ADDITION: PLEASE read through the trope description provided before submitting something. It's not a huge deal but too often people submit characters that don't fit just because they misinterpreted the title...

Fan Casting In Name Only(In Name Only Adaptation)

Role added by connieblackwood on April 10, 2023

Back to Top Make Suggestion
Description of In Name Only (In Name Only Adaptation):

This occurs when a derivative work (an adaptation, a remake, or a reimagining) is so different from the work it took its name from that the only thing actually tying it to the original work is the title, a few character names and, if lucky, the broad premise. It would stand perfectly as an original work if references to the source were removed. This can happen when the work was originally intended as something completely different, but, being slightly similar to an existing franchise, it is changed to fit in that franchise, or it can be straight-up title hijack.
