Characters in movies and series don’t always have to be played by the same actor, because if there’s an opening, Zendaya could be the perfect ‘Marilyna’. Can’t believe we show you what she would look like as Jenna Ortega.
Merlin Right now it’s a total Netflix success, with the series garnering recognition for its innovative storytelling, surpassing viewership levels of famous Stranger Things. One candidate for the role of Jenna Ortega turned out to be Zendaya, the protagonist of Euphoria, and being versatile, Marilyn would suit her perfectly.
Actors from outside the original series were cast for the Tim Burton creation. Merlin, Meryl Streep, Angelina Jolie, Antonio Banderas and others are already set for casting. Artificial intelligence brings us faces of people which would also be a good choice for artists.
Meryl Streep as Larissa Weems
social media
Original actress Larissa Weems, Nanka Maas or director of Nevermore Academy, is played by Gwendoline Christie in the Netflix series out Wednesday. Thanks to the technology and creativity of Internet users, Meryl Streep was conceived in this character.
Zooey Deschanel as Marilyn Thornhill
social media
In Merlina (Christina Ricci), Miss Merlin Thornhill is the caretaker of the Academia Nanka Maas or Nevermore Academy residence. Ricci’s involvement had to be thought through more than once so that the character of Marilyn (Jenna Ortega) did not lend itself to comparison with her 90s interpretation, and added to this, another choice for the role. Zooey Deschanel would have been.
Blake Lively as Valerie Kinbote
social media
We first meet Valerie Kinbot (Ricky Lindholm) as the therapist for Marilyn Adams in Jericho and the teenager’s other classmates in Nevermore. Had Blake Lively been shown in the character, the style of this doctor would have changed. Do you like Ryan Reynolds’ fellow starring Doctor Valerie better?
Angelina Jolie as Morticia Addams
social media
We know that Angelina Jolie will always look perfect in seduction mode, a persona that Morticia Addams lives with every day and all the time. The choice between Jolie and Catherine Zeta-Jones certainly must have been close, but the Chicago actress really doesn’t do bad at all.
Antonio Banderas as Homer Adams
social media
Homer Adams for Netflix’s Merlina is played by Puerto Rican Luis Guzmán, and despite the fact that Los Locos Adams fans had their reservations, the actor managed to convince. Despite this, it is not a sin to imagine Antonio Banderas in this character. Look through your eyes and dare to deny that Antonio and Catherine will not look super together again.
Gaten Matarazzo as Pericles Adams
social media
No one is more masochistic and arsonist than Merlina’s brother, Pericles Adams (Isaac Ordóñez). Dealing with a troubled sibling is certainly difficult, and with Pericles’ deceitfulness and Merlina’s (Jenna Ortega) character, no sane person would have the stomach to take care of this pair.
Elle Fanning as Enid Sinclair
social media
Enid Sinclair, starring Emma Myers, and unlike Marilyn, with whom she is very close, Sinclair is a young woman who loves life and colours. Another version with this character would be Elle Fanning, it would be nice to give her the benefit of the doubt.
Zendaya as Marilyn Adams
social media
Much of the success of the Netflix series, Merlina, is thanks to the personal stamp given by Jenna Ortega to her character. Merlina Addams is a brave and determined character who stands up for her ideals, something that Euphoria actress Zendaya would mesh perfectly with.
