Brian Coltrane Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 That's a valid idea as well. But last I heard, John wasn't enthused about this movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelerF150 Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Whoever mentiioned Toby Keith has the right idea I think. He's definitely got the speaking voice and the singing voice for it. Not to mention he has a slight connection to the old show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaximRecoil Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 That's a valid idea as well. But last I heard, John wasn't enthused about this movie.I've heard both ways. He does plan to at least go and see the movie though, according to what he says on his site:There’s the movie coming out this fall which should be interesting… (no comment) but I’m sure I’ll go and see it. - John Schneider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boduke1985 Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 How about Hank Williams, Jr.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgilbert Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 John Schneider would be a really good idea, but I doubt that he would really want to be associated with what WB is doing.Hank Williams Jr. could most definitely pull it off and Travis Tritt wouldn't be a bad choice either.It MUST be someone who can represent the South and definitely someone from the Country Music community, since so many artists did guest spots on the show.Randy Travis' deep baratone voice could definitely add to the movie.Toby Keith is also a good thought and Trace Adkins wouldn't do a bad job either.There are so many good options out there, but any bets as to how WB will screw this part up? Every other part of the movie is going California, so don't be surprised if David Hasselhoff is the one chosen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethie88 Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 John, if he wanted to, would be good... So would Trace... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 My choice a while ago for the Balladeer - Travis Tritt...Although the connection with the Highwaymen (Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson) would be ideal , my choice then would be Kris Kristofferson...

bethie88 Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 They may find someone good at it, but never will they find someone who does Waylon's job justice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fonzi242004 Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 i heard something on the local radio station yesterday about this. they said wb is trying to get toby to do it but he says he is gonna see the movie when celebrities are only allowed to see it and if he likes it he will let them edit his voice in as the balladeer.

Chet Duke Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 I heard the same about Toby Keith, though its a rumor.~Chet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasy_General_01fan Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Yeah I think that would be a pretty good idea....hank jr. or travis tritt! but will just have to see who they pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BH03 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 I say Hank Jr for the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale The Bold Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 The equation is simple. Get as close to Waylon Jennings as possible. My first choice would be Kris Kristofferson because not only is he one of the Highwaymen, he sounds a bit like Waylon.All these deep baritone voices are perfect for lulling me to sleep. Even an interview with Toby Keith makes me feel bored, even when I find what he's saying interesting. Waylon had so much character in his voice that he could hold your attention all day, just telling stories. I suggest getting a sound-alike.

travelerF150 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I think Randy Travis would be a good choice. He's got a very distinctive voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipper Duke Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Lance LeGault would have been ideal since he guest starred in Season 2 episode The Runaway, and was also Balladeer in the PlayStation 2 and Xbox game Return of the General Lee(2004).
