Who would you cast in the following roles:

Don Corleone
Michael Corleone
Santino Corleone
Fredo Corleone
:patrice:

I would personally say:

Don: Robert De Niro

Michael: Michael Fassbender

Santino: Tom Hardy

Fredo: Justin Chatwin

The only problem is, Michael is supposed to be the youngest brother and this would definitely change the dynamics of the original but I just can't think of any big name actor who could possibly do the role justice:patrice:



Who I think Hollywood would probably cast

Don Corleone: Bryan Cranston
Michael: Channing Tatum:troll:

Santino: Michael B Jordan (adopted brother:troll:)

Fredo: Aaron Paul

interesting how these fukers dont look alike

Nah, I highly doubt they do a remake (I choosing to believe they won't despite hollywood's track record). If anything they would do like creed and make it be a spinoff/sequel/remake.

Don Corleone would be impossible to cast.ANYONE attempting would just be digging their own grave.Smh.
I actually think De Niro would be good. It'd be cool too since he was in GF2.

Oscar Isaac would be a good Michael. When I first saw the thread I thought that would probably be the toughest role to fill modern day. I also agree with Fassbender as Hagen like a poster said a few posts back.

THIS. RIGHT. HERE. The Godfather is timeless and perfect the way it is. Knowing Hollywood though a remake will be made. :scust:
Timelessness will never stop Hollywood. They know they will get millions off the name alone. Its all about the money.

They'd do an all female cast with Melissa McCarthy playing Don Corleone :russ:
:russ:

Now this is actually something Hollywood would do nowadays. A comedy female remake of The GodFather. :deadmanny:

Realistically that movie made today would be barely recognizable. There's no mob family resembling anything like the Corleones. RICO would've had Vito in prison for life when Sonny was still a kid.

The Godfather Trilogy was meant to be played by character actors from the era it was written in (Pacino, Brando, Robert Duvall, James Caan Talia Shire)..shyt, they just don't make mob movies/period pieces like this and Once Upon Time In America no more :salute:

Collider is reporting that Paramount wants to go 'more diverse' with the main cast.

According to producer, "anyone can be a corleone"
