Just for fun, I have put together a fan cast for a Red Dead show. I made this purely for fun and this doesn’t mean I necessarily think a TV show of the game is a good idea as the actors in the games are perfect. Also, every character not mentioned (Tilly, Strauss, Eagle Flies, Bonnie, De Santa etc) I think should be played by a newcomer actor. My aim here was to make the casting as realistic as possible so I’ve tried casting some less known actors. I’ve also left out Irish specifically as I think this character should be cut out of a TV adaption and replaced by Uncle as I don’t think Irish would work as well on TV. If anyone has any questions regarding the stranger choices, please let me know! Would be happy to answer.
