Casting Johnny

[broken_moons]

There were a couple casting posts a while back, and recently I've been rereading all the novels, and the whole time I had this picture of Johnny in my head that I just knew was an existing, actual person, but I couldn't remember his name

...that's actually totally perfect. I've never really had a mental Johnny but Rich Hall definitely works!

Back when I first read the novels I always had a young Jude Law as Jeremy but Simon Baker? Hell yes as well!

Also, my mental Simon is very similar to David Gandy...perhaps not quite tough enough but the colouring works and it certainly doesn't hurt to imagine him occasionally :) (Oh, his google image search - kinda NSFW. I learnt that the hard way!)

Oooh David Gandy. Mmmmm. I love these threads!

OMG. Wow. That's perfect.

Like, really, totally perfect. Good find!

Perfect on both choices, I've to take my hat ot you!

simon baker? dont you guys think he is a little bit old and chubby for jeremy?

[neverendum]

I agree with echolee! I've always pictured Jeremy to be more... sleek-looking. Svelte. I kinda see his facial features as being angular and well-defined. I just haven't yet stumbled across a real-life person who comes anywhere near how I picture him D:

OMG yes! Oh man, now every time I watch QI that's all I'll be thinking about him!

Also, re: casting Simon and Jeremy, I've always pictured M. Shadows from Avenged Sevenfold as Simon (ignoring the lipring, Simon on a day off, maybe one of the poker nights, and Simon looking badass), and y'know, Matt Bomer from White Collar could make a pretty good Jeremy (casual!Jeremy (pretend that's a leather jacket), and what Simon sometimes sees in the morning.) But, y'know, that's just me :D
