Fuck, no. If that happens, and I can tell it’s happening beforehand, I’m just plain not watching the series. It’s not “an episode”, hell, I gave a lot more of a shit about the Lakeside part than the Gods part, actually.
So Hendricks for Bilquis, instead? Ēostre wasn’t a fertility goddess, she was goddess of the dawn/spring/renewal
Bilquis was Queen of Sheba, in modern-day Yemen. I’ve known plenty of Yemenite women, and they don’t look like Christina Hendricks.
Yeah, I know. I was riffing on the fertility goddess thing.
Not saying cutting the Lakeside story would be a good thing, just something I could see happening.
OK, that totally blows my mental image. I remember I’d form a face, then see it dashed in a later description. I finally gave up and stuck with Page Kennedy.
I hope they don’t take out the Lakeside part - that was one of the mosty memorable parts. Donald Sutherland might make a good Hinzelmann - kindly old man, steward of the village… with a ghastly secret.
I’ll have to go back and read the book again because I can’t remember how lakeside fits in with the rest of the story. Kind of seems like an afterthought to me now.
How about Christoph Waltz as Hinzelmann?
For the god everyone forgets, you could get that one guy, what was his name again? He was in that thing…
Inspired by the show Graceland, I’m wondering if Daniel Sunjata would be a good choice for Shadow.
Granted, like the Fast and Furious movie series, it’s a show that seems to exude actors/actresses who could play a variety of ethnicities.
