Ha! I don’t know that I’ll have any say at all. But from what I understand, casting directors do sometimes look at fan choices. That’s how the HBO peeps found Jason Momoa for Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones. (And a splendid job by all, I say.)
Just as a note, my AskBox is FULL OF HILARITY right now due to an earlier reblog. No, I don’t see the Darkling with facial hair, but if that’s how a reader sees him I’m still gonna reblog. For all I know, there’s someone out there who pictures the Darkling as Will Ferrell. Ain’t my job to judge.
