DCU diehards to James Gunn: Make Bryan Cranston the new Jim Gordon

There is only one man who could play Commissioner Gordon in the DCU.

James Gunn’s recent announcement of his DCU reboot reassured fans that Batman: The Brave and the Bold. And while it’s currently unknown who will star in this Batman DCU reboot, diehard fans may have just found the perfect actor to take on the role.

Reddit u/Character_Ad_5213 asked the community who could play Gotham City’s police commissioner, Jim Gordon, in Gunn and Safran’s DCU. And why there were names thrown out such as Bryan Cranston.

This suggestion received tons of from fans who agreed to the point where it received its own Breaking Bad. But one argued that Luthor should be played by someone with the same age as Superman.

In the animated adaptation of Batman: The Brave and the Bold, commissioner Gordon wasn’t a main or recurring character in the show, nor did he have any speaking roles. However, his daughter ended up becoming Batgirl in the series. So it will be interesting to see if DC’s live-action version of the 1950s comic would do the same treatment for the character, considering that Gunn wants to focus on the Wayne family.

At the moment a release date for DC’s Batman: The Brave and The Bold has not yet been announced. Nor were any cast for the movie. But fingers crossed that Gunn would consider someone like Cranston to take on the role.
