[Note from Frolic: We are so beyond excited to have Let’s Play creator Mongie guest post on the site today. If you haven’t read Let’s Play yet….WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!]
I’ll be honest, I’m really clueless when it comes to American actors, despite being born and raised in the breadbasket of the US. It’s just that the only shows I watch these days are streaming British Murder Mysteries and true crime shows in excess. But hopefully, I was able to put together decent list! And I definitely took advantage of the term “dream cast” as some of the actors on this list are no longer with us, or are older than the character I cast them for (most of Let’s Play characters are in their early to mid-20s.)
When I created the characters of Let’s Play, I didn’t have a particular actor or celebrity personality in mind. And if Let’s Play ever did become live-action show, then I would personally love to see new talent given the opportunity to play some of the roles.
Ultimately, Let’s Play is a romcom, but there are also a lot of serious and heavy moments in the storyline for a number of the characters. So the actors would need to be versatile in order to portray the wide range of emotions the characters of LP experience.
Also, there is a very diverse cast of Let’s Play, and I wasn’t able to find existing actors for all of them!

As for Charles, I think Michael Fassbender would have fit him since it is a homme fatale we are talking about. His work was pretty great in some different films, both average and indie films.
