okay my very serious fancast for fablehaven (would never happen because some actors should be ten years younger at least)
Emma Watson as Kendra Sorenson
Okay, I know it's hard to unsee her as Hermione but look at her. Especially with her hair like that: SHE IS KENDRA. Her dubious hair color and texture, even the clothes are like... Kendra definitely dress like that.
Walker Scobell as Seth Sorenson
Well, in my head Seth has brown hair. But Walker would have played him so well PLEASE. Plus Emma and him could pass as brother and sister. Anyway this one is mostly for vibes but I do think taking a random chaotic kid with no peculiar physical traits and dressing him in the most horrendous outfits would work just fine.
Young Colin Ford however does look like Seth too if the movie wants to go for a 2000 vibe:
Henry Collett as Gavin Rose
He looks both sweet and able to swing a sword. He already played a dragon tamer. He could be the worst man alive and no one would blame Kendra for falling for him. And TBH it's EXACTLY like that that I pictured Gavin before seeing It (2017) and starting to merge the two stuttering characters together (brain wasn't braining).
Milly Alcock as Bracken
Okay I think I need to justify myself here. But, look at her. She has a soft face, but we know she can look like a badass too. She has the pretty white hair. With a little imagination, she's totally in love with a girl trying to break her out of prison. They would be a power couple. Female Bracken would make me ship Brakendra.
Jeremys Irons as Coulter Dixon
No director instructions, just let the man plays. I just want Coulter to be the biggest hater ever and then saving Seth's life and everyone just goes Oh. Oh. (Yeah the fanfiction Oh). Like the man actually cares. I feel like Jeremy Irons would do well.
David Tennant/Pedro Pascal as Patton Burgess
Self-explanatory. Patton is a middle age man with an awesome mustache. Only those two could pull the gentleman adventurer that seduced a naiad and went on adventures around the world. I don't know which one I like more tbh!
Jared Padalecki as Warren Burgess
Then you just ask him to play like he's Dean Winchester. Because PHYSICALLY, he looks like Warren but I do believe Warren acts kinda like Dean? So yeah. But same perfect face so...
Josh Hutcherson as Dale Burgess
I swear I'll come up with something better. But like... Yeah well. I have no explanation. He could play the role just fine, especially the big brother side who's like, everyone's favorite side character. But yeah, Dale is supposed to be super tall and Josh is like... WELL not that tall. I also do remember Kendra saying Dale and Warren didn't look alike that much but had a "feeling they were from the same family" (kinda). I think that could work.
I'll do a part two when I'll find a fancast for the others lol
