I hate my brain. @honorhearted well kinda. /j

It’d technically have to be modern verse cause Audrey physically can’t have children, at least, not before 1910. (See: Nicole de Lioncourt who she parents as a single parent but is sometimes adopted by Lestat out of pity).

Here’s Nicole!

But for funsies. Here’s Audrey’s and Benjamin Tallmadge’s extremely theoretical children.

( @honorhearted )

1782 and 1796, probably.

Angelique “Anna or Anne” Désirée Tallmadge - 1782.

Gender: female (probably inheriting her mothers lack of regard for such notions when she’s older).

Personality: charming, scholarly, persistent, a touch pretentious, and well dressed.

Special Talents: poetry especially prose, lying (affectionate), winning arguments, and being obnoxiously persistent.

Who they like better: Ben, shockingly, she doesn’t understand Audrey’s utter perceived cynicism and want to “keep her safe” she sees it as keeping her from doing anything useful. In Audrey’s defence, she, like Audrey is a first daughter, born 1782. Luckily didn’t inherit her parents much trauma.

Personal Headcanon: really wants to be like papa, but just isn’t, save for appearance.

Face Claim: Saoirse Ronan.

Nathan Achille Tallmadge - 1796.

Gender: male.

Personality: well dressed, good liar (not as good as his sister), persistent to a fault, overly optimistic, some cruel people might say overly sensitive, cautious, and understanding, good heart, loves too hard.

Special Talents: poetry but the rhythm sort, lying (affectionate), politics (shockingly), sword play and rifle shooting.

Who they like better: Audrey, he’s scared to take after his father and end up with his same… heavy emotional baggage. Granted, he’s not very good at seeing and sympathizing with his mothers trauma, she does well to hide it. From most.

Personal headcanon: Phillip Hamilton move over, you’ve got dandy poet competition!

Face Claim: Aneurin Barnard

i know nothing about 1899 except that aneurin barnard was there, but i've heard of the cancellation and i'm sorry for you <3 this extremely capitalistic culture of any tv show getting cancelled after just one season if they don't get the same ratings of a MCU production is insane

Aw, thank you for your message. <3

And yeah, I totally agree. Especially in this case. See, the thing that makes me so *froths at the mouth* about this is how arbitrary and dumb it all sounds.

Like. 1899 was being written by Baran bo Odar and Jantje Friese, the same people behind Dark. Remember how I used to (and still do) wax poetics about that? XD Anyway, like Dark, it was also shaping up to be a complex mystery show with a gloomy atmosphere, well-placed mythological references galore, and morally ambiguous characters who made questionable life choices and whose stories were probably going to be revealed little by little. So, Netflix basically already had proof that a show like this made by these people could succeed before they even began releasing the episodes, right? And when they actually did release the episodes? 1899 stayed in their top ten shows for weeks. People immediately started posting comments, analyses, theories, fanworks. They were engaging with it and clearly wanted more. And official reviews were generally great, too! Like, "this is one of the best shows of 2022, can we have more German stuff plz" great!

And yeah, this show was a lot more slowburn than Dark had been. And some people didn't like that, I guess. Personally, by the end of the first (and now, only) season I wasn't even entirely sure I could trust anything the characters and the narration had said about themselves anymore... or that I'd even had exactly the firmest grasp on either of them through the whole thing, lol. But that very obviously wasn't the result of screenwriters trying to outsmart the audience and keep us in the dark as much as possible for randomness!!!1 shock value!!!1, it was clearly setting up something much bigger that needed a slow, careful build-up and trusting the audience to have the patience to see it done properly -- the amount of detail and care put into it was honestly insane, and I and many others were more than willing to see all the puzzles pieces be put in their respective places one by one. Because, hey, surprisingly enough sometimes audiences like being trusted instead of being hit over the head with a big sign saying Viewers Are Morons and/or wowed with shiny but empty spectacles and "witty" quotable one-liners!

And yeah, okay, it was probably a lot more expensive than Dark had been, too. But... had the execs at Netflix really not taken that into consideration BEFORE okay-ing the entire project?! There were characters of... what, six different nationalities? All played by actors of those nationalities to make sure their portrayal was accurate? All followed by people whose entire job was making sure the dialogue they were going to be handed in their different native languages was accurate and not stilted, awkward garbage?! And that's without even counting The Volume, the technology they were using to film scenes set on the ship's deck and at sea to make everything feel more realistic, which was the same thing used on HOTD to film flights on dragonback and apparently worked well enough to make some of the actors actually sea-sick during their first scenes with it. I mean... did nobody at all look at all that before shooting started, check the numbers, and go, "wait, no, actually we are not willing to spend that much money on an international series/scifi series/original project that's not an adaptation or a sequel to anything/something that most likely won't start any trends on TikTok or get any outraged kids screaming on Twitter, so how about you tone it down a little"?

Seriously... why give your audience a taste of something so creative and well-crafted only to yank it away because, whoops, you didn't really take enough time to think about it and understand that what you had on your hands wasn't actually the kind of thing you wanted? Why take two people who had already proven their skill and their passion (and likely also their willingness to actually treat their cast and crew well, given that one of the actors from Dark agreed to work with them again in 1899 and others publicly showed their support for the new series) and then pull the rug from underneath their feet? And that's not even counting what a great time the rest of the cast and crew all seemed to be having from the interviews and the behind the scenes stuff...

I guess what stings the most -- besides, you know, being left hanging on a cliffhanger that was obviously going to lead to a much bigger mystery that for once I could actually be pretty confident would get a satisfying resolution while interrogating human nature itself in fascinating ways while getting there XD -- is that people like that, ready to come up with big, fun, interesting ideas like that and to assemble great casts and crews like that, giving plenty of talented and hard-working people their time to shine on such amazing and heartfelt works, don't exactly get Big American Platform Able To Pick Up Or Drop International Projects On A Whim budgets every day. And when they do, and they're even lucky enough to get it a second time... they get discarded, apparently. Tossed away regardless of their talent, passion, great ideas, good relationships with their colleagues and respect for their public. Right in the middle of creating something else that could have turned out to be wonderful.

... and then people like me, who'd love nothing more than to stick with them to the end and fawn over them after seeing them stick the landing again, are left with truncated stories that will never give them the satisfaction of a good ending (how rare have those become, anyway?) and the grim knowledge that they probably won't see anything else like that in a long, long time. Because "anything else like that" won't likely get picked up by the people with the money needed to give it the shape it deserves, or even if it does, it will be picked up and then someone will go, "whoops, didn't think this through, sorry, let's pretend that just didn't happen!"

Sorry for the rant, I really did appreciate this message. I guess this whole vent *gestures upwards* had been building up, too. XD

Hi! I was wondering about those 1899 cast photos that you posted recently (the three leads + the little boy, and the four Danes) -- do you know where those photos are from? In any case, thanks for sharing them -- they're great!

I got them from an Instagram fan page called @/1899netflix. Aneurin shared the post in his story that's how I found them. The actors were shot by Lorenzo Agius ! He also did portraits of the cast, they are available on his website but I cannot find the exact shoot from my post on it ! Hope this helps :)

Aneurin Barnard Joins Doctor Who Series 14

Aneurin Barnard Joins #DoctorWho Series 14

Aneurin Barnard is joining the cast of Doctor Who Series 14, playing “the mysterious” Roger ap Gwilliam. Well, the BBC calls him mysterious. Fans watching on-location shooting in Wales spotted posters of Barnard as Gwilliam, an MP for the fictional Albion party. Its slogan is “For a bigger, better and bolder Britain.” And that does seem to echo the political campaigns of a few right-wing…

[buck-yyyy]

Glamour Magazine Photoshoot with Aneurin Barnard - February 2012 

Part 1/3

[officialleotolstoy]

When you were reading W&P, which version of the characters were you seeing in your head? Or which do you usually picture first and foremost when talking about them? I see the bbc cast but comet anatole. lucas steele is too distinctive

Ooh this is a really good question! Also thank you for sending me random asks I really love when people do that :) I guess I’ll go through each character and explain how I see them. For the most part, I developed my own ideas of them in my head (some of which completely contradict canon but it’s about the ✨vibes✨) but they’re mostly based on the Comet actors since that was my introduction to the characters. However, even if I see a character as super close to the actor, it won’t be exactly the same cause then I just feel like I’m mentally writing RPF of the actor

It also changes based on the time in the book (ex: Dolokhov in my head doesn’t have a beard in 1805 but he does in 1812) and if I’m talking about one canon specifically (ie Comet canon) my mind will tend to use the actors from that adaptation, so I’ll just describe how I see them when I think about/read the book

Pierre

He’s like a bigger, rounder version of Josh Groban with lighter hair and less beard? His features are softer as well. I suppose you could say it’s Fat Josh Groban with a dash of Paul Dano, but he definitely doesn’t look as young and innocent as Paul Dano does, nor does he look as old and tortured as Josh Groban.

Andrei

Andrei is one of the characters I mostly developed my own look for, since he wasn’t really in Comet and I didn’t watch the BBC until after I read the book. He’s fairly sharp featured, he has slightly darker hair than Pierre does, and he! Is! Shorter! Than! Pierre! He never gets any facial hair in my head.

Marya

She’s one of the few who looks nothing like her Comet counterpart in my head. She has hair the same color as Andrei’s (a medium brown) and obviously her eyes are her best feature. I could see her with light freckles. She’s got a very average body type/height, maybe a little on the short side.

Natasha

Her appearance changes SO much in my head, often she looks like a younger Denée Benton, but sometimes she’s white and looks pretty much like her book description. It depends on how deeply Denée’s performance is rooted in my brain at the moment tbh. If the moment I’m thinking of is closer to Comet canon/happens in the Comet part, it’s more likely to look like her. She never looks like Lily James though lol

Sonya

She looks pretty much like a younger Brittain Ashford in terms of hair and eye color, although her face shape is pretty different. Her features are smaller and softer, and her hair is a little darker. I think she’s also taller.

Vera

I love her so much. I gotta write a post on that one day. Anyway, she has long dark hair and expressive eyes. She has the sharpest features out of any of the Rostovs and she’s pretty in a kinda scary way. She’s also tall and stares down her nose at people a lot.

Nikolai

This is just completely off the book canon, but he’s completely clean-shaven and blonde. The reason for this is that prior to this book, the only Nikolai I knew was Nikolai Lantsov from the Grisha Trilogy (💖) and their appearances sort of collided. I think he’d get freckles in the summer. He’s kinda tall.

Hélène

She looks mostly like Tuppence Middleton cause I’m a simp. But I think she’s probably taller and younger and her features are slightly more angular? I’m not sure how to describe it.

Anatole

You’re absolutely right he just looks like a more handsome version of Lucas Steele (no offense Lucas). Every person I’ve ever talked to about this has agreed that Lucas’s look is too distinct and just like. Intrinsically tied to Anatole. Anatole without stupid spiky blonde hair is just Not Anatole.

Dolokhov

I do NOT care what the book canon says, in NO universe is Dolokhov blonde. He’s got really dark hair and his iconic blue eyes 💎👄 💎 although sometimes they’re sort of gray in my head, I couldn’t explain that to you. I will die on the hill that Dolokhov is the shortest member of the Garbage Gang (him, Anatole, and Hélène). He’s only an inch shorter than Anatole but he’s like 2 or 3 inches shorter than Hélène and he’s perpetually annoyed about that. Like I said above, he’s sometimes bearded in 1812 but mostly not before that. I’m very bad at picturing people with facial hair.

Boris

To be honest, now I mostly just see Aneurin Barnard cause I think he has the right vibes, but I think my mental Boris had straight hair? And it was lighter. Also, he’s short.

Denisov

I don’t wanna leave him out because he’s a king but I don’t have a super distinctive image of him. He’s got black hair though and sometimes a mustache. He’s kinda short and stocky but also Shaped Like A Fghriend. He has kinda big eyes?

Thanks for asking, sorry I rambled and if there are any characters I missed that you’re curious about feel free to shoot me another ask :D

[chrryblssmninja]

The show's international cast includes Emily Beecham, Aneurin Barnard, Andreas Pietschmann, Miguel Bernardeau, Maciej Musial, Lucas Lynggaard Tonnesen, Rosalie Craig, Clara Rosager, Maria Erwolter, Yann Gael, Mathilde Ollivier, José Pimentao, Isabella Wei, Gabby Wong, Jonas Bloquet, Fflyn Edwards, Alexandre Willaume and Anton Lesser, among others. All the actors will speak in their mother tongue in the series, which was conceived from the start as a multi-lingual drama.

Emily Beecham Discusses New Mystery Series 1899 From The Creators Of Dark – Exclusive Interview

"On set, all of the actors can speak English, so the predominant language is English," she says. "It’s so amazing to hear the read-through, it sounded quite beautiful and to hear the characters interacting, or struggling to. It brings a really interesting feel to it." Any temptation to dust off language skills of her own? "Alas, I’m quite rubbish! I’ve been learning German, but everybody speaks good English! I'll pretend to myself that I can actually speak it better than I can, but I do really want to put time into learning it."

1899 also offers her the opportunity to work with some very new technology, with the show's creators spearheading the construction of a giant LED Volume of the sort that has been used for series such as The Mandalorian. According to Beecham, it offers a new layer of reality to the job. "We’re shooting on a ship and it gives you seasickness. Well, not that bad, but you get that feeling like you’re moving, which is so useful. It’s like being in a virtual reality world, that stage, like a giant playground, it’s fun!" It's also highly adaptable, and made for a big change in the shooting schedule: "The entire set can rotate. Because to change the camera angle, you can’t move the giant LED screens, so the set moves instead, and it’s very quick, so in between takes normally you wait hours to change everything and here you have none of that, it just moves. The first time I went on it, it felt like a stage, but you soon get rid of that because stage acting is very different. It’s quite nice, it feels like a stage in the best way."

The team also shot plenty of footage on the ocean, and have built a significant physical set for their crucial location – the ship – at the Babelsberg facility. It has been an exhaustive prep process.

“You literally take post-production and make it pre-production,” Odar adds. “Everything has to be decided beforehand, you have to create it, build it, so it’s all ready to shoot in camera. You don’t use any green screen, ideally. I hate green screen, you need so much imagination, and the actors do too. Having it [the location] already on set is a big benefit. And then in the editing you already have it all there.”

To me Dunkirk is more about the experience than about what happens in it. I love following the 3 different stories and seeing how they join in the end. I’m really into the cinematography, I love the plane shots. I think the soundtrack is amazing and unlike anything I’ve heard in any other movie, and I think it matches perfectly with the vibe. There’s a scene where they are getting people on the boat and the music is building up. You can see there’s oil on the water and when Farrier (Tom Hardy) finally shoots the plane down it falls on the oil and the music stops as it goes up in flames. There’s this scene where Collins (Jack) gets trapped in his plane as it’s sinking and at the same time we see Tommy (Fionn Whitehead), Gibson (Aneurin Barnard), Alex (Harry) and others inside a boat while they’re getting shot at, and the way you go back and forth between both adds so much tension in my opinion. From what I gather people are either obsessed with it and think it’s a masterpiece or hate it and think it’s boring

Okay so I am in between because I do see the masterpiece vibes and I love the soundtrack like it’s on my phone and I will randomly listen to it in the car BUT I can’t stay awake through it. I should watch in the morning maybe.
