RIP Jett Slater you would’ve loved blasting JOYRIDE by Kesha with the sole intent of bugging Leon (and Nikolai too tbh)

Oh, great goddess of Fancasting, I did A Thing

*should be doing nanowrimo things*

*is doing this instead*

Okay, keeping in with my theme of actors of Greek descent:

Marina Sirtis as Demeter (I love her voice 5ever and she has the poise of a goddess)

Ariel Winter as Persephone (She’s young but I feel as if she might be able to look like a maiden and a… matron? Seph doesn’t have any kids in the book so idk if she’s technically a matron. But ‘innocent and young’ and then ‘mature and stern’ is what I’m going for. The more I look at her face the more I think “Yes. This is Persephone.” She’s also quite curvy which I feel is nice in a world of actresses who are normally impossibly thin.)

Theo James is part Greek? Maybe he can play Hades. (He does have a dreamy romance-lead kind of face. I’m trying to imagine him with the hair… and I have seen him do “stern, forceful guy well” sooo…)

Chris Sarandon as Zeus PLEASE (that voice, that poise. He NEEDS to be the king of the gods)

Elizabeth Perkins as Hera

Maybe Dave Bautista as Ares? (he’s a hulking dude who used to pretend to hurt people for a living, why not let him do it as the god of war? Lol)

Maybe Maria Kanellis as Eris? (I feel like she has really intense eyes, good for playing a batshit character)

Olympia Dukakis as Nyx, PLEASE

For Hecate: Elena Kampouris as her maiden aspect, Lindsay Hartley as the mother, maybe Marilu Henner as the crone (I don’t want to insult her by using the word ‘crone’. I’m sorry honey, you’re beautiful)

Zoe Kazan as Artemis

Athena Karkanis as Athena (I did not pick her for the role because of her name, I took one look at her face and went “YES. SHE IS THE GODDESS OF WISDOM.” and then read her name and died of laughter for a moment before putting her on the list. Ohhhh, Providence.)

Jason Mantzoukas or Demetri Martin as Hermes (I can’t remember how sassy he was in the book. If sass is high, one of these lovely goons)

Maybe Tracy Spiridakos as Minthe?

Costas Mandylor as that king that Demeter helps (I’m blanking on names I read it so long ago.)

Rita Wilson as his wife

David Mazouz as Triptolemus (Not sure if he’s too young)

I was thinking maybe Billy Zane as Sisyphus since he plays a schmoozy bad guy very well

Me as Alekto (When do I audition? Where do I sign? Lol)

I honestly can’t figure out someone for Thanatos or Morpheus, there appears to be a dearth of young actors of Greek descent.

Anyway, @therkalexander, this is the fancasting I have procrastonated for wayyyy too long on. Also, I can’t tweet it at your lovely producer since I don’t have a twitter so…

What’s her address? I’ll send it by carrier pigeon.
