perfect actors for starcraft live action movie

[paragon]

Raynor (http://www.bebo.com/Widget.jsp?WidgetId=4501297277&MemberId=4501238355)
Kerrigan (http://www.bebo.com/Widget.jsp?WidgetId=4501241631&MemberId=4501238355)

[burkid]

wow josh holloway looks a lot like raynor. i never noticed that before.

[DontHate]

HOLY CRAP! but seriously, no sc movie please!

[Nikzad]

the gears are already moving for a WC3 movie, but they have said that they aren't going to use any characters from the games, rather it would be a movie about the WC3 universe but not like the games

oh yeah and a Diablo film is in the works

so depending on those, who knows, SC could come next

[JBL]

I'm kinda against the starcraft movie idea.. but.. I gotta agree that Angelina looks like kerrigan.. but if only she was a good actress.. Kerrigan is a dark and evil role.. those are sometimes very hard to do perfectly.

[DontHate]

well if they do make movies i hope it's not uwe boll.

[Itsmyship]

Funny...I always imagined Angelina Jolie being Kerrigan if a movie was ever made, partly because I also imagined her playing Grendel's mother in a Beowulf movie...which she is :P

[lkccomander]

I love the Idea of Angelina as Kerrigan.

She is evil!!! :powerup:

[JBL]

well if they do make movies i hope it's not uwe boll.


If they do make a movie it's going to be a south korean movie.

[Itsmyship]

Hehehehehe...imagine a Korean Kerrigan and Raynor :P

[ArchLimit]

Haha, great up, Paragon. Those two are pretty amazing in resemblance to the characters. Now if we can just get Sean Connery to do Mengsk...

Not cuz he'd be good for the role, and I'm sure the English accent would throw the whole thing off, but Sean Connery should just play every old person in any movie ever, IMO.

[Fenix]

Dear God ArchLimit. That is coolest avatar I have seen in my whole life.


My only gripe here is that Angelina Jolie looks like Kerrigan, but not Sarah.

[Itsmyship]

Hahaha! I would also like to see the dude who played Saruman (his name always escapes me) to play DuGalle

The minute we get a black guy on SC though, Wesley Snipes or Samuel L. Jackson is gonna play him :P

[DontHate]

lol... samuel l. jackson as duran :D.

[JBL]

lol... samuel l. jackson as duran :D.


LOL! Of course!

btw.. I saw this in another discussion thread..

it was about someone who's making a map and every heroes are celebreties..

[Nikzad]

Hahaha! I would also like to see the dude who played Saruman (his name always escapes me) to play DuGalle

his name is Christopher Lee and you're right, he'd be a hell of a good DuGaulle, I think...
how about Gary Oldman for Stukov? Actually he might not be a good fit, I just said his name because I <3 Gary Oldman, and he is awesome at accents

EDIT: he's Sirius from Harry Potter and Stan from The Professional and Sergeant Gordon from Batman Begins

[DontHate]

yea lol i think i said that

[JBL]

yea lol i think i said that


haha I see.. that's funny.. even the 2nd time..

because it's so true.. Samuel should be renamed to Samir. lol

[Dxun]

lol... samuel l. jackson as duran :D.
Hell yeah man, Samuel my favorite badass actor playing duran my favorite SC badass, match made in SC heaven .

And for Tychus findlay we have Vin diesel ;)

[Nikzad]

vin diesel? over my dead body

scott caan i say; but thats just a suggestion until I think of someone else who is better. unless you think he is good. in which case scott caan

[paragon]

no, taye diggs would be a much better duran.

[ArchLimit]

Scott Caan's not bad but he actually comes across as slightly preppy in my opinion. I actually kinda liked the Vin Diesel idea. C'mon, what's wrong with him? Actually... everything was wrong with him after Pitch Black and Saving Private Ryan. But if he could pull off his Pitch Black badassness in a Marine Suit then I think he'd do just fine.

If not we could always go with Sean Connery again. HAHA

[Fenix]

I can totally see Vin Diesel as Findlay. Right attitude ("F**k with me and I will cut you good"), right complexion, used to playing tough guy in prison roles, and just badass.

[Nikzad]

The problem I have with Vin Diesel is that he did XXX
I wouldn't want SC the movie to be branded in the same category as XXX
That's the only reason I said Scott Caan. He's got the right complexion and lack of neck, but not that Tychus feel.

Now is the time for Vin Diesel to step and regain his Saving Private Ryan status.

[DontHate]

rofl, in saving private ryan he wasn't badass at all though, unlike tychus findlay(i suppose). i mean basicly, a small french child killed him.

[ArchLimit]

Actually, it was a badass French Sniper. D00d, that guy shouldn't have died, he was sweet. Well, then again, Barry Pepper aced him through the eye, which made Barry Pepper the bigger badass. So yea, come to think of it, Vin Diesel was a ***** in that movie, lol.

I'm still all for his Pitch Black persona though. I mean, I can see Vin Diesel bringing his acting resume for the Findlay audition:

1. Bald
2. Mean
3. Eyes glow in the dark

[zeratul11]

The problem I have with Vin Diesel is that he did XXX


lmao. hahah. exactly. lol

uhm.. gary oldman as stukov? nah, gary oldman looks too much of a good guy for a cocky authoritative character like stukov. he's more fitted for roles like serious black and the chief police in batman.

heres my list.

kerrigan - angelina jolie or scarlett johhansen
raynor - russel crowe or ewan mcgregor or brad pitt or heith ledger
mengsk - mel gibson or ralph fines or leam neeson
dugalle - yes christopher lee or ian mckellen
tychus - brock lesnar
duran - wesley snipes or lawrence fishburne or samuel jackson
stukov - robert deniro

others and extras
scv - owen wilson
ghost - jim cavaziel
other marines - orlando bloom.
medic - megan fox

[ArchLimit]

Hahaha, Orlando Bloom for the other marines? Oh jeez. Now the Terrans will lose for sure...

...I actually think Orlando Bloom should play the Medics. He'd fit right in.

[Fenix]

Na, see, Orlando Bloom should be a Marine. They have a battlefield life expectancy of 12 seconds :D

Liam Neeson needs to be in it for sure. He's awesome. Not Mengsk though. I don't want him to play a *****.

EDIT: I just saw Megan Fox for Medics.....She's babetacular. I think she should play Nova, not a semi-extra role. Also, why does everyone portray Duran as black? He looks Indian or Spanish

[burkid]

wasnt it only raised to 12 seconds after medics were enrolled? lol

[Fenix]

Yeah. Before, it was 8.

[burkid]

...anyone wanna enlist with me? we can get a full 8-12 seconds of combat before we get A) gunned down, B) Hacked to shreds and eaten, C)sliced in half, or D) blown to bits. sounds like a party.

[Fenix]

I'll be the "air support"

Roffle.

"WHERE IS THE AIR SUPPORT!?!?"

[burkid]

*points up while rocking back and forth*
enter dugall(Christopher Lee) and stukov(Robert Deniro) disucssing zerg from the safety of a battlecruiser

[Fenix]

Heh heh. I'd so be the X-Mas lights extra. Coolest guy in the whole SC universe. Though I cannot figure out what unit he is.

[burkid]

hmm... i cant say that ive really thought about what unit he is. lol.

[Fenix]

Well, see, he has the uniform of a firebat, but Firebats soooo don't have missile launchers

[zeratul11]

*points up while rocking back and forth*

lmao. hahah.


enter dugall(Christopher Lee) and stukov(Robert Deniro) disucssing zerg from the safety of a battlecruiser


lol.

[FlyingTiger]

I feel like Chris Cooper should be in the movie somewhere... lol

[DontHate]

well there were hydras there, why didn't they target the battlecruiser.

[burkid]

because that cinematic didnt need to be balanced ;)

[Fenix]

Yeah, I think one of their lasers in-cinematic would wipe out that entire trench.


And FlyingTiger....He rulez.....Stukov mebbe?

[Itsmyship]

@ Flyingtiger, Yes, I agree that Russel Crowe would make an awesome Jimmy.

The dude in the Transporter...Jason something (sorry, I'm bad with actor/actress names) would make a kickass Ghost though.
As for Nova...I say either Scarlet Johanson or quite possibly Jessica Alba (better be a hell of a better actress than in Fantastic Four though)

[burkid]

you mean the guy that played captain lennox?

i havent seen it yet. im trying to avoid seeing it.

[Itsmyship]

He's also the bald badass driver in the Italian Job...personally, anything covert opsy just fits him imo :P

[burkid]

oh, you said transporter, not transformers. lol. i know who you are talking about now. yeah, that guy is pretty sweet.

[Itsmyship]

Is he in Transformers? No he isn't, I definitely meant the move "The Transporter." Oh well, I think you know who I mean...he was also in Snatch too.

Well anyway, I vote Elijah Wood for Zergling!!! :P

[burkid]

yeah, he wasnt in transformers. i was thinking of someone completely different. now that we are thinking of the same person, i agree with you.

i would laugh, very hard, if elijah was a ling.

[Itsmyship]

Hahaha!! Good to know we're thinking of the same dude :P

Hehe, I would get a good laugh at it. Ever seen Green Street Hooligans...awesome movie, but Elijah does not know how to swear :P

[burkid]

of course he doesnt. he was in a spy kids movie and was frodo.

[Itsmyship]

Exactly! Which is why he's perfect for Zergling!

Oh yeah and....hmmmm....Tychus is a hard person to think of...it'll take me a while....

[burkid]

Governator! :P

im not being serious

[Itsmyship]

woooo!!!! Hooray for my Governor!!! :P

Oh yeah! You know who might be able to make a good Mengsk....Al Pacino.

[burkid]

hmm... i hadnt thought about that, but youre right. al pacino would be great.

Michael Clark Duncan in the tank. black tank driver would own.
its this guy if you dont know the name : http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0003817/

[Itsmyship]

Hehe definitely! We need a black man driving the tank and a Scotsman driving the Cobra!!

[burkid]

that would be hilarious. i can hear it now "how do i work this bloody contraption? i wanna kill something!"

[Itsmyship]

Hehehe and "Bloody bastards bit me!! Where's me longsword!!!"

[burkid]

haha one of the quotes from clicking on it a bunch could be "I am Connor McCloud of the clan McCloud" "Im here for your head"

[DontHate]

elijah could be a dark templar. He's frail, puny, fast, but he looks cool as an assasin. Did you see sin city? that scene where he opens the door... god.

[burkid]

ack. he was creepy in that movie. he needed to clip his fingernails too.

[Nikzad]

uhm.. gary oldman as stukov? nah, gary oldman looks too much of a good guy for a cocky authoritative character like stukov. he's more fitted for roles like serious black and the chief police in batman.


Too much of a good guy? Look into his work Z
Movie - Character
JFK - Lee Harvey Oswald
Dracula - Dracula
Léon: The Professional - Stansfield
The Scarlet Letter - Rev. Arthur Dimmesdale
The Fifth Element - Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg
Hannibal - Mason Verger
Beat the Devil - The Devil

He is actually more well known for doing intense/torn characters and bad guys. he has only recently started doing more good-guy roles


Actually, it was a badass French Sniper. ... Well, then again, Barry Pepper aced him through the eye, which made Barry Pepper the bigger badass.

Actually, it was a badass German Sniper. :) Barry Pepper is my hero. If he could put on a few pounds and smoke cigars enough to deepen his voice (or just use a synthesizer) I would love to see him as Tychus. But wait, it's so obvious that I didn't even realize it....he'd be an awesome ghost!

Jason Statham (pronounced STAY-thum) is the guy from The Transporter.

I think Scarlett Johansson would be a good fit, but her face seems a little chubbier than Nova's (I'm just pointing it out - I would not be so averse to seeing her in full skin-tight ghost attire) so I think I'd go for Jessica Alba.

[FlyingTiger]

yea both asses are nice ^_^

[Nikzad]

yeah scarlett has a bigger, more over-the-top bust size though, so it really depends on where you allegiances lie in the "what physical traits I like in a woman" argument
