If you have missed the latest update to my first blog post about Captain Future then let me start this one with repeating the good news:

A big budget Captain Future movie has indeed been announced! Christian Alvart, known from Pandorum, has taken on the project and will hopefully make one of my childhood’s dreams come true.

Now it is time to reveal my favourite choice for Ezra Garney (German: Ezella Garnie), the wise intergalactic cop. As you might know, he’s got blue hair – and a blue mustache. It’s pretty much impossible to find an actor with such feats by nature so I tried to remember first who I had in mind when I was young. It was…the good cop from ‘Picket Fences‘, Tom Skerrit. Unfortunately, like Brad Pitt for Captain Future, he is passed the ideal age now and I had to look somewhere else. Then it hit me, I’ve seen Ezra Gurney in another movie and he was a cop there, too. I am thinking about Gary Oldman in Batman Begins.

Put his head into a bucket full of blue paint and within seconds Ezra Garney is reborn. I can’t wait to see him next to Justin Hartley. (Warning: Might not happen)

Next on my list is Joan Randal (German: Joan Landor), the hot blonde at Captain Future’s side. What do you think? Do you agree with Gary Oldman as Ezra or is there someone better? What about Joan? I’ve made my choice but am looking forward to reading your suggestions.
