The Ultimate Elden Ring Movie Fan Cast That Will Leave You Speechless

A fan of Elden Ring has taken a unique approach in considering the potential cast for a film adaptation by aiming to make it intentionally terrible. Despite the fact that the game's narrative is not traditionally structured, the idea of having renowned actors portray characters like Godfrey and Radahn is still intriguing.

Historically, video game adaptations have struggled to achieve success in the film and television industries, but HBO's The Last of Us managed to capture a significant amount of mainstream attention and critical acclaim earlier this year. As a result, it's unsurprising that other PlayStation titles such as God of War and Ghost of Tsushima are also set to make their way to television screens. However, these games have a solid narrative foundation, providing a blueprint for any adaptation to follow. Departure from the source material has repeatedly been cited as a problem, which was a common criticism of Paramount's Halo series. While Elden Ring is comparatively easier to comprehend than FromSoftware's previous titles, it's still a game that requires a considerable amount of explanation, as evidenced by the popularity of Dark Souls lore videos on YouTube.

Fans continue to dream about the possible cast for Elden Ring, and one Reddit user took it upon themselves to create a theoretical cast list. While some of the choices were questionable, others were surprisingly fitting. For instance, Arnold Schwarzenegger as Godfrey, the first Elden Lord, would be a believable and exciting transformation.

After receiving suggestions from other users, the same Reddit user came back with a part two of the cast list. Perhaps the most standout choice was Owen Wilson as Radagon, which would add a humorous touch to the final boss fight. Fans even joked about a potential mod that would have Wilson's famous "wow" catchphrase play whenever Radagon deflects a spell from the Tarnished.

Despite the absence of a potential film adaptation for Elden Ring, fans of FromSoftware remain satisfied. While rumors of a Bloodborne series have circulated for years, it often causes concern for Soulsborne veterans who doubt the feasibility of an adaptation, especially without the guidance of Hidetaka Miyazaki. This same sentiment extends to discussions of a Bloodborne remake or sequel, with many fans disinterested in the IP unless FromSoftware is involved. Elden Ring is currently available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
