No.
Furthermore, No.
Addendum: No.
OT, I do like Gerard Butler alot, but I don't think I could take him seriously in a Commander Shepard role. Christian Bale... eh. Maybe. Probably not though. I'd rather see some no-name guy get it who just happens to fit the description and doesn't have a typecast yet. It's hard for me to take anyone who's been typecast seriously.
Which, by the way, is why I refuse to accept Sean William Scott.
I say that they shouldn't pick to character at all, and give up on making a movie altogether, mostly because I believe the movie will just waste the original material and dumb it down for more mainstream audiences (i.e. large explosions and sex scenes replacing Thane quoting Thomas Hobbes, or Sovereign being voiced by Hugo Weaving *shivers*). Still, I have hope that it could be entertaining. For Shepherd I kind of want them to go with a woman, it might help it break away from the standard action movie cliches. For an actress, I can't remember her real name but Sierra from Dollhouse had this really great confidence about her.
But I still have one crazy idea, hear me out: Helen Mirren. Mostly because no one would see it coming...oh wait, she's already gone badass in RED, nevermind then.
Oh my, too much Top Gear...

If Gambon's in the role, he must crash his ship into a mass relay and then have Admiral Clarkson call him out on it.PurpleSky said:

I like the way you think. "Evil Dead 4 (or whatever they're on now): Robo-Deadites in Space". We all know the husks are meant to play that angle anyway.Blindswordmaster said:
christian bale would just do his stupid clint eastwood voice like in batman.
I'd go for Robert Downey Jnr. but he's a bit too old now, instead I'll go for the guy from avatar. Sam Worthington?

To be fair, the Shepard in the game looked like these guys, so it's fitting.Raving Insomniac said:The idea of a woman saving the galaxy is unsettling to some people your right. Something i'd personally like to see but predictably the movie will have the a male paragon shepard because nobody likes a renegade. I reckon it would be someone like Gerad Butler. Bruce Willis would have been good but he is too old now.Erick.S said:I think that a female Commander Shepard in a movie would be ground-breaking... so it won't happen. One of those two generic handsome buffs mentioned here (Christian Bale, Gerrard Butler) would probably be a good choice for increasing sales, though.
Heck, they might even be able to deliver half the lines in a convincing manner
I would love to see it be a woman though, but if a big studio would put a female protagonist, the movie would surely focus on how 'sexy' she is first, which in my opinion dilutes the character ("saving the galaxy is hard work, so I never forget three hours of hair treatment every morning, two layers of makeup to hide all those laser scars, and a whiff of 'solar-flare' antiperspirant") so... maybe it's better to have the male version.
Now I'm thinking that someone should make a machinima of this commercial

I see what you did thereBrad Shepard said:
Ot: they based at least the standard male shepard off some model. If he could act at all he could do it.
It depends on whether Shepard's a paragon or not. Think about it: Christian Bale would be a pretty good renegade. For paragon? Uh, actually... That dude from Avatar, Worthington or whatever his name was.
Ooh,ooh,I know.Jennifer Hale....Yes,I am saying that we should use the woman that voiced the character to play it in the live-action movie.Even if I am opposed to a Mass Effect movie centering around Commander Shepard.I am also opposed a live-action Mass Effect movie.How about we keep it animated?
Personally, I don't care who it is as long as it's someone good. Christian Bale sounds pretty good for it so I'll go with him.
