If they made a movie...
...which actors would u pick?
Melinda Clarke would have to be one of the female vampires, maybe VV.

Smiling Jack - Johnny Depp
Nines Rodriguez - Ralph Fiennes
Beckett - Al Pacino
Bach - James Cromwell
Jeanette/Therese - Sarah Polley
Ming-Xiao - ??? (I dont know that many asian actresses)
Mercurio - Tim Robbins
Gary - Christopher Walken
V.V. - Drew Barrymore

If you really would be an omnivore, you would consider raw innards a delicacy.
Oh god no lmao...
Brad Pitt? Johnny Depp? Leo???
You are girl by any chance?
haha, mainstream actors ftw!
shareSo, according to you, an actor who is attractive is therefore untalented ?
Sorry, I disagree.
I dont remember how DiCaprio got there, but Pitt and Depp are both in my list of best actors ever.

Im not saying they are untalented. Its just that....how do i explain this...well lets just say i rather stick with actors that doesn't require a big paycheck
Sorry for my lack of reasons, its hard to explain
Just a few thoughts on casting if this were to get made.
Haven't played the game all the way through yet, but here are my choices for some of the earlier characters:
LaCroix: Damian Lewis
Mercurio: Sam Rockwell
Jeanette / Therese: Julie Benz
Smiling Jack: Danny Huston
Nines Rodriguez: Freddy Rodriguez
VV: Alyssa Milano
What do you reckon?
Ming Xiao - Lucy Liu
"These hands! I can't get them off my wrists!"
Ming Xiao - Ziyi Zhang. I haven't seen a better actress than she.
Humanus es pessimus Monasteriense
Here's my suggestion for actors:
V.V. - Jennifer Tilly
http://www.launchpoker.com/players/people/-jennifer-tilly-/jen-big.jpg
Jeanette - Amy Smart
http://www.justfriendsmovie.com/img/pix/jamie.jpg
Damsel - Mena Suvari
http://www.mena-suvari.konta.waw.pl/galerie/IMAGES/mena-suvari-2.jpg
Lacroix - Gaspard Ulliel or Thomas Kretschmann
http://biblioharlot.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/gaspard_ulliel.jpg
http://bilder4.weltbild.de/emvbg/bg-z0516541.jpg
Nines - Rodrigo Santaro or Gael GarcĂa Bernal

http://imdb.com/gallery/granitz/2643/Events/2643/GaelGarcia_Grani_3970 955_400.jpg.html?hint=nm0305558
Isaac Abrahams - Jason Isaacs
http://kluby.o2active.cz/s/iz/id15009.jpg
Smiling Jack - Kris Kristoffersen
http://wham.canoe.ca/news/2005/09/28/whamkris1.jpg
Ming Xiao - Michelle Yeoh
http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/ columbia_pictures/memoirs_of_a_geisha/michelle_yeoh/memoirs1.jpg
I was bored one day. Any Opinions?
"Isaac Abrahams - Jason Isaacs"
Absolutely!!!
I've seen Armando Valdez-Kennedy, who voices Nines, in a couple of other things (Six Feet Under and Sliders), and honestly I think he would be the best choice for the film version of Nines.
Check out Clive Barker's Undying: http://www.ea.com/official/undying/undying/us/main_frame.jsp
Many interesting suggestions posted here. Good suggestions in fact, with actors with the right looks for it. But somehow I'm not quite satisfied with the female line ups.
Drew barrymore as VV? huh??? Well, shes definately gotta be deep voiced, sultry seductress.
Mena Suvari didnt quite look the part for damsel either. Too sweet looking. Probably someone more like avril lavinge.
Lucy Liu for Ming Xiao. Not that I don't love Michelle Yeoh, just that she looks too wise and nice. Lucy looks more the part. Oh...probably Bai Ling too.
And erm...La Croix should be pretty boy. Who's pretty enough eh? Leonardo?
Kris Kristoffersen ist sadly too old for acting a vampire, otherwise he would be a cool choice.
Jennifer Tilly is both too old and not attractive enough for V.V.
Amy Smart is IMHO not the right type of attractive for Jeanette/Therese. I would say she'd be great for Damsel, albeit I wonder if she would like to play such an angry person.
Mena Suvari is a great choice for an Aerie if anyone would want to make a movie out of Baldur's Gate 2, but for Damsel she's wrong on all levels.

DiCaprio did pretty well in Basketball Diaries and What's Eating Gilbert Grape at that...

"I have often laughed at weaklings
who thought themselves good because
they had no claws."
My vote would go for Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Lacroix, I think he has both the looks and voice for Lacroix. Watch him in Match Point with Lacroix in mind.
shareSmiling Jack: Rob Zombie
Theo Bell (hes from the comics): DMX
Nines: Johnny Depp
Malk male: Shaggy 2 Dope
I'm sorry but you need to concentrate on the most infamous vampire the masquerade characters such as:
Anatole (malkavian)
Lucita (Lasombra)
Beckett (Gangrel)
Victoria Ash (Toreador)
Theo Bell (Brujah)
Sascha Vykos (Tzimisce)
Fatima (Assamite)
Smiling Jack (Brujah)
Hesha Ruhadze (Setite)
Jan Pieterzoon (Ventrue)
etc...
among others!
I suppose you're refering to pencil-and-paper characters here. But i think they're kinda talking about the computer game one.
shareI thought Theo was in the game at the start with the hispanic dude the black bald guy unless i was seeing things
sharerob zombie as jack would be a very good choice. as for nines i'd pick edward norton and get him to beef up a little.
i haven't got a clue for anyone else though, especially my favourite, beckett.
Omg yes. American History X Edward Norton as Nines Rodriguez.
I actually think Anthony Stewart Head, if he had long hair would make a fantastic Beckett.
http://l.yimg.com/img.tv.yahoo.com/tv/us/img/site/39/18/0000003918_20060919213147.jpg
Lucy Liu as Ming Xiao
Chris Barrie as Stanley Gimble!
His voice sounds kinda similar (when he's playing Rimmer in Red Dwarf, but he's awesome at impressions, he could totally nail the character).
Jeremy Irons as Smiling Jack.
I actually think that Jack Black could do a good Bishop Vick as well..odd I know!
Nines Rodriguez - Lou Diamond Phillips
Damsel - Avril Lavigne
Smiling Jack - Lemmy
Skelter - J August Richards
Beckett - Alexis Denisof (would need to work on the voice)
VV - Monica Belucci
Lacroix - Geordie Johnson
Jeanette/Therese - Clare Kramer (She is hot, and can definately do crazy)
Heather Poe - Brigid Branagh
Ming Xiao - Zhang Ziyi
Damn somebody beat me too it suggesting Jack should be played by Lemmy. There is an npc mod that has Jack in a Motorhead jacket, so i guess that is why it seems so right for me.
Maximillian Strauss - Patrick Stewart (OK i know hes white, but he is bald and has that gravitas)
Lacroix - Tom Cruise (I just don't trust him!)
Damsel – Winnona Ryder
Pisha – Christina Ricci
Could certainly see Al Pacino as Beckett & Jennifer Tilly as VV

Here's my suggestions!
Sebastian LaCroix: Ewan McGregor (he's a cracking actor, but has never really been given the chance to go evil. I think he'd be great at it.)
Smiling Jack: Gary Oldman (again, everyone'll be thinking 'why the hell?', but I think he has it in him)
Nines Rodriguez: Christian Bale (so many British guys! But I think he's got the charisma for it)
Gary Golden: Benicio del Toro (every time i hear Gary speak I just think of Benicio, I think he's made for the part)
Maximillian Strauss: Michael Crawford (he has that high-class formality, with little twinklings of charm that I think would make Strauss more interesting)
Isaac: Jeremy Irons (Needs no explaination)
Vandal: Mackenzie Crook (I know Vandal looked much less emaciated, but I think he has that leering nastiness)
Damsel: Avril Lavigne (got this idea from a previous post; annoying, never shuts up...and would look hot with red hair and fangs :D)
Skelter: Laurence Fishbourne (Dunno why, it just...works!)
Mercurio: Paul Bettany (Again, this was like Gary, ever since I first saw Mercurio he was Paul Bettany)
I'll update this when I think of some more :D
Lost, Lost, Lost. I've Lost My Marbles.
Welcome To The Terrordome!
Wow... these are probably some of the best suggestions I've read so far on this board.
Someone earlier said Julie Benz as Jeanette/Therese, and I think I'd have to second that opinion. The voice doesn't exactly match, but I could definitely see her doing the split personality crazy thing well.
[deleted]
Harrison Ford as Beckett, just for the fun of it
"That thing belongs in a museum!"
I like many of your choices
> Nines Rodriguez: Christian Bale
Actually, he could also play LaCroix and maybe even better at it. Maybe swap Bale and McGregor ?
> Gary Golden: Benicio del Toro
Ok, del Toro is another really great actor, but purely from visuals I dont think he would be such a great choice for a Nosferatu.
> Damsel: Avril Lavigne
... can she act ?

the acting/style Gustaf SkarsgĂĄrd had in snapphanar could make him suitable for the role of lacroix. since lacroix were embraced when he were a general in Napoleons army or something like that. and for the role of smiling jack i just cant think of enyone else than machete but only for the looks :D
shareBritney Murphy as Jeanette sounds like a good choice. Or maybe Xenia Seeburg from Lexx?
sharesome great choices there...
personally.
Ed Norton or Bale could very well do Nines Rodriguez. Both have the personality and the charisma. Maybe even Clive Owen...though I might be stretching it :D
Jonathan Rhys-Meyers for Lacroix. Absolutely. He has the looks and portrays the power-hungry yet spoiled-rich-kid personality perfectly.
Jason Isaacs as Isaac Abrams. do i even need to justify it? besides the looks, he has that intelligent classy persona so needed for Abrams.
Jeanette/Therese - not sure but could really see Jaime King pulling it off. She has a certain amount of class to balance out the sexuality which would be great for playing the sisters.
Smiling Jack - ashamed to say it, but for some reason seeing Johnny Depp. Probably so used to seeing him bearded in PotC, that the image is engraved in my brain.
VV - this is a tough one. Maybe Christina Hendricks. She's absolutely gorgeous, talented and has that air of sensual mystery and danger to her. Plus the fact that she's a redhead wouldn't hurt :)
Nines Rodriguez - The multi-talented...Gary Coleman
Lacroix - Garfield
Isaac Abrams - Miley Cyrus
Jeanette/Therese - Miss Swan
Smiling Jack - Jessica Alba
VV - Milla Jovovich :)
Sheriff - Dakota Fanning (with all those martial arts movies, she is perfect)
Beckett - Stewie Griffin (perfect)
Damsel - Rossanne Barr
Bach - Christopher Walken
Ming-Xiao - Lindsy Lohan (the best asian actress out there)
Mercurio - Jessica Biel
Gary - Denise Richards
Ash - Christopher Walken
Romeo - Leonardo DiCaprio
Heather Poe - Michael Jackson
Christopher Walken as two guys in one movie! Awesome :D
I've had a few more thoughts since last time (my previous posts has the other characters, but here's new ones I thought of)
V.V.: Jennifer Tilly (Yes, yes, oh god yes! *shifty eyes* although if I'm totally honest, the person who most looks like V.V. is my ex-girlfriend, but hey!)
The guy in the Red Spot whose name escapes me at the moment: Ashton Kutcher (duuuuuuude)
Andrei: Christopher Walken (he's EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEvil)
More when I think of them!
Lost, Lost, Lost. I've Lost My Marbles.

I could go for most of those choices. Some of them I don't know, but if they made a movie with that cast I don't think I'd be disappointed.
Except for Bale. I LOVE Christian Bale, but Nines is Hispanic, and Bale most definitely is not. They need to stick with people who at least share part of the ethnic background of the character.

Check out Clive Barker's Undying:
http://www.ea.com/official/undying/undying/us/main_frame.jsp
just throwing my thoughts in:
Smiling Jack: i think Gary Oldman
Nines: Ed Norton
Ming Xiao: Ziyi Zhang
Damsel: Emma Stone (personally, i think avril is just bad type-casting, plus Emma can actually act and just has more to offer)
Gary: i like the idea of Benicio del Toro, with the right make up he would be great
Skelter: is Colombus Short too young?
VV: impossible for me to imagine anyone pulling her off well. i don't know enough about Tilly to say anything
Jeanette/Therese: i don't know lol a part of me wants to say brittany murphy but the other part says ugh no way lol
Old thread, but I have to suggest Hudson Leick for Jeanette/Therese. When I first played, I originally thought that she was the voice actor for those two after watching her prance around all sexy/crazy as Callisto in Xena.
She's hot, and she does crazy well.
Aaah that one.
I have to say I'm rather underwhelmed by her performance in Xena, and also she's too old for the part.
Sadly vampires dont age and most of them look around 20 to 30.

Naaaah.
Edward Norton cant play ANY Brujah. Not Nines, not Smiling Jack, forget it. That guy plays a nazi and still makes it look like he's playing an intellectual.
He could, for example, play Beckett. Or Strauss.
