dsmp actor au pog?
Dream smp actor au pog?
Just a heads up: i'm not including everyone in this, it would get far cluttered and long (Also: characters appear in the order they appeared on the Dream SMP)
Individual Hcs:
c!Dream
He's a pretty well-known actor even before the SMP
He was praised heavily for his work in the action series "Manhunt"
The producers of the DSMP viewed him as the best choice for the then main character due to his versatile acting abilities and the fact that he does his own stunts
Throughout the filming, he had so much fun going from protagonist to antagonist and watching the fan's reactions to the descent
In meet and greets and the like, he always likes playing the bad guy and insists on having his prison arc scar prosthetics on during (absolutely loves when the younger kids roots for the villains and will take pictures with them if they ask)
On set, he's pretty serious about getting filming done, so he rarely makes jokes during filming (especially during the more serious parts of the show, when he isn't being filmed though, he openly jokes with the other cast members
He's just one of those "there's a difference between work and play" types of people
His favorite scene by far is Wilbur's revival scene, regularly its a cool idea, but he thinks that Will's acting paired with the special and after effects make the scene really come to life
c!George
Was mainly known for playing in cheesy romance movies before being a costar in "Manhunt", where he became friends with Dream, Sapnap, and Bad
Only took the role on the DSMP because they talked him into it
Quickly became a fan favorite though
While, towards the beginning of the show, he was able to appear regularly, he became more popular throughout the filming of each episode, working on side projects
The main producer of the show said that they should kill off his character or have him travel away forever so he could drop out of the show entirely to focus on the other things, but the rest of the actors/actresses vehemently opposed, so they kept him, instead, transitioning him to a tertiary character
The cast turned it into a little meme within the show, insisting that his character was 'sleeping through everything'
His favorite scene is definitely one of the ones from the beginning of the show where it felt like he was just hanging out with his friends
c!Sapnap
Also known for action movies "Manhunt" being the most popular, as well as being featured on comedy sketches
When he first became part of the DSMP crew, he was worried to come across as too eager or whatever else so he pulled this 'cool, nonchalant' thing until he became more comfortable around everyone
In fact, he's one of the people who fuck around and try to get people to fudge up their lines (hates when people do it to him though)
Pretty indifferent about attending cast interviews and will only go to them if his friends want him to (or if he's getting a bag for it)
Is the one who has continuously accidentally broken the most props (costumes and scene fixtures included)
His favorite scene was one of the first serious ones: the burning of Ponk's lemon tree, he likes it because the visuals were gorgeous to watch and it was also the catalyst for a lot of things
c!Awesamdude
Originally was known in small acting circles for his more harsh, authoritarian roles (think army generals and the like)
Brought onto the DSMP cast because, while looking for someone to play the role of the prison warden, they needed someone who really had the presence of an authority figure
During a tech rehearsal, he joked that he didn't want to be an intimidating character anymore, and instead, became a kind, lovable figure that helped Tommy in building his hotel (it was only a behind the scenes special but when the fans saw, they loved it and named him Sam Nook)
Because so many people love Sam Nook so much, they added him in a few times as a small side cameo
(Side note: Since the "Manhunt" producers were looking for an additional hunter for the next film, Dream mentioned that Sam would be a perfect fit and he almost immediately got the part)
His favorite scene is the dark, torture one with Ponk only because they were cracking up during it due to the other cast members making faces, jokes, and puns, trying to pull them away from the seriousness of the scene (it took nearly 15 takes)
c!Ponk
He was a lesser known actor before the DSMP, mostly playing secondary characters here and there
Was offered a spot on the show because he knows how to play a realistic and interesting character while not trying to be too overbearing and get more spot light (a lot of his fans wish he would have more screen time anyway though tbh)
He actually is missing an arm, so he's pretty alright with having a bad ass, metallic looking prosthetic one for the show
Genuinely enjoys fan meetups and getting pictures with the people who like both him and his character
His favorite scene is also the same one as Sam's
He thinks it's more funny though because he knows Sam personally and knows that he'd never actually harm anyone
c!BadBoyHalo
Even though he's pretty well versed in acting, he prefers to be an, at the most, secondary character because, even though he is an actor, he doesn't like all of the spot light to be on him (which is one of the reasons he did so well in "Manhunt")
During shootings, he breaks character so easily
When he's recording a scene, he likes striking up conversation with the set workers, asking them about their days and such
While he gets a bit overwhelmed at fan meets, he still enjoys going and tries to meet as many people as he can, taking pictures with them or signing autographs if they ask
He's lowkey one of the people that fans are a bit weary about because there's no fucking way that someone can be that wholesome and kind all the time
His favorite scene is definitely the Red Banquet
While it is a villain scene, the red tint to everything, the amazing special effects, the wonderful acting, and the fun bloopers really made it the most memorable filming experience, and fun on set, he's ever had, plus it's not often that everyone is in the same place at once like that
c!Tommy
He's a young actor who got his start off in comedy programs
He was in a few movies as background characters before he was offered a job to costar a comedy movie with A few highly famous actors (as a result, he was able to make connections)
Before long, he was invited to become a cast member on the DSMP
At first he found it incredibly easy, until the more serious scenes started appearing
He's always done lighthearted shows and movies, so it's hard to looked downtrodden and/or distressed during the L'/Manburg war and Exile Arcs
Almost always gets overexcited during cast interviews and nearly spoils something for the next few episodes (or next season even), he can't help it, he's just so excited
It's incredibly hard for him to choose a favorite scene, but it's either the mountain one where he, Tubbo, and Dream are scaling a mountain side while acting out the intense fight scene (he liked it so much because they were on an actual cliff side in harnesses to make it look more authentic), or the scenes with Pogtopia with the original cast
c!Tubbo
He was a starting out musician with limited acting knowledge before he had an audition for the DSMP
Because of that, he was a bit wobbly at first, but he got acting lessons and a lot of advice from the rest of the crew
Since he is a bit more withdrawn, he uses Tommy as a social crutch during personal interviews (Tommy doesn't mind a bit)
Whenever he's asked about his character, though, he loves to talk about how, as he becomes more corrupt, teetering on the edge of morality, the ram horns become more and more pronounced to draw parallels to Jschlatt's character (an idea he came up with, might he add)
His favorite scene, oddly enough, is the one where his and Tommy's characters are sitting at the bench, listening to music, it was just very calm moment when everything else was messy
c!Wilbur
Was originally only one of the script writers who only had a limited experience with acting, but after the original actor walked out, he took his place in the script readings and everyone unanimously decided that he would be the perfect replacement (better than the original, in fact)
Because it's his first acting gig, he hates when he messes up directions or and fudges lines, and apologizes immediately after they happen
Gets incredibly nervous during fan meetups and cast interviews (especially when it's a one on one kind of deal), but he does very well with interacting with them via social media
He does do a lot for his character though, like taking physical liberties like actually dying a streak in his hair so the makeup team doesn't have to worry about perfectly placing a clip on so it looks consistent with past episodes
His favorite scene is when it's revealed that his character put buttons all over the Pogtoia ravine not only because he could flex his acting skills, but also because he thinks that the prop team and set designers did beautifully (even if he did fall and scrape his legs on pretty much everything in and out of filming)
c!Jschlatt
Even the DSMP, he played a lot of villain roles in movies (either that or he was in comedy shows)
Because he knew what he was doing, as soon as he auditioned for his character's role, the casting directors immediately knew that he was the one for it
Thankfully though, he's a lot more chill than his character counterpart
While he's willing to sit still very morning and let the makeup artists put on his prosthetics for the episode shoots, he refuses to put them on for fan meet ups or cast interviews so he wears a shitty ram horn head band instead (he kinda thinks it's funny tbh)
During interviews, because he has a busy schedule that he likes to keep, he often comes off as a bit abrasive
Even though he wasn't in it, his favorite scene is actually his character's funeral
Nearly every part of that scene was improvised (including the part where Quackity's character eats Schlatt's character's heart) and he loves where everyone went with it, playing it straight at first before derailing it completely into dark humor centric jokes
c!Niki
Before the DSMP, she was acted in various different genres, she also did some model work (someone had to say it and that someone is me), though she does tell people that, before all else, her acting career goes before her modeling one
It's hard for her to get gigs where her character isn't just used as a pretty prop or a damsel in distress, so when she was offered a role for a character with some substance, she jumped at the chance
When she's filming, she behaves very seriously and tries her absolute best to not break character
As appreciation to the staff members who work behind the scenes, she'll sometimes make baked goods and like for them (they have to deal with the actors and actresses behaving like children half the time anyway, so it's a nice gesture)
Her favorite scene is the one where it's revealed that she's worked on a gigantic underground bunker, seeing the downwards spiral of her character to the point where she tries to kill Tommy is really interesting to her
She does also really like the Syndicate arc as a whole and loves when people recognize her as Nemesis
c!Quackity
While you wouldn't be able to tell from his character and the way he comes off as as a result, off set, he's actually incredibly chilled
He's more use to acting dark comedies and cheesy self aware dramas rather than genuine, serious stories
He was contacted to interview for the DSMP through Dream, and when he auditioned, the interviewers absolutely fell in love with his stage presence and he got the part fairly quickly
At first, he was a bit bored at the lack of action in the show, but as the season progressed and more was happening, he had more fun, especially as his character became more and more dark, transferring into an antagonist
He enjoys that he gets a chance to play the suave, manipulative villain role and also likes the rivalry that's building up between his and Wilbur's characters
His favorite scenes are the ones at Las Nevadas, particularly the one where both he and Wilbur's character are fighting over Tommy, he loves the drama of it all
c!Karl Jacobs
He's new to acting, being more interested in the behind the scenes things than being on stage
That being said, because his general extroverted nature, he does a great job at commanding the stage and expressing emotions on the screen
Because he's not too use to acting quite yet, he was incredibly nervous when he was first offered an audition for a specific part in the DSMP, but he ended up doing well and got the part
He loves just being on set and talking with everyone, it's a new experience so he thrives in every moment
His favorite scene is the silly little "Gogtopia" episode, it was a nice, lighthearted thing amidst a lot of angst (heads up: i hc gogtopia as the characters when they were kids building a fake little city, playing pretend, i like to think its where George became interested in being a ruler too)
c!Technoblade
He was originally considered for Sam's role, but they quickly decided that he could pull more of an aloof and chaotic character so they chose a different one, his current one, because it suited his acting style far better
The first time he had to get all of his prosthetic on, he was incredibly antsy, sitting in the chair for multiple hours, however since he and the makeup team have gotten more use to the process, it's not as uncomfortable and time consuming
While he appreciates how many people like his character, he very rarely attends fan meetups or interviews since they stress him out
This is a side note, but while he enjoys acting, he often takes long chunks of time from it so he can get a college degree (he recognizes that, realistically, because he's a famous actor, he won't get a regular job, but he wants the degree anyway)
His favorite scene is a tie between the "Welcome Home Theseus" scene because of the amazing props and the scene where his character kills everyone else's with the firework crossbows
c!Philza
He's been acting for the longest time and has an incredibly long list of accolades (especially for a wildly popular fantasy/adventure series that he stars in)
During the filmings, he's incredibly professional and very rarely cracks during scenes
When the cameras not on him though, he's actually quite silly and cheerful, happily conversing with whoever's around
He leans super hard into the dad vibes too
Will gladly help anyone with their likes, all while making cheesy dad jokes
Absolutely loves meeting fans and goes to any fan meet he's requested to go to
Originally the producers had planned scenes of Phil receiving letters from Wilbur and becoming concerned before he flew off to go check on him, but they decided to scrap that in favor of a surprise introduction for the end of the season
Because of that, that's probably his favorite scene
c!Ranboo
Their not really used to acting all that much, so when they their agent told them that people from the DSMP wanted to get in contact with them about a possible opportunity, they were pleasantly surprised
Since their actually an incredibly chilled out person, playing Ranboo was a bit of a challenge for them at first
Because their character is nervous by nature and thus hunches over a lot in the show, they has to see a chiropractor every other week since the extra stress they put on their back causes them some slight pain
They also had to do some extra training to get the nervous body language and speech patterns down right (they didn't have to, they just wanted to go the extra mile and really prove that they deserve their spot in the show)
Nobody told them that they had to prove themselves in any way, but because they gained popularity so quickly, they feel like they don't deserve it, so their mainly proving it to themself
Their favorite scenes are any of the enderwalk sequences because they think the additional after effects added make it look absolutely amazing (they also like the set design for the panic room)
Slimecicle
Before the DSMP, he was in a lot of comedy shows and campy self aware horror movies and he was able to carve out a little niche for himself (and a bit of a cult following)
He was suppose to be an expository one off character to help introduce Las Nevadas, but he became so popular that he became reoccurring
One of the only characters who doesn't have a set script, they give him a general outline and stage direction, but tell him to improvise with the weird, archaic bullshit his character says (that's why people love him afterall)
His favorite past time on set is trying to make people break during scenes, he's gotten every single cast member at least once as well as tech and makeup crew and he's extremely proud of himself for it
His favorite scene is the one where his character first meets Quackity in Las Nevadas
Michaelmcchill
He was an actor since his early teens, so he's quite the veteran on set
Because of that, he takes his job as an actor seriously, and dislikes when people joke around during their scenes
Behind the scenes though, he cracks jokes with the other actors and actresses and often goes the extra mile to make sure that the younger ones are comfortable
Loves going to fan meetups and gets incredibly excited whenever someone recognizes him from an earlier show
His favorite scene is the one where, in the strip club in Las Nevadas, one by one, Quackity takes him, Bad, and Puffy to the back to rob them
Puffy's lines, while improvised, made him crack up off set
Group Hcs:
While the title of show 'DSMP' stands for something different, it's been a running meme among the crew and fans alike that it stands for "Dream Sapnap M PGeorge"
Small injures and broken props are incredibly common on the film sets to the point where there's three trained medical professionals and a triples of each prop (people get to take the remaining ones home after shoots if they don't need to be used again)
Because Sapnap has broken so many props on accident, Dream made fliers with Sapnap's headshots on them with the words "don't let this menace touch the props" under it
Because of that, Tommy actually has a prop of each music disk and takes them with him during meet and greets, especially the ones where children will be present (Dream, in character, will try to take them before Tommy fends him off with the help of his allies)
Originally the producers were going to choose someone else to play Tubbo's character, but Tommy vetoed their decision and choose Tubbo because their chemistry was perfect (their characters were childhood friends and he clicked immediately with him, so in his eyes, he was the perfect choice)
The polyamourous relationship between Karl, Quackity, and Sapnap's characters weren't actually planned, they were originally jokingly flirting thinking that it wouldn't stay in the final cut, but after it did, they just rolled with it
That being said, they regularly flirt with each other off set and especially in public events for "fan service"
Also, as I'm sure you can guess, the whole flatty patty discourse between Schlatt and Quackity's characters were fully improvised as well
Because Phil was originally suppose to be an already established character before it was scrapped, no one but he and Wilbur knew he was going to be on set, so when he showed up to sink the sword into Wilbur's chest, everyone else's reactions were genuine (side note: the rest of the cast were told the original plan: that wilbur's character was going to blow himself up)
Speaking of Phil, because he's hard to make crack during a scene, a small group of the other actors (Tommy, Wilbur, Techno, and sometimes Tubbo) view it as their mission to make him break and they tally it on a board (Techno is winning since they've known each other the longest)
Phil, Tommy, Techno, and Wilbur actually have a decently popular podcast "Sleepy Bois Inc." where they goof off and talk about whatever that comes to their minds, they'll often invite guests on
Since Tommy is a young actor and Wilbur knows about the dark side to the industry, he keeps a close eye on him, going with him to new casting calls and auditions
One time, during Schlatt's character's villain arc, Quackity replaced his fake whiskey with real whiskey and he, even after he had to take a large swig of it, he continued on (his coughing was genuine that time, especially since he wasn't ready for it to burn his throat)
In Quackity's defense, he thought Schlatt would be surprised and spit it out on camera
The gift card thing was an actual event that happened, someone hid the card on one of the sets and the others raced to find it
There's also an ongoing reverse race among the cast over who takes the longest to get their costumes and prosthetics on, so far Ranboo is in the lead with Technoblade then Jschlatt and Puffy behind them (Schlatt wishes he wasn't so high up on the list)

Every so often I remember it’s canon that c!Tommy had a ghost, and not only that but the ghost apparently never stopped crying and refused to talk to anyone.
That one part where Glatt told c!Quackity that a British guy with a beanie would come down to his gym and a smaller one that sounded exactly like him would be attached to his hip, and he would only cry and repeat, “Dream killed me.”
And how screwed up it is that c!Tommy was still following c!Wilbur around like he did when he was alive because he had nowhere else to go and no one else to turn to.
Do you think we never saw the ghost because he was hiding from everyone? He didn’t want to see the same people who’d hurt him and let him get hurt time and time again.
