Okay, I can't be the only one who really sees this game in an entirely cinematic sense, right? I basically maintain an ongoing Star Wars movie in my head to show the action from the table.

One of the most fun pieces I have with it is the casting of the parts of guys who haven't been in the movies.

I have a few regulars.

First, I think Benedict Cumberbatch would be an awesome Baron Soontir Fel. Cool, calculated, refined, and deadly, with an aristocrats air about him... he IS a Baron, after all.

For "Whisper" I imagine Byung-hun Lee (the assassin from Red 2 and Storm Shadow from the GI Joe movies) but with long hair, played almost in an arrogant, uber-gamer, high tech type of air about him.

Maybe Tom Hardy (from Inception and Batman) as Dash Rendar? I feel like he could charm his way through that role but still seem believable and tough?

I'd love to work Tom Hiddleston (Loki from the Marvel movies) in there somewhere as an Imperial... but who? I DO need an "Echo"...

Anyway... I always enjoy imagining the movie that my game is creating! Anyone else have any in-their-head casting?

Won't even post asking how many people make astromech noises or TIE fighter noises...

Cumberbatch would make a better Maarek Stele imo. Fel would probably look like Bruce Willis.

Michelle Rodriguez or Moon Bloodgood as Echo? I still associate Echo as a female.

Emilia Clarke as Juno Eclipse.

To be fair, I know nothing of the expanded universe...I've never read the comics or anything, so I make up my own background to suit what I think the name would be:). The Baron Soontir Fel doesn't feel, to me, like a tough dude, but more refined:). And who says echo needs to be a girl?

Jason Statham as Kir Kanos.

This is fun!

Emilia Clarke as Juno Eclipse.

If we're going to draw from Game of Thrones, why not Carice van Houten as Kath Scarlet?

I can get behind that.

On the subject of GoT, Kit Harrington would make a decent Corran...

How about Michelle Rodriguez for Howlrunner?

How about Michelle Rodriguez for Howlrunner?

because she always dies?

And a little butch for my tastes.

Also, yes.

Benedict Cumberbatch is Admiral Thrawn. I can't unsee it.

As Soontir Fel i would think Fassbender.

Oh, I like that Thrawn. Yeah.

And Fassbender is great... He can do almost any role.

It is a lot more fun to cast the bad guys for some reason:)

Based on the latest FAQ, Echo is female too. So... Lena Headey for me...

IIRC, Fel grew up on a farm and was awarded his Barony. So he could be a tough guy or more refined I guess.

Aarron Paul perhaps? (thinking need for speed)

Nathan Fillion for Kyle Katarn. He would basically be playing a slightly modified version of Malcolm Reynolds.

Jessica Biel for Jan Oars.

Jessica Biel for Jan Oars.

If acting is involved, No.

Maybe. I don't like Jon Snow all that much, but that may not be the fault of the actor.

Wait a minute! Isn't there some sort of unspoken rule that Mexican actors/actresses are not allowed to be in Sci-Fi? (I kid, of course. I'm married to a Latina, so I can get away with statements like that.)

Anyway, I endorse it! Michelle Rodriguez for Howlrunner 2014.

And a little butch for my tastes.

I actually rather like that.

Nathan Fillion for Kyle Katarn. He would basically be playing a slightly modified version of Malcolm Reynolds.

Yes!

Benedict Cumberbatch is Admiral Thrawn. I can't unsee it.

As Soontir Fel i would think Fassbender.

I 100% agree Cumberbatch would make an excellent grand admiral (even though he technically isn't a pilot in X-wing).

Nathan Fillion for Kyle Katarn. He would basically be playing a slightly modified version of Malcolm Reynolds.

Gimme alan tudyk as janson, since he was known as a prankster

Jessica Biel for Jan Oars.

If acting is involved, No.

Olivia munn looks much closer to the original actress in the pc game.

And as far as howlrunner.....meh why not scarlett johansson.
