Naruto Shippuden live cast (REVISED) by the soulEater

A re-do of my original cast for Naruto shippuden, my same warnings to all who hold the show dear.

Let me please again state this is a clearly hypathetical cast, I know we all fear a live inaction of ANYTHING anime being a flop like Dragon ball or Air Bender, but lets look at my cast in the eyes of knowing that were this made it would be by a brilliant director who could actually make a live action set of movies work, and a lot of them in sequence like the Harry Potter movies as that is the only way i could see the movies working to include all these characters.

Down to business...


This is a cast according to Shippuden's story arc that will be over several movies long understandably.

For Naruto Uzumaki, I choose Alexander Ludwig

good picks i like it ludwig as naruto would be good, i think bale should play orochimaru, sasuke and sakura picks are also good. reynolds would own the role of kakashi. solid cast dude thumbs up from me. the only naruto would be successful and avoid what happened to dragon ball would be if the studio takes seriously, things like these have potential to be massive franchises

great cast!! but i kind of pictured the guy from speed racer look more like kakashi? if it were to be movies then you should start with the original naruto and not with shippuden! unless u want prequals? plus i never really cared if the people from the show actually looked asian and that the movies should have either white or asian actors I just want an entertaining movie! screw those people that go ballistic! just make an awesome movie!!

I like it except Emily Osment as Tenten. and i think Johnny Depp should play Orochimaru with a different voice

fans would destroy this movie

I Love It!!!! Great work, highly avoiding that Airbender and Dragon Ball Z Evolution crap, race doesnt count for me as long as the actors could own the role and look almost spot on!!! Impossible to find actors who will look exactly like the characters :)I can see a lot of thought and time was put into this.

Soul eater I now you might not like what I have to say but white people can't
Play a Asian. can't work plus you can't capture the personality
Of a manga chareter thats why DBE went so wrong pluse some of
Your people that you choose to play the parts r to old, there 16 years
Old not 30 like Elijah Wood, use some People a little younger.
I know I bitching but I am a die hard naruto fan and if it's not purefect
Thin it dose not need to be put out. But [frick] it I'm just 1 person
So who cares.

That's all

@Here is where we part ways Soulhunter888 (Omg SoulEater vs. SoulHunter) Geek moment over lol,

A white person would not be able to portray certain asian people to a degree understandable, BUT i've seen Japanese versions of King Lear, Russian portrayls of King Hamlet (in english btw) just look at Keneth Branagh's stuff. My drive isn't just to get actors who look the role, and lets face it (what AUTHENTIC looking blonde haired blue eye'd asians are there out there?)
But actors who could portray the roles well, witht he same motivation it takes to portray a charactor on stage. Thats the only way the movies if at all could work, let me re-iterate that I dont think these movies should or would be made, just COULD. If there was brilliant and visionary enough director, ...Zack Snyder maybe.....maybe.....and a cast of actors who had good range to play those roles for that time, the movie could actually be good.

Dragon ball was poorly written, executed, coreographed, and just plain done. Air bender was poorly ACTED, poorly cast, Poorly ACTED, revoltingly written, and had bad Acting, inspite of the many good actors in the movie. Had someone else written the scripts, (directed the movie while we're at it.) and kept the cast...the movie could have been 10 times better, Not at the measure of the show by any means, in fact i doubted even before seeing it that good or bad it could EVER come close, but at least the movie would be good because Jackson, Taub, Patel and even Aang for his litterally first acting job were good actors, just given ** for lines, and worse for blocking and acting choaching.

Were someone to align the stars of these actors, with that of the stars good writing (And keep in mind it WILL have to deviate from the show so that the actors don't gawk for 10 seconds straight while squeezing their hands into fists angrily) Good acting(I personally think Bale could morph himself scarily into Orochimaru based on just how he's morphed himself into a psycho, a broklyn american, and even a mexican), and finally GREAT bad ass CGI likened to Star Trek, over a chain of movies, the series could most definatlly
...NOT suck.

Thats all, and I respect your disagreement and understand it fully btw

I'm sorry.......if they made it like WHAT now?

this is an amazing cast, but I would be pissed if they started at shippuden, just start at the beginning and film several movies back to back and then take a 3 year break, let the kids age then go into shippuden.
TheSoulEater
TheSoulEater - 1/7/2011, 1:06 PM
It would have to be done like the HP series, these are just the cast i have for Shippuden cause thats where i am right now.

For them to do the movies right, have a good kid play Naruto now and Sasuke and the rest, Probobly with Anna Sophia Robb as Sakura and keep Josh Hutcherson as Shikamaru, with Maybe Dakota Fanning as Temari.

Then do the movies 1,2, 3, 4 to finally the 3 and 4th being the SHippuden ones.

@SoulHunter88- WHAT?!?!

atlien - 1/9/2011, 3:08 PM
@Soul eater: I mean no disrespect, but are u serious with that last comment? Dakota Fanning is too young, skinny, and ugly to play Temari. Temari is suposed to be older than the others by 3 years and is also the most well developed out of all the other girls. Dakota looks like she's fresh outta middle school not like she's 18 years old.

But I'd like to know if it would be lame of me to put up my cast? I bit off some of your picks, cause you do have some good ones, but some of the others make me say wtf?
TheSoulEater
TheSoulEater - 1/9/2011, 4:42 PM
@atlien- Not at all
atlien
atlien - 1/9/2011, 6:08 PM
Thanks.I didn't wanna just go ahead and use it cause I got a few of my picks from u. Btw. Cameron Bright looks Just like Sasori in that pic.
TheSoulEater
TheSoulEater - 1/10/2011, 1:29 AM
@There's a more convincing Sasori-esque pic of Cameron but i couldn't get it on photobucket

atlien - 1/10/2011, 9:55 PM
This is convincing enough. He has the hair and the eyes in that pic.

The Only One I am 100% with is Ben Barnes as Itachi, Itachi comes across Attractive and Ben Barnes is the Most Handsome Guy in the World.
Anyway cause I Love Ben as Itachi, I think Gregg Sulkin would be a Perfect Sasuke as he looks alittle like Ben Barnes but not as Good-Looking as Ben Barnes,Obviously.
