Title: MLP as Real People?
Post by: Anyponedrawn on 2016-07-26 15:41:57
I saw something like this on a topic on this board already, but thought we could have fun with it and go in-depth.


So lets say we had to have live action people play characters of MLP:FiM in like a movie or broadway show or something.... have you ever seen people who remind you of the show's characters, or do you have someone who would be great for the part?  They don't have to be famous.  Just share pics of who you think would be good for who.

Me as Fluttershy :P

No jk, uhm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
This is actually fun to ponder. I'd have to think about this more.

I haven't put any thought into it, but it was something HulkbowSmash posted that got me thinking.  I have no idea at the moment though.

John De Lancie as Discord?  Does that work?

Samantha as AJ?  I mostly made the comparison 'cause she reminded me of the pic I linked.  If I had to put her in a MLP role I'd probably see her as Dashie, or more likely one of the other Wonderbolts.

We'd probably have to cast at least one minority actress... a lot of fanart has Twilight as Indian (dot, not feather) and either Rarity or Fluttershy as Asian. 

How about Cree Summer as Zecora?  She has both a knack for accents and a "granola girl" vibe to her.

I've always seen Twilight portrayed as Asian because of her eyes. And Raroty as white. Dash as Latina (or just tanned from all the running she does outside), AJ would be white, but she'd have that farmers tan. And then Fluttershy... I like when they give her an olive skin tone. Pinkie, not sure.

Samantha Wright.  I just checked it out.  She's a cutie.  Nice thighs and butt. :)

I think Samantha Wright would be a good Rainbow Dash.  You need some a tad more... traditional in hairstyle to be Rainbow Dash.

Though I guess for the roles, they would have to fix em' up right.

I'm trying to think for Twilight... Zooey Deschanel?

I don't know who she would be... but I feel Amanda Bynes could be a funny character.

Would Jennette McCurdy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennette_McCurdy) be an okay Applejack or too young?  She sings country music, or did...  Add a few freckles and you could almost call it good maybe.

Or maybe just get Ashleigh Ball (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashleigh_Ball) can do the singing.

Didn't she have some... issues a while back? Didn't she set fire to a neighbor's lawn? Or take a crap on it? Or take a crap on the neighbor's lawn and set fire to that? Something. If she takes her meds and can be trusted,  I guess....

She probably did.... but who cares for this.  Just trying to find people who could fill these roles in part of their looks, not necessarily their ''at home'' behavior or acting credo.

The problem is, a lot of the actresses I can think of would have been great for these sorts of roles, like,  ten or 12 years ago.  It's okay for a gal in her forties to play a Pony behind the mike, sure, but could she make it work live on stage?  Or are we trying to find some young ingenue with the chops of a young Winona Ryder, or a Meryl-Streep-back-when-she-did- Kramer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kramer_vs._Kramer) quality? I mean, Melissa Rauch (Bernadette on The Big Bang Theory), for example, has a delightful Pinkie-Pie-ish squeak to her voice. .. but a 35-year-old woman playing a character who acts like a daffy teenager might come off more creepy than cute.

I know, thats the tough part. :-/  It is really tough to find someone who is "known" to play the part.  Probably a lot of unknowns.  Cosplayers come to mind, but I don't know any of their names. ;)

Ashleigh's got my vote.  She's got the voice and she's hot enough to play best mudpone.

Soooo...Pinkie Pie?

Yeah, she can do Pinkie Pie.

Cool comic idea.

I had to look up who Samantha Wright was... she might be a good Rainbow Dash.  She looks athletic.

I'm at a loss of who to pick really.  It is hard to do that.  Someone will eventually just one day "click" for the role.

Well, Linda Cardinelli made a pretty good Velma in Scooby-Doo, so how about her for Twilight?  (I actually thought she was Eurasian, because her dark wig and glasses made her look strikingly like this cute Japanese girl I used to dine with in college.)  So she's no stranger to playing cute geeks.  Plus if you're going for a more... adult interpretation of MLP:FIM, she's proven she can do that too--just check out Robot Chicken's take on Scooby-Doo and Friday the 13th (esp. the end credits.  Clearly that gal was having fun that day.).

Good idea.  Would she be too old for the role though, but I agree, she can pull off that role, even if the Scooby live action films were complete garbage.

She's actually almost three months older than I am-- holy crap!-- but  has proven she can play ten-15 years younger.

If Pinkie Pie is as playful as a real person, I wouldn't mind hanging out together, haha.

Funny, I would agree with that... she can't be so annoying, but I'd rather hang out with her as a person then a pone.  (if i was pone too)
