I am in an anime club at the college that I attend, and for one of our activities, we were going to come up with live-action casts for our favorite anime. We thought it would be fun, despite the fact that nearly every time you make a live-action version of an anime, you've signed that anime's death warrant. I've been coming up with ideas for a live-action or CGI version of Code Geass. (I tend to think a CGI version would work better, like with Astro Boy, because people tend to cast non-asians as Japanese characters, like in Dragonball Evolution.) I'll put in my ideas for you to look at here. Let me know what you think of the casting choices. If you have any ideas, I welcome them. Keep in mind, this is not for a real thing, but for pure, goofy fun.
Lelouch Lamperouge - Zachary Quinto/Johnny Yong Bosch
Suzaku Kururugi - Zac Efron
C.C. - Claire Danes
Shirley Fenette - Hilary Duff
Kallen Stadtfeld/Kozuki - Kristen Stewart/Scarlett Johansson
Milly Ashford - Ashley Tisdale
Rivalz Cardemonde - Jesse Eisenberg/Anton Yelchin
Nina Einstein - Annasophia Robb
Nunnally Lamperouge - Abigail Breslin
Kaname Ohgi - Christian Bale
Kyoshiro Tohdoh - Lou Diamond Phillips/Jet Li
Kaguya Sumeragi - Daveigh Chase
Villetta Nu - Jada Pinkett-Smith
Bartley Asprius - Mickey Rourke
Lloyd Asplund - Michael Sheen
Cecile Croomy - Gwyneth Paltrow
Rakshata Chawla - Penelope Cruz
Mao - Aaron Eckhart
Clovis la Britannia - Jude Law
Cornelia li Britannia - Charlize Theron
Schneizel el Britannia - Rupert Everett
Charles zi Britannia - David Bowie/Tim Curry/Jeff Bridges
Please let me know what you think of these, keeping in mind that I realize something like this would most likely never happen. I realize some of my choices are kind of iffy, and I'm open to any suggestions.
P.S. Yes, I know Johnny Yong Bosch is Lelouch's real voice actor. I just put it down because I thought there might be some people who'd be put off if Bosch didn't play Lelouch.|||*sigh* Yeah, cause saying only asians can voice anime characters is SO not racist. . .
But anyway. . .I have to say I approve simply because you have David Bowie in there. I'm not even sure if his voice would work for the character, but my love for him outshines my hatred of Zac Efron and all the evil in the world. . .|||JUST, NO.
Have asians cast as asians. I'm tired of this racist system! Especially not Zac Efron %26amp; Ashley Tisdale!
