Sometimes, a book-to-movie or book-to-TV adaptation will hit the nail on the head when it comes to casting and it’ll feel like the characters fell out of their book and onto the screen, much to the delight of fans of the source material.
Are there any book adaptation castings that are like this for you?
@ScreenSloths @Bookworms
Connor Storrie as Ilya Rozanov and Hudson Williams as Shane Hollander in the Heated Rivalry tv adaption are like this for me, 100%
So are Taylor Zakhar Perez as Alex Clairmont-Diaz and Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Henry in the Red, White, & Royal Blue films
Richard Armitage as John Thornton
“Mr. Thornton and Mr. Hale were both absorbed in some subject they had started
discussing at their last meeting. On looking up from her work, Margaret’s eye was
caught by the difference in appearance between the two men. Her father was of slight
figure, when contrasted with the tall, massive frame of the other. The lines in her
father’s face were soft and waving, with a frequent trembling movement passing over
them, showing every fluctuating emotion; the eyelids were large and arched, giving to
the eyes a languid beauty which was almost feminine.
In Mr. Thornton’s face the straight brows fell low over clear, deep-set, earnest
eyes, which seemed intent enough to penetrate into the very core of what he was
looking at. The lines in the face were few but firm, as if they were carved in marble;
his lips were slightly compressed over teeth so faultless as to give the effect of sudden
sunlight when a rare bright smile shone out of the eyes. It changed his whole look
from a severe and resolved expression to the keen honest enjoyment of the moment,
which is seldom shown so fearlessly except by children. Margaret liked this smile; it
was the first thing she had admired in this new friend of her father’s; and the
opposition of character seemed to explain the attraction the two men evidently felt
towards each other.”
Also there’s the fact Thornton has a northern english accent since he lives in Milton-Northern, and they got an actor to play him that has the accent this time around. Yes, I’m looking at you Sir. Patrick Stewart. (You did your best with what you were given I suppose)
I am not sure why maybe it is because of the vibes but The Perks of Being A Wallflower. I thought Logan Lerman was perfect for Charlie. He gave this vibe of he could play a good invisitible kind of guy that is shy and depressed. And Ezra Miller played Patrick as kind of the crazier best friend, he played that role very good. Emma Watson idk how to describe how she fit the role as Sam well but I just think she is an amazing actress and beautofukl so she can fit into any role well. I mean she played a great dumb teen in the movie The Perfect Score and was hilarious
