Who should have played Cobra Commander.

[delta]

O.K so who do you guys pic?
I think the guy they picked would make a better Billy (Cobra Commander Jr.).

Ya'll are gonna call me crazy, but I'd say Alice Cooper (he has a thing for snakes). They could get a body actor with a mask to do the acting, but use Coopers voice. Since the guy who did the cartoon voice is dead I'd go with him.

Listen to him here before you say coopers all wrong. He sounds just like him to me http://youtube.com/watch?v=2Ta9KMLpiHM

Heard that

[Loki41872]

Ed Norton.

Watch the parts of "Fight Club" when he is Tyler Durden.
Watch "American History X".

He could have been a great Cobra Commander.

Thats kinda snakeeyes thing isint it? The whole disfigurement thing i mean. Almost seems more like CC should just get off on wearing a mask, not that he needs one. Seems like CC is more just a parinoid, delusional guy. Like he thinks he needs the mask, but he really dosen't NEED it.

He'd be good.
The dude can play Jesus, and Bobby Peru, and sell them both.

Gary Oldman...But I would cast him as the shark from Jaws too. ;)

[Shin-Gouki]

Under the hood/mask? Robin Williams

[Prince of Fire & Thunder]

Hearing people prejudge this without seeing it just makes me want him to nail the role all the more.

Gary Oldman & Willam DeFoe are too old. CC in this script is within a few years of Duke & The Baroness.

Yeah, that guy can play any character and make it believable.

There is nothing more that I would like to see than the guy "nail the role", but I do have my doubts about the guy. It's just a hypothetical question to begin with.

As far as the script goes. Well I haven't read it. I'm basing My decision on what I know, and have known about the character Cobra Commander for years. Not on a script none of us (or few of us) has read.

[Duke]

with a different script someone Tim Roth or Williem Dafoe would have been perfect, with what I have seen from this script I would vote for Cillian Murphy from Batman Begins

[Steel]

I always thought Tim Roth or Kevin Spacey.

[Cavbeast]

honestly I never gave it much thought as to who would play CC in a live action movie. Even reading the dialogue in the comicbooks I always had the cartoon voice in my head.

[GI abe444]

Gary Oldman ! I think he just fits the bill.

[Omegawrath]

Tim Roth.

Of course with the new younger take, maybe the guy they got will surprise us.

*beating a dead horse*
Agreed about the cartoon voice, but that guys dead. Alice cooper dose that kind of voice, and it sounds pretty close to me

[COBRACOLLECTOR]

Gary Busey !!!! lol
