BioShock Fan Cast

-- if it were possible to have any person cast as my andrew ryan, it would hands down, without question, be the legendary vincent price. unfortunately, he's dead. 

so, i had to think long and very hard about the actors living. it's nice to have them also appear similar to the character, but they need to be able to actually portray the character. and the only actor living who could successfully and beautifully give the performance of the complex character of andrew ryan...

as ANDREW RYAN

-- is underrated actor, ioan grufford. though 10 years junior to fontaine's fan cast, he could easily be made to look older and with dialect coaching, could be a great andrew ryan. need convincing? watch his show 'forever.'

as FRANK FONTAINE

-- i mean, i really hope this doesn't need a reason. it's mark strong as one of the best villains (imo) in the video game universe.

as JACK RYAN

-- so, not only did jack need a great actor, but someone who looked like the son of andrew ryan and jasmine jolene. it's a no-brainer that it's taron.

as SANDER COHEN

-- not only does he look like sander, but just watch his performance in the artist.

as YI SUCHONG

-- reason one: he's done more than show us his acting chops for a role like suchong. reason two: lOOK AT HIM IN GLASSES. if that's not suchong, idk man.

as J.S. STEINMAN

-- "but steinman is white" there are enough white people in this fan cast. i'll admit, i haven't seen a lot of his acting, but from what i have seen, i bet he can pull off a damn good steinman.

as PEACH WILKINS

as SULLIVAN

-- anthony mackie is one of those actors that is relatively new on my radar, but when he showed up, i was instantly in love. after seeing his role in gangster squad, i knew he'd be the perfect sullivan.  

as JASMINE JOLENE

-- i initially chose jasmine's face based on sex appeal, given her occupation, but on second thought, wanted someone who looked more classic pin-up and not over the top while still being both sexy and beautiful. 

as HECTOR RODRIGUEZ

as SILAS COBB

as MARTIN FINNEGAN

as DIANE MCCLINTOCK

as BILL MCDONAGH

as ANNA CULPEPPER

-- not only does she have a continuously expanding filmography, but she could also easily belt out rapture's theme song over the title screen: rise, rapture, rise.

as AUGUSTUS SINCLAIR

as ANTON KINKAIDE

-- the most underrated actor on this list, rockwell is the only anton "man with little social sophistication but a brilliant engineering mind" kinkaide for this fan cast.

as ANYA ANDERSDOTTER

as STANLEY KYBURZ
