I suppose just about everyone has to do this sooner or later, because everyone has looked at everyone else's fancasts and had lots of feelings about why everybody else is SO WRONG.
I tried to be less wrong in my own eyes, which is sure to be SO WRONG in someone else's. This is a work in progress--I am complete shite at remembering actors, for one thing. I've also only done the supernatural characters so far, frankly because they're the easiest and the most fun. I'm actually kind of surprised by how many current fan favorites turned up in here.
Angels and Demons
Aziraphale

Kenneth Branagh
Crowley

Cillian Murphy
Hastur

Benedict Cumberbatch
Ligur

Mark Sheppard
The Metatron

Alan Rickman (again!)
Beelzebub

Ron Perlman
The Four Horsepersons of the Apocalypse
War

Rooney Mara
Famine

Tom Hiddleston
Pollution

Tom Felton
DEATH

Christopher Lee (again!)
What say you?
It does bother me that they're all white. And yet, the characters in GO are so cartoonish in so many ways, especially the supernatural beings, that casting them as PoC can lead to a different kind of problematic-ness. I'd welcome feedback on this too.
