Truth be told, I'm not 100% sold on either principle stars. Though the series looks faithful, I'm expecting a different feel to the characters. They apparently told Ramsey and Pascal to not play the games before shooting.
Pedro Pascal is great, but seems horribly miscast here.

yeah honestly i have no clue how Pascal could pull off the role of a rugged loner badass who softens up after taking on an adoptive father role to a child he has to shepherd to safety with a very small handful of friends/people he can trust along the way
im less convinced about Ramsey. i have no specific reason to doubt, i just havent seen her in anything extensive. thought she owned basically every scene she was in as Mormont, but that doesnt necessarily add up to a lead role as Ellie
telling them not to play the game sounded dumb at first... but a long as they read the scripts for it, its probably fine. probably too much pressure to specifically recreate every little speech pattern in the big scenes if they watched it. let them do their own thing.
i was fine with the casting until I saw that joel's daughter is black nowcome on man
too lazy to format it, buti was fine with the casting until I saw that joel's daughter is black now
That's probably the thing that bothers me the least.i was fine with the casting until I saw that joel's daughter is black now
Whoops my bad I didn’t see where he was wearing a full suit of armor as Joel the whole time, my mistake tbh.
100% guarantee you it aint gonna be 15 mins of screentime. they're going to play heavily on flashbacks imoThat's probably the thing that bothers me the least.
tbh i dont actually care, it's not gonna deter me from watching it but its one of those things thats just like, why. there is already plenty of diversity in the cast. unless they just wanted the first person to die to be black
so basically he can pull off the same role but only if he doesnt look a little chilean while doing it
Why not put Arnold Schwarzenegger in that role, he’s been a badass who connects with children and the only difference is hE’d LoOk a LiTtLe AuStRiAn!
The Rock as Joel!
-badass
-good with kids
-only difference is he looks a little Samoan!
ah yes. schwartzenegger, the rock, and pedro pascal. 3 equal quality actors
do vin diesel next
Oh sorry, I missed all the SAG awards on Pedro Pascal’s shelf. And good actors can still be miscast.
I'm gonna watch it regardless but the insistence to not cast characters how they look in the source material is kinda getting annoying. I'm not gonna take to social media and cry about it because it ain't really a big deal but it would be nice to get a faithful adaptation of an existing IP for once
Nick Offerman looks great as Bill though, thats a perfect casting choice
tom cruise was the best possible choice for jack reacher, though
i hate that they cast hugh jackman as wolverine because the character is supposed to be short and jackman is 6'3
Didn't watch his reacher and don't really care tbh. Just my opinion. You are welcome to (clearly) disagree
The casting choice for the Reacher show on Amazon was much better though

Of course some actors will be so good that they transcend the role and make it their own. There is a difference between being miffed by certain casting choices and being a wad crying about wokeness and refusing to watch it. And I reserve the right to end up enjoying the choice once I see the performance. So maybe take those silly examples elsewhere. Im not Nathan or calf tats
that was more of a meme joke because avante complained like crazy that tom cruise was way too short to be reacher
And Chump kept insisting that Cruise was perfect for the role, pissing Avante off each time.

Ah gotcha, hadn't seen that thread I guess
