Re: Worst fancasting you've seen?

Holy shit, thank you. I saw that fake movie poster that was going around for a while, and it infuriated me.

Look, when you have brilliant fancasting options for Newton, Anathema, and Adam, you can come to me and say you're fancasting Good Omens. If all you have is Crowley and Aziraphale, then you're fancasting your own slashfic and it's dishonest to pretend otherwise.

Also, way to forget that Aziraphale in the book is chubby. God forbid anyone wank to a guy who's not a skinny bishie boy.

I always pictured Aziraphale as an older dude, so any fancast with an actor under 40 is an instant "Do Not Want" for me.

Crowley, on the other hand... I think he should look more conventionally attractive, which rules out Cumberbatch.

Hiddleston doesn't have the right look for either of them, but I could sort of imagine him as Newton, maybe.

I always thought Anthony Stewart head would make a good Aziraphale. Please don't ask me where it came from, but at one point it occurred to me that Will Smith could pull off an awesome (though admittedly, not suitably British) Crowley--he's just got that way of portraying nervous or nonplused characters trying to explain their way out of awkward situations (or conversely, deadpanning while other people are freaking out) that would work hilariously well in some of the book's scenes.

I'm afraid I've got nothing for Newt, Anathema or Adam, but Alaina Huffman would make a great War.

However: the books says Aziraphale has slightly chubby hands. That implies, but doesn't establish as a fact that the rest of him is equally plump, or to what degree. Actually almost nothing is said about Aziraphale's appearance at all, apart from the fact that he wore tweed, which I always found frustrating.

ASH as Aziraphale?

New headcanon. Thanks, anon!

My pleasure :D

I have some vague headcanons for a lot of the characters but I draw a complete blank on Pollution (even though he's my favourite).
