I'm over halfway through 'The Book of Life' after racing through a re-read of the first two installments (since I'd read the first two when they were released but took a regrettably long time to obtain 'The Book of Life'). I am so absorbed.Β 

Out of curiosity, I for the first time, I have sought out fanartΒ to see visuals of Diana and Matthew. Tragically, if Google is any indication, there isn't much,Β but of them, this lovely depiction comes the closest to my imaginings. Particularly your Matthew.Β 

My brain has given Diana aΒ somewhat similar appearance to Holly Marie Combs (who plays Piper in 'Charmed') but I quite like your depiction apart from it neglecting the description that she has red hair.Β

I imagined Matthew as being a little more like Gilles Marini. Handsome, killer smile, great hair and little bonus - he's French!

Hmm, I can't say I fully agree Goodlooking guy, sure, but too Italian-looking in my opinion to play Matthew I guess we all have a different image of him in our mind!

who would you have as Ysabera and Phillipe?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheSearchingEyes In reply to Hopewec [2013-06-28 15:36:24 +0000 UTC]

That's an interesting question because I actually imagine them rather different from how they are described in the books! I am just now reading Shadow of Night (halfway through), but before he was properly described, I imagined Phillipe rather like Tywin Lancaster and now I can't stop it [link]
Ysabeau for me is Narcissa Malfoy: [link] A lot older than she is described in the books ...

So you see my choice is based more off the roles these actors previously played than their appearance

What about you?

Hopewec In reply to TheSearchingEyes [2013-07-01 16:04:33 +0000 UTC]

I too know he is a bit old but I could see John Hurt ( as [link] ) Phillipe, and Ysaheau is more difficult. Perhaps Zoe Saldana ( [link] )

TheSearchingEyes In reply to Hopewec [2013-07-01 16:41:05 +0000 UTC]

Hmm interesting choice for Ysabeau! I'm very curious to see who they end up casting ... As long as Richard Armitage is Matthew, I'm happy

Hopewec In reply to TheSearchingEyes [2013-07-01 17:08:16 +0000 UTC]

I could also see Malcolm McDowell or Saul Rubinek as Peter Knox, Hugo Weaving as Dominique and Ian McKellen as Gilbert

you're welcome.

IKNORITE!! I don't know about you but I;m kinda crushing on Matthew... Good call on using Anna Torv for Diana.

TheSearchingEyes In reply to songsforever [2013-02-28 16:52:25 +0000 UTC]

Haha me too How could you not be in love with Matthew after reading it!
Yeah Anne doesn't look exactly like the Diana in my head, but I think she'd be perfect for the role regardless

songsforever In reply to TheSearchingEyes [2013-03-01 02:45:25 +0000 UTC]

Agreed

I have to admit, I was having trouble visualizing what Diana might look like... even Matthew but then Richard Armitage happened and...yeah...
