Let’s say your favorite game is getting turned into a big budget movie.

What game? And which actor plays the main character?

I’ll start with one I’ve heard other people mention - I think Dave Bautista would make a good Kratos. He’s physically huge, and he’s actually a semi-decent actor now.

 

[Digital-Aftertaste]

Ben Stiller as Kratos

 

[Sooner]

Jack Black. Game doesn't matter.

 

[kiphalfton]

BJ Blazkowicz in Wolfenstein

 

[kevboard]

Robert Pattinson as Max Payne

 

[Magic Carpet]

Michael J Fox as Ratchet.

 

[solidus12]

Kianna Dior as Eve in Stellar Blade.

liam neeson as big boss

[El Muerto]

Alan Ritchson as BJ Blazkowicz.

Have you seen Bautista lately? He lost >100lb and is in no shape for such a role.

Better take this guy:

What happened to him? Is he sick or to much Ozempic?

Dave Bautista Is Losing Weight After Being an ‘Uncomfortable’ 315 Pounds for a Movie Role: ‘The More I Trim Down the Better I Look Next to Other Actors’

Dave Bautista is losing weight so he can tackle a more diverse range of acting roles and not appear so distracting on camera opposite other actors.

[Hudo]

Joseph D. Kucan as Kane.

 

[Trilobit]

You might think I photoshopped her chin, but not, they are just that similar.

I also thought I'd include the most obvious choice for main character actor:

[MayauMiao]

Ellen Page as Ellie before she ruined herself.

 

[Holammer]

My favourite games don't lend themselves to live action movies. Cartoons maybe, I don't play AAA slop.
Even if they make Pixar level movies out of Sly Cooper, Spyro or Crash, they would still cast Hollywood actors instead of using existing voice actors.



Who could'a thunk it, they could make Claptrap sound WORSE with Jack Black doing the voice.

 

[0neAnd0nly]

Kurt Russel as Big Boss/Snake

Dude, if only he used Escape from LA / NY for inspiration for Snake in MGS! That would have been something!!

 

[Badlucktroll]

David Hayter as Solid Snake

 

[nowhat]

This would require AI. But I think the late great comedian would approve.

In the upcoming Oblivion remake, I'd like Patric Stewart replaced with Gilbert Gottfried. Perhaps a mod can make it happen. It's just a minute role, but it'd be great.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Toby Macguire is Claire Redfield.

In a cinema event of the century.

Featuring Tom Holland as Spider-man.

Nathan Drake comes to a theater near you, played by Billy Dee Williams playing Andrew Garfield.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Ellen Page as Ellie before she ruined herself.

He could be a decent Lev after she ruined himself.

More like he's too lazy to work out drinking protein shakes and any other buff up stuff. He's Hollywood, not WWE. As for any GOTG movie, they'll just CGI any muscles onto him if needed.

 

[SHA]

Mitchell Hooper as The Doom Guy, Master Chief, Marcus.

 

[SHA]

Have you seen Bautista lately? He lost >100lb and is in no shape for such a role.

Better take this guy:

He's eating the type of food that doesn't make him obsessed with food.

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

Martin sheen the illusive man from mass effect

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Even though this is A.I but definitely these live looking actors/actresses especially Eva and The Boss
