HI!! ;D It has been almost a month since my last post, I was busy with school and lack of inspirations (A) Hehe anyways, I guess you all know that Hu Ge and Liu Shi Shi are currently filming a mini-series of the Duke of Mount Deer? Promotion for the game, like Zhu Xian! So hum, yah! Why not making a recast myself with the Chinese Paladin cast? =P
Hu Ge as Wei Xiao Bao
Yuan Hong as Kang Xi
Yang Mi as A Ke
Tiffany Tang as Shuang Er
Ariel Lin as Jian Ning
Chen Zi Han as Shu Quan
Ady An as Fang Yi
Liu Shi Shi as Mu Jian Ping
Liu Yi Fei as Zeng Rou
Hu Ge as Wei Xiao Bao
Honestly, I have never thought about casting Hu Ge as Wei Xiao Bao lol...I didn't want him to shave his head!! =O But in the mini-series, he didn't have to shave his head, and from the pictures I saw, he looks quite good as Wei Xiao Bao ;D
Yuan Hong as Kang Xi
Who else lol? Well there is also Wallace Huo but somehow I think Yuan Hong looks more like a young prince (well Kang Xi is a king in the story but he was still young!!) Plus, Hu Ge and Yuan Hong worked together so many times, they have good chemistry!! hehe!
For the wives, I've chosen the actresses before casting them. Except for Chen Zi Han which I took more time to cast since the role Shu Quan is supposed to be the oldest wife so...I didn't know who to cast. I chose Yang Mi, Tiffany Tang, Ady An, Liu Shi Shi and Liu Yi Fei because they are from Chinese Paladin and most of them were paired with Hu Ge in the series. Ariel also paired up with Hu Ge in The Legend of the Condor Heroes 2008 (Tian Wai Fei Xian too but I didn't watch it).
Yang Mi as A Ke
No, I didn't cast her as A Ke because I love the Hu Ge - Yang Mi pairing and that A Ke is Wei Xiao Bao's favourite wife...It was because I think she fit the role. Basing on her performance in Chinese Paladin 3, she can be a violent and mean girl lol. Although she looked too modern in Chinese Paldin 3 and lack of classic beauty, I believe it was because of her outlook in there. Yang Mi can look more classic. But she still looks too young so I won't cast her as Chen Yuan Yuan too. If she gain some weight to look more healthy, it would be great! She will look more beautiful! ;D
Tiffany Tang as Shuang Er
I think Tang Yan do look like an innocent and obedient girl from the picture above. She looks young and cute. Plus, her acting is quite good. She can probably play a nice Shuang Er!!
Ariel Lin as Jian Ning
Well, I cast Ariel as Jian Ning because she looks funny lol I don't know why...Plus, personnally I don't think Ariel is beautiful, no offense...She isn't beautiful ennough to be A Ke, she looks too smart to be Shuang Er and Mu Jian Ping, and she is too young to be Shu Quan. Since the beginning, I give the role of Fang Yi to Ady and I don't think Liu Yi Fei can be a Jian Ning...so yah...I think Ariel fit Jian Ning the most.
Chen Zi Han as Su Quan
It was the hardest cast for me, I didn't know who to cast until Chen Zi Han pop up in my head. She can look gorgeous and she have already worked with Hu Ge in The Myth. I do think it's a good choice to cast Chen Zi Han as Su Quan.
Ady An as Fang Yi
Basing on her Lin Yue Ru in Chinese Paladin, I think she can play Fang Yi...Honestly, I don't really like Ady, and I don't like Fang Yi either...so yah, why not casting Ady as Fang Yi?!
Liu Shi Shi as Mu Jian Ping
I've thought about giving Liu Shi Shi a more important role but thinking back, I think she fits Mu Jian Ping more among the wives...Maybe because I'm used to her blue Long Kui...
Liu Yi Fei as Zeng Rou
It was simply because I didn't find an appropriate role for her...She can maybe be Mu Jian Ping too but I think Liu Shi Shi would be better....She looks too nice and innocent to be A Ke, Jian Ning and Fang Yi, too weak to be Shuang Er and too young to be Shu Quan...
