Just a couple thoughts on characters...



Tim Curry is awesome but he's too harmless looking to be Arl Howe- you need some one that looks like he'd stab you in the back given the chance. Maybe Joe Pantoliano? The voice is totally different but the character is there



I LOVE the idea of Skarsgard (whatever) as Cailan - great great great choice, and same with Hellen Mirren as Wynne.



How about Gary Oldman as Bann Teagan?

But Tim Curry VOICED Arl Howe, lol. Why would you wanna break that up? And him as harmless? You ever see Rocky Horror Picture show? His smile just SCREAMS evil and devious.

Not so sure I can picture Gary Oldman in the role of a good guy....every time I see him all I can think about is Fifth Element or Bram Stoker's. Not sure I like that idea too much.

I've given it some more thought and what about Tim Robbins with a little hair dye and make up he could pull off a slightly younger role, such as Teagan.

Verne troyer would be a horrible Oghren. It is easy to decide that, listen to Oghren's voice acting, then listen to Verne Troyer's voice. Not even close.

Sam Worthington could be Alistair, but I would prefer him as the Male human noble, and Ryan Reynolds as Alistair.


If ryan reynolds was alistair I would have a hard time not picturing him as the step dad from the amnityville horror.

Whoever said Nathan Fillion as Alistair-- that's perfect. I remember they said they based Alistair's personality on a cross between Xander (from Buffy) and Malcom (Firefly).

Tim Curry is one of the least harmless looking people on the planet- nice guy and everything, but he has that deliciously diabolical look when he wants to.

A lot of actors change their accents, and I think if given the proper training Ryan Reynolds could pull of a British accent, just my thoughts.

My other thought was Heath Ledger, he would been pretty great in the part too, but obviously that could never happen for pretty clear reasons.


I think the choice for leliana is perfect, she can pull off being naive and sexy while at the same time be taken seriously as a cold blood killer/Assassin when she needs to be. And considering Milla martial training from other movies like resident evil, she can easily fit in with this character, probably being able to do her own stunts most of the time. Milla with a dagger is kick A(*&! Plus leliana is darker character we gave her credit for, she seduces man (her targets), and kills them while they're having sex (if need be), that killer instinct stuff. Plus being a sexual assassin has it bearings that leliana herself had to find refuge from the chantry.

I actually believe the best road would be CG characters. Bioware did an amazing job at picking the writers to create characters, cast amazing voice actors, created the imagery, personalities, etc. If real actor to be cast, it would be challenging for them to live up to what is expected from fans. Just visually compare your character in game and those of Alister, i.e., my favorite...*sigh*...Alistair....oh where was I? oh right, their visual look is so, chiseled, is the right word probably, they are so animated, unlike the character we control. It would be easier for animators to animate the CG models because they have a lot to work with,
I know CG movie would probably cost a fortune to make, but I bet it would be less compared to Hollywood-star-filled-live-action movie. And besides, CG technology gets better by the year, if not months. Every time I watch Avatar I still cannot believe Na'vi are CG.

Before I post my pics can I ask why so many people are casting African-American actors as Sten who is not black? (tanned like most qunari sure, but not black by a long shot). Also noticed a suggestion of a black Connor despite having two white actors for Eamon and Isolde. C'mon guys!

Now for my list keep in mind as a film maker I have actually written a script for my own personal enjoyment, and am basing my list off that; that is to say a solid Dragon Age movie would have to make choices on what path to take the story and skip a lot of the filler among other things to make it silver screen worthy. As such I would see a lot of characters as unnecessary. I also feel the Cousland origin story would be the best beginning as it would give a good back story into Howe's evil which will be important later in the story.

Rendon Howe - Alan Rickman

Alistair - Chris Evans

Duncan - Jeffrey Dean Morgan

Zevran Arainai - Antonio Banderas

Morrigan - Kate Beckinsale/Claudia Black

Arl Eamon Guerrin - Liam Neeson

Oghren - John Rhys-Davis

Revered Father Eirik - Paul Giamatti

Leliana - Katie Cassidy

Flemeth - Judi Dench

Fergus Cousland - Sean Bean

Riordan - Viggo Mortensen

Cailan - David Anders

Brother Kolgrim - Gerard Butler

Bann Teagan Guerrin - Gary Oldman

Found the rest hard to place, especially given age considerations.

By the way... where the heck is the Zevran look alike?? I've yet to see any. And I'm not talking who would play him best, but who best resembles him?


The guy in The Losers his nickname is Cougar? He looks like him I think he have the accent too ;D

A finnish musician Marko Saaresto as Alistair. Read the lyrics of his songs, definately the Alistair type, especially in terms of naivety and softness.

P.S. Not the best picture though...

But you know... Regardless of who plays Alistair i'm dead sure he has to be voiced by Steve Valentine. Or it won't be our precious awkward prince )

How did no one think Jensen Ackles for Alistair? I know he's no Brit, but he's got the looks and the skills. Or maybe I just see Dean Winchester in Alistair. They're both attractive, witty, and so very slow on the uptake at times.

For me the perfect Warden (the human noble from the CGI trailer) is clearly Julian McMahon. The Warden always remind me of an actor ... And when I look at an episode of Nip Tuck it seemed so obvious to me.

No A-listers

No CW actors/actresses



I wouldn't mind seeing some good talent taking on the roles of the characters - and by good talent, I mean the ones that likely never win awards because they aren't being gossiped about.



That in mind.



Andy Whitfield - Male Noble Warden. He doesn't have the actual kinda voice for Alistair, but Spartacus proves he can kill them all.



John Hannah is my pick for Howe. He knows how to be a devious little bastard - again, a Spartacus reference.



Steve Valentine himself could easily be Alistair.
