The Casting of Dahmer Films
"Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story" (2022) is perhaps best-remembered for casting Evan Peters in the titular role; a casting choice that, while Peters was obviously primed for with his early work in "An American Crime" (2007) and award-winning appearances in "American Horror Story" (2011-), many thought of as out of character, with most only remembering him as Quicksilver in "X-Men: Days of Future Past" (2014) and its subsequent sequels. However, this isn't the first time that an actor that portrayed Jeffery Dahmer went on to play a Marvel superhero! While Jeremy Renner, who most know as Hawkeye from the MCU, had been in a handful of films prior, it was only once he starred in "Dahmer" (2002) that he'd quit having to work as a makeup artist just to make ends meet! Quite a coincidence, but still not as strange as casting Ross Lynch, Austin of "Austin & Ally" (2011-2016) and Brady of the Teen Beach Movie duology, as the titular character of "My Friend Dahmer" (2017), an adaptation of the graphic novel memoir of the same name. As of this posting, Jeremy Renner's portrayal is free on Tubi, Ross Lynch's portrayal is free on Tubi, but Evan Peter's portrayal in the Netflix series will still require a subscription... unless you know where to go!
Another find!

I have never seen an episode of Hannah Montana, I am so old I was about to graduate grade ten by the time the series premiered, and I absolutely, 100% could not correctly identify Miley Cyrus out of a line-up of any assortment of brown-haired or blonde-bewigged people you care to compile. But East Northumberland High is an absolute banger. I've carried it with me from computer to computer and iPod to iPod ever since I first heard it as part of the Dance-Dance-Revolution-style cheerleader minigame in a now totally-forgotten LucasArts Rollercoaster Tycoon rip-off by the name of Thrillville: Off the Rails. East Northumberland High was a banger in 2007, it is a banger now, and I often wonder if the good people of Brighton, Ontario ever think about the fact that the 19 Teens Choice award-winning voice of Mainframe in Guardian of the Galaxy 2 once sang a song about how their crummy high school arrests students' emotional and social development.
#hannah montana#miley cyrus#LucasArts#Thrillville#rollercoaster tycoon#DDR#dance dance revolution#brighton#ontario#Guardian of the Galaxy 2#MCU#East Northumberland High#yes I still have an ipod it can't bother me with notifications texts and telephone calls like a hateul smart phone#and I retain copies of all my music#I'm not a idiot streaming cuck who will one day wake up to discover a corporation erased half my music for a tax break#which is a real possibility you all are now facing fyi#the residuals problem affecting film and television will also affect music eventually#capitalism and rapacious corporate greed demand it#anyway East Northumberland High kicks ass go listen to it
