Fan Casting - Blog Posts

Reminder:

Almost all the characters in the ACOTAR series are supposed to look like they are in their early to late 20s. They are immortal fae and I decided on this fancast because the actors need to look like they are in this age range for a number of years. I know this wouldn’t be everyone choice and a lot of people would love to see actors like Henry Cavill or Jason Momoa (trust me, I would too), but I wanted to keep the fancast more realistic towards the books.

(I don’t know why I’m saying all this like it’s a real casting, this is a fancasting. But istg if they make Jacob Elordi or Timothee Chalamet Rhysand, I’ll riot)

The Lost Boys 2026

Kurt Russel as Grandpa Emerson

Kate Hudson as Lucy Emerson

Jason Segal as Max

Jack Dylan Grazer as Sam Emerson

Okay, hear me out. They all have some serious acting chops. In my mind, I want to cast this movie based on whether or not I think they could do these characters' justice. I would be really excited to see Jason Segal as Max!🦇🖤

THE LOST BOYS - 2026

Austin Butler as David

Dacre Montgomery as Paul

Tanner Buchanan as Dwayne

Leo Woodall as Marko

Aaron Taylor Johnson as Michael

I definitely see it, but they would have to stick with Joel Schumacher's original vision. Sexy-ass vampires terrorizing Santa Carla in 1987. Also, I would drop dead if I ever saw Leo Woodall in a crop top and Marko's jacket. 🦇🖤
