Jaden Smith is officially playing a DC character

Jaden Smith is playing Static Shock.

We all knew this would happen.

@static_shock Think you're interested in hearing this.

Not sure if true, but i wouldnt mind it :/

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah, sure why not. I liked the Karate Kid reboot.

That's not an official statement, that's some actor spreading a rumor. Click bait.

Nah.

not much of an official announcement coming from a different actor who really shouldn't know anything about this

as far as I can tell he was just referring to the rumor from a while ago

Looks like Deadshot and Mooney hooked him up.

It happened @rogueshadow... it finally happened

heinous f*ckery most foul

I had faith in suicide and BvS , this drops the faith like jesus coming back as a satanist

This will have nothing to do with the DCU, it's going to be an online live action TV show

We all knew they would. I was hoping his dumb*ss would stick to rapping (which he also sucks at by the way)

RIP DC cinematic universe...

@vivide: Now, there's an interesting thought: if Satan is an invention of Christian theology, could Satan-worship be considered a denomination of Christianity? And/or, by believing in Hell with two "L"s, Jon Lovitz in a red suit with a pitchfork, and eternal damnation, do Christians give validity to Satan-worshippers' ideas? Hmm. Oh, well. I'm off to play Dungeons & Dragons and listen to some old Black Sabbath.

YAAAAYYYY Static Shock!

Boooo Jaden!

I only have seen him in Karate Kid and I liked the movie. Is he really that bad?

IT's an online Live Action Tv show produced by some website. It will not be connected to the DCU

I don't really know too much about Static Shock, but Jaden Smith is one weird kid....I mean, I'm not one to judge but kid is waaay out there

In real life his an idiot and he was terrible in After Earth which was pretty much a Birthday gift from Will.

N-n-n-n-n-nepotism.

I'll judge him, he's Kanye West but without the talent.... and with a lower IQ

It's like nobody pays attention anymore....

STATIC IS NOT OWNED BY DC

EXCLUSIVE: Milestone Media rises again. Hudlin, Cowan and Dingle will revive company with eye toward characters of color - The Washington Post

I don't really care haha. It would just be like a web series.

But does WB own them?

which edition of d&d?

@vivide: My friends love 5th, but I'm all about 3.5.

Hahahhahha DC just got f*cked in the ass!!

@ultrastarkiller: His dad obviously did it *looks at After Earth* JK :P

Ya know what... he can actually look the part

Nope, they don't.

Hopefully not true.

And this is why I would have preferred an animated series.

Alright! Got some questionable casting? Time to blindly hate DC and say their movies will fail!!

What's that? It's not tied to the DCCU in any way? I don't care! The DCCU will fail!

nope not falling for this joke

Of course! You know, because Jaden Smith is the ONLY young black actor in Hollywood... it's not like he can't act or anything!

for some reason, i can't be mad at this. I'm just glad that static is getting a movie and hopefully a new comic book.

LOL I doubt DC would ever get his own movie. He doesn't even have his own comic run anymore,when he did look how that went! If Static is getting anything it'll be on Tv lmao. Static is the last character they care about lol.It was only been confirmed by some actor actually not confirmed at all

Milestone already have the rights back.. why blame DC? LOL!

I was hoping this wouldn't happen. But since I don't care about Static, I'm not all the bothered.

Because blaming DC is like blaming Obama, all the cool kids do it.

Truer words... lol

As for Smith, let's wait until it is officially announced first. Just because some guy said it, doesn't mean it's true.

*looks up the definition of the word "officially"*

Somebody in charge of casting at DC is a big Marvel fan.
