Hayley Atwell. Matt Betty. Reece Shearsmith. Sean Bean.

I’m in!

They had me at Matt Berry, everything else is icing on the cake. I'd settle for Matt doing all the voices after having seen the excellent Toast of London.

Matt is great but him voicing Rogue would be odd Plus Rogue surely sounds like a Yank.

Matt would probably voice one of the two traders you see popping up from time to time, the chaps in the hazard suits with the bowler hats.

And yes haha, it would have to be scenery chewing over the top American, it was a product of that era after all.

Matt Berry can do a Yank. Haven't you heard his Jackie Daytona?

Caught the news about this yesterday, sounds excellent to me

bring it on

Hoping it ends up more Dredd than Judge Dredd. Cautiously happy

Hah... Alice Lowe is out of Hoorible Histories, which I am currently binging with my daughter... If its live action that might be a bit weird

That's a great cast list, something to look forward to next year.

I’m hoping it’s oddly neutral in terms of fandom nature will make for a good movie.

What do I mean by oddly neutral? Rogue’s initial story is super quick to tell. Without picking through my 2000ad Ultimate Collection to confirm, I’m fairly sure the origin was set out in like, 8 to 16 pages.

And in its own peculiar way? It’s an Everyman type story. Sole survivor, just trying to complete his mission.

So one doesn’t need to be ankle, knee, hip, elbow, shoulders or top of your bonce deep in 2000ad lore to appreciate it. It doesn’t require a whole lot of exposition, particularly as whilst the background was expanded upon, Rogue himself remained largely unchanged during its run,

It’s very accessible. That’s probably explaining it in the fewest words.
