Elend - I struggled to choose this character. Elend is my favorite character in the books and I had a few people in mind. Eventually I chose Freddie Highmore although he might be too old now to pull it off.

Mistborn Fantasy Cast
Alright! It is about time I put together a fantasy cast for Mistborn. It would be near as detailed as my Wheel of Time cast but it will still be fun! I will possibly add/change things frequently as I think about this more.
Vin - This was not a tough choice. Ellen Page has been floated around as a potential for Vin ever since the book came out and I have never thought of anybody else to play her. Ellen would do an excellent job.
Elend - I struggled to choose this character. Elend is my favorite character in the books and I had a few people in mind. Eventually I chose Freddie Highmore although he might be too old now to pull it off.
Kelsier - Again, this is someone that many people have talked about for playing Kelsier. Nathan Fillion is a great choice. Kelsier is a fun-loving, go with the flow type of guy and sort of eccentric. Nathan Fillion fits this bill perfectly. I would be open to other choices, but I am all for this happening.
Kelsier - I know a lot of people are going to be haters and I'm generally not a big Tom Cruise fan but I just think he could pull off Kelsier. Bouncing from serious to spontaneous with a touch of crazy. I just think he could pull it off well.
Marsh - I am definitely open to different suggestions on Marsh but I think that Christopher Eccleston could pull it off.
Breeze - Perfect. Just take a look at his role in MI3 to see his pompous attitude. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is a great choice to play Breeze.
Clubs - I was thinking Jason Statham could play either Ham or Clubs but eventually I settled on Clubs because I think the personality matches better.
Spook - Honestly, I don't know if he could pull it off but I always imagined Spook kind of like this picture of Logan Lermon. Again, kind of unsure about this one but I'm gonna stick with it for now.
Elend - I struggled to choose this character. Elend is my favorite character in the books and I had a few people in mind. Eventually I chose Freddie Highmore although he might be too old now to pull it off.

When I have a second, I'll look this over and give suggestions!
ReplyDeleteYour Vin is perfect btw

I really like Ellen Page as Vin. I also think Emma Watson could work since she's tiny like Vin is and she's a good actress, but she might be to old by now. That's the problem with Vin, is that a lot of the good actresses that could play her are too old. I've also heard people talkin about Chloe Grace Moretz for her, which I could see being good. I also think Michael Fassbender would make a good Kelsier, or maybe Guy Pierce.
ReplyDeleteOh, I forgot, Joseph Gorden Levitt as Elend would be AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteI think spook should have a little more anonymity to him. He isn't that big of a role and should be thought of as an extra. I'm not so sure about Nathan Fillion just because of all the action. Tom Cruise would be a better choice.
ReplyDeleteRandomly stumbled onto this...you're clearly a genius. PSH as Breeze is brilliant, and I've always thought Ellen Page is a great Vin.
ReplyDeleteI was just surfing around the net when I saw your post. And though Ellen Page is a great actress she is just too old to play Vin. And also Vin is really skinny unlike Ellen Page.
