Miranda was born in 2150.
Shepard was born in 2154
The First Contact War 2157-2183

"Mankind discovers ancient alien technology that enables faster than
light travel. Using stored coordinates, mankind stumbles on a hostile
alien race know as the Turians."

So, as Mass Effect movie is about in time line when The First Contac War starts?
Then it started when Miranda was 7 and Shepard 3 years old.

I'm going to be lynched by certain fans, but yes, I think Kate Beckinsale would make a VERY good Miranda in a Mass Effect movie.

Of course it helps that I like the non-ME-stuff she's made, whilst I dislike the non-ME stuff Strahovski has made.

Though this one has gotten very much used to Strahovski's face in the game nonetheless


You don't deserve such nor will you get that from me. If anything, this type of role would be different for Kate. She's obviously branched out, but will always be seen as Selene from Underworld (She'll be in the fourth film, btw).

You have to consider Miri's background. It's obvious that Yvonne's Austrailian, but is "Miranda"? You get this lots of tmes when an American actor portrays a non-American character or the inverse (no offense to Yvonne) (ie: Lara Croft: Angelina Jolie) You didn't have this problem in Underworld because the entire cast was English. Is Miranda English, but she has an Austrailian accent. It's no big deal, to me, as I'd watch Kate in anything. I'm just saying that it comes up alot.

I said in an earlier post, I wonder the reaction if the VAs from the games were in the movies - not necessarily if it'd be a good or bad thing (because the overall stigma from Game based movies is not-so-good), but we rarely see these people. (ie: Meer/Hale. "Their characters' voices do have faces behind them!")

To clarify, I meant before as in "I do not like the idea of a FCW movie, and would prefer a forced canonical adaption of the Mass Effect games over the FCW if given the choice".

She's alright.  Let me guess, you're one of those emo kids that got all gooey over her cuz she played a vampire in a cat suit?  Her booty isn't big enough to fill Miranda.  FYI, Selene wasn't strong.  She was cheesy like every other superhuman vampire fairy.


THANK YOU! Am  the only one who hates that movie series and finds her performance weak as hell? Miranda is badass with the actress she has as her voice and face.

OP? This is for you...

Yvonne Strahovski IS Miranda Lawson. Using face/body scans of actresses as well as their voices for characters and then not using them in a movie seems....idiotic. The only excuse I can see is if there's sufficient time between the game and movie that the actors/actresses are no longer age appropriate.

Yvonne Strahovski is the obvious first choice.
Jennifer Carpenter is an excellent second choice. She also looks like Miranda.

Speak for yourself. My mShepard looks like he's about 40 (I always prefer playing as older males) and turns out he's only about 33. 

I wish we could've chosen Shepard's age.

I know that usd Yvonne but Kate Beckinsale is a more well know actress who looks beyond beautiful in everyway possible. Yvonne is beautiful too but Kate in my own opinion is more beautiful and seems good for it also if they can't get Yvonne, she in real life seems to perfect to even be natural, so the character role fits. Also as in seen underworld the character of Selene seems similar to Miranada Lawson in everyway being a strong and beautiful woman. Also with casting like Kate more people will see the movie just for the big name attached to it.


You sir are a creeper

Yeah, um, the first contact war definently did not end in 2183

And that's not how the war started either...

Actually we who like it are in the minority... I don't care what anyone says those movies rock.

Ugh, no movie please. All this talk about forcing famous actors into roles that are already filled is so dumb that it will probably happen. Not all things are better as a movie, in fact it's pretty much the opposite.

Heh, I love Yvonne Strahovski, but I can tell you she doesn't have Miranda's body either. It's a great body, it's just not THAT great.

Yvonne WILL play Miranda in a movie, but they'll have to use some effects to make her...proportions look correct.

She can do Jack maybe. Miranda should stay Yvonne.

I'd pay for a Jack/Miranda lesbian scene.

Why are people so interested in the Relay 314 incident?

It would be 3/4 orbital bombardment, yay, good movie.
