Character Face-Off: Who did it best?

Character Face-Off: Who did it best? Asking which actor delivered your favourite performance from a collection of all-time classic fictional characters (and some more modern ones too). Join the debate!

The Rings of Power

My Revised Casting for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. (Some the same, some different) 'An epic drama set thousands of years before the events of 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth.' (IMDB)

The Edge Chronicles

An imagined TV series adaptation of The Edge Chronicles, transporting viewers to a world of sky pirates and floating citadels. The narrative unfolds through three interconnected sagas, each centred around the protagonist characters of Quint, Twig, and Rook. The series starts with Twig's saga, chronicling his adventures as he discovers his true identity and grapples with his impending destiny. As Twig's journey unfolds, we discover more about Quint, through flashbacks we see his adventures as a young sky pirate, navigating the treacherous skies, uncovering long-lost secrets and facing formidable adversaries. Finally, Rook's saga takes centre stage (Twig's grandchild), as the action-packed narrative follows his quest, confronting ancient evils and attempting to restore balance to The Edge.
