Static Fancast: Dexter Darden

I love watching the Static Shock animated series and think it would be perfect to adapt into a movie. If DC Comics and Warner Bros. ever decide to greenlight a Static Shock movie who do you think should be cast as Static? I think Dexter Darden would make an awesome Virgil Hawkins/Static.

He did an amazing job as Frypan in The Maze Runner movies, he made you see how brave, thoughtful, caring and level headed the character was especially considering all the devastating things that were happening in that series.

In the animated series, Virgil is such a fun character, he's smart and geeky but also very outgoing. As his superhero alter ego Static he uses his intelligence, skills, fun one-liners and his really cool electrical powers to stop crime. I could see Darden as the fun loving hero, he's a good actor and definitely has the look to portray the character.

"The Death Cure" Cast at the Los Angeles Premiere

Yesterday, was the Los Angeles premiere of The Death Cure movie and it looks the cast showed up wearing some interesting clothes.

Although the guys (Ki Hong Lee, Dexter Darden, Dylan O'Brien, Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Will Poulter) look great, I have no clue what designers they are wearing. But I do know that Kaya Scodelario is wearing a beautiful Craven dress and Olgana Paris gold strappy heels. What I find interesting is the lower half of her dress features an array of chickens printed on it.

The guys bring a little bit of fun to the red carpet too with Dexter Darden's entire outfit and Ki Hong Lee and Thomas Brodie-Sangster's print shirts. Will Poulter totally looks relaxed and casual, it's almost like he's wearing fancy pajamas. Dylan O'Brien tends to play it safe with his red carpet looks, he's always in a nice, crisp suit. Well, at least the colors of the suits have been different with each red carpet. But I wish he would take a risk and try something out of his fashion comfort zone. 

Anyway, the cast looks great. I can't wait to see The Death Cure.
