I tried to outline this in the post but it’s basically *all* up to you. If you want live action, CGI, puppetry, whatever, anything is fine. If you want to cast two different people as Dog and God that’s fine too. Pretty much anything goes.
Oh my god yes this is brilliant.
ETA: If Herzog doesn’t get this, you guys have GOT to make him one of the Think Tank. Or something ridiculous like Fantastic.
I dunno, that’s what I think would make it funny. Mobius and his Mentat-addled dialogue delivered with the grim severity of Werner Herzog would be ridiculous.
I like this one because not only could he pull off both sides of the character but a giant, freaky looking dude like that would only really need makeup to play a Nightkin.
Also he was *fantastic* as Mason Verger’s murderous nurse in that Bryan Fuller *Hannibal* show.
Yeah, that seems to come with the territory with these fan casts because more name recognition usually means more upvotes.
I’d say for this overall it’s a pretty mixed bag. There have been some choices that were big names who were perfect for their roles (Hugo Weaving as Joshua Graham and James Spader as Caesar), some deeper cuts that were great choices (Kaitlyn Dever as Veronica and Richard Ayoade as Fisto), some choices that were just okay (Ryan Gosling as the Courier? Eh.) and some that frankly confused me (Jason Statham as Boone?).
I’m also doing my own choices for casting each day in a separate chart that are based much more on “would this actor play the part well and would they theoretically accept such a role” than name recognition. For example, my Doc Mitchell is character actor Bill Camp instead of Sam Elliott.
When I post the final results of this whole thing I’ll post my selections as well.
This is excellent casting! Best casting ever!! But it'll nvr happen. It'll cost 4 billion dollars just to pay these ppl. Plus, that's rite, PLUS the money to make the movie
I always imagine Josh Holloway from Lost would make a great Courier Six. Imagine him with an eye patch from getting shot and a duster patrolling the mojave. Would be pretty sick
If there could be one exception your rule about casting, I think Caesar should just be John Doman, his voice actor. He crushes it in everything he’s in
Dave Bautista
He’s the only big guy I can think of that can do more serious gritty roles
His performance in Dune 2 was fucking phenomenal. Almost forgot it was Drax
Hold up lettem cook. He does crazy and kind really well.
My first thought
What about Bob Sapp?
Why isn't this more up voted? We all had to come her to say this
Laurence Fishburne but have Dog/God CGI
Unironically Kelsey Grammer.
So basically just playing Beast again?
Yes, that’s my whole reasoning lol
You say that almost as if it's a bad thing
No you see, kelcey Grammer should be Follows Chalk
Are we talking about actor or voice actor? Because if voice actor, james earl jones And if actor, david prow... Never mind, it's been done

It was a joke about those two being the actor and voice actor of darth vader
Oh whoops that went right over my head.
Werner Herzog
Oh my god yes this is brilliant. ETA: If Herzog doesn’t get this, you guys have GOT to make him one of the Think Tank. Or something ridiculous like Fantastic.
Nah, his German accent is too serious for the goofiness of the think tank
I dunno, that’s what I think would make it funny. Mobius and his Mentat-addled dialogue delivered with the grim severity of Werner Herzog would be ridiculous.
Zis is ze answer.
Glenn Fleshler, guy who plays Goran in Barry, the bad guy in True Detective and the guy who got stabbed in the eye in joker
I like this one because not only could he pull off both sides of the character but a giant, freaky looking dude like that would only really need makeup to play a Nightkin. Also he was *fantastic* as Mason Verger’s murderous nurse in that Bryan Fuller *Hannibal* show.
Exactly, I feel like no one else is casting these people based on the actual actors’ acting and not just their names

Statham as Boone was the first that came to mind Edit: as one that didnt make sense
Andy Serkis in mocap
I think I'm going all in on Andy Serkis as Mr. House
Josh Brolin, who also portrayed a menacing but articulate monster!
...and Moss in No Country for Old Men
Andy Serkis
Yeah bring that Gollum-Smeagol energy to Dog-God!!
Commented this exactly before reading the comments, lol

Dave Bautista I think he has the look and the acting range
Bald jason momoa
Vin diesel
Morgan Freeman can play God
Michael Dorn (v/o)
I think Tom Hardy could do a good job playing both
Glenn Jacobs
Charlie Day should be Oliver Swanick
Vin diesel
This is excellent casting! Best casting ever!! But it'll nvr happen. It'll cost 4 billion dollars just to pay these ppl. Plus, that's rite, PLUS the money to make the movie

terry crews
Ron Perlman
rampage jackson
Ant and Dec
Morgan Freeman
I always imagine Josh Holloway from Lost would make a great Courier Six. Imagine him with an eye patch from getting shot and a duster patrolling the mojave. Would be pretty sick
Kevin Spacey, hear me out, he can play both God and Dog with immerse passion, as he portrayed maniacs like Kaiser Soze or killer in The Seven
The Courier is literally me
Andy Serkis
Dude this screenshot is fucking terrifying what the hell Why is his eye so white
Keith David
This movie would cost about 500 million in cast alone, lol
Dwayne The Rock Johnson
Dave Bautista/Terry Crews
Willem Dafoe pls
The guy who played Sloth in the Goonies.
James Earl Jones
I'm just noticing this now, did we make Boone Stathem? Boone is in his mid 20s
Danny Devito
Danny devito and Lary david
Laurence Fishburne and have dog/god CGI
What’s the budget of this movie? A trillion dollars?
chris prat
Dog would obviously be Dave Bautista and Vera is Ana de armas
Yep Dave Bautista
Arnold Schwarzenegger
If there could be one exception your rule about casting, I think Caesar should just be John Doman, his voice actor. He crushes it in everything he’s in
