Videogame movie casting

Post by Jrecee »

Prince of Persia looks like it might actually be one of the first videogame based movies to be any good. So I was thinking about other games that might make entertaining movies and who would play the characters.

Metroid: Charlize Theron as samus. I really don't know who else would work here. She has already done physical and sci-fi roles with Aeon flux and hancock. Besides that, she has the acting ability to pull off a role where she's front and center nearly the whole movie. Metroid always had a feel where you're the only human in a huge environment. The movie would need that to work at all.

Vectorman: Bruce Campbell. Who else is there?

F-zero movie: Could be everything speed racer wasn't. Although I don't know enough about it to say who would play captain falcon.

nah a schwarzenegger comeback film would be a success no matter what it was about. Schwarzenegger and stallone could play aging bodybuilders who fall into a romance while on a duderanch and people would see it in droves. As long as something exploded.

:lol: I don't know why but I could actually see Bruce shouting out 'Toasted!', 'Go V Go!' and all of Vectorman's other catchphrases for some reason.
