Reeve Carney for Lestat de Lioncourt.

So, @sherlockspider​ suggested this. I don’t watch Penny Dreadful, and now it’s added to my watch list, bc of reasons. 

This Reeve Carney is good stuff. He appears to be the right age (Lestat was turned at 20 or 21 depending on your headcanon), he has the expressive eyes, the generous mouth, the jawline. Looks great in period costume. There are definite comparisons that can be drawn between Dorian and Lestat as characters. They both have this beautiful shell and a deep well of loneliness right underneath the surface, which translates into an insatiable lust for life’s pleasures and consuming other ppl.

 Did I mention he plays guitar? And sings? Rather than give u pics, here’s two vids I found: [X][X].

Ah… distracted… so yeah, he has this great dimple when he smiles:

Have another:

Hit the jump for moar. Cut for length.

And then, he is also hawt, much seduct (and how much better is it when brushes his hair back? i have never been a huge fan of the middle part on dudes) We’d need to do smtg major with his hair:

Have another, a little more aggressive:

Apparently there was a Brokeback moment in Penny Dreadful (another mention of it here) so he’s willing to do this thank goodness:

So I would screentest him.

^very Lestatuesque.
