RANDOM CHARACTERS FROM THE MEDIA I WATCH WHO REMIND ME OF ASOIAF

→ ALISON PILL as PRINCESS MAUDE (The Pillars of the Earth) as LYSA TULLY ARRYN (YOUNG)

Lysa was a pretty, slender, high-breasted girl in her youth, dimpled and delicate. She has grown thick of body by her early thirties, however, as a result of her many pregnancies, miscarriages and stillbirths.[...] She has the blue eyes of House Tully, but they are pale and watery. Lysa has a small, petulant mouth, and her beautiful auburn hair falls thickly down to her waist.

+ Pill was about 24 when filming this, so this would work for the “early in her marriage to Jon Arryn” to Greyjoy Rebellion period

+ lots of blue/white dresses!

[fangrurin]

BELLA RAMSEY - BIRDY (CATHERINE, CALLED BIRDY)

I finally watched this movie, so I've gotta add Bella Ramsey to my list of Lyanna fancasts. They were 17 during filming but definitely look younger, making them a good fit for Lyanna in the last several years of her life. The film has a medieval English setting, and Birdy wears a wide variety of dresses and hairstyles. She has a mischievous, joyous energy, as well as open determination and defiance.

Lyanna Stark Fancast Resource

"Lyanna is described by a couple of people as beautiful. Though Maester Yandel describes her as "a wild and boyish young thing with none of the Princess Elia's delicate beauty", Kevan Lannister recalls Lyanna having a "wild beauty" about her. According to her brother Eddard Stark, Lyanna had been a child-woman of surpassing loveliness. She was slim of frame. Arya Stark, with her brown hair, long face and grey eyes, resembles Lyanna in appearance, according to Eddard. Margaery Tyrell, also brown of hair, is believed by some to resemble Lyanna, though Eddard disagrees." (x)

Also, though Lyanna is often fancast (fancasted?) as an adult, she was canonically only 16 when she died.

MACKENZIE FOY - CLARA (THE NUTCRACKER AND THE FOUR REALMS)

Mackenzie Foy is probably my favorite fancast for Lyanna. She really fits my mental image of her, including the fiery attitude. Nutcracker and the Four Realms has Victorian fantasy costumes rather than medieval or Renaissance fantasy, but it still works pretty well in my opinion. Mackenzie was roughly 16 during filming.

HAILEE STEINFELD - JULIET (ROMEO & JULIET)

Hailee Steinfeld is one of my favorite fancasts for Lyanna for many of the same reasons I like her for Margaery. She was 16 when filming R&J and has a great mix of sweetness and feistiness in the role. The costume design in the film fits Westerosi fashion well, and there’s a lot of good content since she’s playing the film’s lead.

GEORGIE HENLEY -  LUCY PEVENSIE (PRINCE CASPIAN and THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER)

Georgie was 12/13 when filming Prince Caspian and 14/15 when filming The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. She has plenty of footage great medievalish clothing in both films (although her clothing in the latter is more masculine). I particularly like to use her for content involving Ned, because Skandar Keynes plays her older brother in both films and makes a great Ned.

OLIVIA HUSSEY - JULIET (ROMEO & JULIET)

Another Juliet! Olivia is a common fancast for Lyanna, and I like her as well. She was 15 when she began filming Zeffirelli's Romeo & Juliet. She has several different outfits and plenty of footage.

ANAMARIA VARTOLOMEI - LOUISE ELISABETH (THE ROYAL EXCHANGE)

Anamaria isn't a fancast I've ever personally used, but I love other people's content of her, and I will probably use her at some point in the future. She was roughly 17 when filming The Royal Exchange (titled L'echange des princesses in French), and she's particularly good for content focused on Lyanna's rebellious side, since she just looks so pissed off for so much of the movie.

CASSIDY - SELAH (THE OTHER LAMB)

Raffey is a much more common fancast for Arya, usually using her younger footage from Snow White and the Huntsman, but I like her for Lyanna as well. She doesn't have any explicitly period films as a teenager, but she was roughly 15 when filming The Other Lamb, and if you get a little creative, she still has a usable aesthetic.

ALICIA AGNESON - KATIA (VIKINGS)

Alicia is technically too old for Lyanna, having played Katia at ~24, but I do like her anyway because she just has such a spot-on aesthetic. Be aware that she appeared as a different character earlier in the show, but with blonde hair.

JESSICA BROWN-FINDLAY - ALAIS PELLETIER DU MAS (LABYRINTH)

Also slightly too old, roughly 22 during filming, Jessica is still a fancast I like a lot for Lyanna. She's easy to pair with many Arya fancasts for comparisons, and the costuming for Labyrinth is actually medieval, which can be tough to find.

ADELAIDE KANE - MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS (REIGN)

Adelaide is another one who's too old for Lyanna, being in her 20s during production of Reign, but she's a common fancast and does fit Lyanna's aesthetic well. There's also an abundance of useful footage of her, since she played the lead in a 5-season show set during the Renaissance.

As usual, feel free to add your own! The full set of fancast posts can be found here.

[littlemissmoodswings]

made a "what if rhaenyra had daughters instead of sons" fancast – so now i feel it is only justice to do a "what if alicent had daughters instead of sons" edition.

[ elle fanning as alyssa targaryen. feel like some of her work in the great is very much a fem!aegon vibe. also obligatorily named after vizzy t's mama ]

[ freya allan/hunter schafer as aemma targaryen. viserys is BOUND to name a kid aemma if he had more daughters, i'm convinced. aemma would believe herself visenya reborn.

where freya has the environment/resources to suit a fem aemond, hunter schafer has the looks 1000% ]

[ anya taylor joy as daenaera targaryen. no notes, just felt like daeron had to be looped in here as the 3rd son ]

Fiercely loyal, resourceful, and compassionate but also deeply guarded due to her traumatic past, Pidge carries a quiet strength, expressing herself more through action than words.

Skills and Abilities:

Preferred weapon(s): Sniper rifle

Fighting style: Strong foundation in hand-to-hand combat and situational awareness.

Survival Instincts: Her experience surviving extreme hardships as a child honed her ability to adapt to unpredictable situations. Relies on quick reflexes, creativity, and unconventional tactics.

Boxing and Kickboxing: Uses sharp, deliberate punches and low, sweeping kicks to destabilize opponents.

Krav Maga Influence: Practical techniques aimed at disarming, disabling, or neutralizing threats efficiently.

Focus on Pressure Points: Targets vulnerable areas like the throat, knees, and ribs for maximum impact.

Personality:

Myers Briggs Type: ISFJ (The Defender) Pidge is naturally reserved and introspective, often communicating more through her actions than words. She tends to keep her emotions and thoughts private, relying on a small circle of trusted individuals. She can also be highly detail-oriented, practical and grounded, focusing on the present moment and the tangible realities of her missions. Her sharp observational skills allow her to read her environment and the people around her with precision.

Deeply empathetic and loyal: prioritizes the well-being of her loved ones and teammates. Her moral compass is strong, guiding her decisions and actions even in the harshest circumstances. She shows compassion, particularly towards vulnerable individuals like young children.

Adaptable Under Pressure: Although she prefers structure, her military training and survival instincts enable her to remain calm and resourceful in unpredictable situations.

Negative Traits:

Emotional Guardedness/Struggles with Vulnerability: Pidge often hides her deeper emotions, fearing judgment or being perceived as weak.

Difficulty Asking for Help: Her self-reliance sometimes prevents her from seeking support, leading to unnecessary stress or burnout.

Stubbornness: While her determination is usually a strength, it can turn into inflexibility, causing her to push herself or others too hard.

Residual Trauma: Due to her traumatic past, Pidge is constantly on edge, always scanning for potential threats. While this is useful in her line of work, it can also prevent her from fully relaxing or enjoying peaceful moments.

Tendency to Bottle Emotions: When she suppresses her feelings for too long, Pidge might have sudden emotional outbursts, which can catch others off guard. She tends to internalize negative emotions, letting them fester rather than addressing them head-on.

Background Story:

Born in a small village in Mexico, Xochitl’s early years were marked by tragedy and hardship. With her hometown overrun by rising cartels, she was caught in the crossfire of many rival gangs, taken by a human trafficking ring and was subjected to unimaginable abuse. As part of an underground fighting ring, Xochitl was forced to fight and survive, her combat skills sharpened at the cost of the many young lives she had to fight against.

The underground fighting ring turned children into killers. Every week, the cartel ran gambling rings on their "fighters"—children pitted against one another to the death. Xochitl learned quickly. The first fight nearly killed her, but the desire to survive burned brighter than the fear. At 16, she was rescued during a military operation led by John Price. Upon reaching the base of operations, it was unusually quiet. Price's team managed to find a cell filled with young girls, many of them weak and afraid, but still alive. With no sign of any cartel members, Price found it unusual, and went to investigate, only to find a horrific sight before him. Inside one of the darker cells, was the silhouette of a young woman, drenched and sitting in a pool of blood with the bodies of 4 cartel members surrounding her. With her back turned to him, he approached her quietly, but was met with a pair of jade green eyes, wide and seemingly cutting through the darkness. With heavy and ragged breaths, she revealed her name. Xochitl. After sitting with her for a few minutes, Price managed to gain her trust, freeing her from the house of horrors she grew fighting in. Price was baffled to see someone so young manage to take down 4 grown men on her own, saving the other young girls in the process. To him, she wasn't a monster. She was a hero. A fighter.

Though physically free, Xochitl struggled to trust others and rarely spoke. With no information on her family, Price took her under his wing instead of having her placed in some horrid orphanage, until she was 18, eventually joining the Mexican Special Forces (Fuerzas Especiales), under the guide of Colonel Alejandro Vargas, earning recognition for her unmatched skill set and loyalty.

After 10 years, Xochitl became a formidable member of the Mexican Special Forces, reaching the ranks of sergeant. Her jade eyes continue to carry the many lives she had taken all those years ago. With her expertise behind the scope and her close combat skills, she keeps her team safe by keeping a keen watch from above. As the events in Las Almas, Mexico unfold, Xochitl becomes a close ally to Ghost and Soap, earning mutual respect from each other. With her intimidating silence and quiet movements through the shadows, it wasn't long until Ghost began to grow intrigued by her sheer determination.

Trivia:

According to Captain Price, Xochitl had often prayed to God as a child, asking to be turned into a bird so she could fly far away, thus earning her the name "Pidge."

Price has also stated that she was quite the troublemaker, oftentimes getting into trouble and even having to bail her out of a Mexican Prison

True to her callsign, Pidge has an uncanny habit of finding high vantage points (trees, high rise buildings, etc.) whether in combat or just to think.

Pidge is terrified of severe storms, a result of her traumatic childhood. She also has an irrational fear of moths.

Pidge is afraid to close her eyes in the shower.

Pidge sometimes plays guitar and sings, but does it in private.

Pidge has an uncanny ability to fall asleep anywhere, no matter how uncomfortable it may seem.

Before every mission, she silently prays for her teams safety while holding her cross necklace.

Notable Quotes:

"Sometimes, all we need is a little freedom to soar."

"A bird in a cage is still a bird, but one that fights to fly... that's me."

"I’ve faced monsters before. They taught me how to be one—but I choose not to be."

[cleromancy]

one thing i think people miss when trying to nail down the like nitty gritty of like-- okay. so post-crisis post-resurrection Jason's a hypocrite, right? and hes purposely fancast himself as the villain opposite bruce in utrh.

but also even while Jason's doing this he *has a point,* and he *knows it.* Jasons got a lot of big moral ideas hes spouting, and from what we see, he mostly only abides by *some* of them. so while you're like acknowledging that utrh/lost days jay is motivated by his emotions and doesn't act in ways that align with his moral principles, but also he *keeps bringing **up** those moral principles*, you start to wonder like. What the hell is going on in that big brain of yours jay.

and what i was getting at. the thing i think most people miss or forget when exploring that. is jasons appearance in outsiders 2003.

im looking through the tpb so im not giving you the exact issue numbers for any of these panels sorry but its 44-46 plus the annual.

but here is the crux of the matter:

cutting for length!!

so whats going on here in outsiders! is that black lightning, aka Jefferson pierce, aka anissa pierces dad and one of the few really good dads in the dcu, got (basically) framed for murder by deathstroke; believed he (accidentally) actually did the murder; eventually turned himself in to serve his time in prison.

jason happens across this information entirely by accident, and goes out of his way to deliver that information to dickie, who has an on-again off-again relationship with being the leader of the outsiders at this point in time. and im just going to post a lot of it, both bc i like it and also so you see what Jason was going against JUST TO DELIVER THIS INFORMATION:

skipping the first page to save images but jason asks dick to meet up with him in Gotham; the next pages:

im skipping a bit of really enjoyable fighting after that as well but pls know its there. jason asked dick to meet up and dick fully said okay ill come to your rendez-vous *just* to beat the shit out of you. and he was so valid for that. but this aint about him so lets get back to jason:

why does jason bring this up + how does Jason come by this information? well

ok. now youre as caught up as dick is.

some times fools and jackanapes say to me. but sisky why would jason do this and bring this information to dick. why would he try to break black lightning out of prison. why would he do such a thing when he is a known knave, neer do well, scoundrel, etc. to which i say HE TOLD YOU!!! HE TOLD YOU WHY HE DID IT

JASON FUCKING VALUES THE *GOOD GUYS.*

(and also sidenote. winick is writing this so we have to assume he knows how competent and resourceful jason can be bc... as the guy who defined the character after his resurrection... he *made him that way.* so based on utrh we have to assume both that 1) jason could have pulled this prison break off solo and 2) jason *knows* he could pull it off solo...

but he also knows he's a Bad Guy now, and he realizes that *if* he sprung black lightning hed just fucking! turn himself back in! so jadon needs to convince some big goddamn heroes to do it....

so he goes to dick.)

((and also secondary sidenote. willis todd canoncially spent enough time in and out of prison that jason assumed hed wound up back there without telling him or catherine before she died and jason wound up squatting, and he only found out otherwise when he read the entry on the batcomputer on two-face.))

the point is. jason has a *lot* of moral ideas he is not, at this point in time, capable of living by for a variety of Jason Reasons, ill do more meta on that some other time. so he's inhabiting the bad guy role, but sometimes he keeps slipping and falling and accidentally caring about things, and...

god damn it dick, black lightning is one of the *good* guys. like *you're* one of the good guys. aren't you going to fucking help him??

i will probably elaborate on this more in the future as well. i just need to hit send rn LOL

RANDOM CHARACTERS FROM THE MEDIA I WATCH WHO REMIND ME OF ASOIAF 

→  KAITLYN DEVER as ROSALINE CAPULET (Rosaline) as MARGAERY TYRELL

“ Margaery has thick, softly curling brown hair and large brown eyes. She has a slender but womanly figure with smooth and unblemished pale skin and small breasts. Margaery is fair and lively, with a shy and sweet smile. She is regarded as beautiful or pretty by most.”

+ Kaitlyn’s Rosaline has the requisite long, curly brown hair, dark eyes, and sweet smile

+ Rosaline doesn’t wear a ton of green/gold, but she wears a lot of red Renaissance Italy red/gold, which could work for Lannister-aligned graphics

+ She is older than Margaery would be (she filmed this at ~24) but reads young

+ Rosaline is a comedy so you might end up with goofy gifs. 

[seasonofscreams]

Until Dawn Fan Cast

Wanted to throw my hat into the ring of fan casting the new Until Dawn movie.

SPOILERS FOR UNTIL DAWN BELOW

(also just assume there might be bl**d & g*re depicted below)

I wouldn't be surprised if Kathryn Newton becomes the new scream queen so it makes sense for her to follow in Hayden Panettiere's steps. She was brilliantly versatile as her two characters in Freaky & has a natural charisma that would be great for Sam whose all-rounder character could fall flat in another actor's hands. Pretty much everyone agrees on Sam being one of the few left alive if not the Final Girl & I think Newton would excel in the role.

Mike is pretty conventional as a Final Guy - objectively attractive, resourceful alongside headstrong with a funny side. Tom Blyth displays these traits himself in his portrayal of the younger Coriolanus Snow in The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes as well as a charisma that had many a watcher rooting for him despite portraying one of the most evil characters in The Hunger Games franchise. It would be interesting to see him tackle the complexities of Mike and even more fun to see him engage in the action scenes sure to be in the movie.

I never got into Stranger Things but from the limited amount I've seen Caleb McLaughlin is one of the best actors in the show. Matt is a contradiction to his own trope. He's a jock who is insecure in his relationship with Emily compared to how she feels about her ex, Mike, but also potentially wants to be seen as the hero. There's very much parallels that can be drawn between Lucas and Matt as well as enough differences and it would be really interesting to see how he would tackle the role.

Olivia Rodrigo is most famous for her music but her acting turns (admittedly in Disney & mv's, yes) have always been received pretty well. Emily is a hard character to cast especially when comparing to original actor Nichole Sakura since Emily is smart and resourceful whilst being blunt and - for a lack of a better word - wonderfully bitchy. There's a certain aura within the SNL performance for all-american bitch and music video of bad idea right? that gave me this feeling i can't shake that i want to see Rodrigo as the likely other Final Girl (I hope Emily survives to the end alongside Sam).

When Sweeney (as Cassie) was hiding in the bathroom in Euphoria, many people were desperate to see how she would fare in a traditional horror film - she plays terror great! maybe it's cheating to fancast her as Jess since she's played a promiscuously perceived blonde 'home-coming queen' type before but... if it ain't broke. I can't see a more perfect Jess to be honest.

according to luckyleftie on tiktok, Ashley's original horror trope was that of the stoner, rather than the academic - which clarifies the origins of the anxiety her character exhibits throughout. Personally, I'd love if they explored this in the film more (it's gonna be rated R after all). Sophia Lillis proved herself in the horror genre as Young Beverly in IT (2017) and would be really fun in the inquisitive/conclusion jumping Ashley. (Also I think she does resemble Ashley/Galadriel Stineman but that may just be me).

(Chris is deffo dying when Ashley doesn't let him into the house it's too potentially big of a scene to not do so) Tony Revolori is a funny actor and as self-proclaimed comedian of the group, I'd love to see his interpretation of Chris who pines after Ashley as well as how he could potentially approach the investigative chapter during Josh's 'prank.' Plus I loved him in Scream and wish we'd seen more screen time of him playing in the horror film.

Have you seen Hereditary? Point made.

in all seriousness, Alex Wolff is talented and plays awkward, yet charming alongside disturbed characters amazingly. Josh is quite an awkward guy ('party like p*rnstars' anyone?) and dealing with rapidly declining mental health as well as grief from his sisters' disappearance. Josh is a very complicated character whose actions cannot be justified but mental health cannot be ignored. Wolff could be a fantastic choice - especially if the mental health representation through Josh was updated with more advice and guidance from professionals.

If you made it this far, thank you for reading!! I'd love to hear if you agree (but pls don't be rude about it i put a lot of time into these edits/fancasting choices/individually crediting where i got the photos so if you hate it pls just move on) :)
