I really want Timothée Chalamet to play Armand

I have been seeing that around a lot lately! I had a post about him re: casting about 3 weeks ago, so check that out for more thoughts on that.

I wonder if he’s read VC or would have interest in being involved with it? I feel like he would!

Not to burst your bubble too hard, and I am sorry to do so at all, but it feels like a good time to mention that some fans have commented that he’s too tall, apparently! He’s 6 feet tall. In

TVA Armand says: “I was perhaps seventeen years old when Marius made me into a vampire. I had stopped growing by that time. For a year, I’d been five feet six inches.Maybe they could do some camera tricks to make him look shorter, but idk, might be easier to just cast someone shorter 😛 It sucks for height to be a dealbreaker, but I respect the fact that some fans really want a canon-compliant Armand in this adaptation.

Also, if Timothee wins an Oscar for CMBYN, he’s going to be extremely expensive ;A; He’s probably already in enormous demand just for the nomination. So he’d have to WANT to be part of this, probably.

Apparently he’s in pre-production on a new film, and VC casting is a year off, but maybe he’ll be available by then?
