Mass Effect Trology Movie Cast.

edited July 2016 in General Chat

If the Mass Effect Trilogy had been a movie series, who would you have picked for the cast?

Here are my picks....

  • Hugh Jackman - as Commander Shepard.
  • Jennifer Garner - as Ashley Williams.
  • Willem Dafoe - as Garrus Vakarian.
  • John Goodman - as Wrex.
  • Samuel L. Jackson - as Captain/Admiral Anderson.
  • Idris Elba - as Saren.
  • Keira Knightley - as Miranda Lawson.
  • Megan Fox - as Liara.
  • Natalie Portman - as Jack.
  • Dougray Scott - as Thane.
  • James Roday - as Joker.
  • Ben Kingsley - as Harbinger.
  • Martin Sheen - as the Illusive Man.
  • Tom Huddleston - as Kai-Lang.

  • I don't really have anyone in mind, so I'll just go through your list, if you don't mind.

    Hugh Jackman.

    Need to explain your choice there.

    Jennifer Garner.

    Same here.

    Willem Dafoe.

    Could work, but since it's not gonna involve much screentime (or any, probably just voice-acting), it's better to involve Garrus' VA.

    John Goodman.

    Not sure why you picked him, either.

    Samuel L. Jackson.

    That could actually work, but Jackson works better when he's allowed to be... expressive, to say the least. Anderson is a tad bit different.

    Idris Elba.

    Again, don't know why you picked him. Fred Tatascoire (he played Saren in ME1) did a great job.

    Keira Knightley.

    She doesn't have a proper appearance for Miranda. IMO, it would've been better to cast Yvonne Strahovski (who was both the voice and likeness for Miranda).

    Megan Fox.

    She has the sex appeal, but that's not necessarily the vibe Liara gave off at first or even later on. Not sure about this pick.

    Natalie Portman.

    She doesn't strike me as someone fit to play Jack, but that might work. I'm just not 100% sure.

    Dougray Scott.

    Don't know anything about him. Might work, might not work.

    James Roday.

    Don't know much about him, either. He looks the part, but it might be better to get Seth Greene who played Joker in the game. He even looks similar.

    Ben Kingley.

    Harbinger is a voice-acting role. Again, I'd argue for the need to involve a VA from the games. In this case, Keith Szarabajka.

    Martin Sheen.

    No argument here.

    Timothy Huddleston.

    You sure you don't mean Tom Hiddleston? He might be great as Kai Leng, actually.

  • Megan Fox - as Liara.

    You cannot be serious.
