ok, i was wondering... What if Dragon Age origins was made into a Movie. Who would you pick to play all the characters? Which Origin would you Chose? Which side would you pick with the Dwarves? Or with on the Nature of the Beast? Or the Broken Circle?

 

I think the most Movie Like would be

 

Human Noble Origin (male)

Siding with Lord Harrowmont

Siding with the Dalish but convincing Zathrian to undo the curse

Taking the Mages side in the broken Circle

 

As for cast:

 

The only person who really springs to mind for any character is Helen Mirren as Wynne.

 

what are your thoughts?

Hmmm...

 

I'd agree with your choices about the major quests. :thumbsup:

 

However, I'd rather start with a different Origin - the City Elf origin would be my choice. Female lead, too...because we want to throw the Hollywood stereotype right out. ;)

 

In that event, I'd like Emily Browning as the lead (City Elf female).http://movies.rightcelebrity.com/wp-content/photos/Emily_Browning_1.jpg

 

Who to play what, though...?

 

I like Helen Mirren as Wynne. Also Gary Oldman as Arl Rendon Howe.

Chris Hemsworth as Alistair, and William Hurt as Arl Eamon.

Gwyneth Paltrow as Anora and Sir Ian McKellen as First Enchanter Irving.

So many to choose from... ;)

 

//EDIT: added images, reformatted post, got Sir Ian's name right. ;)

i agree with Chris Hemsworth, William Hurt and Gwyneth Paltrow. (although Anora's part is pretty small, so probably not an A-lister). The problem i have with Sir Ian McKellan is that he played Gandalf. and Irving is too similar to Gandalf in terms of looks. I don't really have a problem with Gary Oldman, other than the fact that Tim Curry would also be good.

 

Antonio Banderas would probably make a decent Zevran. but he might also be getting a little old for the part.

I gotta agree with Banderas as Zev. Its the voice. He sounds almost exactly like Banderas.

I'd go with Ryan Reynolds as Alistair, personally. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005351/

MAYBE Claudia Black http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0085227/ as Morrigan since she's the original voice actress.

Oh yeah, I would chose Kevin Grevioux http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0340485/ (played Raze in Underworld) as Sten

My preferences:

Morrigan - Eva Green (Camelot)

Alistair - Jamie Bamber (BSG):

Kevin Grevioux and Eva Green are good choices.

 

I can't think of anyone for Leliana :S

Nice match in looks, but Leli's voice is so crucial! In fact, all the Companions' voices are important to their characters. The other NPCs, not so much.

 

Too bad Corinne Kempal looks so much like Morri... :tongue:

Some very nice suggestions especially Rachael Wood and Eva Green as Leliana and Morrigan respectively. Think we are forgetting the most important Warden Commander but I can't think of anyone yet.

 

Alistair - Scott Speedman

Leliana or Morrigan - Kate Beckinsale

Yes, Sir Ian has done Gandalf, but he has the right voice and look.

 

And given that, if it was ever done, the scope of the movie would be absolutely huge (it would likely make the LOTR trilogy look tiny) I don't think you'd have a problem with A-listers taking smaller parts. ;)
