Fan CastingThe Crow

by James O'Barr

Story added by masterfilmmaker on August 24, 2024

An alternative cast for the 1994 Brandon Lee classic. As usual with all my lists, the thing I'm doing is that I'm plucking out individual actors from the ideal point in their age to play the role assigned to them here. So, if you think to yourself "He can't play _____________________, he's way too old/dead!", remember what I said, okay? Got it? Good.

Fan CastingThe Killer (Alternative Hollywood Remake)

by John Woo

Story added by masterfilmmaker on July 21, 2024

An alternative remake of John Woo's The Killer, but actually good. As usual with all my lists, I'm picking actors from a specific point in their career, which may not always be the present, so don't be shocked if you see an actor who's "too old" on this list. The movie's already been made anyway so this is purely for fun. Got it? Good.

Fan CastingNinja Scroll (Hollywood version)

by Yoshiaki Kawajiri

Story added by masterfilmmaker on May 31, 2024

A Westernized, American live-action remake of the 1993 anime classic by Yoshiaki Kawajiri. As usual with all my lists, I'm grabbing actors from any point in their careers to play the role in the present i.e. a early 2000's Eric Bana can Jubei in 2024.

Fan CastingDon't Look Away (the good version)

by Michael Bafaro

Story added by masterfilmmaker on February 8, 2024

The so-bad-its-good horror disasterpiece of 2023 about a killer mannequin, but if it was made by an actual competent director/actors.

Fan CastingKung Fu Hustle (Hollywood Version)

by Stephen Chow

Story added by masterfilmmaker on June 12, 2023

A hypothetical American remake of the 2004 Stephen Chow film. As usual with all my castings, actors can be plucked from any point in their careers.

Fan CastingOldboy (Alternative American Cast)

by Garon Tsuchiya

Story added by masterfilmmaker on August 21, 2022

An alternative Hollywood remake cast of Park Chan-wook's South Korean classic, Oldboy. NOTE: this is just for fun, as I have no desire to see another Westernized version of the same story after Spike Lee's lackluster attempt. Also, as usual with all my lists, I'm choosing actors/filmmakers from any era at any point in their career (think as if I had a time travelling DeLorean on me).

Fan CastingTeen Titans: The Movie

by Bob Haney and Bruno Premiani

Story added by masterfilmmaker on July 5, 2022

A live-action adaptation of Teen Titans that would be part based on the comics, part based on the 2003 show, and even parts based on Teen Titans Go! and Titans in places. As usual with all my lists, the rule is that I can cast actors from any era at any point in their career as I'd like, so the fact that _____________ may be too old to play __________________ now would NOT matter, as this is ju...

Fan CastingThe Perfect James Bond Reboot (hypothetically)

by Ian Fleming

Story added by masterfilmmaker on April 11, 2022

With Daniel Craig having just hung up his tux (or more like incinerated in the flames of his fiery death), a a complete reboot of the 007 universe should be arriving in the next three to five years. These are NOT actual cast suggestions for the new series, this is just a hypothetical list of actors I'd like to get had if I had a time machine that could bring people in and out of any era to play...

Fan CastingThe Disaster Artist (Alternate Cast)

by Greg Sestero

Story added by masterfilmmaker on April 1, 2022

An alternate cast for a film adaptation of Greg Sestero's autobiography on the making of The Room, The Disaster Artist. As usual, my rule is that this is the cast I would pick if I had a time machine and could bring any actor from the distant past into the present at any point in their career to make this movie today. I would also like to note, that while I didn't hate James Franco's The Disast...
