Recasting the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for Today - Part 3

[@nobod2567]

It's official: Giancarlo Esposito is gonna be Baxter stockman for TMNT mutant mayhem, and you predicted it!

[@lightyearpig12]

Baxter: You commit crimes because of your grudge against a giant rat. I commit crimes to flaunt my superior intelligence. We are not the same.

[@Chuck_EL]

I can definitely see Esposito saying that and sounding badass saying it

[@ganumon1984]

My choices for those characters are Ice Cube and Dave Bautista as Bebop & Rocksteady, Donald Glover as Baxter Stockman, Anna Sawai as Karai, and Brianna Hildebrand as Jennika.

[@Broadkill54]

Ew

[@seanmalloy0528]

Could work

[@seanmalloy0528]

@@Broadkill54 For which?

[@FormalFilmsProductions]

I can kind of see Donald Glover doing that.

[@FormalFilmsProductions]

Ice cube and Dave Bautista are who I’ve would’ve picked as well

[@Injusticelord]

Love these picks! My personal choices are: Tom Hardy as Rocksteady Brian Tyree Henry as Bebop Jamie Foxx as Baxter Stockman Mackenzie Davis as Jennika Karen Fukuhara as Karai

[@Chuck_EL]

rocksteady even before his transformation was an imposing man thats why i loved sheamus casted as his hes 6'4" and 260lbs bebob was chubby but imposing too ....i loved his casting i could even see in terms of wrestling budda ray and devon dudley could work too

[@tinothetuna215]

Honestly, if we get an animated movie I’d love to see JB smooth return for bebop. Bebop in the 2012 cartoon was smart, had a unique fighting style, and was an actual threat. But if they wanna go more traditional, I hope he could at least do his funky voice.

[@doctorvanya]

With James Bond being ready for a recast I'd love to hear your thoughts on the next 007. Maybe some other key players too, like M, Q Moneypenny and Felix.

[@georgeeastwood6930]

How about Richard Ayoade as “Q”?

[@doctorvanya]

@@georgeeastwood6930 The problem with someone like Ayoade is that he's better know as a host and panelist rather than an actor. That is to so he's better known for being himself and I tend to find it distracting when someone like that shows up in an otherwise serious film.

[@georgeeastwood6930]

@@doctorvanya Who could YOU imagine supplying James Bond with gadgets then?

[@doctorvanya]

@@georgeeastwood6930 Right now my top choice would be Jo Martin. She did a great job of establishing her version of the Doctor in a short space of time and I think that energy would translate well to Q.

[@georgeeastwood6930]

@@doctorvanya that sounds nice to have a black woman supply 007 with gadgets, I would like you to recast everyone else, including whoever could play bond villains.

[@blink12689]

Giancarlo is good, but I’d love to see Keith David. I think he could bring that energy as well as the acting.

[@Spider-Fan2099]

100% agreed, Giancarlo is a great actor and I definitely wouldn’t mind seeing him as Stockman, but I just think Keith David is perfect for that role. When it comes to his performances, the man always brings his A game.

[@Chuck_EL]

​@@Spider-Fan2099 4:30 he looks and acts like Baxter there

[@alexandrefrauches132]

I like the fancast for Baxter Stockman but I would not want him to become fly man. I would prefer something more like the 2003 cartoon were, everytime he fails to defeat the turtles, he is slowly transformed into a cyborg, which could make him a dark reflection of Donnatello: Both genius inventor, except that one has family that keeps him humble while the other is arrogant which leads him to become machine like his inventions.

[@gechoman44iwantahippo]

I think giving him fly-like technology would be a good compromise.

[@theavenuesshow9922]

I feel like William Jackson Harper would also work for Baxter Comedic chops, is a nerd, and always thinks he the smartest in the room

[@slendyman1386]

Oh yeah, I’ve heard that the Duffer Brothers are going to make a Netflix Death Note live action. So I’m interested to see you fancasting this.

[@mr.knightthedetective7435]

I'd never think anyone would cast Jennika, much less any IDW characters. I can't wait Old Hob casting and I got a perfect actor for him- Jon Bernthal

[@The_LMS]

Bryan we want u to do a green lanterns fancasting i think it'll be pretty fun there are a lot of really interesting characters either heroes or villains and their just really under appreciated these last few years

[@TheMarionick]

“I’ve already casted the main villains” There should be a place in between hell and heaven specifically tailored for you because you don’t consider Bebop and Rocksteady main villains

[@prastarkeepers]

Please do a recast for Star Trek: The Next Generation set in the Kelvin-timeline. Some possibilities are Jessica Chastain as Beverly Crusher, David Tennant as Q, and Allen Leech as Chief O’Brien.

[@ninjat-rex7472]

Please do Slash and Leatherhead next! I wanna see who you'd cast.

[@Cburkh23]

You got Baxter Stockman right for the new movie.

[@milkiassamuel780]

4:02 This is insane because he actually played Baxter Stockman in the newest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem animated movie that literally just came out.

[@andrewmcnamara6305]

I think you should do a recast for a live-action Danny Phantom.

[@theavenuesshow9922]

this ^^

[@AlMoSiCe210]

That's funny that I mouthed Florence Pugh for Jennica RIGHT as you said it! 😅😅

[@Chuck_EL]

I've seen her with Short hair too she favors Jennica alot

[@acinomthecat]

It would be interesting if you casted the FNAF movie (5 OG animatronics, Mike Schmidt, phone guy, William Afton, Henry Emily)

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

You definitely need to cast Lord Dregg and the Triceratons

[@matthewkircher3566]

Bryan you must be from the future because Giancarlo Esposito got casted as the voice for Stockman in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem

[@richardaraujofreitas]

Man those are great choices, had me really wanting another live-action TMNT I'd love to see your picks for a Dragon Ball live-action, I'm confident you could pull it off

[@zanderblankenship3849]

My picks are Brianna Hildebrand as Jennika William Jackson Harper as Baxter Stockman Jordan Peele as Bebop Keegan Michael Key as Rocksteady

[@Chuck_EL]

adam scheer/braun stromann is a great choice and one of his signature moves is a running shoulder block which fits rocksteady's running head butt move he does

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

I think Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key could also work as Bebop and Rocksteady

[@tonycrosby9384]

4:00 He really is going to be Baxter Stockman in Mutant Mayhem!

[@artisticsolarninja]

Bebop should be Don Cheadle for me next up is Leatherhead and he will be voiced by Alfred Molina

[@garveyneal1672]

Great news Bryan Giancarlo Esposito has been cast as Baxter Stockman for Mutant Mayhem!!

[@berniedavis6676]

love the TMNT recastings. these were a fun series of vids. but as you may know, I really want you to recast the Ghostbusters in a video. like maybe have it be a two-part vid with the humans in part one and the ghosts in part two.

I’d love to see a Marvel recasting for today- Phase 4 since the phase is coming to a close

[@connorbeith3232]

If this series comes back, I would love to see the Channel 6 crew casted, as it's an aspect of the franchise that I think could be expanded upon as a dark and corrupt news organization, especially Irma as I always found her adorable.

[@Dragon1813]

I still want to see Narnia

[@megacrashthehedgehog5377]

Honestly, Giancarlo would make for an excellent Baxter Stockman, but I always pictured Chiwetel Ejiofor in the role myself.

If Jennika is getting casted, I’d love to see Aloepex, Angel, Doctor Lilja, and Hob. Maybe even Honeycut since Krang was recast.

[@Chuck_EL]

​@@LuhCremeGod I mentioned he'd be a spot on Raphael

[@maddenboseroy4074]

I never heard of Jennika until now (thanks); and while I would have used your April O'Neil choice Sophia Lillis - as my comments on your previous parts lay out that my own April O'Neil choice would have been Zendaya - I will never complain with your choice of Florence Pugh, having seen her as Yelena Belova in the MCU (and one video on the grapevine of her accidentally dying her hair blue; why'd she lose the blue hair?). As for Karai, I think your choice would work better on the route ROTTMNT (#saveROTTMNT) took with the character's in-universe biography; so I went with Grace Rolek (Steven Universe's bestie/love Connie Maheswaren), who is Zach Callison's age (see my comment on your part 1 for a catch-up) and is Japanese in descent as well.

[@emmettsfabricationshandicr2536]

It'd be cool to cast the Bioshock series, considering Netflix has an adaption in the works.

[@zombeanie4973]

I got an interesting challenge for you. The new Buzz Lightyear movie, Lightyear, is a movie set inside of a movie and since Toy Story is animated that means to Andy that movie is live action. So why don't you try and cast those characters as if the movie was live action during the 90s when the movie released for Andy. So the only difference from your normal videos is that these actors have to be actively acting in the 90s and obviously still look and feel like the characters. Sorry if this is confusing and thanks for reading.

[@jayden__3896]

bro predicted Giancarlo as Stockman

[@williamramos7978]

excellent choice for bebop and rocksteady, for karai, I would go with an actress who is younger, seeking revenge, and a perfect age relationship for leo ( played by xolo mariduena ), and I also want this karai to be splinter's daughter who was tricked and lied to, so for karai I would say, ashley liao as karai. for baxter stockman, I would go with a young baxter stockman who would be a smart genius and just graduated college or something like that, so for baxter stockman I would say, william jackson harper as Baxter stockman.

One TMNT villain I would love see appear in the film/series is the Rat King (fancast: David Tennant). Besides the fact he is capable of controlling rats, including Splinter (forcing the Turtles to fight their own father), depending on the version he can be portray as very powerful threat, like in the IDW, where he is basically a trickester god. That would be something new for the films to explore.

[@Chuck_EL]

I like that especially since he played a similar character in Jessica Jones plus Rat king is a over the top character like Dr Who , which David also played

What about William Jackson Harbour as Stockman. The only thing is that I’m not sure about him pulling off menace or prosthetics but thats just cause I haven’t seen him in roles that required menace or prosthetics. Otherwise he is a great actor who has shown in the good place that he can pull off intelligence and has great comedic timing which could be used to great effect. Personally I love giancarlo but he seems a bit too intimidating like I always picture stockman not being all that intimidating prefly but Giancarlo has that presence where it will be difficult to see him being an underling. Harper on the other hand very much can play off of the fact that he isn’t intimidating as seen in the good place.
