To be blunt, because Russell Crowe probably wouldn't be caught dead anywhere near a G.I. Joe movie. He's a "prestige" actor now.
Clive Owen, on the other hand, made "Shoot 'Em Up" not all that long ago. ;) One other thing about Serpentor and charisma though: He doesn't have to be the end-all and be-all of charisma...he just has to look that way compared to the rest of the cast.... |

Rock in a JOE film = Hell yes
As Serpentor = Hell no.

Firstly The rock oozes charisma. he gets people on their feet. In any case, based on what I've read in the prequel novel and the novelization, serpentor seems to be the ultimate goal. Cobra is out to create the ultimate soldier. That is exactly what Serpentor is meant to be. I think you need to dump the idea that this will look like serpentor. forget the cape. forget the snake themed jumpsuit. we might get a "this I command" but that's it. I think we've learned by now that this will look nothing like the serpentor we know. I can see destro locating mindbender and created serpentor by use of nano machines and brainwashing the best viper candidate. The goal of course o kill cobra commander and regain MARS.

Gerald Butler would be a good "stand-in" for Crowe.

I can also see them using extensive enterprises as a dummy corp. in order to create the MASS device and use the tax payer dollar to do so. this would allow for the introduction of the crimson twins and in turn the crimson guard. The stolen accelerator suit worn by duke could be used as the basis for a BAT.

The Rock has a friendly charisma, he gets you pumped, he gets you excited. But does he motivate you to exceed? Does he get you ready to rick your life? There's a leadership charisma, which I don't think the Rock has. Hell, Hitler had it. Looking at the guy, who would follow that? But he had a charisma that got people to follow him. All dictators and even non-dictator military leaders have it. Any revolutionary has it. If the Rock got out in front of people and said "let's attack that fortified bunker" would people follow? I know I wouldn't. If the Rock got out in front of people and said "let's go grab some beers" would people follow? Hell ya.

The People demand it! he would be great, he's already being tapped to play Black Adam in the Captain Marvel movie so why not another great villain?
