Seriously? must i explain myself?
LOOK AT ALL THESE BEAUTIFUL MEN AND TELL ME THEY DON'T HAVE THE AURA OF SEVERUS SNAPE!!!!! ALL THESE MEN HAVE THE SARCASTIC, DEPRESSED, GENIUS, DONE WITH LIFE AURA AND YOU CANT TELL ME OTHERWISE
I also think Gabriel Marques, Simone Baldasseroni, and Tamino Amir also fit
Yes, well Snape is also ugly in canon and yet you don't complain about Alan Rickman or the fancasts of him as a young man in which they use models.
DIRTY HYPOCRITE
The actors are canon, at least for the movies (let's not confuse the two things)
In the books Snape is described as unattractive, as much as I love Alan he isn't really good looking. He has charm, he can be intriguing, but he doesn't look typically handsome. I've met people who think he's really ugly (HERESY!)
Example Louis Garrel is one of the most popular, I like him but still, not the typically handsome face, he could very well be Snape, with the pronounced nose (even if not aquiline) the complexion matches, as do the dark eyes and gaze.
Adam Driver, do we want to talk about him?
Am I the only one who remembers how many attacks he received for his appearance in Star Wars?
I don't think I need to say anything else.
Tamino Amir is another one who is becoming quite popular and still quite lives up to the description in the books.
Don't try to compare things.
Fancasts have always preferred to choose handsome actors and that's not really the problem. But portraying Peter as skinny is disrespectful.
In the end, don't come into my private messages to insult me.
I'm open to dialogue but if you're just here to vent, you can leave.
As much as i wish Adrien Brody was cast to portray Severus Snape in the new tv show i'm sure that's not going to happen since he's american and Rowling would never make an exception especially for a major character so... my next choice would be
MATT SMITH. (Doctor Who, House of the Dragons, The Crown). He's older (40) than Snape but tbh it's just a detail.
i NEED the marauders girlies to look at Dominic Sessa bc that's Remus Lupin right there im sorry but Andrew Garfield will never come close he's lacking the tall weirdo gene
Thinking of Wolfstar and how I sound like a freak trying to explain how
This
Became this
Like I would love to explain how around 2014, there was a sudden rise and resurrection second coming of christ our lord saviour Wolfstar. And, we fancasted so hard that almost 10 years later, we’re still stuck on this. And how most of the hp queer fandom started to latch onto these characters cause there was no other representation and these two started it all.
In the wake of she-who-shall-not-be-named spitting in our trans brothers and sisters’ faces, more of the hp fandom has retreated to the Marauders Era (a completely fanon lore with POCs and Queer people). That somehow this fanon non-profit lore had a better understanding of the world than canon and redeemed Slytherins by showing how inter-generational trauma affected them. By showing us that Bellatrix Lestrange was only a pawn in the Black family’s game. That Narcissa and Regulus were only doing what they had to do to survive. Sirius’ madness was not just for eccentric reasons.
This fandom highlighted the treatment of house elves. Talked about slavery. Talked about Queen Dame Lily EVANS’ childhood!! She wasn’t just a plot device to redeem Severus Snape. She was the muggle voice in the group. She was the witch that was outcasted by her muggle sister because she believed in magic. She was minority in two worlds. She was the Marauders’ friend. She wasn’t a prude or a damsel to be saved. She wasn’t just Harry’s mother. She was one of the brightest witches of her time. Harry inherited her WIT, her perseverance, her defiance, her pride, unrelenting nature. Harry Potter inherited more than her eyes. He inherited her ability to thrive in the face of trauma.
Joanne could have never given this to us. I don’t think any one person could give us this. This was a collection of rewritten lore from people who loved the universe it created but wished to be seen. And, I love my sometimes problematic and inconsistent little fandom.
I've been stuck between these three fancasts/faceclaims for awhile now and would love to get the opinion of The People on this. To be fair, I chose the most "Eileen" pictures of each of them to showcase. Also it's just a merry coincidence that they all happen to be musicians I like. Anyway more photos below
