James Gunn's DCU is set to bring the Teen Titans to life in a live-action film, as reported by THR. The script for this upcoming movie will be penned by Ana Nogueira, known for her work on 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.' This marks a significant milestone in her screenwriting career.
While the full lineup of characters for the Teen Titans film remains undisclosed, fans are already speculating on potential actors for the roles. Given the youthful nature of the team, it is expected that the cast will feature younger actors, possibly portraying teenage characters.
Among the rumored casting choices circulating online are:
- Blue Beetle - Xolo Maridueña: Maridueña's portrayal of Blue Beetle is highly anticipated, as Gunn confirmed that this character would transition from existing live-action DC projects to the new film.
- Beast Boy - Iñaki Godoy: Fans have suggested Godoy for the role of Beast Boy, citing his energetic performance in Netflix's 'One Piece' as evidence of his suitability for the part.
- Raven - Jenna Ortega: Ortega is a popular choice to play the goth superhero Raven, with her strong acting credentials making her a desirable candidate for the role.
- Robin/Nightwing: The casting for this character remains uncertain, with speculation leaning towards a lesser-known actor to potentially take on the role.
- Starfire: While no specific actor has emerged as a front-runner for Starfire, there is a consensus that the character should be portrayed by a black actress, with names like Kiersey Clemons and Halle Bailey being suggested.
- Cyborg: The role of Cyborg is also up for grabs, with no clear favorite emerging. The character's complex history in recent DC adaptations adds an element of intrigue to the casting process.
Aside from these key characters, the potential inclusion of other Teen Titans members in the film remains uncertain. Gunn's penchant for incorporating unexpected characters into his DCU projects leaves room for various possibilities, including Kid Flash, Wonder Girl, Terra, Aqualad, Arsenal, Bumblebee, and more.
As details continue to unfold, fans eagerly await further announcements regarding the cast and storyline of the Teen Titans live-action film.
