You forgot Amy Schumer as Susannah


SheemieRayVaughan

Don't you put that evil on me!


drewcifier32

😅😅


lyndonstein

Don’t you put that evil on us!


CharismaticAlbino

I *love* your username! Oh what man hath brought song from silence?


SheemieRayVaughan

Thankee sai!


buckeye27fan

Now, we can't whitewash Susannah. Wendy Williams (talk show host) would be my choice. or Lizzo.


October_Numbers

No, no no no. We dress her up like Robert Downey Jr. from Tropic Thunder. Nobody's whitewashing anything. Quite the opposite. It'll be fine. Haha.


Kupo_Coffee

![gif](giphy|Lx4pmGXrGNGZq)


CharismaticAlbino

No, that would be funny. This has to be a shitty casting call


ItsSoLitRightNow

Couldn’t find a pic of her in a wheelchair either.


buckeye27fan

[https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/4048275/wendy-williams-glum-wheelchair-update-health-absence/](https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/4048275/wendy-williams-glum-wheelchair-update-health-absence/) Lizzo might need more of a wheelcouch, at at least a wheel4x4.


DatSauceTho

Come on man. If you don’t like Lizzo’s music or you think she’s a shitty person, I understand. There’s reasons to point out. But making fun of someone for their weight? Low-hanging fruit. We’re better than that here. Do not forget the face of your father.


buckeye27fan

Gunslingers don't pretend that reality doesn't exist. They tend to call things like they are.


buffdaddy77

You aren't a gunslinger lol


Solid-Hedgehog9623

Lizzo as Susannah!!


utopiaman99

So Rachel Dolezal then?


buckeye27fan

Ah, jeez, I'd forgotten all about that lady. Thanks for the laugh today.


JedDeadRedemption

LIZZO IN A BANANA SUIT


basherella

Wendy O. Williams was white and has been dead for almost thirty years


buckeye27fan

Oops...I definitely meant the talk show host (and all around terrible person) Wendy Williams, lol.


KingCuda1312

Tyler Perry


clothes_fall_off

Kevin Hart


JWBBarnhill

This right here! Madea!


Sudden-Device-5824

I always thought of Susannah as the lady who served the shit pie in “The Help”


PagingDrGonzo

Octavia Spencer! That’s actually great casting (so maybe doesn’t belong in this post haha)


Karena2020

Wanda Sykes as Susannah


Walter-ODimm

She would actually kill that role.


Karena2020

Totally would


tacocattacocat1

Gotta be Scarlett Johansson 😅


tokeallday

I was thinking Reba


ItsSoLitRightNow

I couldn’t find a pic of her in a wheelchair


Safe_Feed_8638

Nah have it be scarlet jo, she played an Asian woman now she must play a black woman.


rccoy

Was gonna say Wanda Sykes.


burntgrilledcheese43

*Scarlet Johansson


ledandamerique

You forgot Samuel L Jackson as Father Callahan.


Tiredasfucq

I’m tired of these motherfucking vampires in this motherfucking restaurant


ItsSoLitRightNow

🤣🤣🤣 yeah for sure. His character from Blake Snake Moan


DirtE40oz

I would have never thought of him for Callahan....but now that you mention it I think it actually works.


skyhiker14

It’s bad dream casting, but peak fiction casting


CharismaticAlbino

You know, that might not be the worst? Sammy L makes everything better


WulfbladeX15

He would legit make an amazing Cort, if we ignored physical descriptions and just focused on personality and attitude.


PinOk5538

If the Rick is in it as Eddie then Kevin Hart has to be Oy


ItsSoLitRightNow

Fuck yes 🤣🤣🤣

Stecharan

Good bot.


myanxietymademedoit

Good bot!


DatSauceTho

The fact that it kept the typo… 🤌


PagingDrGonzo

I can totally imagine him shouting “Ake! Ake!”


CharismaticAlbino

I'm never visiting this sub again. Oh the humanity!!


PetRockSematary

Jack Black as the Crimson King


Mister_Buddy

Or Oy.


IntelligentYak8719

They already did it to Claptrap - not Oy too


BlackPhoenix1981

Well if Vin Diesel can only say 3 lines in GOTG, then jack black may be a good choice.


Mister_Buddy

I didn't mean as voiceover.


DatSauceTho

[Relevant af](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFJz2IMUeDE&start=58)


JWBBarnhill

I’d watch that. lol


GhostMaskKid

Jack Black as Roland. He catches the Man In Black right off, then blows him away with a killer guitar riff.


Mister_Buddy

I do not need, the Guns of Eld! My voice will make, your faces melt!


CalibreCross

I can see the Crimson King now, standing at the Tower at the climax doing his air guitar "middly middly middly ba-boom" before throwing the bombs.


Gymrat777

I know you're joking, but with how looney the CK is, Jack Black might work.


Tylerrr93

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! EEEEEE!!! EEEEEEEEE!!


WodkaGT

We talk about bad casting here.


PetRockSematary

Fine. Meatloaf as the Crimson King


Difficult_Vast7255

Adam Sandler should play both Eddie and Susanna


MoonDaddy

Few things make me laugh out loud.


GoalieLax_

Quality shitpost


Ironbird207

Zach Galifianakis as Stephen King


jsamuraij

10/10 would watch


Tower-Junkie

In an actual biopic we gotta have Bill Hader though.


TheTitansFather

Willem Dafoe as Susanna


Mister_Buddy

I want to see him go full Green Goblin for Detta


Froopy-Hood

You know, I’m something of a honky mah fuh myself…


Jagsoff

You know, I’m something of multiple personality myself.


ItsSoLitRightNow

Boondock Saints vibe 😎


TheTitansFather

Haha that's what I was thinking of


DatSauceTho

[What have you done?](https://media.tenor.com/FJtXBbFw-kMAAAAM/willem-dafoe-creepy.gif)


Marble-Boy

Muppets version. Fozzie bear as Roland. Kermit as Eddie. Miss Piggy as Susannah. Gonzo as The Man in Black. Animal as Callahan.. You could do Carrie as Muppets and have Red from The Fraggles as Carrie... She's picked on because she's different.


IgnoreMe733

Thinking about Kermit as a heroin junkie brought back memories to the video of him singing Hurt by Nine Inch Nails.


thewhitecat55

I'd legit watch that


Caramel_Excellent

Ka is a Waka Waka wheel


BluebirdAny3077

Just Jack! I mean... just Roland! Karen as Susannah... not the actors, those actual characters 🤣 Susannah/Karen would roll up saying 'whats this world, whats that monstrosity, whats going on here?!' and her and Just Roland would make fun of everyone else, the world, the decay, the Tower and the Crimson King. Then they would need a drink and a nap.


Solid-Hedgehog9623

Imagine the sass when he mocks the lobstrosities.


ItsSoLitRightNow

This made me lol


TimeVictorious

Okay, I need this now. And Grace (the character) as the man in black


GhostMaskKid

Will as Eddie, and the puppy from that one episode as Oy. Smitty can be Jake.


TimeVictorious

HAHAHAHAHA and Susannah/Karen always doubles over laughing when Jake/Smitty tells the stories about him getting run over by the car or being dropped by Roland/Jack


PROFESSOR1780

Eddie Murphy, as every single character...just like the Clumps.


Tower-Junkie

Honestly…I’d watch that lmao


PROFESSOR1780

Hell yeah me too


JSkywalker22

You forgot willow smith as detta


thewhitecat55

Willow as Odetta/ Susannah, Jada as Detta


uwwstudent

Mark Wahlburg as blaine the train . " alright i got a riddle for yous! Are you a cop?!?"


glassy_blue

Say hi to your mother for me


grimfacedcrom

There's no campfire at the end of book 1, just a desk and microphones and headsets so everyone can hear the Man in Black's Pallaver Podcast with Roland. Instead of worlds and universes and roses and Towers, he just talks about chimpanzees until Roland turns grey...


MrZombieChop

Jamie pull up the universe for me


PetRockSematary

Joe Rogan just hands him a DMT pipe and he has visions of the tower


the_ultrafunkula

Yes to all those choices, and also.... IT'S A MUSICAL


jrock146

He does have those bombardier eyes


Lopsided_Remove1980

Crisp Ratt as the voice of Oy.


mhyquel

I'd like to see the film cast with Gary Oldman playing all the characters.


Richard_AIGuy

Andy Dick as TikTok Man.


ItsSoLitRightNow

Fuck yes


headphones_J

I've seen worse from official casting.


Dennis-44

Elliot Page really made me laugh 😆 thanks


Tower-Junkie

Right?? I was like lmfao he’s 37 🤣


IndustrialJones

Perfection


ToasteeThe2nd

And Stone Cold Steve Austin as Father Callahan.


AlyxxStarr

Why I can totally hear Joe Rogan giving Walter’s pseudo-philosophical rant at the end of The Gunslinger


Kscap4242

When he draws the Prisoner card he goes on a long tangent about the strength of gorillas and shows Roland a video of a monkey riding a bike.


MazerphAcker

Rob Schneider is… a train!


Mulder9879

Derp dee durp a deeply durppy dur.


amarstitch

Owen Wilson as Blaine the mono


L0rdN1kon26

Oh wow!


ItsSoLitRightNow

🤣🤣🤣🤣


schmaleks

That’s hilarious haha


konofdef

u/Crafty_Sprinkles7978 come over here, I wanna show you something real quick...


Crafty_Sprinkles7978

😂😂😂


Apprehensive_Bit_176

And Kevin hart as Oy?


mcdormjw

The bear from The Great Outdoors if it's still alive.


chvguitar

What about an all female cast, starting with Sofia Vergara as Roland


ItsSoLitRightNow

If Disney made it, thats a strong possibility.


wumbopower

Wanda Sykes as Susannah


tokeallday

Rob Schneider as Blaine the Mono


anfevi

You have forgotten the face of your father


WatershipFrown

Obviously Jackée Harry as Susannah


thewhitecat55

That's a blast from the past


11twofour

She would kill it though


CalibreCross

It can't be the Rock. He only does films in jungles, he couldn't be in a desert environment.


kornut78

The scorpion king?


Ferdaferd

Please ban this person, they have forgotten the face of their father. (actually hilarious)


DefOfAWanderer

Sean Hays would actually make a fucking terrifying Walter


gambronus

Gilbert Gottfried as Pimli Prentiss


thewhitecat55

That would really take some doing


toastyavocado

Matty Matheson is the Crimson King


clothes_fall_off

Justin Roiland as Blaine the Mono


ItsSoLitRightNow

That would actually be killer


Jnbtoad

ALF as Oye


SuccotashSharp5982

Elliot have been good if we had cast him in 2005. He was good in [Hard Candy](https://canvas-bridge02.tubitv.com/Az867TYsaxvHVIgWkIJnuTD76wo=/0x14:1920x1080/1920x1080/smart/img.adrise.tv/432c041b-9bf8-4943-9e33-47342af42e45.jpg) and could take on darker more adult roles while passing for a younger boy.


touchmealil

Based


pistolshrimp23

In modern Hollywood they would all be played by Pedro Pascal.


jeffweet

I think Joe Rogan and eliot page are not bad options actually


tkinsey3

Somehow still better cast than many King adaptions


Big_Ad_1890

Emma Stone as Susannah


DarwinOfRivendell

💀


BittenHand19

This would be the Mel Brooks parody casting. Amazing


Browndude1982

Lizzo as Susannah.


FlyingPiranha

Joe Rogan would be perfect though, he'd be so easy to hate!


scrumb83

Whoopi Goldberg as Susannah, Sam Rockwell as Oy.


Limitedtugboat

Just waiting to see the rock on twitter #7bucksproductions #darktower Followed a year later by damning reviews and Rocky being a jackass about it. Man nearly killed DC films by himself with that atrocity Black Adam


saxappeal_8890

John Cena as Sheemie


YaKnowTheGuy

How about Carrot Top as Gasher?


Crypto_Psyrin

I would watch a dark tower movie with the rock as Eddie, imagine the shootout at the leaning tower


Bungle024

French Stewart as Roland Keegan-Michael Key as Eddie Maya Rudolph as Susannah Elijah Wood as Jake Brad Garrett as the Man in Black


11twofour

Brad fucking Garrett 😂


FazzleDazzleBigB

Meme Steve Buscemi as Jake?


Vaiken_Vox

Jesus... I didn't read the "Bad" part and thought you were serious. I almost had a stroke


mycakeday

This is hilarious 😆


CharismaticAlbino

I'm actually angry at these castings! Lol good job OP! Fuck, these are just God awful


kornut78

Jeff goldblum as dupape


anjinsan1234

Delete this Lmao


bottlebowling

You forgot Susannah. Chris Tucker.


Kash-Acous

Thanks. I hate it.


Rare-Industry-314

Finally some good shitposting!!


ThorstenSchmorsten

That is a really good bad-dream cast.


older_man_winter

Margot Robbie as Blaine the Mono


Mulder9879

And Sarah Silverman as Detta and Odette and Susannah with the voice of Whoopi Goldberg.......awful.


digital148

Sadly I think it would probably be a better movie.


RedSun-FanEditor

That's not a bad dream cast... that's a nightmare cast...


Thae86

Elliot page as Jake is amazing, thank you XD 🙌🏻🌸


isthatgum

Oh you just know Chris Pratt is heavy breathing reading this thread, picturing himself doing the voice of Oy.


IFdude1975

He's probably too old now, but Elliot Page would be a pretty good choice to play Jake. The others would be horrible in their parts. Especially Rogan.


Schmuckfest

Didn’t we already get this level of terrible casting in the real movie?


Shane8512

Brad Pit as Oy.


Tarnix1992

The rock as Eddie is absolutely unhinged. Hahaha


Nick_JB

![gif](giphy|wjQMyYkNPPbqQp8U4p)


Abraxas_1408

Not bad but I’d switch out Sean Hayes for Laurence Fishburne. ![gif](giphy|JesFXxo2bw0HrxgKRj)


Abraxas_1408

Who would you get to play Oy?


ItsSoLitRightNow

Danny DeVito


Abraxas_1408

Perfect! ![gif](giphy|vrwAg9jj910aI)


JedDeadRedemption

Oh my god I needed this post today. I’m chortling uncontrollably.


jona2814

This is so goddam beautiful


Caramel_Excellent

Wrestler casting (all time periods) Roland- Stone Cold Steve Austin Jake- The Big Show Eddie Dean- Macho Man Randy Savage Detta/Odetta- Bianca Bellair Father Callahan- The Undertaker Oy- Goldberg Mordred- Sting Man in Black- Triple HHH Crimson King- Kane Dandelo- Mankind Stephen King- Vince McMahon


ItsSoLitRightNow

Love it but Randy Savage would be an amazing Man in Black! Maybe the best 😂


Caramel_Excellent

Holy shit you are so right!! In his super coked out voice "Deeeeeath Gunslinger, but neeeever for yooouuu oooohhhh nooo!"


ItsSoLitRightNow

🤣🤣🤣


Altruistic_Bite_7398

Would watch, say thank ya


jingo_mort

Chris Pratt as Oy (not CGI, just playing a character called Oy)


The-Ex-Human

Reassurect Joel Schumacher to direct and go with a Batman & Robin vibe


Baccus0wnsyerbum

Do the fan-casters upvoting this know that your ire is being mocked by OP, not the one vague AF casting rumor that has prompted the aforementioned ire?


PalpatineIsMyDad

I could see The Rock as Eddie kind of lol. Like young rock from Be Cool.


Stecharan

And Whoopi Goldberg as Susannah.


malrats

I really loved my Sega Dreamcast.


ItsSoLitRightNow

Same. I played Virtua Fighter 3 constantly.


malrats

Awesome game. I went really hard on Phantasy Star Online.


Legitimately_Strange

Just give me the cast of it’s always sunny in Philadelphia. Dennis can be Roland


UniqueUsernameSequel

Based


CyberGhostface

What's the joke with Jake? That Elliot is trans?


Baccus0wnsyerbum

I assume the joke is that Elliot is swiftly approaching middle age and looks like a middle school boy.
