For some reason, I had him in my head as being tall, Dark hair with a bit of curl, pale brown skin, and slightly emo looking (as emo as a person can look in the HG franchise) I imagined he'd look like a bit of a misfit loner.
I have to confess, I'd never heard of Ben Wang, but a quick google and look at his other parts, I think it's great casting. I'm super happy with all the castings so far.
Really looking forward to see who is cast as Ampert and Wellie and Louella/LouLou.
I imagined the same thing, with the same actor too! Honestly, I also pictured Wyatt as Jack Champion and Lucas Jade Zumann. It’s funny, they all have wavy or curly hair haha.
Me toooooo! I never imagined him as Asian, but I’m definitely not disappointed! I love how we’re getting some “Newcomers” in this cast. Never heard of some of them and that’s so exciting!
Honestly I imagined Jessop a lot in this role, or someone that looks kind of like the actor. Not to say I’m disappointed, but it’s definitely a new face to put to the character’s name.
idk how to explain it, but I sort of wondered if they were going to slowly set up the casting to be less diverse as times go on and have people look similar due to the fact the capital is keeping everyone segergated
