Batman 66 fantasy casting for 66 customs

[fallensaviour]

Just thought of a couple more;
Errol Flynn as the cavalier. Type casting I know.
Michael Caine as Hugo strange
Kirk Douglas or James dean as Zsasz. (This character might be too dark for 66 bats)
Dean Martin would have no other choice but to play a falcone or Maronni part.
Steve McQueen as Oliver queen/ green arrow
Paul Newman or Robert Redford as aquaman

[Golddragon71]

Ricardo Montalban as Ra's Al Ghul (Played in the same vein as his role of Kahn Noonian Singh in Star Trek he would be outstanding.)

Love McQueen as GA, I keep thinking Lloyd Bridges for Aquaman, tho. Typecasting again.
I keep picturing Douglas and Burt Lancaster doing something together on the show.

Lee Marvin as two Face would have been great.
Karloff as The First Clayface (Basil Karlo) with all the acting and fake identities
would have been perfect, but it might have been too much like False Face's episodes....

I also would have liked to see Cat-Man make an apperance, and the start could have been
the "new hero in town turns out to be the new villain in town) storyline...Lyle Waggner
could have done it and then we would have seen ( more than we have) at his turn playing
both a heroic lead and villain.

Since it was also end of the atomic age/ silver age, I would have also liked to see
* Dr. Double X
* the Planet Master
* Firely
*The Terrible Trio

Dr. Double-X is a fun idea, & jerry Lewis could do it well, sort of a riff on his dual Nutty Professor.

What about some of the Rat Pack as the Terrible Trio, or Lancaster,Douglas, and Marvin--real tough guys as campy animal mascots? It's so Batman66.

To me, barring Cary Grant, I still like Eastwood or even Paul Newman as Two-Face--handsome guys who played rebels.

[thunderbolt]

and I am planning Lyle Talbot reprising his Lex Luthor for the show eventually. J. Carrol Naish should be showing up any day now.

[Relic]

Just my opinion but I always thought Raquel Welch as Poison Ivy would be awesome.

[thunderbolt]

she'd have been good, but for me its Ann-Margaret.

[C.H.O.A.M.]

love this thread!
is there a master list? with headshots?
Maybe Raquel Welch as Batwoman?
Annette Funicello as Talia?

[thunderbolt]

howsabout Robert Lowery or Lewis Wilson appearing as the Earth 2 Batman? Be a great nod to the serials that inspired the show.

[ZombieJimC]

I dont have any names to add to this list. Just wanted to say I really like this thread!!

[fallensaviour]

William Shatner or Jack lord as Hal Jordan Green lantern....
Sidney Poitier as cyborg!!!

[Rick Hodge]

Figures. I suggest Robert Conrad as Deadshot for a custom action figure thread, and Hollywood decides on Will Smith for Suicide Squad (to be honest though, I don't think it's that bad in this case)

[jwyblejr]

I still need a gig for Jerry Lewis. Lyle as Catman is good.

Maybe as Jason Woodrue? I mean if we have Poison Ivy,we've got to have Floronic Man.

William Shatner or Jack lord as Hal Jordan Green lantern....
Sidney Poitier as cyborg!!!

Like Shat for GL. Mattel did it so why not?
