Do you think Sebastian Stan could play a convincing Louis? Speaking for purely acting capabilities.

Y’know, I’ve seen him in the MCU movies and not a lot else, so when I googled him I was pleasantly surprised to find the gifs below.

But before we get to Stan, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so if he works for you, that’s totes fine! 

For meeeee, however… I’m not sure about him playing Louis bc my heart is pretty set on someone I would consider more sinewy, like Miles McMillan (BTW he paints, sometimes does amazing self-portraits! Check out @fuckyeahmilesmcmillan, there are nude pics of him there, too *u*), someone w/ a more narrow face shape w/ these defined cheekbones that are almost feminine:

^Lestat forced him to replace his decaying sweater w/ a jacket to go out but couldn’t get him to put on a t-shirt first.

Whoever they cast as Louis should bear some resemblance to whoever they cast as Nicolas, bc they are described as being similar in appearance (and attitude to some extent!), but I would imagine Louis as being slimmer and more delicate-looking, since he was in pretty bad physical shape when Lestat found him, a combination of malnourishment and excessive alcohol and picking fights w/ whoever would fight him ;A;

^Plus, his sass is a more gentlemanly brand, he has a dignified way of shooting Lestat down.

Stan is built more sturdy, his facial structure is a little wider, seems more like Nicolas in my mind. And I think he’s played non-straight characters before so I think he’d be willing to do that here, too ^_______^

Difficulty: I bet he is SO FRICKIN EXPENSIVE NOW like damn! ANYWAY LETS FANTASIZE…

^Late night drinking w/ Lestat in the tavern.

^When his mood has been significantly improved and he’s like, “Let me show you some new fingering I worked out…”

^When Lestat agrees to this offer so easily.

Nicki: Sebastian Stan? He’s got the hair, the brooding, the feral edge, but that smile will melt your… heart.

Y’know, I’ve seen him in the MCU movies and not a lot else, so when I googled him just now I was pleasantly surprised to find these… and yes, I definitely agree!
