So we all agree he should play Geralt, right?
>>82869260
he should play Napoleon
Mads' voice is wonky in a different way from Geralt's wonky voice. Old Geralt model was obviously based on Jeremy Irons.
>>82869260
got a fucked up gravel voice too
Anson Mount would be good too
>>82869738
>short neck
>narrow shoulders
he's a manlet ain't he
>>82869937
6′ 1″. Almost a manlet.
>>82869994
His head's just that big then?
>>82870064
yep
>>82870064
Yeah, have you ever seen Hell on Wheels? His head is distractingly large.
>>82869738
this guy is the best i've seen appearance wise
>>82869260
you are all wrong
the guy from the Vvitch, and his voice, must be geralt. I have only beaten the prologue of 2 and I know this.
>>82869260
>Not a slav
>Unsuitable voice
>Probably too old
I like Mads, but I don't get this meme
>>82869260
Does he have the best cheekbones in the business?
>>82869260
I think you're overlooking idris elba
>>82870424
Yes
ITT: /tv/ once again casts on looks rather than acting ability and charisma
never change retards
>>82869260
this triggers me
I already hated the book but somehow the movie managed to be even more boring.
>>82870852
but mads is a talented and charismatic actor
yes
>>82870852
Nah bugger off Mads is kino.
He works well with young actors too, you can easily picture him in the Ciri training scene from the game. He also has that seductive charisma you need to work with a group of women.
>>82870064
I am 6'2'' but look short in pictures because I have wide shoulders and a big head
>>82871171
Jesus Christ that bone structure
>>82871217
6'2" is nothing to be proud of. You're basically the king of manlets
>>82871222
impeccable
>>82871222
trips for truth, that dane was truly blessed by the gods
>>82871171
>>82871222
He would honestly make THE perfect vampire for a VTM: White Wolf series.
>>82871171
A E S T H I C
>>82869260
He hasn't got the voice for it
>>82872008
Honestly I'm sure he could do a monotone David Hayter-lite interpretation of it and it'd sound fine.
Why are people hyped for this? Source material is shit for the most part past the short stories.
>>82872087
Sapkowski isn't that bad, people should be more concerned about Netflix being the showrunner and all of the invclusive and diverse castings we're sure to receive.
Too old
>>82872175
I'm pretty sure geralt's over 100 years old man
>>82872200
He looks around 30
Cast him
>>82872087
It gets a bit stale when the story gets recycled but I imagine they would change that up to make it more suited for TV.
>>82872151
That is a concern.
>>82872285
I'd say in his early 40s desu
>>82872360
Jonah Hill
>>82872394
W3 is fanfiction
>>82869260
Why not Aidan Gillen?
>>82872445
lmao
>>82869738
he looks JUST like geralt from the video game. it's uncanny. looks-wise i think he takes it but i dont know about his acting. i havent seen hell on wheels.
>>82869260
for acting i would go with viggo mortensen or mads mikkelson
>honorable mentions
nickolaj coster waldau (jaime lannister) would be good as well as high jackman
>>82869425
well the closest thing to a rivian accent is american if we're going from the games. doing an american accent shouldnt be that hard.
>>82872516
But it literally is
>>82873357
>>82869260
Isn't the netflix series based on the books? It needs a young Geralt in that case.
As much as I don't like to admit it, Huge Actman will fill the role pretty well
>>82873357
too old. he would make a great vesemir though
No. Geralt speaks coherently. Mads does not.

Dead on arrival. Screencap this post.
Got your geralt right here
>>82873853
I swear to god if this show is fully CG I will flip my shit.
>>82869576
This. He can pull off a great mix of charming/menacing as well.
>>82873923
Geralt isn't charming at all though
Josh Hollaway (Sawyer from Lost) literally has the perfect look for Geralt.
>>82874386
I could see this.
>>82874427
Not sure how decent of an actor he is though, I've only seen him in Lost
>>82874386
>t. Josh Holloway
>>82874386
the way he talks though
Anson Mount for sure
Underrated Actor and could use a breakout role
Yes.
>>82873357
I want this.
>>82874922
I liked Mads before. Iam gayfor him now.
>>82874850
The guy is a total cunt in real life. My brother worked with him for years on Hell on Wheels.
>>82874922
It's stuff like this that makes me all >>82875498 too. I think it's Mads' brain I'mgayfor.
>>82873357
Geralts already 100ish years old, I doubt the books take place that much earlier.
>>82869738
Anson would be great on paper for the kind of quiet, gruff badass thing, BUT I've only seen him in HoW, so I don't know if he has the range to BE Geralt vs being Anson Mount dressed as Geralt. Kinda Clint Eastwood Syndrome.
Mads could pull it off no problem, but it would be something a bit different than what we're used to, for better or for worse.
McGowan, I think, is probably a little too villainous. Don't feel like he'd be able to establish the simpatico we'd need for Geralt.
>>82869738
He's got it imo.
Mads is a more of a movie guy. Yeah he had Hannibal but that was a special condition in that he was the star and it was almost destined for him.
This guy is purely tv.
>>82869260
We all agree he should play Roland of Gilead, right?
>>82877273
Get him literally any role possible, a Viggo spot means that's one less spot for a diversity casting a la classic Netflix
>>82877273
REEEEE IDRIS ISN'T THAT GOOD OF AN ACTOR
>>82873690
Games take place not long after the books end. Like a year. First and second games take place within 12 months
>>82869260
>best Geralt stepping in
>>82877767
idris is fine, viggo just would've been better
>>82869260
are you 15?
What if he doesn't want to? It always annoys me when you guys say this, almost like you're DEMANDING they play your video game characters
>>82872360
giv ciri gf
>>82869576
if this dude doesn't at least SHOW UP in the show in some way, i don't even fucking understand.
we need this nigga, ian mcshane to show up as Vesemir or some shit
now all we need is an eskell, lambert, and triss and we're off to a good start
>>82878379
shwegin should be in everything in some capacity
>>82874850
He is also one of the more fit actors over 40.
>could use a breakout role
He is "Blackbolt" in the upcoming marvel Inhumans series.
>>82878033
Back off froggy, she's mine.
>>82870852
>mads and irons
>no acting ability
fuck off you plebian sub-human scum
>>82869738
His face reminds me of Jim Caviezel, though hed have to work on his voice
>>82869260
I think Josh Halloway could pull it off pretty well. He's got the look and his minimally expressive act would fit Gerald well. His voice is bass enough that if he added a little rasp or growl, it'd sound pretty close to video game Geralt. I think Nikolaj Coster Waldau could also be competent in the role.
Kate Beckinsale as Yen
Katherine Namare as Triss
As much as I hate the guy, I think Aziz Ansari could make a really good Dandelion.
Imogen Poots for Ciri
Jude Law as Foltest
Big Guy as Letho
No idea who I'd go with for Vesemir. I think Liam Neeson could be good at it but his over saturation of roles would be immersion breaking for me.
Brian Cox as Henselt
Zoltan would be tough to cast, no idea who I'd go with
That disgusting little Gremlin Adam Sessler could play Dethmold
Orlando Bloom as that Nilfgaardian general Moorvan or whatever
Gimme some feedback, ideas, whatever, or just tell me to kill myself. Any (you) will do.
>>82873856
WE WUZ PAGANZ AN SHEIT. DA EBIL CHRISTIANS RUINS AR LARPS.
>>82874922
>Its a big job
for you
>>82877971
> hey baby how did you enjoy last night? ;)
> it was fine
>>82879056
>Aziz Ansar
he's probably the right type of irritating but don't buy him as a successful womaniser
>>82879056
Katherine McNamara? I could maybe see her as Triss. I know she's younger than Yen but is it supposed that big of an age gap?
Kek'd at Sessler. You're right though he's got the weasel face and the hunched shoulders and his slimy personality would be perfect.
>>82879219
I agree that Aziz would be able to pull off the womanizer aspect in an aggressive or suave way but I don't really feel like that's Dandelion's way either. He kind of disarms women by showing how sensitive and in touch with them they are which I think he could do. He'd have to tone down his annoying voice and speak a little more velvety, but I think he could make it work.
>>82879287
Yeah, Katherine McNamara. Untermensch phone poster reporting in and my goddamn auto correct blew my cover
>>82872462
>You're a big ghoul
>>82878609
>>82878641
plss
>>82879404
Would *NOT* be able to pull off the aggressive womanizing. Fucking phone. I need to get my laptop fixed.
I'm a fan of Geralt as much as you all but I think a more diverse choice of actor would really help develop his character.
>>82879056
>brian cox as henselt
THIS
>>82869260
He's too naturally slimy to be a roughly endearing gruff anti hero like Gerald. Even One-Eye came off as such.
They better not make a fucking movie
Fuck that shit and fuck everyone pushing for it
>>82879486
Kill your motherfucking self, my main man. Kill yourself.
>>82870131
He looks nothing like him
Assange.
>>82872445
Yeah it is, what's your point?
>>82879486
Not to mention that Idris can really capture the ladykiller aspect of his character.
>>82872864
thats my three choices as well. Viggo idk if he'd accept it for LOTR comparisons but Mads and Nikolaj would be top notch choice. Both not committed to anything by the time this eventually debuts with GOT being over and Mads doing fuck knows what.
>>82878595
>Marvel Inhumans Series on Abc
Yeah thats gonna be a flop. Not even the everyday Marvel fans are hyped for it. They know itll suck like the other Abc shows
>>82877767
He's a nigger
He didn't have the right to be Roland and neither does anyone who isn't white
It pisses me off even more because MM is playing the man in Black and I really want to see that but I won't give them the views
>>82879577
your whole post is bullshit.
>>82869576
I hated his voice. It sounded like he needed to clear his throat.
>>82871171
I thought that was Cillian Murphy at first
>>82879486

Pinched, rat face, lanklet with no intimidating presence. Terrible, take a lap.
>>82880036
A much improved Cillian Murphy, to be sure.
>>82869260
>gestalt on geralt
>>82869260
Bump. Don't let this thread die on me lads
so which GoT cast member past or present is gonna meme their way into this?
who the fuck is geralt
>>82881161
Aiden Gillen is playing Geralt
Book geralt is an ugly fuck and this is an adaption of those with heavy involvement with sapkowski so they're probably gonna get some weird looking euro dude
>>82872864
viggo wouldn't do this shit
>>82869260
Unironically Sean Bean.
>>82874386
too tanned.
>>82881343
See this picture
>>82879056
He has the perfect look for Geralt. You could open coconuts on that jaw.
