5) Jim Caviezel
Another actor whose name has long been associated with the Dark Knight is Jim Caviezel. While his days of being a film star seem to be relegated to mostly B-grade movies now, his performance as John Reese in Person of Interest has ensured his celebrity amongst the TV audience. With the series now concluded, he should have some free time on his hands to don the Batsuit and take the keys to the Batmobile, right?
Whether Caviezel would want to do it is another story altogether. He seems to cherry pick his roles and doesn’t get bullied into going for something purely for the money or presumed prestige. So, the question begs, would he want to play Batman? Well, his character in Person of Interest was pretty similar to the ol’ Bat, so he’s certainly got some familiarity with the type of persona. And who the hell wouldn’t want to play Batman?!
At the age of 49, though, it’s probable that Caviezel’s turn to play the Bat has passed. Even if he did accept the role, would he want to be a part of The Bold & the Beautiful world of the Arrowverse where everyone looks like a model? We’re not so sure he would.
