Casting New Vegas

Post » Tue Jul 10, 2012 12:52 pm

So, who would you cast as your favorite characters in the game, if it got a TV show/movie? Putting aside practical considerations like whether an actor would actually agree to appear in such a show, or if such a show even makes sense.

This was inspired by my watching Amazing Spider-Man and noticing the guy who played Richard Parker. Look at http://blogs.sundaymercury.net/anorak-city/SPIDER-MAN%20Richard%20and%20Mary%20Parker.jpg and tell me that he doesn't a strong 'Arcade Gannon' vibe to you (minus the wife, obviously).

Though now that I'm actually thinking about it, I don't usually associate any particular character with an actor, except when they're actually the voice actors - like John Doman for Caesar (actually a good physical fit, too) or Felicia Day as Veronica.

I like to picture my courier as Christian Bale: http://mt-blogs-redesign.syfy.com/scifiwire/assets_c/2009/01/TerminatorSalvation_Bale-thumb-550x350-11708.jpg :rofl:

In all seriousness about other characters, I agree with you about Arcade Gannon, except the guy is a little too old considering that Arcade looks pretty young. I don't think anyone has made this comparison before, but I'll make it. http://totallylookslike.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/9b806986-69c5-4c48-8f51-a68ea2ac64ff.jpg

The part in italics was sarcasm.

I would give every single role in the game to Mr. T.

Wow Gingy, I bet they based House on Hughes, I mean both were eccentric millionaires! LOL

@ Tranquillus: Hey, yea, I totally get Arcade from that guy! And Arcade says he's late... thirty-ish... so the age would match very well here.

Hmm, I really haven't thought about who would play who in a Fallout movie.

OH http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Mark-Wahlberg---Shooter-mark-wahlberg-245172_937_1400.jpg could play Boone :)

Whose an actor who is black, has a really deep voice, and looks good in dreads?

I'd like to see Clive Owen play Lucius... He's pretty tall but not rediciously tall (6'2") which I picture Lanius to be around 6'-6'5" plus he can be an arrogant SOB,
