@LordOfDarkness , like @AgentRedgrave said, in my original post i mentioned dylan can be DmC dante or DMC dante, in this case if the original were to cast ian then dylan can still fit in a role as young ian for i think they kinda look alike.. at least much much more look alike then the young nic cage in ghost rider..

it's not up to me also, since nobody want to bring up DMC to the picture.. can't blame them for not wanting to bring it up, i know the feeling of waiting, and they've waited so much longer than me for a DMC movie..

He could always be Nero if Classic Dante is already taken. I'm guessing he could play Dante if they start with DMC3 and just have him grew into the role.

Nero is a really good looking character, i think they'll have to get a better looking one than dylan, lol, not that i say dylan isn't good looking..

have him grew with the role the way harry potter did? i think that's a good idea, only if they could make the movie with quality, man, if they're doing it this way, i can't wait to see the movie reach DMC2 dante
 
i think (and this might anger some people a bit) a DmC movie would work better than a DMC movie. but say they did make a DMC movie, dylan o'brian would be great for nero. but DmC he'd be ok for dante, but i'd prefer a taller actor
 
i personally think both could work well, but i'm pretty sure DmC will cost less to make, so it's a safer bet if they're really gonna make one..

I meant more like the superheroes where you have sequels and such and you see an actor grew into a role. DMC is pretty malleable in terms of timeline so you could always make the stories closer/farther together. Instead of a ten year difference between DMC3 and DMC1, you could make it 5 or less.
 
My dream would be a CGI movie with Reuben, Dan and Johnny reprising their roles as mocap and voice actors, with freaking Yuji Shimomura back on board to deliver the awesome and beautifully shot action he got us used to in the games, coupled with a good action director (actually Shimomura already is one though...). Oh man.

The same way, why not bringing in Tim Phillips himself for a DmC movie? Heck, Dante was modeled after his appearance after all. He stands for nDante just as much as Reuben does for oDante.
 
No that's quite a popular opinion actually. When it comes to live action. And I agree.
Ditto, because DmC's more cinematic, and the plot's more grounded. It would be easier to adapt into a film. That being said, I still hope they'd take some aspects from the originals when they could.

i don't know about the others, but i'm really not one of those who thinks the motion actor/model/voice actor will ever make it to the game's movie adaptation, reasons would be the movie company won't see it that way, and as for me, yeah, i won't see it that way either.. yes both are the same --acting, but in the same time both are on a different level on many certain aspects..
 
What do you mean?

well for alive action movie, there are so many aspects that i think they won't make it --realistically,

like how the movie company sees things, i can't even see they would even think about using one,

like the market, they won't just aim the specific gamer, they want to attract gamers, those who would have known the title, the fans of the casts, movie goers and the range of ages --in ugly truth case, the pg-13 range of ages,

like the level of acting, for a game, people aren't just watching, they're interacting with the character while playing it so they would be attached more to the chars and the actor in the game.

and i think some of them can't act, i think reuben can't act, and the same goes for tim, many say his acting suck.. so in general, they can't act.. ones who think they can't act are their fans, and that alone would be a bad score for the movie company..

these whole aspects shouldn't apply to cgis i think.. but how was the cgi resident evil movies, did they use the same actors as in the game?

Yeah and in fact I did say that I would like a CGI movie with them. Not live action.

I wouldn't want a live action film at all, but if that has to happen, I agree that they should hire different actors.

But if the scenario is a CGI flick, nobody would be better fit for voicing and mocapping the characters than those who already did it in the games, whether it is DMC or DmC. Reuben, Dan, Johnny, Tim, David, all of them did great in the games and I don't see why they necessarily wouldn't do the same in a CGI movie. It's basically the same thing.

yeah, if it were cgi i even think it'd be stupid to not use the same voice actors.. speaking of which, why did devil may cry stopped at anime? why not make a cgi of it ala resident evil? it's one of their famous title ffs

you know, that kid from maze runner, man gotta say this kid is perfect for DmC dante, i don't know how tall he is but he's not looking tall enough for the role, but they can work that ofc..

but seriously i've been wanting this kid to play as DmC dante since the first movie, but he was still rather skinny in that, and in the second movie he got rather beefed up just a little, and the way he walks, it's perfectly like DmC dante..

and hey, if they ever make devil may cry movie, wether its the reboot or the original, the kid can still play a role

for DmC, since he's currently looking younger than DmC dante, they could make a pre-DmC movie, maybe with the story NT meant to make.. both his character in maze runner and DmC Dante imo are the same, a cliched cool struggling young protagonist, so he should act effortlessly, and he's kinda good with the acting

and for DMC, so when i watch the kid, and remembered people would love ian sommerhalder to be dante, this kid can play as young ian, and i think i'm not the only one thinking so, cuz when i image googled dylan o'brien, some of ian's pic are there too.. so if they decided to use ian, maybe the kid could play as flashbacks, maybe as DMC3 dante..

i'm really excited and i gotta make this thread, i hope this thread showed up in goggle search so it can contaminate other people, NguugnuggUGUAUAHHUAHAHAYUAUAUAAaa
I always thought that the guy who plays Jamie Lannister in Game of Thrones would make a good Dante, especially an older Devil May Cry 4 type Dante. But yeah, this guy makes a good younger Dante.
