Olicc Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I'm bored at work, and started thinking about how they are changing the look of Lana Beniko in the new expansion, and how Daisy kind of looks like Jaina Solo.... Anyway... Say they make a movie about SWTOR (which they wont, but just for the sake of discussion and a fun hunt for actors), who should play the following characters in a live action movie with no budget constraints. Revan Satele Shan Malgus Darth Marr Lana Beniko Theron Shan I intentionally left out the main characters/player characters because they obviously look very different for each person, but feel free to add your thoughts on actors for other characters like companions or other story characters. Keep in mind not only people who might look like them, but could also play the role; ie have at least enough athletic ability to look like they know how to fight and would be able to act well enough for the movie not to suck. OK, let your google searches begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decension Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) Revan - Christian Bale (tentatively. Maybe Leo?) Satele Shan - Emily Blunt Malgus - I want to say Hugo Weaving but he's a little thin. Maybe Dave Bautista? Darth Marr - Karl Urban Lana Beniko - Alice Eve (I think maybe Jen Lawrence might be good but I'm having serious doubts) Theron Shan - James Marsden Edited August 22, 2015 by Decension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSitruc Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Revan-Mark Ruffalo Lana-Charlize Theron Theron-Jeremy Renner Jaesa-Scarlett Johansson Satele-Ally Walker Malgus-Vinnie Jones Valkorian-Anthony Hopkins i agree with most of this list Ruffalo as revan would be weird. vinnie jones would be great as malgus. Anthony hopkins as Valkorian would be cool. in fact in the still images, i thought Valkorian looked a lot like hopkins. When I first saw the cinematic, he reminded me more of Liam Neeson.

Olicc Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 HA! some good ideas here I think Karl Urban makes a better Theron than Marr, just because he's not a very large person. He actually makes a really good Theron. I think Vinnie Jones would make a great Malgus or Marr Oddly, I kind of dig Ruffalo as Revan though on paper it seems like it shouldn't work. Bale is a bit more obviously right for the roll, being the right general look and we know he can pull off action. Naomi Watts as Zash is GREAT!!! Melanie Laurent looks a lot like Lana, great find there, too. I feel like Satele Shan needs to be a half Asian actress. She was modeled after Sno E. Blac who is half Korean, and half Asians tend to have a unique look to them. Unfortunately, I don't think Sno is old enough to play her for this time period. Lucy Liu is about the right age and we know from several movies she can kick ***, but being full Chinese she doesn't have that hapa look, either.

He is tall enough, but his suite would have to add quite a bit of mass to him. But they did that with Michael Keaton's Batman suit so its doable. Love him as an actor. I approve. Nico Okar-Josh Brolin - Nice idea to have him in the movie and I think your actor pick is spot on, as well. Jace Malcom-Vin Diesel Darth Baras-Anthony Hopkins - Yep, perfect I love Gylenhaal, but he's way better when he does dark roles like nightcrawler. I see Theron as a wanna be Han Solo character, so a skilled/trained, pragmatic spy who's a bit of a scoundrel, a bit of a charmer, and a bit wise guy; so the personality of Chris Pratt, but the look of the character.

Olicc Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 My Personal opinion top picks from the suggestions so far Revan - keanu Reeves Satele Shan - Kelly Hu Malgus - Tom Hardy or vinnie jones Marr - Vinnie Jones or Tom Hardy Lana Beniko - Melanie Laurent Nico Okar - Josh Brolin Darth Baras - Anthony Hopkins Darth Zash-Naomi Watts Jace Malcom-Vin Diesel Vitiate - Doug Bradly And an honorable mention for Christian Bale who I want to include but thought Keanu slightly inched him out, since he's been known to play small but very powerful, very well such as Matrix and John Wick. Maybe Christian Bale could be The Hero of Tython? Or Christian bale could be Revan and have Keanu be the Jedi Consular? Or Christian bale could be the Sith Warrior "Wrath" if he was willing to play a bad guy Also, I kind of liked it better in the Revan book, where Vitiate was a Sith Pureblood better. Doug Bradly could still play him, or just have him be the emperor's spirit's current host. According to the lore in this time period, most Sith are supposed to be Sith Purebloods, right? However, most of the council seems to be human....That seems... unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The purebloods even in this timeline are not as prevelant as they once were. Vitiate's original council was probably mostly purebloods. I forgot about Kelly Hu. Yes she would be perfect for Satele if she had some blue contacts like she did in X2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterGun-SWE Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 All around, there are realy great sugestions... But i would love to see Olivia Munn as Satele Shan. Oh, and Jennifer Lawrence would make great Kira Carsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olicc Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 No arguments about Olivia Munn here, she's one of my favs. And, half Asian and though young for the role, is old enough that she could be made took look 15 years older without totally changing her face. Jennifer L could work too, but she'd have to work on her comedic timing since Kira is a smart ***. John Kerry defiantly looks the part. Unfortunately, he's probably a bit too busy as Secretary of State to film a movie. But I did say dream cast and money no object and for enough campaign money, politicians have proven that they'll do just about anything, so I'll allow it.
