#really doug jones is the only one who could play zant

[somer-writes]

IM SORRY DID YOU CALL BEEF MUSCLE MAN SHAYNE TOPP A TWINK??? tommy is a twink! (also tommy as link would be hysterical)

i think that kid thats in the percy jackson series could make a funny link. or like tom holland.

i think zendaya or elsie fischer could be good zeldas.

dave bautista for man ganon (manon) 110%.

i would say mark hamill for pig ganon and matt mercer for demise.

full agree on blm playing all the tingles.

i think cameos could be done by brian david gilbert. also if they found somewhere to put in anna kendrick or ryan gosling

jk simmons or val kilmer as heros shade. both intimidating but can be cozy

mia goth would do a good young impa. michelle yeoh could also be a good impa.

tilda swinton as ghirahim, 'nuff said.

ben schwartz as yuuga

danny devito as kohga, justin long as a yiga foot soldier. john cena as the big yiga guys

i hate martin short so not him but someone like him for beedle

brenda song for purah? ke huy quan as the cucco guy. stephanie hsu as paya.

doug jones as zant

jeff bridges as the king

trixie mattel, latrice royale, ben de la creme as great fairies

maria taylor and cari champion as gerudo warriors. maybe also like bob the drag queen

ralph fiennes as the horse god

cast a legend of zelda live action movie

I saw this as I sat down at my desk at work and out loud said “oh noooooooooo”. It was a giddy oh no though.

So I was thinking of like who to cast for who by like age cause well, wanna stay true but shit if there wasn’t anyone with right look… so I said fuck it. No pics because I can’t get anything to load on my phone. I work in a blackhole for cell service send help

So for Link, maybe Shayne Topp. He has the right body type and look (twink, non derogatory). He’s a shorty like Link, overall decent fit.

For Zelda, maybe Sabrina Carpenter. I think she also fits the look but definitely more BOTW Zelda vibes. Or Dove Cameron.

For Ganondorf, personally I’d say CGI that man 100% and throw Matt Mercer at his voice again LOL If I had to choose a person though… Dwayne Johnson or Dave Bautista. Both have the ability to pull the right aura and while both have good comedy chops, I bet they’d pull off the haughty, king of the desert vibe really well. I threw Bautista in as well because he showed a lot depth with Drax (even if Drax was mostly goofy).

Now for Ganon, the pig/Calamity/Etc, absolutely CGI that into the coolest shit and get Matt Mercer for the voice. Done. DONE.

For Impa, it depends on which version of Zelda they’re doing. If it’s anything other than BOTW/TOTK, then someone who can pull both intimidating and soft would be a good fit. Zoe Saldana would be a good fit. Right look and capable of switching between the differing sides. I’m not casting someone as BOTW Impa. Nope. You can’t make me lol

Should there be a Malon in this, then Elizabeth Olsen. I think she could pull her off pretty well.

Tingle AND HIS BROTHERS should be cast as Brennan Lee Mulligan. I don’t care if he’s not really an actor. I’m convinced he could do it and do it well. The man has breadth, he has depth, he could do different voices for each with no issue. Plus. I LOVE him, your honor. Tbh this came to mind immediately but I was like wait, let it cook do some of the others first.

Who am I missing? Uhh…

If there’s a Hero’s shade character, Damian Haas for the voice. He’s done a lot of hero characters as a VA and I think letting him loose on a character like the Hero’s Shade would be really cool.

Not gonna lie, I’m forgetting every other character that exists in Zelda rn. My boss let me soapbox about how stupid people fucked up my shit by not doing what we told them to and now I’m all heated about that.

Give me some of your thoughts too tho, Somer!! (Or Ryan?? Which do you prefer??)
