Anyone miscast in your opinion?


I think Chris Hemsworths brother is awful. He looks like he should be playing the lead in a canadian science fiction B-movie that airs 10am on a sunday morning.

the young executive emissary girl doesn't do it for me either.

On a Brighter note i think Peoples Hernandez is PERFECT for this role. Anthony Hopkins and Ed Harris are perfect in everything.

no.

Evan Rachel Wood is seriously miscast as a character who doesn't appear nude in practically every episode.

Thank you. We got one boob flash and I have a supicion they wern't hers. This actress has shown breasts and full frontol since 2011. Why's she being stingy now when everyone else is pretty danm nakedd. Like the lady with the snake tattoe. Did you see where the snake ends?

reply

she was nude in the first episode. i think she's self-conscious about her boobs they are on the smaller side.

other than that i think she's great.

reply

Yes I remember the obscured shot of her breasts early on but we didn;t see anything else even though she was clearly nude many times the camera's avoidance of her was pretty contrived. This seems true of most of the main actresses but Evan Rachel's was much more noticeable. It seems only the extra's showed full frontal nudity. When each actresses nudity is so polarized between being gratuitous or sacred the show might as well have either gone with all nude compatible actresses or just not show much nudity in general as its so obvious which actresses refused to do the scenes.

Can you name some Canadian science fiction B-movies ???

reply

YES.

I agree completely; and let’s think about this: HBO prides itself on doing quality dramas. I never saw a topic about bad casting on The Sopranos, The Wire, Game Of Thrones or Big Little Lies. I did see some topics PRAISING the casting on some of those shows. I believe the concensus is that Westworld is generally well-cast and in some cases has exceptional casting. This fact raises the question: with whom did these two misfires sleep to be cast in a project like this, and who would want to sleep with them? Bland is not sexy.

brutally bad

reply

I don't know that she is miscast or is a bad actor, but I do think the writers are making her into a Mary Sue.

reply

As a take-no-frills board executive type she is about as convincing as a blueberry scone.

I am unsure on the actress herself and her acting skills though.

reply

Thandie Newton, I like her as an actress and I like the character she plays but with her posh English accent she seems misplaced in Westworld. Maybe should she should of tried an American accent or played a human instead.

reply

i guess her backstory is that she's a madam from britain? they existed in the west?

reply

Why would the even bother to make her from Britain though? Seems a bit extravagant.

reply

combination of diversity and getting the highest profile actress that can be nude a lot.

reply

I had no Idea that dude was a Hemsworth!

reply

ya he's definitely the least valueble
