Here are would be my "
casting choices" for if there was going to be a Legend of Zelda film. I was looking more along the lines of the Ocarina of Time storyline and characters. So let me know what you guys think about my opinions.
To look at the pictures of the certain individual, click on the link right below the underlined name. Let me know if any of the urls arent working correctly. thanks.
Let me know your opinions as well!!!
Link: James van der Beek :He is pretty good for the part. I don't know about Orlando bloom though. I can't see him being Link after he was in Lord of the Rings.

Princess Zelda: Keira Knightley : She has that angelic face of a true princess and she also proved(in King Arthur) that she can kick serious ass. I originally considered Gretchen Mol for Zelda, but she is now too old to play such a young princess.

Ganondorf: Jason Isaacs : He has that evil look on his face of a madman and real bad ass villain. Besides that, he also is strong and tough for the battle scenes with Link and others.

Impa: Uma Thurman : She proved in (Kill Bill Vol.1 and 2) that she can also kick butt, even at her age! I think the actress that plays Impa should really have that kind of background, and be tough for the role.

King of Hyrule(Zelda's father): Sean Connery : He's been a king many times, and never has he, bored us with his performances.

Talon: Danny Devito : He could add a bit of spark to Talon's character, and in the game, Talon is a loving and crazy father of Malon.

Princess Ruto(female zora in OoT): Katie Holmes : Also having a cute, angelic face, she could bring her tough and cute personality to Ruto's role. Ruto is a guide for Link in Water temple, as well as one of the sages.

Young Ruto: Sarah Ramos : She just looks like she could play a tough, tomboyish character like young Ruto for maybe flashbacks or intro to Legend of Zelda!?

Ingo: John Leguizamo :He could play Ingo, the often pessemistic, and laid back employee at Lon Lon Ranch. Leguizamo can bring his sarcastic jokes and personality to the role of Ingo.

Rauru: Dennis Franz: I think this guy would be GREAT for the role of Rauru. Someone earlier mentioned Ian McKellan for Rauru? I can't possibly agree with them. He already had been a noble hero and idol in Lord of the Rings, so why in this as well??

Dampe: Anthony Hopkins :Why not? He's got a mysterious tone to his personality and roles. This could work on someone like Dampe. Even though, he is not a major character, he could somehow be connected to Link.

Now, I understand this sounds really expensive, let alone the ACTORS! But, this is what something like Legend of Zelda needs. A real true film with valuable actors, and a great storyline could make this even bigger than Lord of the Rings.
