I'm so fukking conflicted here...he is one of my top 3 actors right now, but I really want En Sabah Nur to be played by a black man...very conflicted here.

En Sabah Nur is a GREY man. Any actor could play him. Racial makeup would be null and void.

:comeon:It would be like getting a white man to play a black albino. In most reprentations of him his features are clearly black.

Apocalypse isn't recognizable as someone of ANY race. Yes, he was born IN Africa... but the whole point of his dejection of due to his racial makeup to BEGIN WITH. It shouldn't matter WHICH RACE it would be. As long it is a great acted representation of that character. If this the case, you should be STILL bytching about Tom Hardy playing Bane who was Mexican.

I don't get how he's "playing" Apocalypse. He was barely buff enough to play Bane, and Apocalypse is like 8 feet tall and obviously not remotely human. Just say he's voicing it because they're obviously going to CGI the fukk out of him anyway, ala Brolin and Thanos.

what 8 foot tall actor were you thinking?

You foolish roaches are the most mindless of vermin, it borders on hysterical. You think the day of Apocalypse is a fairytale to be told through an IMAX screen while you devour chocolate giblets and giggle at the explosion of computer generated images, and the quips of bi-curious caucasian actors? You may have grown facial hairs that are representative of maturity in all of the planet's primates, yet neither one of you will ever attain a stature of anything beyond BOYS. You waste minutes of your diminishing life away daydreaming about who should imitate THE FIRST, while the genuine god prepares to literally embrace your souls and eradicate your meaningless presence from existence.

You dudes aren't understanding what I'm saying.

The wording of "playing him" is weird as fukk considering nothing aside from the voice is being used, and even that will have heavy vocal effects. Even if they use motion capture of Tom Hardy it's not as if he's bringing anything special to the role....hell, you could do motion capture for Apocalypse. The end product will look and sound nothing like Tom Hardy, same as Josh Brolin and Thanos.
