He's good as Shadow, i don't wanna imply he's bad at acting, but nothing i've seen from him makes him a particularly compelling choice when you have people like Sterling K. Brown, Trevante Rhodes, Michael B. Jordan (who Warner Bros. has a close relationship with and his production company) who have all thrown their hat in the ring at some point in time; John is the black holy grail of superhero roles. I think the only choice that would be weaker (for me personally) would be if they cast Tyrese.
