Someone in another thread suggested that a new member, Jenny, could easily model as Seoni. Which of course got me thinking...
If there was a Pathfinder movie, who would act as the iconics?
The list:
Amiri
Ezren
Harsk
Kyra
Lem
Lini
Merisiel
Sajan
Seelah
Seoni
Valeros
My suggestions:
Amiri - Winona Ryder
Ezren - Anthony Hopkins
Harsk - was tough, but I think Sean Bean could do it
Kyra - Salma Hayek
Lem - Can anybody else see Kevin Bacon?
Lini - I've no idea. I think the hair is throwing me.
Merisiel - Lucy Liu
Sajan - Arnold Vosloo
Seelah - Regina Hall
Seoni - Jenny Poussin, as mentioned in the other thread.
Valeros - Orlando Bloom, much as I hate to say it.
I think this guy would make a better Valerous:
Lini- Cindy Lauper
I think this guy would make a better Valerous:
Yes but Val Kilmer will NEVER LOOK LIKE THAT AGAIN.
Yes but Val Kilmer will NEVER LOOK LIKE THAT AGAIN.
Probably true . . . just posting the picture for the irony of it all . . .
Your list is pretty good as-is. I think Natalie Portman might be able to pull off Kyra. I vote for her.

Wait a minute! Where is Seltyiel?
Picture or it isn't true!
Come on! Show your photoshopping skills, people!
I have no Photoshopping skills! Really... right brained visual activities are one of my worst areas. Painting, drawing, etc. are all out.
Lini- Cindy Lauper
I can see it. I also thought of Jodelle Ferland, for some reason. Also, I'm changing two choices:
Seelah - Lisa Gaye Hamilton has more serious roles in her resume.
Valeros - While I would have agreed on Val Kilmer 20 years ago... I'm thinking Sam Worthington would be a better choice.
And yeah, Natalie Portman could do Kyra. But I just don't see Peter O'Toole as Ezren. First time I saw Ezren's pic, I said, "Dude, that looks like Anthony Hopkins!" Coincidentally, I saw Wolfman tonight. The beard just solidified it. That beard, and his hair from Zorro...
I didn't include Seltyiel because he's not in the Core Rulebook and I don't know what source he's from.

Awww... Poor Seltyiel! He's in the core rulebook; he's the iconic multiclass character. He's hanging out with a bunch of no-namer iconics in the Prestige Class chapter of the core rulebook as the eldritch knight.
(He'd probably be played by Cillian Murphy, I would say...)

Great, now I'm picturing him terrorizing people on airplanes and wearing burlap masks . . .
He needs more fear spells on his spell list now. ;)
As much as I love Winona Ryder (I've had a crush on her since Beetlejuice...) I think she's a bit old for the part.
Maybe Keira Knightley.
Someone in another thread suggested that a new member, Jenny, could easily model as Seoni. Which of course got me thinking...
To be fair, a few of us suggested it. I'm just the one who offered to do the actual tailoring. ;)
Amiri: I think we'd need someone a bit more brash, and with more meat on her bones. Put a wig on the popstar, Pink, and I think she'd fit the bill.
Lini: Perhaps one of the Olsen twins would make a good Lini. You know... large heads, tiny bodies, etc.
Seelah: I could see Venus Williams being able to heft all that armor around. You better believe any baddies would feel they got smote when she swung too!
Valeros: Go back in time about 10-15 years and get Val Kilmer when he was younger. Brad Pitt would also be a viable option.
Yes.. I'll put up my vote for Pink as Amiri. This needs to happen.
amiri- michelle rodriguez
Kyra- Sheetal Sheth
Valeros-Criss Angel
Ezren-sean connery
Seelah- I'll second venus williams
Harsk- Johnathan Rhys-Davies
Lem-Neil Patrick Harris
Sajan-Shah Rukh Khan
Seltyiel-Alexander Skarsgaard
merisiel-milla jovovich
lini-....
Your list is pretty good as-is. I think Natalie Portman might be able to pull off Kyra. I vote for her.

I think I agree with this and Keira Knightley might be a bit too thin for Amiri but maybe could work for Merisiel. As far as the no name PrC iconics go, we can still suggest actors for them, we'd just have to specify the PrC rather than the name.

I respectfully counter that for Seltyiel its got to be Paul Bettany.
And I posted these suggestions on another thread about a week and a half ago:
For Lem it could be Simon Pegg after some digital work to make him halfling sized.
I keep thinking of Zoe Saldana for Seelah, but if they got Iman for her role, then her hubby David Bowie could do some of the musical score for movie. Or at the very least play the Goblin King.
I think Valeros would be great if he could be played by Aragorn. Not Viggo Mortensen, but by the actual Aragorn.
I miss Peter Cushing, he could have done justice as Karzoug the Claimer.
For Ezren it would be either Sean Connery or Josh Frost.
For Seoni its a toss up between Marissa Miller or my ex.
For Merisiel I humbly submit my current gal. : )
And because the fans demanded it, SKR and Nicolas Louge as Sajan and Harsk respectively !!
(He'd probably be played by Cillian Murphy, I would say...)
Nice! Thanks James! :P
amiri- michelle rodriguez
There ya go. Michelle Rodriguez would be a great Amiri.
Harsk- Johnathan Rhys-Davies
John Rhys-Davies suffered from some pretty nasty allergies to the prosthetic makeup he had to wear while playing Gimli. Pretty sure he would absolutely refuse to reprise the role in any form unless it could be done without makeup.
amiri- michelle rodriguezThere ya go. Michelle Rodriguez would be a great Amiri.
Oh wow, yeah that is a good call!
Amiri - Michelle Rodriguez all the way. right build, and attitude.
Ezren - Liam Neeson.
Harsk - I still can't think of anyone better than Rhys-davies, but hey, there's probably a great no-name out there somewhere
Kyra - I'm with Azhagal, Sheetal Sheth is best.
Lem - I like Simon Pegg, or Paul Bettany
Lini - Umm.. I'm surprised this one is so hard. Dakota fanniny totally
Merisiel - Lucy Liu,
Sajan - Arnold Vosloo, or his counterpart Billy Zane
Seelah - I like miss Williams, but don't know if she can act.
Seoni - I like Scarlet Johansson
Valeros - Sam Worthingtion. Have you seen him as Perseus? Best person I can think of short of going back in time to bring Mad Martigan back.
I completely agree with the idea of Alexander Skarsgaard He'd be perfect at it
Wait, you just gave me an idea... Nathan Fillion as Valeros. I can see it...
And yes, Michelle Rodriguez as Amiri. Totally fits.
Jessica Biel as Amiri
jessica biel is just a little too "pretty" to be amiri IMO
As the unnamed witch iconic I choose Bai ling
For Ezren it would be either Sean Connery or Josh Frost.
Look, I know Joshua J. Frost has Ezren as his avatar, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't actually look like him.

Amiri - Michelle Rodriguez. Seems a lot of us immediately thought of her.
Ezren - Terence Stamp.
Harsk - Ray Winstone.
Kyra - Parminder Nagra. Vote #2!
Lem - Thomas Sangster. Goofy looking British actor. He doesn't look it, but he's 19.
Lini - Bjork.
Merisiel - Devon Aoki. Deadly Miho from Sin City.
Sajan - Faran Tahir. Captain Rabau of the USS Kelvin from the latest Star Trek.
Seelah - Kimberly Elise
Seoni - Moon Bloodgood. Seoni's Varisian, not Ulfen white ;)
Valeros - Sam Rockwell.
Seltyiel - Ben Whishaw. The psycho from Perfume.
Thassit!
amiri- michelle rodriguez
Now here's hoping that Amiri doesn't die in the movie..
I'll toss Serena Williams in as the Inquisitor Iconic.

My suggestions:
Amiri - Gina Carano
Ezren - John Glover
Harsk - Don "Hollywood" Yates
Kyra - Padma Lakshimi or Rachel Luttrell depending on the amount of fight work.
Lem - Seth Green?
Lini - Hmm, I'm biased to Nicki Clyne or Jordan Hinson leaning more to Ms. Clyne
Merisiel - Stana Katic
Sajan - I liked someone else's selection of Arnold Voslo, or Mark Dacascos "Tonight's secret ingredient. Temple Sword!"
Seelah - Time machine for Grace Jones, else hmm Bianca Lawson?
Seoni - Not sure, Jenny has a couple of merits, if she can act ;-)
Valeros - Doug Anderson
Seytiel - James Marsters. edit: Or Wil Wheton, I forgot about his turn on Criminal Minds
My suggestions for Lini would be Helena Bonham Carter or Juliette Lewis.
Helena is my favorite, though.
Seoni - Jenny Poussin, as mentioned in the other thread.
Great, you just made me Google a pornstar from work.. That'll teach me! :p
You mean you missed the huge explosive thread about her over the past few days?Great, you just made me Google a pornstar from work.. That'll teach me! :p
Seoni - Jenny Poussin, as mentioned in the other thread.
Pretty much, yes. Will look it up now tough.

Sajan - Faran Tahir. Captain Rabau of the USS Kelvin from the latest Star Trek.
Spot ON for Sajan. Excellent.

try this and this
Heh. Those threads totally remind my of some of my friends. They act as though pretty female gamers are secretly backstabbing dopplegangers.
Jenny's very pretty, and has that California look going for her (though she's French), but I don't think she'd make a good Seoni at all. However she'd probably do well as a Seoni 'booth babe' if Paizo went that direction.
So, I love these threads. Thinking of all the possibilities. But has anyone actually started working on a screenplay? Now that would be even more interesting. Maybe a series/trilogy? What would be the overall plot? How could you write it so that the general public would enjoy it, yet be specific to Pathfinder so fans love it.

Actually what would be cool to see the APs turned into a movie/or Tv series
+1 this would be awesome... but unfortunately, after the d&d movie flop, it would have to be released in another form of media first--graphic novel would be best as most movie studios are snapping up GN material to produce any chance they get.
How about Joss Whedon?
Sorry, big Firefly/Joss fanboy. :P
