10 Actors Who Could Play Red Hood In The Batman

Surprisingly, Warner Bros. still hasn't dated the long rumoured Batman movie starring and directed by Ben Affleck. It could be that both parties are waiting to see how well Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice does before committing to anything (Affleck doesn't want another Daredevil after all), but rumours are already pointing to it being an adaptation of the classic "Under the Hood" storyline.

Jensen Ackles

A fan-favourite choice to star as Jason Todd, Jensen Ackles actually as some history with the Red Hood after voicing him in the popular animated movie which adapted the “Under the Hood” storyline. That aside though, and it’s easy to see why so many people want to see him reprise the role on the big screen.

Constantly impressive in Supernatural, a starring turn in a movie feels long overdue for Ackles, as does a comic book adaptation of this scale (he was also wanted by fans for Captain America before Chris Evans landed the part). You need only watch that CW series for proof that he would do great here, and of all the great talents listed in this article, Ackles arguably stands out as the one who it’s easiest to picture going toe to toe in battle with Affleck’s Batman!
