Naturally Claudia Black for Morrigan, obviously for the voice (which the voice carries so much of the character, any other voice would just not fit). Sure she's a bit old for the role but definitely not too old and looks quite a bit like the character. Plus she's still quite attractive, in a very Morrigan way, definitely in looks but also in presence (she's proven this in her similar role in Farscape). Claudia's presence is perfect for that role (which is why the voice works so well).



I can see Ewan Mcgregor as Alistair for sure, the way he speaks and similar looks even.



For Duncan I can see Viggo, I think he would do well.



Sean Bean as Loghaine makes sense too (to me).



Michael Clarke Duncan as Sten also would work, I'm not sure he's a perfect fit but not a bad one in my opinion.



I think Ben Browder or Michael Shanks would be a great male warden and I think they could create characters that would represent the player's create-able origins and types, or just one male and female one possibly, (mage, warrior, rogue, etc). This way people could see similarities and enjoy them though realizing their characters were quite different nonetheless.

hmm they need a black guy at least for the first part they can kill him off later on like most movies....russel crowe as your PC would be beast as hell that is if he acted like he did in gladiator.


I agree. In the pics that show The Warden, he looks alot like Russel Crowe.


*sighs* Too old. Much too old. And waaaaay too many "too old" choices on this thread.

but who will be "The Warden"? and the warden's origin?... although i do like the warden with the short hair and blue-flamed eyes in the trailers, he looks so bad ass...but i wudnt want the game storyline to be the movie storyline...cameo appearances by the DAO cast is fine, or maybe one or two of em playing major roles..



n yeah, they shud make it cgi...stick with the original voices...

Riordan has got to be played by Liam Neeson. The first time I saw him I thought Arl Howe had managed to capture Qui-Gon Jinn.



Someone mentioned John Noble (Denethor from LotR, Walter Bishop from Fringe) for Loghain; I think he'd do an amazing job with the role.



For some reason, Arl Howe always reminded me of Eric Roberts. But Tim Curry would be the first choice of course. And like the OP suggested, Antonia Banderas for Zevran. Oh, and Gerard Butler as Kolgrim.

Hmm. I have to say that some of the actors people are picking for Alistair are a little on the old side. With movies you'd have to much more consider the physical age and appearance as much as the voice and personality.

For me, Alistair is best represented by a young British actor like Simon Woods or Hugh Dancy.

For Morrigan, Kate Beckinsale might work (also British) but I also like Emily Blunt or even Ellen Page (though she's a bit young... mind you, it's not as if movies never take liberty with character ages).

For Leliana, Milla Jovovich is nice. Bryce Dallas Howard or perhaps Evan Rachel Wood could also work.

For Zevran... Antonio Banderas? Seriously? I've seen people suggest him, but this is clearly based on voice. Physically the man is just too old and too... big (meybe 10 years ago he would suit, but not now). I would think Gael Garcia Bernal, myself, or even Alan Cumming (he certainly can do flamboyant).

For Loghain, I would go with Gary Oldman or even Anthony Hopkins... someone with intensity.

Meh. I know we'll never get to actually have input in such a beast (were it to ever happen), but still it's nice to imagine. Image IPB


Have to say, and there is no buttering up here at all, that those are all fine choices, although I don't know Gael Garcia Bernal.  But Ellen Page, Milla Jovovich and Gary Oldman are inspired choices! :-)

This is the problem with movies today, all they do now is "Let's add a hot half naked chick who takes no crap!!! Who needs a story when the sheep will be flocking to see this hot chick!!!"

If by 'today' you mean 'over the last forty years'  then I see your point.

Whoever said Ewan McGregor as Alistair, you are made of epic win! Fabulous choice- especially if you've seen him in "I Love You Phillip Morris"- he played sweet/naive/impish/whimiscal so well I was tempted to leap out of my seat and pinch his cheeks! :D



Anyhoo: My 2 sovereigns:



DUNCAN: Johnny Depp. At 47, he's the right age to play a mentor role, he can act his ass off and at certain angles during the battle of Ostagar, Duncan is (IMO) a dead ringer for Johnny.



MORRIGAN: Claudia Black, no question. Failing that, I could see Lucy Lawless in the role.



ALISTAIR: This might sound mad but I'm surprised no-one's mentioned Simon Pegg! He could easily play it for laughs but if we're going down the "funny AND handsome" path, then I vote for Ryan Reynolds. As much as his career's been a bit hit-and-miss, I think he shines in supporting roles.



LELIANNA: Audrey Tatau, if only for the frenchness. :)



STEN: Michael Clarke-Duncan, Danny Trejo or even Mickey Rouke in prosethic make-up.



OGHREN: Brian Blessed.



LOGHAIN: Tim Roth. He can play snarling evil old fruitcakes well and I reckon if you pop a black wig on him, he'd be perfect for the role.



WYNNE: Fionnula Flanagahn would be an inspired choice. She even looks a bit like Wynne.



ZEVRAN: Justin Timberlake. The boy can act and judging by his SNL sketches, this would be a role filled with snappy innuendo.



FLEMETH: Kate Mulgrew, who else?!



ARL HOWE: Ian Holm could pull it off quite well.



MALE HUMAN WARDEN: Jason Stadham or Michael Fassbender!

FEMALE HUMAN WARDEN: Renee O' Connor or Ellen Page.

You know, the suggestion of Simon Pegg for Alistair seems really awesome. He seems close enough in looks and voice, and can pull off that sort of quirky yet charming character well. Weird, because I don't think I ever would have thought of him.

NO movie can handle Dragon Age, it would just be way to short.

Here's my very own super special list:

Human Male Warden - Naveen Andrews
Human Female Warden - Natalia Tena
Elven Male Warden - Cillian Murphy
Elven Female Warden - Gigi Edgley

Duncan - Lani Tupu
Alistair - Matthew Goode (Just watch the video, he's perfect)
Morrigan - Claudia Black (Temporary :/)
Leliana - (Still stumped on this one)
Zevran - Gael Garcia Bernal
Wynne - Sigourney Weaver
Sten - Anthony Simcoe
Oghren - Paul Giamatti
Shale - Geraldine Blecker (Voice of Shale)

Arl Eamon - BRIAN BLESSED
Teyrn Loghain - Gary Oldman
Flemeth - Susan Sarandon
Arl Howe - Tim Curry
King Cailan - Ben Foster
Queen Anora - Emilie de Ravin
Jowan - Iwan Rheon
Riordan - Rufus Sewell
Tamlen - Dominic Monaghan

To be truly honest I've even an idea of how to fit it all into 3 movies.
Synopsi and everything.
I'm uber lame.

If DA were ever made a movie I rather see an adaptation of the books. An adaptation of the game would be bad, especially if it were stuffed into one movie. Without writing a whole new script, a game to movie adaptation looks bleak. But that's just me and my opinion, take it for what it is.

You know, to everyone who keeps saying this is a horrible idea because of past video games made into movies, I would like to point out that the same used to be said about comic books. Now we've had the Spider-Man movies, Iron Man movies, etc.  Compare them to the Spider-Man, Captain America, and Punisher movies of the 80's and you'll see times can change.

It requires effort and support from the people calling the shots.  For that matter, there was once a time that fantasy movies were not seen as potential blockbusters and book movies generally weren't good either. Lord of the Rings changed that notion as well.

It could be done, but all the pieces have to be in place.

if they were to make a movie i think a few unknown talents might make it all the better have an open audition for anyone willing to try.... match the face to a good actor and use the original voices unless the person is close enough. as for the main pcp it should be the female noble cause you know they would make alister king and the hero always get their woman or in this case the heroness gets her man

it would probably have to be at least 3 parts cut down orzamar to a basic political and getting branka. Redcliffe gives alot of basic game info so that would need to be fuller but cut down the Urn portion and it should work fine.

well it would be really cool if they did a movie. i think it would have to be at least half CGI and they had better do a better job on it than they did on the dungeon siege movie.



my suggestions



alistair- ryan reynolds



morrigan --could be megan foxx



wynne-- jane seymour or glenn close



loghain -- when i hear him in the game i always think of Malcolm McDowell



the others i dont have any ideas yet.

Video games and comic books are completely different storytelling mediums. Comic books still follow a fairly standard narrative structure (albeit over many issues), while video games simply do not. This is the main reason why most video game movies suck -- lack of an easily transferable narrative. For what it's worth, of all the games made in the last decade I think DA:O and ME are the ones with plots which are the most "adaptable" to a screenplay. However, it would still be a tremendous challenge to make a movie of either game. As good as the writing of DA may be, there still hours and hours of *gameplay* which don't really translate to the screen. Additionally, unlike a game, a script cannot contain choices, deviations, or side-quests. It might be an interesting way for the writers to set something down as canon, but from what I've seen around here a lot of people would start throwing hissy fits whatever they chose. 

All that said, it would still be totally awesome if an actual proper adaptation were to be created by the writing staff and directed by someone competent. I kind of doubt it would ever be considered unless DA becomes a hugely successful franchise (here's hoping!). Still, speculation is fun. For some reason whenever I think of Alistair live, I think of a slightly bigger version of Cary Elwes from the Princess Bride years.

Loghain - Simon Templeman. Give him a wig and he's good to go. He already voices him so why the heck not, plus he has done some bits of acting.
