplyDeleteHahaha!We have each other!
ReplyDeleteYou should watch the Friends episode "The One Where They All Turn 30".
ReplyDeleteCould've made some money back the production clearly lost, their loss. I would've bought a copy
ReplyDeleteThey still haven't released the 70s tv series on DVD yet...
It's what I'll do on my birthday!
ReplyDeleteThat's only 8 years older though! I have brothers and sisters even older!
ReplyDeleteSure. ^_^
ReplyDeleteDon't be sad, you'll roll into your prime there!
ReplyDeletenow you know most of ours :P
ReplyDeletedouble success! :P
ReplyDelete...
ReplyDeleteI'm meant to be the mature one but then here I am watching Power Rangers on Netflix...
All Hail Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd!
LOL!
ReplyDeleteDon't give me lip kid! I'm older than you! :P
ReplyDeleteWho here isn't still rewatching the Mighty Morphin era? It's how we television addicts were born ;)
ReplyDelete51?! I didn't know that; I'm shocked. I thought she was like 30 or something around that
ReplyDelete:D Oh good, I'm still younger then someone.
ReplyDelete^^
but mooooooooom ;)
ReplyDeleteLol, thanks to this extremely off topic thread of comments I do!
ReplyDeleteasians, they have amazing genes.
ReplyDeleteRewatching?
ReplyDeleteNo Mac, this is the first time I'm watching Power Rangers. :)
I've watched the original Super Sentai for some of the series in Japanese. I miss how they cut out Rita Repulsa (Majou Bandora) randomly breaking out into song though.
Yes, this post went really off topic, all thanls to @maclives
ReplyDeleteReally? Can you take the show serious at all? ^^
ReplyDeleteI've never seen the Sentai but it's logicatically really interesting how they managed to cut together the US version from scraps of the sentai
For most of the animated Marvel shows you have to look at either Australia, the UK or Japan. They've gotten everything on DVD except the final season of X-Men Evolution.
ReplyDeleteAh that young whippersnapper :P
ReplyDeleteI could see Phillipe as USAgent....or Speedball :P
ReplyDeletedidn't mean the animated series but the live action one
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMcCt2Ag4Sg
The 16th series which was adapted into the first series of Power Rangers is available with official subtitles if your curious: http://www.amazon.com/Super-Sentai-Zyuranger-Yuuta-Mochizuki/dp/B00P9UVC0I
ReplyDeleteIt even includes all of Bandora's musical moments:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyNbF4J64Kk
*bows* why thank you kind sir.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that what I'm usually here for? To derail conversations ;)
And if you're into Tarrantino/Rodriguez type stuff Way of the Gun should be something you'll enjoy.
ReplyDeletePR was weird but this musical number is.....god-like xD
ReplyDeleteI'll buy that version (on a sidenote: am I the only one thankfull for Shout! re-releasing old shows? These guys have been doing an amazing job)
Ah that one, I think Marvel is embarrassed by that too :P
ReplyDeletesure they are but that show was glorious, too glorious not to see a full series release ;)
ReplyDeleteGotta love Shout! :) I was so happy when they picked up Jem And The Holograms and The Nanny.
ReplyDeleteWeirdest thing when a show about a pop idol is in the same continuity as Transformers G1, G.I. Joe and My Little Pony.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzhxSyMYezk
;) not to worry, they made up for it by making this available digitally:
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MxGtH-2duM
He is DEFINITELY too old to play Danny Rand. I think he would be cool as Bullseye.
ReplyDeleteMLP is in the same continuity as Transformers? I was aware that GI Joe and Transformers (plus MASK and TMNT) had some crossovers but I didn't know about My Little Pony o.O
ReplyDeleteOh this cartoon looks so dated....LOVE it
lol, I've got to watch this xD
ReplyDeleteYears ago they planned a MLP movie where they met both the Transformers and G.I. Joe. It didn't end up happened though, however one of the transformers books lists MLP and various other shows as in continuity still.
ReplyDeleteReally! wow... I thought you were in your late twenties... I was born in 89 and I feel geriatric right now... You guys are making me feel old and I turned 26 last friday. I'M NOT OLD! yet...
ReplyDeleteI started feeling old when I said 10 years ago "wasn't that long ago" and I'm only 20...
ReplyDeleteIt actually carries historical value. The Tokusatsu genre added giant robots due to this Spider-Man show.
ReplyDeleteYou know what make me feel the oldest? Music. It happens to me all the time, suddenly this song comes on the radio and I'm all like "OMFG! I used to love this song when I was in school!" and then I start doing the math and that was like 8/10/12 years ago, and I feel so old... I try to make myself feel better by saying it's not my fault they don't make decent music anymore, and then I realize how old that makes me sound and I feel worst, lol!
ReplyDeleteHell yeah!
ReplyDeleteThat's odd, well...
ReplyDeleteI'll check it out, seems like one of the cartoons ment to appeal to a more female demographic to blend fanbases.
As much as I might dislike the Transformers movie series I would love a shared universe between TMNT, GI Joe and Transformers. This would really be badass and fun to see on the screen.
Like Avengers, just featuring the toys we played with as kids (add MASK to the mix and I'd have to be revived)
It was Hasbro's attempt to compete with Barbie but instead it developed a male fanbase which turned into a cult fanbase. The merchandise focused on girls though so it didn't sell.
ReplyDeleteSupposedly the G.I. Joe movies and Transformers movies are set in the same world. TMNT is questionable, I believe Hasbro only own the toy license. The upcoming Jem And The Holograms movie is rumored to be in the universe though (a Hasbro-verse).
he's 40? WTF talk about aging inma good way. Inetresting he is agood actor but if he makes the elad ona ny of thsoe two S&L will be a goner then?
ReplyDeleteMeh
ReplyDeleteIt was previously announced as an anthology series.Detective Cordell will move on to a new mystery next season,if it gets renewed.
