this is like the first movie that I\’ve heard about Garrett screentesting for recently so I don\’t understand that one person\’s comment about him screentesting for everything..

obviously I like Hedlund a lot but I\’m not sure if he\’s right for this part either. However I don\’t think it\’s fair to judge him mainly on tron:legacy since he really wasn\’t given much to work with there. His character basically had one-liners the entire time.

Hayden Christensen

Hayden Christensen needs this, he needs a break from Darth Vadar, plus Hayden Christensen is a terrific actor.

I\’m skeptical with some of the names. If this could be the start of another series, why would they consider guys near Damon\’s age, it doesn\’t make sense from a lead standpoint.

And RJ is an example of people talking trash w/out knowing the facts first. Hedlund who is known to be choosy with roles and according to RJ doesn\’t \’land anything\’ was handpicked by Francis Ford Coppola and Walter Salles to star in an iconic American classic. He was also wanted for Captain America which he turned down as well as other blockbuster films (which he was right to turn down as they proved to be on questionable quality).

I hope Garret Hedlund gets the gig. Him or Kitsch.

I hope it goes to Hedlund so he can suck in yet another never should\’ve been revived franchise and then maybe Hollywood will stop putting him on the short list for every action film. He\’s turning into the male Blake Lively in how he screen tests for everything, but doesn\’t seem able to land anything.

So you want to comment about Garrett Hedlund and you\’ve only seen him in Tron Legacy? Dude, make some research please, you bloggers are embarassing because of the total lack of information about what you\’re talking. Better luck next time and try to improve.

Joel Edgerton has been pretty much the right choice all along. I think Anthony Mackie would also be great but it appears as they are going in the white direction.

Garrett Hedlund is going to shock the hell out of everyone with his performance in On the Road and then all you bloggers who keep doubting him will have to eat your words. Like Stelios said, stop using Tron Legacy as your only barometer of his acting abilities and do a little research.

It\’s easy to jump on a bandwagon and claim he\’s not going to do a good job or say he\’s just being hyped like he\’s the next Sam Worthington, but seriously, just look at the reviews for Country Strong – across the board praise for his performance. And then go see On the Road when that comes out – he\’s been preparing for that role for three years and so far one still has been released and that one picture has more fearlessness and power in it than anything I can think of.

When has Taylor Kitsch proved his acting? He\’s in a Battleship movie and Wolverine for Christ\’s sake. Shia LaBeouf doesn\’t want it. He has enough franchises going.
Matt Damon shouldn\’t be gung ho in giving this sucker up. He\’s not profitable outside of this series. The Adjustment Bureau is a clunker.

I can\’t spell a damn. I meant to say that the character Sam Flynn was saved by a girl I don\’t know how many times in the movie… and that certainly doesn\’t help to like or sympathize with the character from a male lead standpoint.

I wasn\’t a fan of Hedlund when the Captain America casting debate started but then I watched him in Friday Night Lights and playing a mean mofo in Death Sentence. The kid can act.

Tron Legay wasn\’t what anyone expected so judging him solely in that role is lame. From what I read, filming in the suit was a nightmare (if actors weren\’t able to sit properly, imagine tryinig to move in it?)

Then, Hedlund got stuck with a character that was underdeveloped (C\’mon he ends up being a girl how many times? and had some $hitty lines to deliver. He was kick a$$ in the actions sequenes.

Plus, the fact that Marvel continues to want him considered for some of their lead roles is pretty damn significant, they don\’t go for stickfigures.

You mentioned that Hedlund concerned you a little because he hasn\’t proven his acting with Tron Legacy, & I agree to a point there, because it was all visuals, had minimal dialog, & had a lot of stunt work. However, go check out Death Sentence from \’07 with Kevin Bacon, & watch his portrayal of Billy Darley, a thug with a tortured past & come back here & say that again. Plus, he really showed his acting abilities in Country Strong, while it may not have been a critic\’s darling, it did show his talent in acting, not just singing. I think the other 3 actors are good too, but Hedlund is a whole lot better than you think.

This never-ending drip of names is like Chinese water torture.

Just put the thing out so I can hate on it already.
