OMG.  I would *love* for Jake to play Spidey.  Think about it, y'all - spandex from head to toe, splits, flips... the mind boggles...

Just to give you a bit of an idea...

I'd rather see Heath and Jake play Batman & Robin!

 ;D @ David.

Yeah - it would be fun to hear Jake say something like "Holy sheep shit, Batman!"

But for my money, I'll take the reluctant messiah over the bad-ass and his sidekick any day.  And Jake would so nail that Reluctant Messiah bit.  He already has.  In various and sundry forms.  He would *so* get and convey the irony of it all.  Bring it on, I say.  In spandex.

Never posted before, but I saw on a bunch of other sites that this rumor has been shot down by the writer of the Captain Marvel movie.  He says no one has been considered yet.  That Jake G's name would be on any list but that there's no list. 

Also, why would Jake be Robin?  I don't see him as Heath, or anyone's sidekick.

I wonder if we all would 100% agree that Jake would be Robin and Heath would be Batman?  It seems like the natural fit.  Heath could sort of do his Casanova mocking hauteur ("She's hardly a novice."), and Jake could do a cross between young Jack, Bubble Boy and who?

Cute idea, Heath and Jake as Batman and Robin, but can't you just hear all the BrokeBAT jokes now  :-\

Donnie Darko.

Well they are making THOR, scheduled for release in 2009.  I like the sound of that much better then SHAZAM.    No one has been cast to play the Nordic god.  Well Jake's surname is Scandinavian and doesn't THOR have a more revealing "costume." It's been years since I've read that comic book, but he used to dress up like a viking .
