It seems that the whole comic book adaptation is planned as a mix of "Indiana Jones", "Da Vinci Code" and "Ghost". Although not extremely popular, Hawkman is an interesting character which uses archaic weaponry and large artificial wings that allow him to fly. Hawkman also has a partner and romantic interest, Hawkgirl who helps him fight against supervillains. He's an archaeologist, adventurer and the reincarnation of an Ancient Egyptian prince. He also has a mystical cloak capable of teleporting anyone or anything enveloped within it folds. His uniform is made of Nth metal which brings him increased strength, speed, agility, resistance to cold and heat, accelerated healing, heightened senses.... What do you think about it? Who could play him? Who could be his Hawkgirl?
Hawkman is going to be in the upcoming Smallville TV movie, with Stargate SG1's Michael Shanks as Hawkman.
ReplyDeleteYes, I know that, we actually talked about it in the comments section few weeks ago :)
ReplyDeleteAh, I don't remember that. I just discovered it off IMDb.com a couple days ago.
ReplyDeleteyep, I talked about it here with Marko Belsak, he's a big fan of SMALLVILLE, so I like to joke with him about it since I don't get that show :) and I know the big episode is coming in January with the superhero superparty :)
ReplyDeleteJust Make sure the adaptation film has the right person to for the lead role, the right supporting cast, script, director, and the whole works of-course. So, it will be an awesome addition to the rest of the DC Comic films.
ReplyDeleteI think they should find some new actor for the tittle role if they decide to really do this movie.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there will be a Hawkman movie anytime soon. DC is way behind Marvel on that field.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't know much about Hawkman. His history and origins are somewhat convoluted. But I know he's not one of the top DC heroes, even though he has his supporters.
Hawkman movie could be interesting.
