The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers

Character discussion.

(1/3) > >>

Con:
So just opening a fun discussion on favourite character other than Dresden and why plus ideal casting.

My vote as a character. It's a tough one for me.

In terms of character development I'd have to go either Butters or Molly.

I also like how Murphy is a tough chick that still behaves like a woman not just a macho asshole who happens to be female.

I find Michael to be an inspiring character and so well written you can almost feel his goodness seep through the pages, makes me almost want to believe in God.

Ebenezar is just like his description of a soul gaze an old oak that has seen too much in the world. His character reminds me of that of old war veterans from Vietnam trying to live their life, but still having a grizzled hardness to their soul.

Rashid is a lot of things intriguing, mysterious, wise, humouress, good natured. I like that he's a positive Muslim character, but more than that I just like the guy. He is well suited to his role as a guardian just like Ebenezar is well suited to being a warrior. I wish we saw more of him on screen though I guess that'd defeat the purpose of his character

Marcone is chilling, he's a trope well used and well done. Like Ebenezar he was a soldier whose seen and done too much and been hardened by it, only he decided to use his coldness and darkness to serve himself.

I think I'm going to wait and see some discussion before deciding who to vote for.
 I know Jim has joked about Tom Hiddleston and Michael Fassbender as Thomas and Harry, while I don't think it's very realistic eh who cares this is about fun so that said I've always wanted to see those two thrown together with James McAvoy and Benedict Cumberbatch the four of them on screen together would be amazing. Some day I'll become a Hollywood Writer and get them together in an SAS Squad movie taking down a Jungle Warlord.

What do you reckon one could play Michael the other Nicodemus.

In terms of realistic casting I tend to look at tv actors for a potential Dresden Files tv series as it may actually be possible.I've really only got one solid hope.

Laura Vandervoort as Murphy. She's a Canadian actress sci fi and supernatural props, plus here's the kicker she's a second dan black belt as can totally kick ass.

Other TV Castings would have to include the Cast of Supernatural. I know Jim's not a fan of the longevity of the show but I think he was fan in the beginning. Though the actors might not want to work on such a similar show with similar characters after their finished with Supernatural

Jarad Padelecki as Thomas.

Jensen Ackles as Dresden.

Misha Collins as Nicodemus or Michael (either or I think he has deceptive range)

Then theres

Famke Jenssen as Mab or Lea (She has the sultry evil seductress thing goin on and the accent fits)

Sasha Grey as Lara (I saw her in Entourage and she can act... I swear thats the only time I've seen her)

Quantus:
Marcone and Butters, for the Arcs.  I love how Butters has developed over the course of the series, and similarly Im really interested to see what Marcone becomes (and could have become). 

Con:
Hmm i feel like Marcone is a purpose built character what that purpose is is to create a small duchy nation around Chicago to give it and harry protection and allies. I find it interesting that Marcone is so intent on being independent yet allows himself to be drawn into the supernatural

"Drawn into the supernatural"?  Hells no, he's launched a campaign to Claim it, or as much as he can.

Disappointed you left out Uriel, Toot, Shiro, Rashid...
