I am completely burned out on the superhero stuff. See that's why I'm down for whatever, because I still like comic book films in theory but...after Endgame I have to admit there isn't really a lot keeping me in the Marvel Universe as I haven't taken to any of the up and comers in the same way I did the Originals. I like Cap Marvel, I like T'Challa, I like Peter Parker, I like Ant Man but...I only care about them in the context of the current Marvel Universe, not really for themselves. And DC just isn't doing it for me at all, despite liking Wonder Woman and thinking AquaMan was ok. So for me, Jensen getting a superhero there would actually give me a reason to feel somewhat invested again esp as I'm sure he'd put some extra umph into whatever character it was. On the other hand, yes please Guys and Dolls, or some other musical, I don't know many of them not being expert on musicals but I'd like that, esp if he had to dance some. I seem to recall that back in the day it was reported one of the songs he used to sing amongst their friends was by The Outfield, I think was Your Love and that had some HIGH notes and according go Jason Manns he killed it(it was specifically in reference to an 80s theme costume party they had, skinny ties and all LOL, Jason mentioned it on his MySpace page to give an idea of how long ago this was), so I'd actually love to get to hear him sing some more songs in his higher range.

SueB April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 I like that Jensen says he wants to replace one of the Chris' (Pine, Hemsworth, Evans, Pratt). Personally I would love if he took over Capt America. But maybe he simply wants one of the roles that they would ALSO be looking to take. 3 Link to comment
Bobcatkitten April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 I might be the only one - and possibly because I don't watch superhero movies - but I want to see Jensen be a bit more than just an action star. I want some more depth in his acting. 6 Link to comment
Myrelle April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 I'd love to see him in a superhero role. He'd own it like no other, IMO. And those roles can be great stepping stones to other roles, too. I'm sure George Clooney would agree. 6 Link to comment

He his real fame began in ER. I would love to see Jensen in a more character driven movie. I hope he does something he can really sink his dramatic talents into. I have always been more drawn to Jensens sense of drama and comedy than his action/fight scenes. 5 Link to comment

gonzosgirrl April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 (edited) I wouldn't dismiss an action/comic book hero role just because of its genre. There is some pretty great acting to be found, IMO. Hugh Jackman as Wolverine/Logan comes to mind. I, too, would love to see Jensen play against type (as far as Dean goes), a romantic comedy, a serious drama, a musical. I know he would excel in these or anything else he chooses. Just for my own personal taste, please, no historical/period films. My least favorite thing!

Which is funny, because my all time favourite book is Little Women. I guess that's the exception that proves the rule, lol. All that said, Jensen could do a series where he does nothing but sit and read period dramas out loud and I'd watch. He owns me. 3 Link to comment

I personally hope if this is Steve's last Avengers film, then it will be Cap's last Avengers film as well. They only barely managed to do passing the torch in the comics, there's a reason they always bring Steve Rogers back to take on the role. I just don't think it'll work at all in the films, even with Bucky and Sam(the two other Caps) already in them. There's a lot of good acting in actions films depending on the film and they can be period films or fantasy films or contemporary films, If you get a quality one it can open doors for lots of other things.

Myrelle April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 So I haven't watched the whole panel from the Vegas con, but I just saw a part of it where Jensen was flat out asked if he was going to be the next Batman and his answer?-"I don't know. I've never had the opportunity before." But more than that, was the undercurrent of possibility in those words. IDK, but I really think that he is(at least) still in the running for that role. 1 Link to comment

Pondlass1 April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 I’m selfish. I don’t want him in a movie. It takes too long. I want him in a high quality well received tv series written by a genius. I loved the movie American Psycho. I’d like him in something like that. I enjoy clever psychological films that keep you wondering. I don’t know what I’m going to do now. Even the dreadful episodes still gave me my Dean fix. Do DVDs wear out? 7 Link to comment

Don't ask me to explain the difference because I can't. 🙂 There is definitely a difference between the two. When I think of period pieces I picture straight up drama/romance, biopics or a wartime film. Indiana Jones is an action film so I wouldn't count that as a period piece; I would liken it to movies like Captain America: The First Avenger. The entire movie is set in the 40's except for the last 20 or so minutes but it's not considered a period piece because of the content. That's how I see it anyway. *shrugs* 1 Link to comment

Jensen on the big screen but also on the small screen on a weekly basis. Sort of like Viola Davis; How To Get Away With Murder is still ongoing with her as the star but she still manages to make 1 or 2 movies per year in addition to that. 5 Link to comment
MysteryGuest April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 Action movie a la Indiana Jones I wouldn't mind, but I am so done with the superhero genre. I personally don't think we need another Batman movie, but that's just me. I'm betting that Jensen would go for one though. I think it's his thing. I guess we'll see what develops down the road. 3 Link to comment

MysteryGuest April 2, 2019 Share April 2, 2019 (edited) I think some fans tend to be a bit over-sensitive on behalf of the actors on this show. Especially when it comes to how they interact with each other. Clearly, they are all friends, and this was intended as a joke. And it was funny. Just because there is animosity between the different factions of SPN fans, that doesn't translate to the actual relationships these actors have with each other.

Ninamags April 2, 2019 Share April 2, 2019 I was referring to that tweet or whatever it was: I don;t know the full context, but someone asked about guest stars that have gone on to success. Given the complaints many of us have about focus on being on Sam and Dean, this sounds like a very loaded statement. Link to comment
Myrelle April 2, 2019 Share April 2, 2019 So I watched both panels in their entirety for the first time in forever and I'll just say that while there were some great bits in the gold panel, I still found more than half of it to be extremely tedious while the afternoon panel was much, much better, IMO. I did love how openly they discussed the reasons for their decision to end the show in both, though and that was the main reason that I wanted to watch. I thought they both handled the disruption by the autistic girl during the main panel so wonderfully and sensitively. I've never seen the like. And to end this on a shallow note, Jensen in that red shirt was totally mesmerizing to me. I could not peel my eyes away from him during either panel. I mean his SHOULDERS!...Good Lord... 6 Link to comment
