Who is your Galad?

All Print: Books Only

I am curious to know which man is, to you, outrageously handsome. Just stupid. Which man shuts your brain off? Who would you have as Galad?

Gregory Peck. To Kill a Mockingbird or Guns of Naverone era.

Now? Henry Cavill.

Hmmm cavill just doesn't feel right to me, would have fit Lan better than galad. Gregory peck though damn that would have been frickin perfect

My brain always pictured someone more like Liam Hemsworth.

I like chiseled face and nice hair shrug. Check out Cavill in the Tudors. Om. Nom. Nom.

15 years to old and he is not going to leave 1 show where he is the lead to play the leads brother

Yet Cavill is 4 inches shorter and the lead on another show ( heh Henry would you mind ditching that role as the lead and take up this other job as the leads older brother )than Daniel and Liam cannot act

It is probably going to be some Euro actor same with his brother

And Peck has been dead for 20 years . This is the same as the can they not get Chistopher Lambert at 65 to play him with all is ability to put on an accent

Not sure if you're being to literal or what. I'm well aware peck is dead but dam if he didn't look the part. Also op didn't explicitly say we were discussing THE show just what actors suite our idea of Galad. I don't really care who plays Galad in THE show I wouldn't watch it anyway season 1 proved it was a write off for me.

Haha I can totally see the connection between the two. Gregory Peck is like Henry version 1.0

Chris Evans - Captain America. Even he is a touch too old now though.

I can't find a good list of mid 20s super hot guys. Not usually my wheelhouse.

Good question though.

To me, Chris Evans is still slightly relatable looking. Galad imo needs to be generically good looking to the point where you start hating him.

Channing Tatum?

Zac Efron?

Oh yes, that's perfect. He's the exact mix of objectively good looking but I want to punch him every time I see him on screen that I'm talking about!

That's a wonderful description of Galad.

I worry he comes off as too Smug. Galad isn't smug, self centered, or arrogant.

Too short for Galad and 10 years too old

Channing is 15 years too old

Suggestions?

Ben Barnes for me.

Ben Barnes

15 years to old . Did Tigraine have him at when she was 5-`10

I'm aware, I just don't care.

Humbugged2Band of the Red Hand •

So you do not care that a 40 year old is supposed to be play the brother of a two 20 year old and a 23 year old

Ekho13•

Nope, life's too short to sweat the details like that.

And also, in the books Galad is 27-28. Given that all the main characters have been aged up by a couple of years, we should probably be expecting an actor around 30, rather than 25.

Adam Driver would be a great choice for Galad

DreadofKnightOPAsha'man•

Oh I could totally see that. Or Timothy Chalamet. I could see either of them in that scene wear Galad and the Sheinaran’s carve a path through a mob of rabble thugs. I can picture Adam Driver as Morridin also.
