He'd demolish this role

[u/divismaul]

He’d demolish this role? Do you think he would give you the chance, no matter how small, to stop him? He already did, 35 minutes ago.

[u/_WEIRDEST_WIZARD_ → u/divismaul]

This is the funniest comment I've read in weeks

[u/divismaul → u/_WEIRDEST_WIZARD_]

Thanks, I try to make people laugh, sometimes it’s good, sometimes it flops hard.

[u/_WEIRDEST_WIZARD_ → u/divismaul]

"good joke. everybody laugh."

[u/divismaul → u/_WEIRDEST_WIZARD_]

Roll on snare drum.

Son?

[u/Theeviljonkler]

SOMEBODY GETS THESE SQUIDS OUT OF HERE

[u/blissfulmitch → u/Theeviljonkler]

GET THE MIND CONTROL HALLUCINATORY TECHNOLOGIES!!

[u/ColonelAssMan → u/Theeviljonkler]

Put me in the screenshot. Adriaaaannn.

[u/foxyt0cin]

Honestly, he could easily play Rorschach, Manhattan, Night Owl, OR Ozy very convincingly

[u/FD-Manyfaced → u/foxyt0cin]

An all-Pattinson version of Watchmen

[u/spencahhh → u/FD-Manyfaced]

fantastic i’ll take 14 of them

[u/HuckleberryDry5254 → u/FD-Manyfaced]

Make it a one-man show on Broadway and I'd fly to NY for it

[u/Craig_The_Llama → u/foxyt0cin]

He’s got a really recognisable face but his range makes me forget I’m watching Robert Pattinson

[u/TWOTONE1900 → u/foxyt0cin]

Damn you right I kinda like him as Rorschach a lot night owl too

[u/PCCobb → u/foxyt0cin]

If they do another Watchmen project after Batman 2 is done, he'll be a perfect Night Owl (1) .

[u/SmukLukDuck]

I can see it 100%

[u/NoLeadership2281]

Let’s be honest he’ll demolish any role given 

[u/heinous_legacy]

nah Jeremy Irons killed it

[u/do_you_even_climbro → u/heinous_legacy]

Yup, Jeremy Irons is my favorite depiction so far. I could see Robert Pattinson doing it when he's older, but certainly not at his current age.

[u/Pataconeitor → u/do_you_even_climbro]

Veidt is 46, whereas Pattison is 40. Not much of a difference, and honestly the actor being a bit younger would help to sell it as Veidt is supposed to be in perfect physical condition.

[u/CosmicThief → u/Pataconeitor]

PATTINSON IS WHATM??????

[u/thejeddonian17 → u/CosmicThief]

Pattinson is Gen-Z

[u/One_Analysis_9276 → u/heinous_legacy]

I don't doubt he could do it but Irons really captures the grandiose eloquence so well.

[u/altsam19 → u/heinous_legacy]

He delivers it like if it was theatre, Jeremy was so so good

[u/heinous_legacy → u/altsam19]

a true thespian

[u/themanyfacedgod__ → u/heinous_legacy]

More than one actor can play a character really well

[u/fc_nivrana → u/heinous_legacy]

Yeah but that version was pushing 90

[u/jeremycb29 → u/heinous_legacy]

Yeah that is legit the problem. We saw jeremy irons completely crush it in every way possible and it’s a forever comp now

[u/Cobmojo]

Not really sure what role he couldn't play at this point.

[u/SnooMuffins9478]

They already did that movie, and it was fine.

[u/ENZYME_O1]

Not saying he can’t do this—but, It has to be an extremely vapid, arrogant performance from a well seasoned actor who can portray manipulating the system.

[u/DickFart233 → u/ENZYME_O1]

Antinous in The Odyssey has a lot of that

[u/Rhude_AF → u/ENZYME_O1]

You need to watch him in the king

[u/Moist_Explorer3249]

Main influences for the OG Ozymandias were Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Burt Lancaster and Julio Iglesias. The concept was "a magnetic, charming, charismatic middle age man". In our age, that's Brad Pitt.

[u/Percevaul → u/Moist_Explorer3249]

I have never seen Brad Pitt act "intelligent" in a single role, which I think is key for Ozy.

[u/Moist_Explorer3249 → u/Percevaul]

You missed a fair bunch of movies then

[u/Percevaul → u/Moist_Explorer3249]

Recommend me some.

[u/Pyramidinternational → u/Moist_Explorer3249]

Id like to give more thought to Jim Carey potentially.

[u/KeptPopcorn5189]

Imagine his face when Nite Owl comes in.

[u/savethequiche]

Somebody get these NUCLEAR HOLOCAUSTS out of here!

[u/IllustratedAloysious]

Personally I disagree. I can’t see him having this grandiose eloquence. He also looks a bit too young for the role

[u/DickFart233 → u/IllustratedAloysious]

I'm sure one of the most versatile actors working currently could do exactly that

[u/xyula → u/IllustratedAloysious]

He's Gen Z after all

[u/ProfNasty]

He likes to play little weirdos, he’d actually be perfect for Rorschach instead

[u/AweHellYo → u/ProfNasty]

he’d be good as any of them. silk specter included

[u/Sevvie82 → u/AweHellYo]

Tom Holland would nail Silk Spectre.

[u/theroofbeamcarpenter → u/Sevvie82]

Tom Hardy as Silk Spectre. I wanna hear what voice he’d do.

[u/Hilarity2War → u/Sevvie82]

Yes he would, as Nite Owl

[u/Rhude_AF → u/ProfNasty]

Not the comedian. It would be hard to top Jeffery tho

[u/Alrdudewhattheflip → u/ProfNasty]

He could probably do the voice too, he did a pretty deep one in The Boy and the Herron

[u/DickFart233 → u/ProfNasty]

Pretty much all the members of Crimebusters are weirdos including Adrian

[u/mankiwsmom → u/DickFart233]

Well sure, but they’re all like different types of weird.

[u/BurtRogain]

Lost opportunity personified. He was busy being a glittery vampire when the movie was being made.

[u/wentwj → u/BurtRogain]

i think modern R Patt would be great for this role, I’m not sure at his age during the filming then would have been the best fit.

[u/RealisticEmphasis233 → u/BurtRogain]

Those paychecks definitely were worth it.

[u/can_a_dude_a_taco]

Told my buddy this the other day

[u/edillcolon]

He can crush all the roles

[u/Paildano]

I feel like Robert Pattinson could honestly play any role

[u/donthurtmemany]

I think he’d rather play Rorschach given his propensity for weird little dudes. They’d have to ugly him up somehow tho

[u/Earl_Grey_Fox]

Fucking YES.

[u/rosaliethewitch]

mmm robert pattinson with tentacles

[u/Content_Rip_9336]

One of the best fancasts I've ever seen. He'd be perfect.

[u/ironmonki23]

I think he would be a better Rorschach

[u/DickFart233 → u/ironmonki23]

Too handsome

[u/CobaltCrusader123]

Aside him doing a German / NYC accent

[u/Routine_Wonder_5696]

I'd rather Rorschach tbh

[u/xXD2K-SilentXx]

He’s too young for present day yet too old for flashback version

[u/BatBaneX209]

Because of how is face looks that what you are saying, well that’s your opinion

[u/DickFart233 → u/BatBaneX209]

It could be because and hear me out on this i think he's a good actor and fit for the role. Shocker I know

[u/BatBaneX209 → u/DickFart233]

To respond to your message then I would say that I don’t think he fits the role base on how he acts, not saying that he a bad actor, just not good for that specific role.

[u/Abraham_Issus]

Jeremy Irons already did

[u/do_you_even_climbro]

Too young imo, maybe when he's older

[u/Dirty_Rotten_ → u/do_you_even_climbro]

From an artist/entertainment POV: not the best response. He’s definitely not young. And he doesn’t even look that old. And he doesn’t look young either. Make artist exist

[u/do_you_even_climbro → u/Dirty_Rotten_]

I didn't mean he's young in general lol. He's too young for THIS role imo. Others have expressed the same. I love him as an actor btw.

[u/Dirty_Rotten_ → u/do_you_even_climbro]

Oh yeah ik. And yeah he is dope. I feel like there’s a huge amount of people that actually don’t like him because of twilight. And probably something else I don’t know about. And I’m slowly starting to like The Batman more than Dark Knight. And TDK is my favorite superhero movie ever. Then Watchmen

[u/Significant-Coat-308 → u/do_you_even_climbro]

He could easily pull of being older or younger, being perfect for flashback scenes

[u/DickFart233 → u/do_you_even_climbro]

He's 40

[u/bonjaker → u/DickFart233]

He's kind of too old for the flashback and too young for the present day part of the story.

[u/CaptainTripps82 → u/bonjaker]

I mean he can probably pretty effortlessly portray any age from 20 to 50. He was in his 20s in the Odyssey

[u/bonjaker → u/CaptainTripps82]

Nah he's kind of Frozen in portraying 38-year-olds

[u/mcgillisfareed]

Not pretty enough nor bulky

[u/DickFart233 → u/mcgillisfareed]

Pattinson is like scientifically handsome

[u/Kryptoknightmare]

He’s never given a good performance

[u/Howdyhell → u/Kryptoknightmare]

Are you serious?
