You do know it's like 13 actors per movie maximum, right?

[H.G. Hansen]

No it's for the whole series because me and admin are planning whole series a whole trilogy and then have somebody do the other three movies after it.

[Admin]

Some characters will probably still need to be trimmed to get under the limit. Also, Randall Flagg and The Man in Black are the same character.

For what roles?

[Admin]

I believe he just went in the order you posted them in.

Regarding Overhouser: unfortunately Powers Boothe is dead.

[H.G. Hansen]

Shit really? Damn heaven takes the good ones then J.k. Simmons, Max von Sydow, Christopher Plummer, William Hurt, Michael Caine, Richard gere, Clint Eastwood, Warren Beatty, Jeff bridges, Martin Sheen, stellsm starsgard, Chris North, or Ryan O'Neal

[apj]

I'm not going to go through the entire list, because that just seems daunting. I would say stay away from anyone involved in that turd of a Dark Tower movie they made (so no Elba, no McConaughey even though he was the only decent part). I'm just going to go through some of the important characters of the series, and will probably add some names you haven't listed.

Roland: Russell Crowe, Daniel Craig, Michael Fassbender, Keanu Reeves
The Man in Black: Viggo Mortensen (too old for Roland), Mel Gibson, Jared Leto, Benicio del Toro, Liam Neeson, Walton Goggins
Eddie Dean: Eddie Redmayne, Miles Teller, Aaron Paul, Paul Dano
Susannah Dean: Viola Davis, Kerry Washington, Sanaa Lathan
Jake Chambers: Jack Dylan Glazer, Noah Schnapp, Jacob Tremblay
Sylvia Pittston: Melissa McCarthy, Chrissy Metz
Cort: Ray Winstone

.....

Can you number it down to 1 pick each?

[apj]

I was just kind of spitballing, but I suppose if I had to just pick one for each, it would look something like....
Roland: Keanu Reeves
Man in Black: Liam Neeson
Eddie Dean: Paul Dano
Susannah Dean: Sanaa Lathan
Jake Chambers: Noah Schnapp
Sylvia Pittston: Chrissy Metz
Cort: Ray Winstone

[H.G. Hansen]

Thanks for your help. Cause I'm gonna think deep and hard about how to test for this because it's going to be the first and second novel be together
