Who I Think The Cast of The Lord of the Rings TV Show is Playing

(Google Images)

Now with The Lord of the Rings TV show on the way we know it will be based around the Second Age of Middle Earth. Now we are wondering who these actors going to play some of them may play existing characters in the lore while some might play original characters that didn't exist in the books.

Now there have been characters who have been named like Beldor, Tyra 

  

Now so far we know Morfydd Clark will be playing Galadriel in the show as much as we love Cate it makes sense to go with some much younger actress to play Galadriel like they did with Bilbo Baggins in the Hobbit films. 

Galadriel will play a huge role in the series like I think we will see her origins, Her becoming Lady of Lothlorien, and seeing her get her ring of power. I could see Galadriel being somewhat of the Gandalf of the tv series because she's one of the wisest characters in the series. I can see Galadriel narrate the first episode, with her explaining this what happen in the end of the First Age and the War of Wraith. As well her talking about Numenor being rewarded to men of the west, Numenor's rise to power but she would talk about how Numenor is beginning to loose their way. Who knows what Galadriel will do in the show but all I can say is best luck to Morfydd Clark as Galadriel. 

Now the main protagonist of the show will be played Robert Aramayo now it's unknown who he will play they will say he will play character Beldor but maybe that's a cover up. I think he will be playing Aragorn's Ancestor Elendil. The First High King of Arnor and Gondor, King of all the Dunedian, Elendil the Tall, and Leader of the Faithful. Or it's possible he will play an original character.  Fun fact before this show was announced to be set in the Second Age there were rumours the show was going to be about a young Aragon and Robert Aramayo I casted him as Aragorn because of his performance as a young Ned Stark in Game of Thrones. 

Now according to reports Joseph Mawle is said to be playing the villain of the series Sauron possibly or an original villain. Now one thing that will be interesting is that Sauron will play a more active role in the show. In the films he's just evil vengeful spirit or a flaming eye on top of a tower. In the show Sauron will actually play more active role seeing him rise to power, how he got the idea of forging of the rings of power, what happened to him after Morgoth was defeated, seeing him corrupt the people of Numenor, and seeing his origins too if do that route. I don't know if it is Sauron he's playing it might a new character but we'll just have to wait and see.  Though it is possible Joseph is playing one of the nine men who was turn into a Ringwraith or he's the Witch King before he was the Witch King. It would be interesting to learn who the nazgul were both they were corrupted by Sauron. 

Ismael Cruz Cordova now I think he might be playing an original character either from Numenor, a Harad, or he's playing an Elf from Rivendell or from The Noldor, or Lothlorien. I have a theory he is playing Celebrimbor. The show will likely have Celebrimbor since the show will dive into how the one ring and the rings of power were forged by Celebrimbor and Sauron. I feel Celebrimbor's role in the show is that he is warned by Galadriel not trust this Annatar who is Sauron in a fair form but he goes ahead anyway and forges the rings of powers. It back fires on him and he does whatever he can to atone for he has done, but sadly I think the first season will end with Celebrimbor's death but he dies a hero in someway. I think Celebrimbor will talk about his grandfather Fingolfin and his father Curufin, and his uncles and the oath they pledge to take back the Silmarils from Morgoth. I think the show will talk more of the events of the First Age of Middle Earth than the films did. It would be interesting to dive more into the events of The First Age.  

I know many fans will be mixed about them race swapping Celebrimbor if it happens, but remember Amazon's Lord of the Rings Tv Series will be more diverse than's Jackson's films. Which is all right I'm fine with that idea but make sure the characters are interesting, well written, and stay true to the source material. But most of all focus on the story and don't forced any agendas down our throats.

Markella Kavenagh will play an original character an elf named Tyra it's unknown what type of character Tyra is. I did hear that Tyra is kind and caring. Tyra could be an elven warrior from Rivendell, an elven maid of Galadriel, or she is one of the elves of the Noldor or possibly the wife or daughter Celebrimbor. Depending if they include a wife or daughter just like the Shadow of Mordor games did. I just hope she's well written in the show and she has a purpose being on the show. I don't want her there for no reason because if were going to have original characters they have to have a purpose on the show.  The same goes to all the original characters they must have a purpose on the show and they must written well. 

Nazanin Boniadi is either playing an original character or pre existing character. Like I think she could be playing a Harad who could be a queen of Harad Tribe or an Easterling lady whose character may or may not be a villain. I do for see in the show they are going to have good Harads and Easterlings. It is likely going to happened. There is also the possibility she might be playing Tar Mirel the last Queen of Numenor.  

Tom Budge I think will play an original character but he could play a pre existing character. He might be playing an original character like a man from Numenor who likely became corrupted by Sauron and became Black Numenor. There is the possibility he's playing a member of the faithful or he's playing an elf possibly King Gil Galad of the Noldor. He also could be playing Ar Pharazon the Golden the last King of Numenor or he's playing Sauron's fair form Anntar or one of the nine nazgul maybe the Witch King.     

Ema Horvath I think will play an original character I can see her playing Elendil's wife or they aren't marry yet in the first season. In the books we never get to know Elendil's wife and the mother of Isildur and Anarion. I think the show will interduce Elendil's unmentioned wife the first Queen of Arnor and Gondor depending if she didn't get sacrifice at the temple of Melkor. She also could be playing an elf like Elrond's wife Celebrian. 

Maxim Baldry is playing either an original character or pre existing character from the Second Age. For original he might be playing an elf from the Noldor or a man from Numenor who could be one of Elendil's best friends. He also could be playing a middle man from Middle Earth or he could be playing an Easterling who might be a villain or a good guy. He also could be one of the Nazgul before the rings of power were forged. 

  

Charles Vickers I think he will play an original character or pre existing character. I can see him playing the ancestor of Boromir and Faramir and is one of the early founders of House Hurin who's descendants became the first Stewards of Gondor. Also I would see him being one of Elendil's best friends and right hand man. He also could be playing an elf from Lothlorien or he could be playing a much younger Elrond or Celeborn Galadriel's husband and Lord of Lothlorien.  

Daniel Weyman I think he could be playing an original character or pre existing character. I can see him playing an elf from Rivendell or a ranger, or he could be playing an orc. Like we could get an orc villain in the show that's either one of Sauron's generals or an orc who once served Morgoth but doesn't like Sauron. Don't expect any good orcs on the show I don't think Tolkien Estate would allow that. He also could be playing one of nine nazgul before they became the nazgul or he could be playing the King of the Mountains before he became King of the Dead. 

Owain Arthur I can see him playing a dwarf, a man from Numenor, or a hobbit. We don't know if hobbits were in the Second Age there is no mention of them at all, but maybe we could see some hobbits on the show. Maybe we will see them as tribes before they formed the Shire. He also could be playing a dwarf from the Moria, and The Iron Hills, He could be playing one of the seven dwarf lords who received a ring of power or one of the nine men who became the Nazgul. It's also possible he's playing a hobbit who is ancestor of Frodo, Sam, Merry, or Pippin.

Dylan Smith I think will be playing a pre existing character or an original character. I think Dylan could be playing Amandil, Elendil's father and the Last Lord of the Faithful. He also could be playing one of the nine Nazgul. Also there is possibility he could be playing a hobbit maybe ancestor of Frodo, Sam, Pippin, or Merry. Again if there are Hobbits in the show. 

Sophia Nomvete I can see playing an original character like I can see her as a hobbit like a barfoot hobbit. Those are hobbits that live in hill sides and highlands they also have close relationships with dwarves. It's also possible she's playing a woman from Numenor or a lady dwarf from The Iron Hills or Moria.

Megan Richards I think will play an original character I think she could be playing a daughter of a Numenor Lord or she is female dwarf from Moria or The Iron Hills. 

Tyroe Muhafidin I think will be playing an original character he might be playing possibly a young Isildur or he's Elendil's squire or the young son of a Harad lord who's rebellious and doesn't want to fight for Sauron. He also could be playing an elf child like maybe the son of Celebrimbor. Who likely dies a horrible death that will make audience cry and hate Sauron. In the books it's not mention of Celebrimbor was married or had children but I think with what Shadow of Mordor games did they might include a family to make it more tragic for the character of Celebrimbor.

So that's speculation on who the cast is playing in the upcoming show. One thing I'm hoping for is the original characters have a purpose being in the show and not forced down our throats. Here's an example, Look at Tauriel from the Hobbit films she is an original character. They created because they wanted add more female characters to the films and Tauriel is now a popular character in the franchise. Tauriel is likeable, she's a skilled warrior and bad ass fighter, she had a good romance story arc with Kili, and you feel for her when Kili dies. Tauriel is one of many good examples of an original character that is well liked and accepted by fans. 

For Amazon's original characters make sure they are well written, likeable, don't force them down our throats, and don't make the same mistakes Star Wars, Stark Trek Discovery, and Dr. Who have done. Also keep the real world politics out of the show. Although I doubt that will happen because the Tolkien Estate will not allow that to happen because again they've made strict rules with Amazon.

(Google Image)

Overall I'm excited for this show but nervous too because we all know Lord of the Rings is the only beloved franchise that doesn't have divided fan base. Let's face it Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, DC, Dr. Who, all have divided fan bases Lord of the Rings does not. But, you know a friend of mine once said when this show comes out fans will likely get divided even if the Tolkien Estate has made strict rules with Amazon on what they can and can't do there is a good chance Amazon might do something to upset the fans. I do have to agree with him it could happen I hope it doesn't but anything can happen. 

(Google Image)

None the less I'm very excited for this show and can't wait to see it. Me and all the Tolkien Fans just want it to be good, respecting Tolkien's work, Not changing anything from the Lore, and we hope the cast and writers do a good job.

Also if I were cast any actors to play certain characters in the show heres who I would cast. 

Andrew Lincoln as Amandill

Antony Starr as Ar Pharazon 

Gemma Arterton as Tar Miriel

Kate Beckinsale as Amandill's wife (Depending if the show will feature his wife.)

Colin Firth as Tar Palantir 

Guy Pearce as Gimiklhad leader of The King's Men

Matthew Goode as King Gil Galad

For Isildur and Anarion go with unknowns. 

If the cast is playing original characters that weren't in the book, please give them a good reason for their existence on the show. Also another thing no pandering or forced politics focus on telling a good story and good characters. Let us hope this show delivers and honours Tolkien's work. 

Let me know what you think of my speculation who do you think these actors are playing on the show. What your thoughts on the upcoming series leave comment and let me know.  Also if you guys want to see my predictions on what each season will be about here's link to my predictions of the Lord of the Rings Show.

My Disney Renaissance Movies Review

Disney Renaissance Movie Reviews

Now we all love Disney films especially the ones from the 90s. The Renaissance era was the best era of Disney animated films great 2D animation, memorable songs, beloved character we've grown with over years, and more importantly it's our childhood. 

Here are my reviews of Disney Renaissance films.

Let's do this review in proper order. 

First the one that started it all

10. The Little Mermaid.

The Little Mermaid is a film that I don't really don't care for that much anymore. Don't get me wrong Little Mermaid was the film that started it all but looking back at it now I'm not too big on it. I know people who love Little Mermaid and if you love it that's cool. As for me looking back at it, I just think it's okay but will the say the animation is really good and the voice acting is really good too. The characters in the film are very funny and well written like Sebastian he is one of the best characters in the film. However, Ariel now as a kid I had a crush on her but as I got older looking at her now she doesn't learn anything in the end she gets what she wanted. Hell, in the original book she learn a lesson after she killed herself and if you play Kingdom Hearts 2 she actually learns a lesson.
The voice cast all did a great job like Jodi Benson as Ariel, she was fantastic and I will Ursula was a scary villain like she scared me as a kid.
Overall Little Mermaid is a classic but looking at now it's good but it's not my type of film.
I give Little Mermaid 6 out of 10.

9. Rescuers Down Under.

Now what can I tell ya about Rescuers Down Under this a film I really do enjoy this film watching. I really like this one more than the original film because the animation is better and it feels more epic. I also love John Candy as the voice of Wilbur I think he was the funniest character in the whole film. The villain of the film was really good too as well the rest of film I was at the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen. This film also is the reason Disney stopped making theatrical sequels to their works only direct to dvd sequels but that all change in 2018 and 2019 with Wreck It Ralph 2 and Frozen 2 though. Overall this a fun film a lot better than the first in my opinion I give this film a 7 out of 10.


8. Beauty and The Beast

Tale as Old as Time Beauty and the Beast, now I really do love this film it's part of my childhood with such great characters, great music, beautiful animation, and the story is good too. The film's characters Belle and The Beast are great characters and the supporting cast are great too like Lumaire is my favourite character along with Cogsworth like I wish they got a series together but that will sadly never happen RIP Jerry Orbach and David Ogden Stiers they were talent guys. The villain in the film Gaston he is one of the best villains because he would be the hero of film like he would save the day in the end but nah, he's the villain who wants Belle no matter what even though are three women who madly in love with him. Why doesn't just. go with them. It was pointed this film does have few issues I understand those issues they don't tell you how long it's been since Belle's been in the castle it could be just a couple days maybe a month who knows. The live action revealed she was there for three days because of magical enchainment that's why I can't stand those live action remakes (Not Cinderella and Jungle Book though they were great.)
Overall I enjoy this film it's part of my childhood I also love that Beast VS Wolves scene that was an epic as well as that climax between Beast and Gaston. The ending of the film is really heartwarming too.
I give Beauty and the Beast a 8 out of 10.
Fun Fact I got to meet Pagie O'Hara and Robby Benson they were really nice people.

7. Aladdin

What can I say about this film I love this film it is one of my favourite films out of the renaissances era. I mean the animation is great, the characters are amazing, and the music is spectacular. This movie has been part of my childhood for years and I love everything about it especially Robin Williams as the Genie it still feels weird that he is no longer with us because he was the best part of the film. The rest of the characters are amazing like Aladdin is a great protagonist you can relate to him too and Jasmine is wonderful character too, plus Jafar is a great villain as well that epic fight between Aladdin and Jafar's snake form was awesome. Iago was really funny I loved how they redeemed him in the sequels. I really do love this film it's amazing and a childhood classic. It makes me sad too because it makes me miss Robin Williams because he will always be the Genie.
I give Aladdin 9 out of 10.

 6. The Lion King

What can be said about this amazing film it is one of the best Disney films out there. It's such a classic until Disney came out with that live action remake crap. The film's animation is beautiful and breathtaking, the story is amazing taking inspiration from Hamlet, the characters in the film are memorable and very well written. The film has great messages like we all have to face our past and it can hurt, but we can learn from it. This film also had a great voice cast and great songs too like Hakuna Matata, Be Prepared, The Circle of Life, and Can You Feel The Love Tonight. Great songs that I still listen too. The characters in the film Simba, Nala, Timmon, Pumma, Zazu, Mufasa, Sibera, and Scar who is one of the best Disney Villains are all amazing characters. I love this film this is one of my favourite Disney films and makes me cry especially when Mufasa dies.
I give Lion King 10 of 10.

I seriously don't understand why Disney had to do a live action remake?

The animals don't even have emotional expressions!

5. Pocahontas

Pocahontas I know many consider this film to be the weakest film of the renaissance but to me in my opinion I actually enjoy this film. My older sister loves this film and I personally like it I know it has problems but I really do enjoy this film like Pocahontas is a great character even though in real life Pocahontas had a tragic story but this film gives it a more bitter sweet ending. I feel like the story is good but there could have been more done, I like the characters of the this film because I feel for them, the villain I feel is really weak because he's just a greedy villain nothing interesting about him, I think the love story is really good, and the songs are actually really good too. Also the voice cast does a great job like Irene Bedard as Pocahontas, Mel Gibson as John Smith, Christain Bale as Thomas (Yeah Christain Bale aka Batman voiced Thomas.) David Oghden Stiers as Radcliffe, Russell Means as Chief Powhatan, Billy Connolly as Ben and Joe, and Linda Hunt as Grandmother Willow all did a great job.

Interesting fact John Candy was going to voice a character called Red Feather but he sadly passed away before recording his voice in fact the animals were going to talk but after he died they cancelled the idea.

Overall I like Pocahontas despite it's faults I give it a 7 out of 10. I do like this film and I think Pocahontas is a great protagonist and I like her more than the Little Mermaid.

4. The Hunchback of Norte Dame

The Bells of Norte Dame!!! Hunchback of Notre Dame is the darkest Disney film of the renaissance era. Like this film's opening is pretty dark and Frollo he is one of the most evil Disney villains. This film I really do enjoy like I find this film entertaining to watch and it's a really dark film to watch and really do feel sad for Quasimodo because all he wants to do is be accepted by society. That's the one thing they kept from Victor Hugo's work in the film because everything else is sad especially the ending. The film's message is we shouldn't judge someone for their appearance but by their character. Now I understand why some Victor Hugo fans don't like this film but I do like this film a lot. I think the characters are good, I find the songs very entertaining to listen too especially Hellfire like wow that song is so dark and grim, and I think the animation of this film is really good too. I think Frollo is a great villain in the film he's really evil believing everything he does is what God wants him to do. I find Quasimodo, Esmeralda, and Phoebus to be great characters in the film and they are very likeable characters even the gargoyles Victor, Hugo, and Laverne are likeable characters too (Fun Fact, the Gargoyles were named after Victor Hugo and his wife Laverne.) but in truth I feel like they should have just been imaginary to Quasimodo like I don't think they needed to help in the final battle in the end of the film.
Overall I do enjoy this film I know the film has some problems with it but I enjoy it none the less. I give this film a 7 out of 10.

Photo I took when I went to France in 2012 you can't help but sing the bells of Norte Dame when see it in person.

3. Hercules

I love this film, like this is one of my favourite Disney films like it's such a fun film. Like I really enjoy this film a lot the music is good, the animation is really good, and the characters are great too. To be honest I actually was routing for Hades I mean he is one of the best characters in the film and you actually feel for him more than Hercules. I think Hercules is a good character but I like Hades more also love Phil played by the always amazing Danny Devito. Also I do love Meg she is one of the best characters in the films and if you think about it she is the real hero of the film not Hercules. Let me explain, that's because she sacrificed her life to save Hercules near the end if you think about it Meg represents what a true hero is and that makes Hercules realized that a Hero is not measured by his strength but by the strength of his heart. Meg represents what a true hero plus she is so cool why isn't she a Disney princess? I mean she's such an amazing character. Hercules himself is still really good character like you feel for him because he just wants people to accept him but they fear him because of his god like strength. I also like the workout montage he has in the film too and I do think Hercules get some great character development.
I love this film it's so much fun to watch and it's a feel good film too. The action in this film is really good too like Hercules fighting the Hydra that was really cool fight scene with some really good animation.
I really do love this film I give it a 9 out of 10.

Seriously can't help but love this guy like I actually was routing for him.

2. Mulan

Ah Mulan, another great film from the 90s. Mulan is such a great film to watch, with good characters and great story based on the Chinese legend of Fa Mulan. The songs in this film are very entertaining to listen to especially Make A Man Out of You I listen to that when I work out. I really love the character of Mulan I think she's an amazing protagonist and unlike the other Diseny princesses she saved an entire nation from being conquered. I love Mushu he is one of the funniest characters in the film played by Eddie Murphy. The other characters like Shang he's one of the coolest characters in the film and when his dad dies you do feel for him a lot. His romance with Mulan is really good like the two don't kiss in the end but they show their feelings to each other in the end when Mulan asks Shang to stay for dinner. Ling, Chien Po, and Yao are funny characters like I think Yao, Ling, and Chien Po should get a tv series like that would be funny show to watch. I love the battles in this film it was really intense and very entertaining to watch as well. The other characters are great too This film is amazing and it is worth watching again but please don't watch Mulan 2 that film is awful.

I give Mulan an 9 out of 10. 

I really hope that live action remake doesn't screw it up.

1. Tarzan 

Now we come to the last Renaissance film, the one ended it all Tarzan. I love Tarzan it's one of my favourite Disney films and it ended the renaissance era. What I love most about Tarzan was the Phil Collins songs like Two Worlds, You'll be in my Heart, Son of Man, and Strangers Like Me. The animation and the way that Tarzan surfs on those trees and vines is really cool but to be honest in real life he would have a huge amount of splinters on his feet plus he would have had bad teeth and a beard too. But besides all that this film is very entertaining to watch like Tarzan is a great character and he's really cool too, Jane is a great character very smart and very likeable, Turk and Tantor are really funny characters, Kala was great too voiced Glenn Close, and Kerchak at first you don't like him but he later grows on you. The villain Clayton though he could have been better written I feel because he's just a greedy villain who wants make money off of selling apes and killing apes. Now don't get me wrong I don't like the idea of hunting exotic animals or stuffing them or forcing them to live in cages that's all wrong in my eyes. 

I still really enjoy this film the story is really good and the film does bring tears in my eyes like when Tarzan tells Kala that no matter where he goes she will always be his mother its a very touching scene. This film also has a message of two different worlds but one family and we see that with Kerchak who finally accepts Tarzan as his son before he dies and names him the new leader of the tribe of apes. It's really emotional scene but it's always important to accept people for who they are. 

I give Tarzan an 8 out of 10. 

So that's my review of the Disney Renaissance these films are still entertaining to watch and very nostalgic. Now of course when we get older we do see these films they have plot holes and moments that don't make sense but it won't change the fact we love these movies still.

(Google Image)

Even though Disney has already remade four of the Renaissance films and are planning to remake two more of these films. When will Disney realize were getting sick of these remakes we just want something more original like if Disney wants to remake movies that didn't do well with critics, or didn't have enough story or character development or were box office failures. Just remake those films or better yet just give us something new and original. 

Still getting back to point this was my favourite era of Disney films I love these films I grew up with these movies. If I ever become a dad I will definitely show these films to my kids. So that's my review of the Disney Renaissance films let me know what you think leave a comment and what was favourite era of Disney films. I hope one day Disney will go back to its old roots and make great and original films like these ones. Here's hoping.

See ya real soon! 

Union Jack TV Series Fan Cast and Ideas

My Union Jack TV Series Fan Cast and Ideas

Now Union Jack is somewhat Britain's Captain America now some of you may say but isn't Captain Britain England's Captain America? Yes but he has powers and Union Jack doesn't he's more like Cap except he doesn't have super soldier serum in him. He is more of a street live hero because he was born into a working class family.

Now if you've seen Captain America The First Avenger and my Wolverine Fan Cast. The character of James Montgomery Falsworth was in Captain America the First Avenger, but he never wore the outfit. In my Wolverine film I had the character's father in the film as Union Jack and a member of the Invaders. Now I think it's time we give this character some more love and hey one of the Black Panther producers wants to make a film about this character but I think TV series might work better I'm cool with a movie Union Jack could be Marvel's 007. Also director choices for a Union Jack film Matthew Vaughn, Guy Ritchie, Sam Mendes, and Martin Campbell. 

The tv show would be about Joseph Chapman who is not part of the Falsworth family but takes up mantle mainly because he has what it takes to be Union Jack. The tv series would be ten episodes and it would be an hour long. First here is my fan cast and ideas for a Union Jack TV Series and the show would be on be on Disney Plus.

First here is my cast for the show and later I'll talk about my ideas for a Union Jack Show.


Sam Claflin as Joseph Chapman/Union Jack

 Joseph Chapman is not a member of the Falsworth family but takes up the mantle of Union Jack by request from his friend Kenneth Falswoth who was supposed to take over but believe that Joseph was better suited for Union Jack. Joseph grew up in the working-class family, his father was a shipbuilder until his death. When Joseph was a kid ashamed of his father for not getting enough in his station. When became an adult he respected his father and saw all the struggles he did was to give Joseph a university degree. While Joseph was studying art he met Kenneth and introduce to his family as Kenneth sees Joseph as the next Union Jack. He now he protects England from vampires, terrorists, and street criminals, and occasionally has arguments with Captain Britain. The show would explore his origins, how he became Union Jack, How he earn it, Seeing him become a symbol for Great Britain, and a champion for the working man.

Lilly James as Jacqueline Falsworth/Spitfire

 Spitfire would appear in the show as a love interest, now this version she is granddaughter of the James Montgomery Falsworth from First Avenger. She had two brothers an older one named Brian who was became the second Union Jack until his death in car accident, and another older brother named Kenneth who turned down the offer. Jacqueline was offered to take up the mantle but she declined the role too.  Jacqueline gets vampire powers from her dead great uncle Baron Blood luckily she got hyper speed, flame powers, and super strength, from the original Human Torch now rebuild and his blood help prevent her from becoming a full vampire. She takes the code name Spitfire after the Supermarine Spitfire airplane in WW2.  Unlike the comics she is not the daughter of the Original Union Jack, She did not fight with the Invaders, Kenneth is her brother not her son, and she's not married.

Iwan Rhedon as Baron Blood

Baron Blood would return in the tv series seeking revenge on his family. He is revived by Baroness Blood's father by using a dark ritual with some science. When Baron Blood returns he realizes how times have change and he learns his brother is dead but now he seeks revenge on his brother's descendants and destroying the legacy of Union Jack. Baron would be the main villain in the first season also he would work with Baroness Blood he would be his lover. Baron Blood doesn't just want to kill the Falsworth he wants to turn them into vampires like him. 


Pierce Brosnan as Lord James Falsworth the Third/The Second Union Jack.

Now in this version James is the son of the James Falsworth from Captain America The First Avenger. He is now retired as Union Jack and living a nice life but wants the Union Jack Legacy to continued. At one point his son Brian took up the mantle of Union Jack but sadly Brian was killed in car crash. James pushed for his son Kenneth to take up the mantle but Kenneth had no desire so than he approached his daughter Jacqueline to take up the mantle but she didn't want to either. It was until Kenneth interduce his friend Joseph as someone who has what it takes to be the new Union Jack. At first James said no for only a Falsworth should carry on the mantle but later he sees that Joseph has what it takes and England needs a Union Jack. He eventually pass away due to cancer but he happy to know the Union Jack Legacy will live on through Joseph.

Ed Speleers as Kenneth Falsworth

Kenneth Falsworth or Kenneth Crichton as he was in the comics and was the son of Spitfire but I change the characters as brother and sister instead. Now in the show Kenneth and Joesph meet at university and they became good friends. Later in the show Kenneth brings Joesph to his family's estate were he suggested to his dying father that Joesph was the right candidate to become the next Union Jack. Kenneth was offered to take the role of Union Jack but he turn it down for he felt he wasn't the right one for the job. Later in the show Kenneth is bitten by Baron Blood and turns into a vampire which means Joseph and Jacqueline must either save him or kill Kenneth. Kenneth would appear only as series regular.

Evanna Lynch as Lilly Cromwell/Baroness Blood

Baroness Blood is will serve as secondary villain in the show. Baroness Blood aka Lilly Cromwell was the daughter of a village doctor named Jacob Cromwell who was summoned by Dracula to revive Baron Blood from the ashes of when The Human Torch killed him. Her father revived him using some dark magic and science. After Baron blood was alive again he then killed her father and her sister but he turn her into a vampire. Thus she became Baroness Blood as well as his lover cause later on we learn she hated her family and wanted to have the powers of a vampire. She now works with Baron Blood to kill the Union Jack legacy and take over all of England.

He would appear in a flashbacks.

Billy Boyd as Rickey Chapman

Rickey Chapman is Joesph's uncle who owns a pub who looked after Joesph after his father died. He was very caring uncle and even helps Joesph get into university as well giving him a part time job working at his pub. He would appear as a series regular.

Sophia McShare as Romany Wisdom

Rommy Wisdom is a friend of Joesph and ex-girlfriend. The two remained friends and she later helps Joseph on his missions and she's a huge history fanatic and knows a lot about ancient cultures such as vampires. She would appear in the first season and first season only.

Inbar Lavi as Ruth Bat Seraph/Sabra

Ruth Bat Seraph is an agent of MI6 and would be an alley to to Union Jack. Ruth is also a mutant as well and she originally from Israeli. Ruth is also a speaker in mutants rights and was transfer from Israeli to England and now works for MI6. She would appear in the first season and would have a much bigger role in season two.

Russell Tovey as Roger Aubery/The Destroyer

Destroyer was a former superhero and lover of the second Union Jack, Brian Falsworth. Roger retired as a superhero after the death of Brian Falsworth. When Roger learns of the new Union Jack, Joesph Chapman refuses to accept Joesph as Union Jack for in his eyes Union Jack ended after Brain's death. Eventually in time he grew to accept Joseph as the new Union Jack. He would appear as a series regular.

Mena Massoud as Navid Hashim/Arabian Knight

Navid Hashim is a Saudi Arabian warrior who takes up the mantle of Arabian Knight from Abdul Qamar. For Arabian Knight is basically the Captain America of Saudi Arabia but instead of a shield he wields a sword. He is recruited by Ruth who was an old friend of his to join MI6 to take down Baron Blood. He would be in the first season but play a bigger role in season two.

Emily Ratajkowski as Valentina Allgra De Fontaine

Valentina is a SHIELD agent from Italy. Her family the De Fontaine were secretly working with Nicholas Fury during WW1 upon hearing the stories Valentina grew up and became a SHIELD agent. In the show she joins MI6 to take down Baron Blood for her family had a part in taking down Baron Blood. She would appear as a series regular.

Liam Hemsworth as Jim Hammond/The Human Torch

The Original Human Torch would appear and in my first Wolverine film Jim was in it and I wrote he would later be brought back to life after he self destruct to kill Baron Blood. He would appear in the show but only for a few episodes, he transfers his blood to Jacqueline thus giving her flame powers like the comics. By the end of the first season Jim than talks Joseph and Jacqueline about joining the new Invaders team.

Now here are my ideas for a Union Jack TV Series on Disney Plus.

5. Take Inspiration from the comics and the 007 franchise.

Union Jack would be more of a super spy rather and soldier character rather than being a superhero. Like I would also look the 007 films for inspiration too like Union Jack could be the MCU's answer to a James Bond type character.


4. Make Union Jack a symbol of the working class man.

Now Joesph Chapman is not of the higher up class but is the actually of the working class man and this series could make the character a symbol for the working class man. Like Union Jack not only represent England but is a symbol of hope to the working class. Also Union Jack becomes more of an street level hero than a military hero.


3. Explore Union Jack History and develop a strong romance between Union Jack and Spitfire.

Now in my Wolverine fan cast I didn't want to focus on Union Jack because it's a Wolverine film, but for a tv series I would dive more into the history of Union Jack and how Union Jack got started and how long it's been around. Like we can learn there's been Union Jack's since King Arthur and that is true. Also in the show there will be a romance between Joseph and Jacqueline but unlike the comics it's not awkward because in the comics she is the mother of Kenneth plus due her vampire blood she doesn't age anymore. However, in the comics they did get together but they ended it because it felt weird and wrong. Since I change that to Jacqueline being Kenneth's sister instead it less awkward and doesn't feel wrong.


2. Maybe set up a Union Jack and Captain Britain team up that could lead into Knights of Pendragon.

With likely chances of a Captain Britain film going to happen in the future I think we need to see Union Jack and Captain Britain team up or maybe fight. Like two have of them would team up maybe even set up Knights of Pendragon.


1. Set up Union Jack and Spitfire to join the all new Invaders.

Now I'm planning to do an Invaders film fan cast and ideas. Now Union Jack will be one of main characters of the team and I think the first season would end with Joseph and Jacqueline meeting Jim aka Torch who talks to them about joining a team that will fight terrorists and defend all nations from Hydra, Neo Nazis, and many more dangerous enemies. That team is the Invaders. I think the Invaders need a adaption they were first marvel superhero team and I think now that all the rights are back it's time to interduce this team like I did with my first Wolverine film but as WW1 team instead of WW2.
   

So that's my Union Jack TV Series Fan Cast and Ideas let me know what you think 

and I know it's been sometime since posted something on blog just been really busy.

This is a character I never read about but I'm planning to give Union Jack a read sometime in the future.

Till then Stay Safe everyone.
