This is the lineup I'd like to see used for the upcoming TNT Titans television series. Some of these characters could prove impossible/difficult to use for various reasons but this team is assuming little to no restrictions when it comes to licenses and all that. For the sake of ease, the team would be Dick Grayson, Raven, Blue Beetle, Terra, Starfire, Beast Boy, Wendy, and Marvin after eliminating the choices that are unlikely.
Nightwing has been confirmed to be appearing by Geoff Johns himself so this one is a no-brainer.
Raven is one of my favorite characters in comics. If she is written properly then she could be something special in live action.
With his involvement in the planned DCCU and reworked history in the New 52, I doubt this will happen but I prefer Cyborg to have at least started as a Titan.
Cassie was a breakout star of Geoff Johns Teen Titans run (one of my favorite runs ever) and
Jaime Reyes is a fun character with some Peter Parker type sensibilities that could make for a lot of interesting on-screen dynamics. Plus, if they have the budget to do it, his suit could look really awesome in live action.
Terra, in my vision, would start out as a member of the team before her betrayal was revealed as a part of the live action Judas Contract arc I hope to see. If it was up to me she would be on the team for the entire first season and at least half of season 2 before she betrays the Titans. This would allow for a larger impact to the reveal and gives the audience an emotional attachment to the events unfolding.
The prospect of a Blackfire arc is the only reason I include Starfire over Miss Martian. I envision a scenario where Starfire wouldn't be a part of the team until a season or two down the line.
Some comedy goes a long way for a show that will probably be prone to melodrama with a cast consisting of teenagers. Plus, this team is very power heavy and a couple less powerful characters would be needed to balance things out a bit.
Archers are cool. This is a fairly unlikely inclusion as he is already a supporting character in Arrow. I doubt we'll see two television versions of the same character (a bummer for a number of the iconic Titans villains)
A brother/sister duo that would act as non-combatant support members of the team. Wendy and Marvin would essentially act as the Caitlin/Cisco of the Titans.
