Pirates of...Elsinore?
|
||
Role | Played by | Why? |
Hamlet | Jack | Method to the madness! 'Nuff said. ;) Plus it's the lead role, and do you think Captain Jack Sparrow would let anyone else star? |
Laertes | Will | Pretty straight-laced, toe-the-mark kind of guy until stuff really hits the fan, then he's not afraid to stand up for his loved ones |
Ophelia | Elizabeth | Yes, that would make her and Will siblings but I ship Jack/Elizabeth anyway, so nyah. Heehee... Plus Jack could save her from drowning again! Both ladies may have angst over their love lives, but Elizabeth is far from the moping, delicate, passive lady that Ophelia is. |
Polonius | Gov. Swann | Older, slightly doddering but well-intentioned father figure. |
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern | Pintel and Ragetti | Kind of a no-brainer, there. ;) |
Gertrude | Tia Dalma | Well, Tia's way more intelligent and feisty than Gertrude, but she's got the fickle heart thing going on. |
Hamlet Sr. | Davy Jones | Supernatural? Check. Broken heart? Check. |
Claudius | Barbossa | Although there was that one promo poster for the first movie that shows him holding a skull that looks like a major Hamlet reference. ;) |
