I can't picture Bale doing Hanna. Might be a bit old, but I would think Oldman would be the better choice on that list, maybe partly because he'd be pretty much wasted as Nate.
Nolan's got the vibe for Heat, but I'd be worried that he'd re-write the third act and put in some strange twists, or he'd pad it out and make it six hours long.
I came here to say Heat's perfect and imagining a recast is all but impossible.
But your choice of director is kind of a good fit, and moreso Nic Cage as Hanna. I'm not sure if it would be "good", but it would be entertaining as heck.
I'd put Chris Evans as Chris, though.
Guy Pierce as Lt. Hanna

Yul Vasquez as Trejo

Christopher Meloni as Bosko

Cliff Curtis as Casales
Penelope Cruz as Justine
Hayley Atwell as Edey
Sienna Miller as Charlene
Ben Mendelsohn as Van Zan
Russell Crowe or William Hurt as Nate
the rest - parts no big enough for established names
*Ideally you wouldn't want Cruise/Pitt as Vincent/Neil as too Interview with Vampire.
Jason Momoa as Waingro (bigger role than in Heat 95)Interesting. Why would you give Waingro a bigger role this time? What do you think should be changed?
bigger as couldnt think of a more Waingro actor than Momoa and if you have him probably need to expand the role abit.. have him kill a few more ppl created more of a threat for McCauley (also itd be just cool to see more Waingro action!)
sharehave him kill a few more ppl created more of a threat for McCauley (also itd be just cool to see more Waingro action!)Valid observation!

Why would anyone want to waste tome recasting this masterpiece with a bunch of nobodies.
shareThis was THE showdown. Two of the biggest & most respected actors around going at it.
In a possible reboot/remake, The only 2 I can think of in the lead as McCauley & Hanna are DiCaprio & Denzel Washington respectively. Two similar heavyweights going at it
