Okay, so my boyfriend thinks Lestat would be Raoul (dashing hero, bit hot-headed) and Claudia should be Christine… only she’d sing Shirley Temple songs.
Claudia as Christine…There’s a scary, yet very fitting, thought.
Should we have Marius as the Phantom? Only he wouldn’t wear a mask – He’d refuse to hide all that beauty.
Alright, wait, in retrospect Claudia as Christine would be kick-ass. There wouldn’t be any of the “Oh, I think I’m in love with the Phantom,” quivering. She’d choose him, kick his ass, and make him her own. Claudia takes no prisoners.
It’s funny you should say that, because my boyfriend just made this photoshop of Louis as the phantom… and of course, Claudia has that moment in IWTV where she says that Louis had to live, rather than Lestat, because he’d be the more controllable of the two…
“… for years I hunted on the edge of the human herd, a hideous and crippled monster, who could strike down only the very young or infirm. In constant danger from my victims, I became the very antithesis of the romantic demon, bringing terror rather than rapture, resembling nothing so much as the old revenants of les Innocents in their filth and rags.
The wounds I’d suffered affected my very spirit, my capacity to reason. And what I saw in the mirror every time I dared to look further shriveled my soul.” – The Vampire Lestat
First songs I tried by Royal Blood, Come on Over, and Figure It Out, and I already agree with you! The voice is in the range I’d imagine for Lestat; as much as I headcanon that Lestat loves Bruce Springsteen I don’t think his voice would be as low as the Boss’s.
