I read an interesting rumour again. The guy to play Vader suited up in EpIII is said to possibly none other than the hulk: Lou Ferrigno. I guess Georgio will have to learn sign language now.

I hope this is a false rumor, what is wrong with Hayden doing it

I say it should be Hayden

lol, everyone knows damn wel it should be hayden, why the hell would they change person when anakin wears suit???? just a rumor though, but if GL really does that, i'll rip off his head and stuff it up his ass.

Hayden's not big enough and hasn't got the right posture for the suited up Vader.

lol...good point.

THe only point really. For sure Hayden will not play the fully suited up Vader. It requiers certain features like posture, size and a style of walking.

Lou Ferrigno was the original Incredible Hulk,for those who are new to the idea. But for him to play the suited up Vader? I would think he is too big for the suit just as some are saying Hayden is too small! BUt I really hope they don't go too overboard in casting this!

Don't worry.

I was wodnering though, why not make him entirely digital?

Now there is an interesting thought!

It would work too. Stormtroopers look good. Clone troopers look good, so why not Vader. No organic texture to make and in AOTC the robes of the Kaminoans for the first time looked realistic.

I hope not though.

We need the true texture and realism of Vader.

yea

With the hulk then...?

only GL will know...

The Hulk looks to cartoony.

That's not the hulk I meant.

I'm personally hoping David Prowse gets to finish off his role as the man behind the mask. Plus, for him the suit is a perfect fit.

He got ill, I don't think he'll be able to do it anymore.

So if Dave Prowse is too ill to return as the man behind the mask(so to speak),who else should get a try at it?I still stand by my disbelief at Lou Ferrigno being the "new Vader" simply because he is too muscular to fit in the suit! Could be wrong, you never know................

who knows...who cares?

Obviously all the rest of us on this discussion do!

indeed

the movie "hulk" is coming out.

Not the topic here.

That version has nothing to do with Lou Ferrigno---the original Hulk- who is apparently up for the role of the man inside the Vader suit.

why get a new man for the Vader Suit...I thought they were just gonna have Hayden put on some muscle?

No one seems to have considered that option yet!

lol, hayden might get offended when hes not the one in vader suit

Yeah, I know. I read how he is really looking forward to putting the helment on!

But he's not big enough.

Maybe he will be when filming on III starts. Otherwise I just don't know....

Err..... should I answer that?

I think they ought to stick with Hayden, and let him wear the body armour and the face helment. He's always wanted to do that, ever since he was cast in the last installment. Let him live his dream, I say.

hayden is not built enough to be the terror of the galaxy

Indeed.

Hayden said in a star wars magazine that he couldn't wait untill episode III because he wanted to wear the Darth Vader costume."I can't wait to put on the dark helmet" said Hayden. So i think he will play vader.

I concur for the same reasons listed above. Hayden should get this chance of a lifetime.

I still don't think he's big enough. David Prowse is taller than 6 foot isn't he?

Ah the endless debate continues....

Why yes, yes it does.

Most excellent. Now, does anyone know any facts about the casting(or re-casting) of Vader? Will it be Hayden, Prowse, or another??

Oh we will probably see him getting the suit fitted. No doubts there. We probably won't see a fully suited up and walking Vader played by Hayden.

Which would suck if Queeq is right...

Okay. So what if they used an unidentified actor/stuntman for the 'Vader' scenes at the end of the movie? Someone WE the paying public would never know about?

probably...and would we care then????...no

Exactly my point!

Indeed. We need a suited up Vader that LOOKS good.

Yeah! If they're going to do something radical with the whole Vader thing, let's hope they get it right!

Radical... hmmm, I hope not.

You can never tell with these things.

hm...

So you think they should just leave well enough alone?

that'll leave us frustrated

Come on people, let the boy wear the mask! Hayden Christensen has earned the right and privilege to wear the Vader apparatus! Who's with me here!

hayden

queeq, where did you hear this rumor?? Citations please???

from everything I've seen, they made a very organized effort to make a suit strictly for hayden, and no one else.

It is hayden that is wearing the suit in episode3 he begged so george lucas let him be vader and I think thats good.

this is such an old topic i dont know why i started to respond. it has already clearly bee proven in the DVD doc

^^^Yeah, it shows Hayden putting on the suit and being filmed in it.

Also, there was that BTH pic (#44) that showed the Vader helmet being fitted to a cast of Hayden's head.

omg is this thread old

i agree, lets burn it and piss on the ashes and then drink some beer and watch football...

Yeah it's Lou Ferrigno!!!!! He fits perfectly in the vader suit

hey thats me!

Wait, hold up! We see Hayden himself get into the costume, not to mention he begged and pleaded and they were nice enough to build him a suit that fitted him. Whats changed??

stunrun hesaid that at comic con when him and rick maccaulm were interviewed but it is him in the suit you are correct on the dvd .

I agree Moonwalker. Grey Cup Sunday ,go BC Lions go.

please close

yeah, didn't realize that at first. apparently someone decided to revive it.

muahahahahahhahha

http://img91.exs.cx/img91/7430/louvader.jpg

so we're all in agreeance that we SAW Hayden with the suit on? They made it especially for him, hes doing it, end of discussion, close the thread.

I too think Hayden should do it .

he IS doing it....everyone refer to t your bonus DVD of the OT box set....CLOSE PLEASE

Hee Heeee i love how people dont read the date before responding. what abunch of losers!

you might need to bring that 6"heel over here too LF! lol
