At Least One of the Choices in this Genderswapped LotR Recasting Will Make Your Jaw Drop

[slideshow id=638]

I’ll just start with the one that dropped my jaw. Like all fan recasts, there are some here that you’re probably going to disagree with (personally, I think it’s imperative to pick actresses for Faramir and Boromir that look like they could be siblings in order to recreate the uncanny family resemblance between Sean Bean and David Wenham), but we’ve put the ones that we found most interesting in a gallery.

And seriously, Katee Sackoff as Samwise the Brave? I am already crying tears. You can find the rest of this fancast on LiveJournal.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
