Kelsier should be played by Steve Buscemi, Vin by Miley Cyrus , and Sazed by Samuel L. Jackson. And clearly the only person fit to play the Lord Ruler is the adorable, doe-eyed Tobey Maguire. Preach!!!!!! And Kanye West should be Elend Venture 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deldraedair Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Though, I don't think Djimon Hounsou would work as Sazed, he's too tough and impressive looking. Sazed should look more scholarly I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riversong she/her Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 I think Chris Pratt would make a good Ham, and I honestly don't know who should play Kelsier. My little sister has a massive crush on him, so he has to be good looking. (I actually caught her signing her name as Mare at one point. It was adorable.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riversong she/her Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Updated: I asked my family about it. My Mom and Dad think David Anders would be a good Kelsier, but when I asked my sister she just blushed harder than Marasi and said he had to be really cute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadence McKinnon she/her Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 I recently watched Stranger Things on Netflix. Millie Bobby Brown IS a pre-teen Vin on that series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vin is a kid in the first book, and only in her late teens in the second. Maisie Williams is already looking too old. In a few years (by the time they actually pull it together), perhaps Dafne Keen would be good, though. She was incredible for the action sequences in Logan, and while she had the strong accent (intentionally), I bet she would do fine with whatever accent they decide to use for Mistborn. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Bookwyrm he/him Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Can I just say... movies of books are usually worse than the books themselves, and usually the plot is (very) different. Take for example Percy Jackson. Kronos isn't supposed to even appear until the fourth book, and they mist (bad pun) some of the most epic scenes in the series, including: Ares vs. Percy on the beach; Nico using his powers to DESTROY the Spartus(es?); the Battle for Olympus; the Great Prophecy; and a ton of other stuff. If you aren't convinced that the books are (much) better than the films, look at Eragon for an example. The whole magic system (the Ancient Language) is gone, and it misses a ton of good scenes and stuff that has to be included for the other books to even make sense! So, they're probably going to have to make the whole thing again, but ANYWAY as I was saying, the movies are usually complete trash compared to the books, so I, for one, am completely AGAINST the notion of making Mistborn (or any other BS book, for that matter) into a film/movie, purely because I don't want to see one of the GREATEST BOOKS OF ALL TIME turned into something that is complete trash, completely messes up the magic system (which I'm sure you'll agree is FREAKING AWESOME) and probably won't make it past the first movie or so. IN CONCLUSION I don't think Mistborn should become a movie because it'll be really bad compared to the books, and I don't want to see one of my favourite books made into a cheap imitation of the grand original. Thank you for your understanding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your understanding. I don't know if you know this or not, but Cosmere movies are almost certainly going to happen. The rights have been bought, writers and adapters have agreed to the work, and a lot of money has been invested into making it work. I think that the problem with the adaptions you mention is that the people behind the films didn't respect or care about the books. They really were just trying to make some quick bucks or further their careers by gaining more experience in writing and directing. The company that's investing in the CCU (Cosmere Cinematic Universe) LOVES the cosmere. You can do the research for yourself if you want to read interviews and stuff, but they really care about the Cosmere. I think Mistborn, as a large but malleable trilogy, could be absolutely fantastic in film. It's similar in a way to Lord of the Rings. Very large, very epic, very good books, being adapted by kind of new and less experienced people who Really care about the stories. We haven't seen Millie Bobby Brown do a lot of action yet, but I do think she has the potential to be a perfect Vin when the time comes around. Heck, one of the boys might even make a good Elend. I'm curious, does anyone else think that Daniel Radcliff could make a good Lord Ruler? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your understanding. Well, there were the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings movies, and while they definitely weren't as good as the books, they were still pretty good anyway. I think the Mistborn saga has a chance to be as good as them in the form of a movie series. Not possibly as good as the books, mind you (I agree with you on that), but still pretty good anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She would have to play the character with a lot less spunk than she plays Selena, but she could work. She's probably the perfect age Right Now, which is unfortunate since cameras probably won't be rolling for idk, two years? More? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toaster Retribution he/him Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Am I the only one who thinks Billy Crudup could make a good Ruin. I seem to recall Ruins voice being fatherly, and Crudup kind of gives me that feel as well. In addition, he is a good actor, and could probably be menacing if given the chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prism Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 (edited) I think that Matt Smith would make a great Kelsier, I mean, he would definitely have the insanity and genocidal-ness down. Edited July 20, 2017 by Prism 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
