Philip North | 4 comments Hi All,
I hope that its ok to post this here.
I've been putting together a bit of a list of actors and actresses that I can imagine in / would like to see in the Kingkiller Chronicles movie/tv series and id love some feedback or some suggestions.
I'd love to know who you see playing the characters we all love.
just follow the link below to find my currently meager list, Cheers

Susanne (exeidur) It's a pretty nice list! I can't say I agree with all of them, but I find Laurian, Auri, Devi, Ambrose, and Abenthy to be very well chosen. I'd leave out Chris Pratt because he's in a bit too much lately, but I don't have a better suggestion, sorry. I do hope you get some nice suggestions!


Roxana Badralexi | 1 comments Hi, interesting choices. Some of them seem perfect to me: Elle Fanning, Iwan Rheon, Charles Dance, J.K. Simmons, Jeffrey Dean Morgan. What about David Tannant for Master Elodin, Megan Fox for Denna or Jennifer Lawrence for Devi? Kvothe is difficult, very difficult. Maybe James MaAvoy...15 years ago. Is Eddie Redmayne too old? What a pity!
Anyhow, the cast will have to be perfect for this movie. Simply perfect.
Cheers

Cheers Susanne,
I get where your coming from about Chris Pratt, but im having trouble coming up with someone else with his inherent "fatherly" warmth and comedy if you get what i mean. Possibly Tom Hiddleston

Love your list Philip


Alice Milosevic | 2 comments Roxanne, Megan Fox being casted as Denna would probably be the worst choice.


Tyler (taterpickles) | 11 comments have to agree, I would be very disappointed to see Megan fox cast as Denna. I think a little less fame would be best for most characters in fact


Japhia | 66 comments I always imagined Adelaide Kane as Denna. Her show reign just ended.


Jason (jzone) | 79 comments I think for Denna you need someone who can handle the vast range needed. Someone like Jennifer Lawrence or Shailene Woodley... but not necessarily them.


Slick | 54 comments I wouldn't mind an entirely new cast to be honest and try to keep as true to the story as much as possible.. but maybe Ian Mckellan for Ben and Tom Hiddleston for Cinder.. That would be cool..

Oooooooh. Tom Hiddleston as Cinder - that's an awesome thought.

What about Felicity Jones as Denna?


Debie Ferreira | 3 comments I vote for Tom Hiddleston as Cinder ✋


Scott | 3 comments I always thought that Kaya Scodelario would be a good Denna.

+1 for Kaya

Slick | 54 comments Ooooohhh +2 for Kaya!


Japhia | 66 comments Kaya would be great but at this point most of the actors mentioned are a bit to old to play the characters.

I think I'd prefer to have a fresh crop of new or relatively theater actors.
