The moment I saw Chris Hemsworth playing George Kirk in the Star Trek remake, I knew he was perfect for Duke.
Channing Tatum doesn't have the presence of a First Sergeant and he comes across as cocky and impulsive, not the mature level headed ground commander that Duke should be. For those of you who also dislike Channing Tatum's portrayal of Duke, who would you like to see if the part was recasted? Would you agree that Chris Hemsworth is the best option or do you have someone better in mind?

Hell, I would even settle for the actor that played the young Capt, James T. Kirk Christopher Pike over Channing Tatum. LOL

Hemsworth would have been alright but I reckon Matt Damon would be perfect for Duke. He still has that all American look and would have brought some presence and gravitas to the role. I am sure though to get good actors you need a good script which might be a good sign for the sequal with the Rock signing on, though he might be just doing it for a decent paycheck.

When I saw Stephen Lang in Avatar the first thing I thought of was Duke.

He's a tad too old, but Kurt Russell would be a great Duke in mah opinion.

It's pretty clear that Tatum is the favorite of one or more studio executives, though, for whatever reason. He keeps getting pushed as a leading man much harder than (IMO) more deserving candidates. I still suspect it's because he's considered a "draw" for female audiences so they're trying to push him into action-y roles so he can get cred with male audiences as well (unsuccessfully thus far). "Stargate"/"Soldier" era Russel would have been great as grizzled first sergeant Duke. Nowadays I'd say beard him up and make him Joseph Colton! Last edited by Jmacq1; 06-29-2011 at 07:23 AM.. |

I always thought of Duke as an older seasoned veteran rather than a snot nosed kid like Channing Tatum. Duke, Flint & Hawk should all be older guys.
