Multiplat The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Tales of a legendary card playing, camomile drinking adventurer

[Sterge]

Not that she isn't hot, but I don't think she has the right look to play Yen


Does Netflix do nudity? If it were an HBO show it would be a certainty

Plenty of netflix shows have nudity, orange is the new black has heaps, altered carbon as mentioned. Just depends on the show.

Good point. Makes me think of Alexandra Daddorio. Did nudity in True Detective is 32 so has time with the role and those eyes.

I'm on board let's start a petition

and look at the first 2 names here https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6533240/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5

Henry you know what to do

 

[Nickos66]

Interesting choice with Cavill, He looks a little young, but I think he has the eyebrows for the role.

A bit more grey and stubble and it'll work fine.

 

[Sterge]

Cavill in the Tudors

Slap on a grey wig, dye his beard and makeup puts on a ripping scar over his eye and the wolf contact lenses and imo he would be a pretty good Geralt

 

[pantskyle]

Yeah the look will be fine, I imagine it'll be almost a prequel story or at least elements of anyway so he being a bit younger would make sense, unless they are adapting straight from the novels.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

You just want to see her **** again, I also agree, get her involved, any role.

Eyes > ****

 

[Soups]

Amazing warlocks.

 

[dwwaino]

I don’t know who any of these actresses are but I’m happy googling them.

 

[Chism]

Eva Green for me.

Absolute bombshell and has the best rack in Hollywood who is not afraid to let them out either!

 

[Gigantic]

Jennifer Connolly 10 years ago would make for a great Yen

 

[dirty2]

Eva Green for me.

Who?

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Alright conversation has dried up time to move onto Triss. Christina Hendricks, stuff her age and show me those norks.

But seriously Gemma Arterton for mine.

If we go with the red hair version of Triss then give me Jessica Chastain.

That would be one hell of a get

 

[Sterge]

That would be one hell of a get

sure if you want an old and boring Triss

 

[Nickos66]

Well.. that was quick.

 

[drd23]

Pretty sure that mock-up was taken from twitter
EDIT: Yep, it's not an official poster, was made by this guy
There's a second one he made that's pretty good too

 

[gaskin]

I like it.

 

[Nickos66]

Even if it's not legit - it's still well done.

Personally, I'm not too fussed with the aesthetics as far as Geralt's looks go, i'll be far more interested to see if Henry's able to portray that razor sharp dry wit of Geralts well or not. That's the real test IMO.

bought his Batman/Bane print the other day. Wish he’d open a store in Melbourne, where he’s based.

Oh baby.

Apparently the Witcher sub-reddit is having a bit of a meltdown over the revelation that the casting announcement for the role of Ciri calls for a teenager girl of a minority background.

Will be interesting to see how they manage to make it work given the emphasis on her eye/hair colour and her parentage in the books.

I would have thought that if they wanted to cast for diversity that there would have been plenty of other, less controversial characters to do it with than one of the main ones of Geralt/Yenn/Ciri

 

[Red Black and Blue]

It seems a strange choice, blood line being so important in her case. Also kinda got the feeling Emyr is a little bigoted. I get the need for representation but think it’s better to retcon new characters than change the identity of established ones. Chuck in a Zerrakanian Witcher or two.

 

[drd23]

Wouldn't even need to be new characters imo - could easily be secondary, but still important, characters like Dandelion, whose physical appearance isn't emphasised in the source material

 

[edgie]

Is Cavil allowed to grow facial hair, or will it have to be CGI altered?

The outrage laden with references to whitewashing are a bit much (and are missing the point entirely). That said, I'm pretty unhappy about the decision. Don't get me wrong, I think it's admirable that they're being inclusive in their casting. There aren't enough big roles for those of a minority background and I applaud writers and producers for encouraging diversity and for providing these opportunities. When you have a character whose lineage and appearance is central to the plot and context of the (much-adored) source material, however, you represent it as accurately as you can and make these accommodations elsewhere.
