- Red Dead Redemption is one of the few critically-acclaimed video game franchises without a live-action TV Show adaptation in the works, but if Rockstar Games were to actually agree to one in 2023, who could possibly play the iconic characters from the series such as John Marston and Dutch Van Der Linde?
Well, this video offers up some realistic casting suggestions for all the main characters featured in the much-beloved Red Dead Redemption video game, first released in 2010.

So what do you reckon, who would be your top pick to play John and Dutch? 🎤
Sam Elliot IS Landon Ricketts! P.S I really hope HBO, Paramount or AMC pick Red Dead Redemption up for a series order, especially after the success of TLOU. I'd love a follow up video-very well researched so thank you so much for this! 👏
John Josh Brolin dutch Daniel Day-Lewis or Ian McShane
I think Logan Marshal green should play John. As for Dutch I was originally thinking Jeff Bridges since he play in several western films and can play a villain role but he is old so idk.
@@wolfknightstudios5021I feel like an rdr live action would be soooo cool, the only problem I have is some of the characters, (dutch and John for example) have voices that are hard to mimic, so I feel like it wouldn't feel as legit if John didn't sound like John nor dutch like dutch
If they ever make this into a TV show, I hope the first season covers RDR2. Then for the second season go into RDR1. Maybe even do a pilot for season 1 featuring Red Harlow and tying his story into Arthur Morgan’s story.
That’ll be really cool! If red harlow does appear there should be a stand off scene between Red, John and another character a reference and tribute to The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
What I think would be cool as that every single chapter is its own season. So we can get like 10 1 hour episodes in one season
Honestly RDR2 has such a long story if they really wanted to they can make a season 1 Chapters 1-2 and Season 2 Chapters 3-4 and Season 3 chapters 5-prologue.
Then from there have what 2-3 more seasons to cover RDR1
I hope the first season actually covers what happens before RDR2
The pilot episode should cover the blackwater boat heist.
Jon hamm as Dutch was such a clutch choice. Good video
This is the most professional TH-cam video I've ever seen. This was really made by an individual? Anyway, great video. I've never played the game. Maybe I need to. Did they make it for PS2? :)
@@r.w.655 ps3
Jeffrey Dean Morgan would've been a better Dutch
I could picture some changes made. Like when Arthur takes Jack fishing, we don’t see their full conversation. Instead we see Abigail overlooking them from Horseshoe and has a conversation with Hosea about John, then Hosea goes over to Dutch discussing their next move. It then cuts to Jack making the necklace for Abigail before the Pinkertons confront Arthur.
Towards the end of the show, after Jack kills Agent Ross, Jack looks at the gun, whom had belonged to John, sets it on the ground, and rides back off as dawn emerges. He then flashes back to fishing with Arthur, and we get to see the full conversation as Arthur explains the meaning of life and what Jack should do with his as he gets older instead of being like him. All of this as Deadman’s Gun plays.
Edit: And maybe in the final season, we get to see what happened in the events of Chapter 6 and the Epilogue we didn’t see. In the beginning of the first episode of the epilogue season, we see where John left off after he was wounded during the train robbery.
In the second episode, we see where Tilly goes and what Sadie does in her after getting Abigail to safety, her early life as a bounty hunter and at the end she finds out rumors of John Marston’s ruckus up in Strawberry.
In the third episode, we see where Charles left off before being found by John and Uncle at the end.
The rest of the season plays out like the rest of the show, some parts of episodes take place before others though so it doesn’t get all over the place.
But the second to last episode will end with John, Sadie, Micah, and Dutch during their standoff with “Now John what were you saying?”
The final episode of that season will show what happened to Dutch after Arthur died, and how he caught up with Micah. We also see Ross show up and examine Arthur’s body. Then in the middle is where Micah is defeated finally, and the ending having Sadie and Charles leave as the Pinkerton’s find out about John via Micah’s investigation.
IMO a Red Dead Redemption series make more sense starting with RDR2 story and than going to RDR1 story.
*then
I would go with Norman Reedus for John. Today, prosthetic make-up can make him look younger. Did you ever watch "Lost"? They made Terry O'Quinn (aged 60s) look mid-40s for flashbacks and it looked GREAT. For RDR2, Roger Clark could still be Arthur.
This has almost everything for a superb storyline
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the next video. This was so entertaining and insightful and obviously well-researched.
We need a RDR2 casting video now
Logan Marshall-Green has great in Damnation. As an American it pains me to hear Damnation called a Netflix series since it was a USA network original and an underrated one at that, but I get that 90% of viewers probably watched on Netflix.
You are on point with this assessment.
I was sad when I learned Damnation would not return.
Extremely underrated.
Holy hell Hartnett looks exactly like Arthur, doesn’t have his demeanour and sounds nothing like him but they have the same facial structure it’s so uncanny
really good picks!
Wonderful list. I'd love to see you tackle Red Dead Redemption 2 because I found the characters to be far more interesting in that game. Particularly Arthur and I'd love to know who you'd pick to play him.
oh my god, sam elliot as landon rickets is such a good casting!!!
I really appreciate you keeping to these rules that I see are a problem with most other people's fan cast, especially the age problem. Lots of great actors who would be perfect 10-20 years ago. But especially if casting for RDR2, a lot of the gang are much younger than most of the popular first thought casting choices. You really pulled out some great selections that I'd be thrilled to see
for RDR2 i won't accept anyone else other than Ben Foster as Micah.
Same. The only other actor I've ever seen suggested that I would even HUMOR the casting of is Sam Rockwell. But I'd still be pissed it wasn't Foster lol
You should definitely do a fan cast of RDR 2 and also Red Dead Revolver!
Great stuff.
They'd need to do Red Dead Redemption 2 first... as that is the prequel technically. Also, it would be good to give some of the lesser characters in RDR more screen time in RDR 2 first to show off what happened to the gang and what caused them to split.
So Norman Reedus is 30 years older than JM is supposed to be.
Karl Urban as John Marston
shoot in 35mm for this should be a no brainer
Sam Rockwell for Micah Bell.
I don't think entertainment companies understand how much money they could make investing in this franchise
For John I’d go with Taylor Kitsche or whatever. John Carter essentially.
For the Cast of Dutch Van Der Linde in Red Dead Redemption I have 2 options
1. Jeremy Sisto you may recognize him from the Tv series the FBI
2. Liev Schreiber you may recognize him from the Tv series Ray Donovan
Sisto was also on "Law & Order" final seasons.
Jeffery Dean Morgan hands down
I want to see a Red Dead Redemption 2 one
Very curious to see who you think would play a Arthur, Micah anf Sadie.
excellent
For the Cast of Abigail Marston I have 2 options
1. Rose Leslie you may recognize her as Ygritte from game of Thrones and she the wife of Kit Harington
2. Deborah Ann Woll you may recognize her as Jessica Hamby from tv series True Blood
I’d cast Faith Hill and Tim McGraw as John and Abigail. They were both in the miniseries 1883 and they’d be absolutely PERFECT as those two.
For the Cast of John Marston in Red Dead Redemption I have 2 options
1. Kit Harington you may recognize him as Jon Snow from Game of Thrones
2. Luke Grimes you may recognize him as Kayce Dutton from Yellowstone
Geno Segers who played Chayton Littlestone in banshee as Charles Smith
Perfect ❤❤❤
So I've been thinking about actor's for rdr Also, I was thinking....
Colm O'Driscoll: Liam neeson
Hosea: Harrison Ford
Landon Rickets: Clint Eastwood
Leopold Strauss: Mads Mikkelson
Lenny: Kevin Hart
Charles: Dwayne Johnson
Sadie Adler: Kelly Riley
Dutch: Tom Selleck
Arthur Morgan: Bradley Cooper
John: Keanu Reeves
I would love to see you cast rdr 2❤🔥🔥🔥
I think Vanessa Kirby would be great as Sadie Adler
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as John potentially
Rip Taylor would have been good as Nigel west
Another candidate for Seth Collin’s:
Pete Davidson
If a red dead redemption show appears they should include the strangers and freaks missions.
I would definitely love to see a Red Dead Redemption series as it'll work better rather than cutting so much stuff and cramming everything into a 2 hour+ movie
Start off with the events of RDR2 then lead into Red Dead Redemption 1.
I think the team behind Yellowstone would be a good choice to adapt the games.
Holy shit I've said that exact thing about John Marston for the cast
After playing this game I really want a tv series out of it, and dutch looks like a perfect casting to me
I think Norman reedus would fit good for John, he’s also perfect enough to fit his character version as him, even his body is also big and same enough.
In my opinion, you can't do a Red Dead Redemption TV Series without starting with RDR2. Arthur Morgan's story needs to be seen by as many people as possible.
Afinal a história de Rdr2 vem antes de Rdr1
I think the beginning of the series should be about Dutch and Hosea, then Arthur Morgan and at the end John Marston
@@WrestleLuxury I feel like flashbacks can cover that stuff honestly
If they make a red dead tv series they have to do rdr2 as it’s own series first and then have a sequel series with John
I would like to see the live action
Stephen Root as west dickens
And Keith Carradine as Landon Ricketts
I'm not against the casting of Jon Hamm, but I do think that there has to be a more fitting actor for the role of Dutch.
Id like a movie that tells the blackwater heist
I think if they did do this they should start with red dead two then go in to johns story
Tom waits as uncle!!! Pleaaase do this
For some reason I mistakenly thought Keith Carradine was the voice of Marshal Leigh Johnson. This leads me to believe that he'd be a great choice for the role. Unfortunately, Sam Neil is ill and I think he might be done acting altogether.
Who would you have an Arthur ?
Taylor kitsch as John Marston
I would cast myself as Seth Briars
I would say David Harbour as Arthur Morgan. And this is just me but I think Joaquin Phoenix would make a great Dutch.
Hear me out. Phoenix already played a broken man on the verge of losing his mind and went on a rampage in Joker. I think it could work.
As for John Marston, I have no idea
I thought James Franco for John but he’s getting old as well now
John Marston should be Tim Oliphant
Logan Marshall looks more like Micah
I'm making my own series from the story on my channel. I have part 1 and part 5 which is the end but I will take them down and re-edit to make them look better and smoother transitions with the editing. Please check it if you are a RDR fan. Best story and game for me.
I mean they would have to sound like them
considering the state of live actions...theyd probably gender swap and race swap a bunch of these characters for no reason at all
where the hell is arthur??
He’s talking about RDR 1. Arthur wasn’t in that game.
@@Grave_Digger606 oh shit i didnt realize 😆 thanks brother
Reported for hate speech.
Arthur Morgan?
Ryan Hurst as Bill would be awesome! Loved him in SOA and TWD
Just go along with the voice actors, everyone else won't fit
keanu reeves as john??
My cast :
John = Norman Reedus
Bonnie = Charlize Theron
Edgar = Andy Serkis
Bill = David Harbour
Javier = Johnny Depp
Nigel = Toby Jones
Landon = Demian Bichir
Seth = Chris Pratt
Abrahams = Diego Luna
Abigail = Angelina Jolie
Uncle = John C. Relly
Dutch = Jeffrey Dean Morgan
Jack = Joe Cole
Idc! They just need to make the show! Any one would be better cast than hbo’s Ellie
This is a fun idea, but since GTA and RDR are merely video game homages to hundreds of different crime/ western movies., the TV series would just feel like a rip off of every western movie ever and thus only be inferior to those original movies. At least when it's a video game, YOU are in the story. YOU are Arthur Morgan. As a show, you would be passively watching John/ Arthur's stories play out under the limitations of TV budget/ schedule... and every Red Dead fan would hate the series more than they hate Red Dead Online.
Brad Pitt - Arthur Morgan
Keanu Reeves - John Marston
Ngl all the voice actors could easily play them all
Don't know if you'd get quality acting out of them though.
@JustWesterns 🤔🤔
Red Harlow --> Scott Eastwood
