[Movies] If you could pick the cast of the Warcraft Movie

[Totle]

UPDATED:

Gelbin Mekkatorque - Peter Dinklage


Jaina Proudemoore - Yvonne Strahovski


And of course -

Ronan O' Brian (this ones more of a joke...)



So I was looking at the Alliance leaders (some of them at least) trying to figure out who would be a good person to play them. This is what I came up with:

Varian Wrynn - Brandon Routh


Magni Bronzebeard - Kevin McKidd


Malfurion Stormrage - Liam Neelson


Tyrande Whisperwind - Famke Jenssen


Prophet Velen - Hugo Weaving


Genn Greymane - Jason Statham



Granted, it's not a complete list, but it's a start.

Discuss -
Who would you cast? If you can provide a picture to help the audience see what you're seeing.


EDIT: This is only for the Alliance - I'll make a Horde one later.

[pervox]

Steven Seagal as Thrall, 'nough said.

[Oxi]

Liam Neelson

[Totle]

I like the responses... but again, I'll make another thread for the Horde. This one is just about the Alliance

[jealouspirate]

Most seem to fit, at least visually. I don't really know all the actors.

Also, where's Mekkatorque?!

[Rushro]

Verne Troyer as Mekkatorque.

[Deleted]

I hope wow won't be filmed normally, and then made into 3D, like Airbender was.

Verne Troyer as Mekkatorque.

+1 internetz

[Totle]

Lol, I thought of that... but I was considering him to be the Trade Prince... though I suppose Verne could be Mekkatorque... he'd need to grow a mustache.

[Rakeer]

as long as im played by Brad Pit or Tom Cruise, ill shreik like a little girl.
Thats right, I'm so awesome im in the movie.

[Forblaze]

Thats a pretty nice list you made there, they all have something in common.

My try

Alliance
Jaina Proudmoore: Jessica Alba
Genn Greymane: Harrison Ford
Pretty much approved with the rest by the OP

Horde
Garrosh: Michael Clarke Duncan from The Green Mile / Sylvester Stallone
Thrall: Mickey Rourke / Kevin Costner
Vol'Jin: Christopher Lee
Cairne/Bain: Voice over by Ian McKellen (Gandalf)
Sylvanas: Catherine Zeta-Jones
Lor'Themar: Matt Damon / Christian Bale

[Mefistophelis]

OP you rock . most of these actors look really alike with their wow counterparts . although Routh needs to be aged properly to play varian

[Oneru]

That's good line-up, I must say, pretty big names. Would love to see Jason Statham, Liam Neeson and Hugo Weaving in one movie.

Add Peter Dinklage as Mekkatorque.

[Rageissues]

We need these two badasses to pwn some horde.




And to for the role of Jaina...

[Haven]

Hugo Weaving for Velen is so much win

[Ulgrim]

Kieth David for the voice of Thrall(Disney's Gargoyles).

[BallsofThunder]

Samuel L. Jackson as Garrosh both talk alot of smack and samuel will make garrosh funny. Or Terry Crews as Garrosh because hes ripped and also funny. Denzel Washington as Thrall. Morgan Freeman as Cairne.

Garrosh: I have had it with these mother f*** dragons on this mother f*** zepplin!

So god damn funny.

[Zookz25]

The lack of gnome representation from the OP is sad.

Gorlomi.

[Menegroth]

Did a good job here. I approve of these casting options
