Michael Ealy is totally a high yellow Jensen Ackles. They both make me stare in bewilderment at their beauty the same way.
I would miss Sam towering over Dean, though. But way to go to restrict your casting pool.
Hey, Orlando Jones could play their father...I don't know how old he is, but for some reason I buy that more than Michael Jai White.
I can't think of a proper black recast for Cas, but I've had two white guys of similar type rattling around in my head forever--Matt Bomer and Ciliian Murphy. Murphy especially, distractingly, so.
Man, that sneek peak had more than I wanted to know, but I couldn't stop watching once I started (figuring that there would be no more TMI, d'oh). I don't think it's spoilery that the official line on re-appearing characters is
"if there's a will there's a way" regardless of whether or not they're dead
but I'll whitefont it just in case.
Hodge is 6'1', Ealy 5'10. 4 inch difference, so not so bad.
Jared's 6'4' and Jensen's 6'1', so only a 3 inch difference.
What about Nate Parker for Cas?
Sam has to tower over everyone, though! Aldis can manhandle Emmanuelel Vaugier (that was her, right?) all he wants, it won't be the same.
::looks up Nate Parker::
Too many pictures of him smiling! Cas is srs bzns! I can't tell.
But in "stealing from the left hand to pay the right", I think Rick Worthy would be *excellent* as Cas.
I loved the stunt casting until I remembered that Aldis('s character) killed Sam that one time. Messes me up. Michael Ealy is perfection, though.
Ciliian Murphy. Murphy especially, distractingly, so.
There's just something about him that I find kind of creepy, though.
He does creepy really well.
No idea who this guy is, but I'd cast him as Dean in a heartbeat: [link]
There's just something about him that I find kind of creepy, though.
I think it would be interesting to see him play "out of this world" next to Misha. It's another thing it occurred to me that Rick Worthy plays well. Other kinds of multidimensional wavelengths of celestial intent--that have charisma and stick around.
I want to see a five things fic of the WInchesters.
Like,
- John goes vengey, but leaves the kids with friends--Azazel gets Sam, Michael gets Dean
- John goes vengey, but finds some Campbells and leaves the kids with them (they become assholes and are taken by Lucifer and Michael
- John does not go vengey, tries to raise the kids in a normal environment. All their school friends are demons, and we get the same knowledge of people that die. Azazel gets Sam, Dean dies trying to save him, because he has no skills.
- John does not go vengey, but hides the kids from the unknown as best he can with book knowledge. When Azazel comes for Sam, Dean is the one that burns on the ceiling
- The series as we see it.
