After rumors hit the web of a Danny Phantom live-action movie being made based on the popular Nickelodeon animated series, fans are curious about whether or not there is any truth to them. Here is everything you need to know.
Is a live-action Danny Phantom movie being made?
No, a live-action Danny Phantom movie has not been officially confirmed to be in development as of publishing.
According to a report from a reputed but semi-reliable industry insider and scooper Daniel RPK, a Danny Phantom live-action film is reportedly in development over at Paramount. However, apart from this scoop, nothing is known about who is directing or writing the project and the actor who will play the title character.
Which actors could play Danny Phantom in a live-action movie?
Several actors can take on the role of Danny Phantom in a live-action movie such as Asher Angel, Jack Dylan Grazer, and Walker Scobell.
Asher Angel is a solid pick for the role of Danny Phantom in the live-action movie as through his work in the DCEU’s Shazam films, he has portrayed a character with a personality that is remarkably similar to Danny Phantom’s, making him a strong candidate for the role.
Jack Dylan Grazer, who was Angel’s co-star from the Shazam films and also a young Eddie Kaspbrak in the It films is another good candidate to play a live-action Danny Phantom. His performances in those films showed that he is a good fit for the kind-hearted and compassionate personality exhibited by Danny Phantom in the animated series.
Walker Scobell, a rising star thanks to his work in The Adam Project and the recent Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, is also a good pick for the part of Danny Phantom as he has already shown plenty of heroics in both of those roles.
