True Blood Fantasy Casting Call Poll

[hobbitofkobol]

so superfrayed and I are still trying to pick our ideal Alcide and thanks to your suggestions I am now making a poll!

We have... 10 actors to choose from. Of course I'm including a reminder of what the character looks like and pictures of the candidates.

Note: this is fantasy casting. Who cares if said actor would never be on TV or is already on another show.



Description I included yesterday

He was huge. His eyes were green. His tousled hair was curly and thick and black as pitch. His brain buzzed and pulsed with energy; kind of a red effect. Werewolf.
[...]
Alcide Herveaux looked plenty tough. He was big as a boulder, with biceps that I could do pull-ups on. He would have to shave a second time if he planned on going out in the evening. He would fit right in on a construction site or a wharf.

He's protective and warm (vs the cold vampires) and likes leaning on walls while crossing his arms and is as tall as Eric (good luck with that). And can pull off a southern accent I guess, though this part can always be changed, or learned.

Oh and a few more things, I think Alcide is in his late 20's and Eric is 6' 4" (1.93 m) if you want to compare.

Who to play Alcide?



Jeffrey Dean Morgan, 43, 6' 2" (1.88 m)
(though he's too old and could be Daddy Herveaux? after all he plays Jensen&Jared's dad)








Channing Tatum, 29, 6' 1" (1.85 m)








Owain Yeoman, 31, 6' 4" (1.93 m)








Tahmoh Penikett, 34, 6' 2½" (1.89 m) (it was not MY idea, I swear)








Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, 39, 6' 2½" (1.89 m)








Colin Farrell, 34, 5' 10" (1.78 m)








Jake Gyllenhaal, 29, 6' (1.83 m)








Joe Manganiello, 32, 6' 5" (1.96 m) (that's Brad from HIMYM! lol)








Karl Urban, 37, 6' 1" (1.85 m)








Joshua Jackson, 31, 6' 2" (1.88 m)

It was FANTASTIC! I already LOVED Kurt but I love him so much more, his little dance pre-kick? OMGDED!

And everyone's all up being mad at Rachel which I get, but I was far more offended by Quinn and her manipulation of Finn :( Also I may be a tad jealous that she slept w/ Puck but W/E.

And I loved hearing Tina sing but at the same time I wish we'd heard more singing.. but I don't care because I LOVED the ep!

I started watching Bones but then had to make dinner.. I got as far as the part with Hodgins and the cat poop! lol. Poor guy....

While I was making dinner though I watched Cougar Town... it wasn't as bad as I expected.. dare I say I kind of liked it? Only kind of but still!!

I KNOW! KURT <333
and when he came out to his dad? I cried
I also cried when Finn went to see Mr Schue. Poor Finn, he's really not smart but such a good guy!

you know what'd be great? to make the girls/women on this show more likable lol

yay Tina!!! I was so happy for her too!

haha yeah cat poop

I kinda liked Cougar Town too. Acting was a bit over the top (it often is for comedy pilots) but I found it quite funny. Not as much as Modern Family but still.

lol those were the 2x I teared up too! AW! I loved that Kurt's dad was ok with it! It was cute when he was like ... are you sure??? haha, cute!

I loved Busy Phillips on Cougar Town! And it's great to have Courtney Cox back on tv, I like her! And her son, I liked him on his show last year, he's a cutie.


I haven't seen MOdern Family yet but I heard it was awesome@!!

yeah at first you think he's that macho redneck dad who's gonna yell at him and then he accepts him <3

yay Busy Phillips! I also like Christa Miller though her character = pretty much her character on Scrubs.

which show was he on?

[superfrayed.livejournal.com]

Christa Miller needs to lay off the plastic surgery though, omg she's hardly recognizeable from her Drew Carey days! CRAZAY!

The kid used to be on Aliens in America which I thought was an amusing show!!
