A live action superhero show? It’d never work.
LIGHTS, CAMERA, LIVE ACTION
Rob Graham, email I’m wondering if animated shows Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Marvel’s What If…? and Star Trek: Lower Decks could work as live action shows? The Bad Batch is a decent and solid series and could be done similarly to Orphan Black, with Temuera Morrison playing all the clones. What If…? could be done with the cast of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies returning in their roles, though I’d still like to see Jeffrey Wright as the Watcher in a live action movie or TV series. Star Trek: Lower Decks I’d also love to see done as live action – maybe older versions of the characters could appear in Star Trek: Picard or simply do it as Star Trek’s first live action comedy series?
