The Last of Us(VG) Fan Casting
Its another The Last of Us Fan Casting, come and see.
Sorry to the people who checked out my previous unused fan casting for TLoU, its finally here.
I originally had different castings for most of the characters, but they were mostly like every other castings out there so I tried to make more original picks and Im going over the my "realistic" choices as I am casting more well known names. Its screem Gems so we're probably going to be mad with final casting.
Now for "The Last of Us", the things we know:
- Sam Raimi is Producing and possible Directing.
- Neil Druckmann; the maker of the game, is writing the screenplay.
- Screen Gems are the distributors and Ghost house pictures are the production company. SG and GHP are not good signs for the adaptation, as they don't produce many great films.
Now to the Casting:
Joel - Hugh Jackman
I picked Hugh because he's Hugh. I know he's in every other fan casting but I honestly think he would be best for the role. I just hope if cast it doesn't conflict with Wolverine.
Ellie - Raffey Cassidy
I had many choices for Ellie but I chose Raffey out of the bunch because she was outstanding and outshines everybody in Tomorrowland. She's going to a huge star, it just a matter of time.
My other choices were Mackenzie Foy, Danielle Rose Russell and My favorite choice for Ellie is Kaitlyn Dever but she's to old now.
David - Paul Bettany
Look at that face. I know he doesn't resemble David but Paul is a great actor, like you already know. He could play the manipulative and disturbing side of David and shine a new light on the character to be more relatable for his actions.
Marlene - Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Gugu, what a terrific actress. She doesnt resemble Marlene very much and perhaps she's to beautiful for the role but she could play the emotion and desperation the character has in saving the world.
Tommy - Michiel Huisman
Michiel would be a bit younger then Tommy is in the game but he has the right look, and the demeanor of a smart badass. I would like his role in the film to be a slighly larger than in the game.
Tess - Mackenzie Davis
Tess is tricky, do you cast a well known actress or not, make her younger or older and how large of a role would it be. I chose Mackenzie, She's younger and up and coming and it wont matter the size of the role, she would play it with conviction.
I can see them bringing Annie Wersching back, she was so good in Bosch
Bill - Brendan Gleeson
I would like them to bring a different nationality and Bill would bring a man who was in America when the outbreak happened and got stuck there without his family. Bill is a hard man, not showing trust or sympathy and there is no other man than Brendan to play him.
Henry - Jason Mitchell
I havent seen Straight Outta Compton yet but I hear Jason was the star of the film. He just signed on to Kong and he looks like he's destined for greatness. I chose him on a whim and dont have much of opinion on it, except that he looks like Henry.
Sam - Skylan Brooks
Skylan is older then Sam is in the game but I so impressed with him in Mister and Pete I couldnt see any one else for the role.
Maria - Amy Seimetz
Not much to say, Amy is a great actress and do great to play the wife of Tommy. And she looks like she would scare Joel.
Robert - Jerome Flynn
Lets not play games, there is no other then Jerome to play Robert.
