Fan Casting Adaptational Seriousness

Role added by jeremyelcuervo on September 7, 2023

Make Suggestion

Description of Adaptational Seriousness:

The logical flipside of Adaptational Comic Relief: a character with a known sense of humor (or at least a lighthearted side) is made more serious or just humourless in an adaptation. Can result in a character being The Stoic. May also come from an Adaptational Angst Upgrade. Cases of Adaptational Villainy or Adaptational Jerkass are also likely options, as the character's more nastier or sinister portrayal extracts them from any comedic moments they once had, although the opposite can also apply if the character in question was a Comedic Sociopath or a Smug Snake.
