Top Ten Tuesday is a fun bookish meme hosted at The Broke and the Bookish. This week, bloggers were given the opportunity to choose our own topics, and I started thinking about the way I envision characters. Oftentimes the people in my head look like combinations of people I've seen to fit an author's description, but there have been some occasions where I envision specific actors playing characters in my head. I decided I'd list those this week.

What do you think of these actor-character pairings? Do you tend to envision specific actors as characters as you read?

I actually don't know any of these actors, except for Emma Watson, off to google lol!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Great choice of topic this week. I always love freebie week as people always do such amazing topics! You have picked some fantastic actors for some awesome characters. Some I haven't actually heard of, so Google I must go ;) I never really fancast, I can't seem to ever imagine an actor as a book character. Until they are actually cast that is.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT post if you want to check it out. I picked non-book romances I would love to see get book adaptations.
Yeah sorry about that, everybody - I was going to put up pictures but then I started uni again and totally forgot! I really should have since the way I envisioned these actors can be heavily influenced by their appearance in whatever show/movie I saw them in, and they may look different now. XD (For example, I was envisioning Chelsea Brummet looking similar to what she looked like in her Gilmore Girls episode, and I was envisioning Shane Brolly from his Underworld days.)
