Hypothetical Celebrity Casting

We decided to hypothetically cast a celebrity as our protagonist/ antagonist to help us finalise the look and style we wish for our actor to have. Doing this has forced us to consider every aspect of the protagonist's look carefully so that when it comes to casting our actor, we have the most suitable fit subsidising our hypothetical actor.

We came up with two potential actors to play our antagonist when thinking of potential celebrities. This was because we could not decide on the ethnicity of our protagonist. A British/ American actor could make our protagonist more relatable, however an African actor could allow us to show more diversity. This caused us to cast two hypothetical actors, one for each ethnicity, which would we then decide upon at auditions.

The white actor that we would hypothetically cast is Tom Hiddleston. This is because he has a smart and yet slightly mystical quality to his features, with his sparkling eyes and chizzled jaw line. These qualities would give our protagonist a distinct mystery about his character, making the transition into the protagonist seem almost unnoticeable which is what is intended.













The black actor that we would hypothetically cast is Donald "Don" Cheadle. This is because he appears mature in personality yet not in physicality which would make the transition between protagonist and antagonist more simple. Further to this, he also has an air of mystery about him, as well as a sense of intimidation. This would be perfect for when he transitions into the antagonist.
