24: LEGACY Actress Anna Diop Cast as Starfire in TITANS

24: Legacy alumna Anna Diop has landed one of the leads, the series-regular role of Starfire, in the new live-action series Titans, from Greg Berlanti, Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, Sarah Schechter and Warner Bros TV.

She joins Australian newcomer Teagan Croft, who was cast as another lead, Raven, in the series that’s slated to premiere in 2018 as part of the inaugural slate of a new DC-branded direct-to-consumer digital service.

In the action-adventure series, Dick Grayson emerges from the shadows to become the leader of a fearless band of new heroes that includes Starfire, Raven and others.

Diop’s Starfire (aka Koriand’r) is an alien princess from a warrior planet who seeks asylum on Earth. A no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners stranger on our world, she has the ability to shoot energy bolts and fly. Searching for her place on Earth, she’ll come into contact with the Titans.

Goldsman, Johns and Berlanti Prods’ Berlanti and Schechter executive produce Titans, from Weed Road Pictures and Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros Television.

Diop co-starred on Fox’s 24: Legacy and was a series regular on the CW’s The Messengers. She also recurred on ABC’s Quantico and OWN’s Greenleaf.

get the kid that voiced him in justice league vs teen titans. he was the kid that was in tropic thunder who ran the heroin farms lol. hes grown up now, I think he was in that shitty from dusk til dawn show.

his name is Brandon soo hoo.

If they're going with the Asian route for Beast Boy, good choice. Thanks also for that info on this kid, yep, he was hilarious in Tropic Thunder.

I kinda know how movie studio and TV head execs think. And I think they had to cast one black main actor since they can't use Cyborg on this show.

I have no problem with a black actress as Starfire. I just wished it was someone prettier or hotter.

I guarantee this is exactly what happened.

This chick is attractive but not "Hollywood" hot, though I'm not sure how much hotness is required to be true to the Starfire character. And if she's going to be orange who knows how that'll look.

Wonder if she'll have a red weave...?

Orange-face, red weave and flashy green contact lenses. What could go wrong?

Matt Bomer for Hal Jordan back in 2013.

Sorry but have you done fantasy casting for Lobo movie?

 

[TheRuthlessOne]

Never heard of Brenton

So I will keep an open mind for now

 

[Organic Damage]

He looks more like a young Bruce Wayne IMO.

 

[Pem123]

If Greg Berlanti is making this show then i will be watching.

he is done such a good job with Arrowverse, i trust this one to be as good.

 

[Dragonlordxxxxx]

Sorry but have you done fantasy casting for Lobo movie?

I didn't make an official casting but Jason Momoa is who I had in mind for Lobo a couple of years ago (before he was cast as Dothraki Aquaman).

 

[Anung Un Rama]

Isn't that all there is to cast?

 

[zapataxiv]

Momoa makes a good Aquaman for his current appearance as the tribalism king of atlantis vs clean-cut loser from that he used to be known as.
I like Jon Hamm as bruce he would be draper by day and kick ass by night.

If Greg Berlanti is making this show then i will be watching.

he is done such a good job with Arrowverse, i trust this one to be as good.

i agree i am just catching up with the flash and it is surprisingly well done.
this is the right approach to doing the comic book universe making these complex tv shows and having cross overs, and then down the road doing a justice league or the vastly superior Justice society movie
