Our pick: O’Shea Jackson Jr.

It’s currently unknown if Titans will feature its own version of Vic Stone (Cyborg) since Justice League already has Ray Fisher in the role. Considering the character’s history and close ties to the team, however, we think it’d be rather stupid not to include him.

Having already made a name for himself in Straight Outta Compton, portraying his old man Ice Cube, O’Shea Jackson Jr. has the look, humor, and stature to pull off Cyborg. Also, at 26, he’s the right age to hold this role for more than a few years.

That said, O’Shea is dabbling in the big leagues now, with a purported appearance in 2019’s Godzilla: King of Monsters, and he still has his music career under the moniker of OMG. With so much else going on, would he want to take on the pressure of being a TV actor as well? Only he knows the answer to that question.
