I like Pine but that's an odd choice.

He's really getting around to all the classic hero roles. Could the Shadow be next?

That'd be great. But I'd be surprised if it happened.

Interesting.

pine was too white, too blonde, and too hetero for the role in 2021

yeh after D&D wraps he'll def have to sign up for multiple Star Trek films if he wants to continue as a lead actor. if paramount still want the kelvin crew that is. id guess perhaps part of the reason hes dropped out of Saint is bc hes going to be doing more star trek for paramount instead, who are probably aiming at getting movie Trek back on track with a marvel type shared universe with the tv shows interacting with the movies again. whereas previously he was done with trek/wouldnt sign up for a 4th due to money. but now maybe hes had to drop his price abit or sign up for multiple films etc idk
