the fact that ben barnes is actually going to be playing the darkling, kill me now. fancasting dreams become reality.

I'm so excited.

Thanks for opening the thread. I really looking forward to see this one.

Same! i'm so excited to see how they'll blend the stories together, perhaps with flashbacks?

I've read nothing about the tv show honestly.

It will be interesting to see for sure.

I think it might be the storyline with Alina, Mal & Darkling together as in the books.

Then the Dregs (Six Of Crows) is one storyline and I think they might do one with Kaz, Inej and Jesper meeting each other/becoming a team. And then Nina and Matthias has another storyline on their own with how they met?

I can be wrong, but I got the feeling that this might be the way they will go from how the cast has been interacting with each other over social media. And then their path will cross sometimes in the show?

That'd be interesting since in the books it's different times that the stories take place. I'd love to see them all interact.

Give me all the darkling interactions.

meraki · 03-02-2020, 12:26 PM

Yeah, I would love that too.

I find it funny that alot of people fancast Ben for The Darkling and then he got the role.

***madness*** · 03-02-2020, 12:42 PM

It's just one of those actors that gets fancast for a lot of bookish things.

I remember when the castlist was announced for Vampire Academy and he wasn't on it, very disappointing.

But this?? Yes, please. I believe he can truly do it justice and this have that charming air to him.

meraki · 03-03-2020, 12:12 PM

I don't think I have seen him in anything, but I can see him being perfect for the role.

***madness*** · 03-03-2020, 02:30 PM

I've only seen him in Narnia, I think.

I've seen a lot of gifsets of him in other projects where he plays darker characters so I think it'll be good. All the others are completely unknown to me, which is also exciting since I'll truly be able to see them as those characters then and no one else.
