Pascal is great casting for Joel

The actress Im not so sure about, she was great in GoT but she was really young in that role and I dont think shes an American actress so hopefully she can use an American accent better than Sophie Turner has managed in some of her roles

I'm excited, but I've seen a lot of disappointed people over this choice. Mainly because they wanted someone else, such as Nikolaj-Coster Waldau, to play the role.

Nah just linking you to a wiki page of who she is considering youre confused as fuck about who a well known actor is.

anyway they look so alike would have thought theyd cast her

He's pointing out that you're using the wrong name and misgendering the actor even after posting their wiki page.

Oh my bad was wondering how dude can be so confused

but Elliot is still playing a girl on Netflix so not really sure why playing a girl in a future role would be out of the realm of possibility

Apparently Elliot's transition is going to be addressed in Umbrella Academy. Honestly, considering the creatives behind the show, I wouldn't be surprised if Vanya turns out non-binary.

Uh, yeah I was joking because you're not supposed to deadname people. Anyway, I'm not sure if he could pull off a 14 year old character anymore.

The more I hear about this the more I'm looking forward to it. Pascal is a good actor, HBO has a solid track record, and they got the guy who did Chernobyl as well as Neil Druckmann adapting it for TV.

Didn't they not get Page's permission to use their likeness as a character model? I doubt they'd want to star in a series after that. Plus, Page is in their 30s now. Isn't that character underage? Not that actors don't play younger characters but why not get a younger actor if you can?

I thought this was another game. Beyond: Two Souls or something. I do think there is something to the age thing though, I imagine they aren't super keen to be playing young girls.

I think the "controversy" with Beyond Two Souls was that they had a full naked body of her that is rendered in game but hidden.

I was wrong and Jen was right. He did call out Naughty Dog for taking his likeness. He said he would have been flattered if he wasn't already acting for Beyond Two Souls.

Also, apparently they are looking at the girl who played Lady Mormont to play Ellie, which I think is a great casting choice.

Yes! I think she's been casted. Great role for her to go to after GOT.

resembles her enough. She is a great actress anyway, and I think she would do well with the role. Better to have someone who can act the role well over someone who looks exactly like a character model made.

They actually changed Ellie's appearance to look younger and less like Page after the backlash. I believe they claimed it was unintentional?

yeah, pre release footage of the original game got criticism for Ellies face because it looked too much like her so they changed it
