Paul Robinson's latest update for Ghosts of War: Retribution

Jan 21, 2016

So earlier today I was asked by Cara Weston (if you haven't checked out her book, you should...--->;;;;;;;;;;;;; She Is The End ) if I had some idea of who would play the characters in Ghosts of War if it was turned into a movie or TV show. The answer is yes...yes I do.

So here we are, the main characters of Ghosts of War (and a few supporting ones) if it were to become a watchable thing (like...maybe a 10 episode Netflix series...yeah...that sounds nice.)


A few fun facts: 

  • Jeffrey Dean Morgan was originally Cole way back in the beginning, until I decided he needed to be younger. 
  • I may or may not have written Whil T'Qar specifically for Wil Wheaton... 
  • I only 'cast' Gregor, Tobias and Kira in the last 6 months, and now I can't see anyone else being them. 
  • Actually that's a lie, I recast Gregor, he was originally Anton Yelchin, but then JJ's Star Trek's happened and it felt a bit on the nose.
  • The Oren casting will be obscure for most everyone, but guys, trust me...lol.
  • You might have noticed that Whil, Martiss and Sharma are all new. I haven't yet formally introduced them but rest assured they have key parts to play in this book and the next two as well.


Until next time...
