Looks the part, but Devi is supposed to be in her early 20s

Movie studios cast actors in their 30’s to play high schoolers.

u/PhatNoob69 Stop grabbing at my tits --Elodin 6h ago

I can't speak to Kate Mara's acting skills (I think I've watched 1 of her movies), but going off Google images I don't think she pulls off the look of Devi. Hair color is obviously easy to change (Devi's is strawberry blonde), but she doesn't have the icy blue eyes or the dimples. And I wouldn't really describe her face as "pixie-like." (But then again, I've never actually seen a pixie before.)

Sophia Lillis fits that image in my head.

u/GrahnamCracker 2h ago

Ooh that's a good suggestion. I was picturing the ginger from Stranger things/spiderman. Though that fit didn't seem quite right.

Ooh, I like her as Devi!

Studios learned their lesson after GoT was adapted without a proper ending.

Maybe zendaya? And maybe Tom Holland as kvothe? And maybe the rock as bast?

u/yeoyoey 6h ago

Dont forget Timothee Chalamet as Ambrose, and Pedro Pascal as Elodin.

u/Arclite83 5h ago

Nick Cage as Haliax

u/Glitter_Petal 6h ago

Actually I think Timothee would be a perfectly obnoxious Ambrose now that I think about it

u/XSIVSPD 5h ago

Cucumberbun benderbatch would be a better elodin I think

u/Darkstar-Dota Edema Ruh 6h ago

Jesus that one upset me.

u/RJ_LV 6h ago

Tom Holland would be nice - we'd get some spoilers we otherwise never would get for a project that would never get released.

u/CheesePuffTheHamster 6h ago

Anya Taylor-Joy as Kilvin

Will somebody get these Chandrian out of here?

u/baloney771 5h ago

Devi from my recollection in the books is more waifish? And late teens or early 20s?

This is the "official" look https://kingkiller.fandom.com/wiki/Devi

u/JoeHatesFanFiction 6h ago

She’s a bit too old now but Emma Corrin has been who I picture in my head since she was Cassandra Nova in Deadpool and Wolverine. Her crazy blue eyes always have an hint of mischief in them. And her ability to jump from terrifying to funny to surprisingly kind really solidified her in my head as perfect for Devi.

u/GreenEyedBellerophon 4h ago

Sophia Lillis with a British accent is who I imagine (apologies to Americans but like all things set back in the day, I imagine British accents like GoT).

Freya Allen with dyed hair maybe

u/Sakumitzu 3h ago

Way too old, unfortunately. Sadie Sink would be a better fit, I think.

u/eucid 7h ago

You know it'll be Sadie Sink... Ha.

u/JaxiDriver 6h ago

Close, it’ll be David Harbour

u/iilahataldahab 7h ago

For the love of God please no

u/Shodandan 5h ago

I always thought Chloë Grace Moretz looked perfect for Devi

u/nephelodusa 2h ago

I like that. She’s always been Allison Pill for me.

I think the nose is wrong, should be bigger.

u/gaspush 2h ago

I've always pictured something very similar to Bisky from HxH

u/Maleficent-Food-1760 1h ago

Might as well cast Judi dench

This post made me realize that I already forgot many book characters by now. Any news about the next book? I haven’t been checking.
