These threads of who should play such and such pop up in assorted places on DM periodically. This one will be different. We are not going to try thinking of a good actor for a character. Rather, each person posting will name an actor. The next person will name the WoT character they feel best suits that actor, and then name an actor of their own.

I'll start you off.

Jennifer Lawrence.

Edited July 16, 201412 yr by Basel Gill

Hm... I guess I´m thinking of her most as Katnis so I will say Birgitte. (Can´t remember how she is described except for her braid.

 

 

Ewan McGregor

Well, I still think of him as young Obi-Wan, except he'd now be more like Kenobi several years after fighting in the prequels. So I'm thinking of Tam al'Thor here, as a good swordsman who hasn't fought in a long time.

 

Daniel Craig

I can see Daniel Craig as Sammael.

 

Kate Beckinsale

Oooh, Kate. I'd say Moghedien.

 

 

Joseph Gordon Lewitt

I'll go on a limb here and say I could see him as Mat? Maybe would need a change of hair colour but otherwise think it would do nicely. Feel free to agree or disagree, I'm interested.

 

Viggo Mortensen

 

And nice choices so far. Especially your use of Kate Mish  

Edited July 16, 201412 yr by ReleaseTheEvil

Viggo would make a good Rahvin, I think.

 

Bryan Cranston

Fain. Definitely Fain.

 

Robert Downey Jr?

Maybe Hammar?

 

Helena Bonham Carter

Ninja´d. My answer was to Basel. 

I don´t know about Robert - he looks like he could be from Illian or Tear. Some asha´man from down there? I´m really bad at this.

 

Go ahead and pick both Robert and Helena. :D

Because of Harry Potter, I see Helena as one of the Forsaken.  Dye her hair gold, and I guess Graendal?  I am so bad at this lol.

 

Lol for Robert, since Rahvin was taken, Ituralde?  Idk, like I said, I'm bad at this. :P

 

Emma Watson

I think Emma Watson could play a good Egwene--reminiscent of Hermione, who is also a know-it-all.

 

 

Alan Rickman?

I could see him as Thom.

 

Benedict Cumberbatch

Definitely Rand! :D

 

Martin Freeman?

Gawyn?

 

And can I hope to assume by that name combination that you watch Sherlock?

 

Also, Christian Bale

Dobraine for Bale?

 

Sean Bean

Lews Therin. He's got to die so get it over with, LOL.

 

Ben Affleck?

lol 

 

I´m so bad at this game. I just want to say a random asha´man or warder to all of them. lol

 

Carry on...

For Ben - I say Tam al'Thor or Abell Cauthon

 

Kevin McNally (I really hope someone picks the person I think he should play )

That must be Baile Domon!

Thomas Brodie-Sangster

That must be Baile Domon!

Perfect

 

TBS - Olver

 

Johnny Depp

 

That must be Baile Domon!

Perfect

 

TBS - Olver

 

Johnny Depp

 

Depp could pull off a decent Taim in my mind

 

 

Felicia Day

Doesnt look like it in that pic but maybe Morgase? You should honestly ban me from this game lol.

 

Morgan Freeman. :P Had to put him in here
