Real witcher hours.

Who will be the best choice to play him in the upcoming epic film?

(This is not, nor has this ever been a saga involving black people - unless you count those from Zerrikania - so Idris Elba is out of the question. FUCK your "but das racis'!" replies, too.)

>inb4 "go back to /v/" - because never once has a film been based on a video game, right? Also, the two are rapidly becoming interchangeable. Deal with it, old-fashioned twat.

Anson Mount is the best suggestion I've seen so far in terms of look, at least.
>>
I'd like it to be an unknown actor.
The neat thing about Geralt is that he doesn't really have much of a personality, he's pretty much a blank slate who wants to kill some monsters and get laid, so it'd be pretty hard to fuck up his character unless someone really hammed it up.
Its the other characters i'd be concerned with, as well as the monsters in the world.

This is a joke right?

"Video games as art" and the best people can come up with is some formidable mediocrity? It is in mentality and emotion, hopelessly juvenile, second-rate, POLISH, puffed up piece like this?

I think Mads might be a little too old for Geralt at this point. Maybe if they decided to do it 15 years ago.

But beyond that I just can't imagine Geralt without an American accent in a sea of limeys.
>>
>>81767599
Yeah actually, if he can pull off a Naaartthun accent

>>81771519

Duny/Urcheon wasn't that old when he's first introduced. He's like in his mid to late 20s at the oldest.

Same person. Emhyr is his birth name. Whilst he was in exile, he went by Duny, in human form and Urcheon of Erlanwald, while in his cursed form until Geralt helped lift it.

Did you not read any of the books?

He faked his death in Cintra/Skelliga so he could go and claim the Nilgarrdian thrown.

He barely ages. Also, the games aren't canon.

Autism. Geralt physically can't be older than 35. Mads is in his 50s. He's too old.

Letho doesn't exist in Witcher canon. He was created for the video games.
