Isn't berserk just a story of a very angry cuckold who sucks at life?

Idris Elba as Donovan

I mean, he has the stature and somewhat the looks but he still comes off as a harmless guy. Nowhere near the rage or despair levels Guts reaches. He also ain't that good of an actor but I still like him

The problem is the hair.

There are tonnes of models/actors that are 'pretty' enough to look like griffith but just sticking a wig on them would look weird. They have to have the right combo of griffith's prettyboy features and blonde hair,

You know you can get hair extensions now

in the time of high budget 3-5 season series its the perfect time for berserk to be filmed.

if the fucking witcher can be translated to screen berserk can.

What you guys don't get is that Guts is a teenager when Berserk begins and you shouldn't pick nearly 40 year olds like Henry Cavill.

We all know Cavill is the choice.

aye, but they look weird.

The point is that griffith's hair is kind of unrealistic and unique.

Its blonde to the point of being white. It has more volume and is kinda curly to a point. Not going to find anyone on earth with natural hair with htis combo as well as his unique facial features.

Attached: griffith.jpg (184x274, 9K)

this.

This is what makes berserk hard to translate on screen. A director could go 1 of three ways.

A: make up the actor of guts to look younger which probably will not work at all, maybe even CG him younger. They would have to do this with every member of the band of the hawk. Really easy to fuck up and could ruin the story.

B: get a seperate actor for young guts / casca / griffith. Swap them out for older years. This is weird and will create a disconnect with audiences, especially if everyone looks the same. Only way to do this is to use a REALLY close looking actor for all three

C: ignore the younger age of guts at the start of the golden age arc. This could work but kind of messes with his character as hes supposed to be young and angry.


None are perfect options and it really is a hard problem for a film maker to solve.

Yeah, but Berserk is incomplete.

You'll eventually get a Game of Throne ending, when the writers and directors start going off the reservation and make their own story up

No one. Stop adapting things that are already good.

It would take like 10 years to catch up to the manga. In that time Miura would have completed at least like half a chapter.

this is what people who haven't read the illiad believe

No it fucking wouldn't, studios will just trim the fat and condense entire arcs into 5 or so episodes. They've done it for the 2016/17 anime.

No one, either you get an actor that can play him who looks nothing like him or you get a model who looks like him that cant act for shit. Best route would be to have the actor who can play him and cgi him alita style so he looks true to the manga

Scott Eastwood.

well the point of having as a tv show is that they can keep the plot intact and would not have to trim the fat.

Someone didn't watch Game of Thrones.

HBO needs SOMETHING to fill the void Game of Thrones left behind.
Berserk and Death Note are the only anime that COULD be even remotely attempted in live action and Netflix already fucked one of those up.

nicholas cage could be decent.

game of thrones had the opposite problem though. They ran out of book to adapt.

jesus christ a berserk live action adaptation would be a fucking terrible idea. it's a story that can only thrive in manga, its too picturesque

That and it's too anti-SJW to release to a broder audience.

I'm sure some feminism groups would have a field day over Caska's rape scene, which is the flashpoint for every other storyarc past that point.

Because they cut 70% of the storylines in the book and even then, they still cut out a lot of material about the characters they WERE following.

4. Film it over many years.

Perfection is the only acceptable answer when it comes to Berserk adaptations, otherwise I don't want anything to do with them.

It's a story about family, that's what so powerful about it.

>Every show on TV has people being raped

only when it's a celebration of victimhood.

The world of Berserk is a very unforgiving place. Rape is almost commonplace, perhaps celebrated. Accepted as a way of life, rather than some Law&Order SUV lesson.

Stop trying to cast 30+ year olds. The characters are in their late teens and early 20’s.

The fag that play Flash has the looks, but he's a shit actor.

looks like shit.

I think the problem with Guts is he's a character with a very rich depth of emotion and strong force of personality, but he looks like a standard bland handsome guy in his mid 20s. So most actors that look like him are young guys for whom their looks were a huge factor in their success rather than pure acting ability.

So basically you need a muscular guy who looks like a model between the ages 20 and 30 who also has the smouldering, threatening presence of someone like Eastwood or Bryan Cranston, as well as top tier acting abilities.

Legitimately don't know if there's anyone like that. Most actors don't seem to get really good until they're at least 30.

He's not even close to being a shit actor, watch more movies
