Who SHOULD have been casted as Terry Bogard?


I was not very pleased with the casting of Terry Bogard for the KOF movie, and after seeing the behind the scenes footage, I am beyond PISSED that they have completely screwed up his characters (I'm also upset about Kyo and Mai...shudders) but Terry Bogard....a CIA agent?!? And from the footage he was completely getting his ass kicked. The vest sucked and worse....no hat?! WTF!! Terry "Hungry Wolf" Bogard has been one of my favorite video game character since the first Fatal Fury game, and the Terry Bogard of this live-action KOF is NO Hungry Wolf!!

Now that I've got that out of my system....who do you guys think they SHOULD have casted as Terry Bogard?

Cam Gigandet. He wasn't half bad as Ryan McCarthy in "Never Back Down."

But wait, if Cam is supposed to be Terry, then the movie would have been way worse bc Sean Faris is Kyo (see NBD for the 2's fight against each other).

Unless, one of these guys jumps in for the role of Kyo:

- Jon Foo (you may have known him as Jin in the Tekken movie and Ryu in "Street Fighter Legacy" short film, but I think he would have done a better job playing the role of the Prince of Flames)
- Shun Oguri (of "Detective Conan" live action series fame)
- Jyoji Shibue (Tuxedo Mask from the "Sailor Moon" live action series)

FYI, I still acknowledge the Lone Wolf as the prime King of Fighters b4 the Flame Prince came around and became the heir to the throne.

I'm with you.... the cast really sucks.

Even though he doesn't know how to fight (as far as I know), I'd cast Bradley Cooper as Terry Bogard... he looks exactly like Terry in Fatal Fury 2 and Faal Fury Special.

And I'd consider Dolph Lundgren for the role of Rugal

Good choice. ;)

Mine would be:

Terry Bogard - Travis Van Winkle, with long hair
Andy Bogard - Zach Roerig, with long hair also
Joe Higashi - Tiger Sheu
Geese Howard - Daniel Bernhardt, with blonde hair
Billy Kane - Thor Knai
Michael Max - Reggie Pierre
Richard Meyer - Joey Ansah, with wig and mustache
Raiden - Big Show
Duck King - Aaron Toney
Hwa Jai - Arnold Chon
Jeff Bogard - Loren Avedon with mustache
Young Geese Howard - Jake Strickland
Tung Fu Rue - Henry O

Jason Chambers, an actual professional fighter and host of "Human Weapon"

OR

Christian Howard (Ken in Street Fighter Legacy)

Oh my dear heavens, Christian Howard would've been the best Terry Bogard. In my opinion. Although a bag of dog treats would've been a more pleasing substitute for David Leitch in this movie. I almost projectile vomited when he came on screen being called "Mr. Bogard." Shameful.

TAYLOR KITSCH!

It would be Josh Holloway, Justin Chambers, Geoff Stults or Mike Pyle for Terry.

This might sound quite stupid, but if I were in charge of a KOF based flick, I would take the risk to find someone who actually looks like the character and ALSO happens to be a fan of the games. I know, it would be hard as hell; but among the millions of human beings living in the world, there might be at least one person who's a Terry fan and actually looks like him. That way he would be confident in playing the character.

The same goes for characters like Mai; maybe not a lady fan of the series, but someone who is aware of the similarities he/she has with the character.

Like in this case:

There can be someone who looks at least slightly like that.

Anyway, it was rather dumb, but it was still my OP.
