IESB reported this shortly after the Downey Studios visit... http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option...4826&Itemid=99
My take is that he will indeed be playing non other than Flint, he is a major character gone unrecognized thus far...not even being mentioned by the studio once. Fraser could definitely pull him off and would make me even happier as a fan to have him aboard to play one of my favorite characters. My spin though, on this take, is that Fraser stated in an interview not long ago that he would be riding a three wheeled motorcycle - last time I checked - one of those so called motorcycles was found on the Bethlehem set of Transformers 2, hmmm?
Goldner has stated in interviews many times that the studio was gonna release many easter eggs for this movie and my hunch is that Wayans will be playing Stalker. Goldner stated from the beginning that the most important facts taken from the studio was how close the character matching would be for this film - that being said - I will throw a long shot that Heavy-Duty is Roadblock also. |

At any rate, I'm curious to see if Frasier is Gung-Ho, how far is he going to go to look like him. Argh... the still pictures are killing me, I wanna see a trailer soon! | |
