DC Media: TV Shows, Animated Movies and Video Games

How can Netflix find great child actors but CW can't?

To be fair I did forget about child labor laws. A lot of these CW shows are like 20 episodes. Probably too much for kid
But then again Tyler Perry , Disney, and nick never run of children to find lol

Yeah, but they don't have to also spend a bunch of money on special effects. You ever seen the special effects for The Thundermans or Henry Danger? They're clearly budgeting and spending money elsewhere. Probably on the kids.

Yeah, with these characters i think he could done a good job, but i wouldn't want a Flash show with him.

I agree. The more Flash Vol2, I read the more annoyed I am at his handling on the show. Wally's the last character you should have zero idea what to do with. Also, low key annoyed they ditched Linda in favor of Artemis but at least it was better than the tv show trying to pair Barry and Linda.

Kinda wierd.


I know there are going for this pose, but it didn't translate well to live action.

Wait, that's official?? I saw it on Tumblr and I thought it was fan art. I could have the sworn the actor looked older in some of the pics they used to announce his casting.

I seem to remember a while back that there WAS a spin-off of YJ coming, is that still happening or did it die with DCU? Kinda odd how we haven’t gotten any news about YJ S4 although I suppose they’re saving it for Fandom

I haven't heard anything about it.

child actors require a parent on set all the time
they can work limited hours
limits on what they can and cant do. its easier to use adults

Yeah, a lot goes on behind the scenes which we aren't privy to. Didn't Ruby Rose quit her role because she couldn't go through the grueling schedule after surgery? The child actor for young Barry Allen also died of an overdose at 16.

The impulse actor looks 10 years too old for the role and the pose just amplifies that. It was made for a kid.

Agree. Especially the facial expression, it's too weird. Everytime I look at that photo it reminded me to the porn faces that Greg Land draws and it makes the photo even more disturbing lmao.

[king of hybrids]

Isn’t CW fairly infamous for working its shows on a pretty gruelling schedule?

[Vakanai]

Going to agree with the consensus - he looks too old for that pose and facial expression to really work, and also that mask looks photoshopped on and kind of makes it weirder.

That said a bad poster doesn't equal a bad performance and I'm willing to give him a chance.

What kind of porn does he draw? I usually read more hentai manga stuff myself.

He doesn't really draw porn, but used to trace the faces of porn actress into his drawings.

[Johnrevenge]

He doesn't really draw porn, but used to trace the faces of porn actress into his drawings.

Basically this. Almost all the women Greg Land draws has orgasmic faces in almost every panel.

Oh...that's kind of a disappointing tease isn't it? Gonna go all the way to tracing recognizable porn stars and then quite before getting to the main action.

Basically this. Almost all the women Greg Land draws has orgasmic faces in almost every panel.

That is just really, very weird. Like, why?

[Shimbo]

He's had that...practice and reputation for a while but I don't think he ALWAYS did it haha. I don't remember his Dixon BoP stuff being like that so it's something he developed with time.

[DarkViKing]

Ah, Greg Land...a name i havent heard in a while...i might need to check out the Tumblr page dedicated to his "work" XD...always entertaining.
I didnt thought i would ever hear his name in relation to anything CW related however.XD

[HandofPrometheus]

He is too old for this role.

His work with Dixon in Nightwing was good too.

[Frontier]

He is too old for this role.

I don't think they were ever going to get someone that young to play him in live-action, so I've made my peace with it.
