Who would you NOT choose?

A short while ago, Becky Rock posted:

For those of you who haven't heard, the Russo brothers (of Marvel's Avengers fame) stated at the ComicCon in San Diego in July that they loved BotP as kids and would love to make a live action movie.

And Daniella responded:

This is just a great chance to introduce a whole new generation to BoTP. And we can start guessing who will play our five birdies...Any suggestions???

I couldn't help thinking of all sorts of people who'd be horrible to cast, and I'm sure many of you are the same, so I created this spot for your bad choices!*

Here's a sample of my choices:

ZARK: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Dr. Phil McGraw
KEYOP Shaquille O'Neal

What are your casting choices?

*Please don't choose Trump -- he's automatically a bad choice foe ANYONE!

Boris Johnson then, OK?

This is a difficult one! Where to start?

Ok, I would NOT be a happy camper if they chose Ashton Kucher (mentioned in another post) for Mark/ Jason.

And let’s not have Boris Johnson either if we can help it... Smile

I think Ashton Kucher would be too old anyway.

I agree with EW that basically unknowns would be best - and they need to be believably young. A well known actor could possibly play Chief Anderson.

20 years ago people might have been tempted to choose Tom Cruise as Mark or Jason. Personally I pick him for someone I don't want in this movie!

Ooh, I hadn't thought of him! Well, let's say PM^ Johnson can be used for only one character. (Like the Trumpster, this guy could easily fill every slot!)

For Anderson, I would much prefer someone who kept the "intellectual" look of him on BoTP. I wouldn't want him to turn into a Jack from "24" for example. Maybe, just maybe, Billy Burke with glasses? What do you think?
