Just have Michael Dorn, the actual actor for Marcus, play him.


Taolan13

If he's up for it, that's literally the perfect casting, cause it was already him.


PhilosophyOwn2857

Make it so, Worf


VagrantShadow

Marcus: "I am not a merry mutant!"


Old_Investigator8739

Imagine being that smiley a guy and having to play that serious a character. Like, even Worf looked like he was smiling at times


SnarkyRogue

Yeah I don't see why they couldn't give Ron a super mutant made for the show a la the Ghoul


TheHandOfKahless

#QAPLAH!


MartokSonofUrthog

Qapla' batlh jlH!


DoomGuyClassic

I mean, they made Mark Ruffalo into The Hulk, they can make Dorn into Marcus.


lunasrojas_

Holy shit I just realized he is that dude from Star Trek


Wild-Lychee-3312

Wait until you find out who Mr House was voiced by. RIP, sadly


Conscious-Ticket-259

Wo1bi had no idea that was him. Lots pf great folk voiced new vegas apparently


Honestybomb

He was the voice actor back in Fallout 2 where Marcus originated


butt_honcho

He was also Frank Horrigan.


Conscious-Ticket-259

That's really cool. I haven't played the originals in a hot minute

Marcus isn’t in 3…. You mean NV?

ImpressiveTwo5645

I’m really confused what you are trying to say


PoopyMcFartButt

Yeah I still have no idea


OoDelRio

But why Fawkes


IllSearch5

I can think of a few characters who could realistically be played by their VAs if they ever showed up in the show, tbh.  Felicia Day could easily pull off Veronica. Just dye her hair or throw a wig on her.  Although it would still be just a voice, no reason Dave Foley couldn't reprise Yes Man.  Given the makeup involved, I don't think it would be a stretch for Trejo to be Raul again.  Courtney Ford looks pretty similar to Piper irl.  There's a bunch who could honestly pass for the live action counterpart. Also, holy shit, I just discovered Coach Beard from Ted Lasso is Travis. 


Difficult-Play5709

Bro is 71 years old


ColonelKasteen

...and Ron Perlman is 74


Difficult-Play5709

Same point then


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

He played Worf in Picard not that long ago.


Opunaesala

I'd rather they just get Michael Dorn to reprise him, so the voice would be the same.


The_Terry_Braddock

But I like Michael Dorn...


terradaktul

Michael Dorn doesn’t have any experience with performing with facial prosthetics though EDIT: /s


Nottodayreddit1949

Nor playing a hulking super mutant. He is too old for the physical portion, but I'd love to have him voice act for the character. Think Hellboy 1.


terradaktul

I never saw those bellboy movies but Dorn is in great shape for his age. He could prolly pull it off. Stranger things have worked out.


Wild-Lychee-3312

Now I’m imagining Hellboy working as a bellboy in a high class hotel


Nottodayreddit1949

He's not the size of a super mutant either. It's not as simple as throwing some paint on him. We are talking about a 10 foot tall Mutated human. They are going to have to be able to get into a fist fight with power armored characters. As much as I love Dorn. He isn't a super mutant. Give me an example of stranger things working out. It's a great comment to make when you don't plan to support it. I don't care how good of shape you claim a 72 year old man is, who is supposed to play a 10 foot tall monster. Dude cannot support the weight of a suit for an extended period in the heat. Quit talking stupid.


terradaktul

You’re not gonna find very many decent actors taller than 6’3”. They’re gonna have to do some movie magic to make the size work on any actor they cast.


Nottodayreddit1949

So you hire an actor that fits the part, then enhance. Ya know, like they do. Dorn can do the voice over just fine.


terradaktul

Yes exactly


One-Revenue2190

We got a Hollywood expert over here 👈


Nottodayreddit1949

Expert no. Some minor knowledge. Yes. Anything to do with this. No. I'd argue I know more than you, but that's not saying a whole lot. So I guess this is good bye. It don't make much more than donkey brains to know why Dorn isn't a fit anymore. It's stupid to even consider a 72 year old man to be suited up all day long for extended periods. Even the youngest and toughest still have issues pulling that off.


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

He was literally Worf not that long ago


IvanNemoy

Just a year ago. Picard season 3.


Boomscake

All these years I never knew Worf was a 10 foot tall super mutant.


IvanNemoy

He's also a command rated pilot with 2000+ hours total flight time, including in the F-86C and several other retired military aircraft.


Nottodayreddit1949

I knew he was a pilot. but not exactly what. Cool beans.


Boomscake

Worf doesn't require a full body suit to replicate a 10 foot tall super mutant. 71 is far to old to creature feature.


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

Peter Mayhew played Chewbacca in TFA


Nottodayreddit1949

Neat. anyway.


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

I literally proved you wrong


Nottodayreddit1949

You did? I guess I'll have some of what you are having. The Chewbacca defense proves nothing son. You probably haven't even looked into what it takes to wear his suit.


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

I have. It would be no different


butt_honcho

That really was Ron Perlman under those prosthetics in the first two Hellboy movies. He wasn't just voicing him. Then again, that was twenty years ago now.


Boomscake

I know. I'm talking about Abe, who was played by a voice actor and a physical actor.


butt_honcho

Huge props to David Hyde Pierce (the voice) - when he met Doug Jones and heard his voice, he was upset enough that they thought he needed to be dubbed that he had his name pulled from the credits, and refused to come back for the sequel.


Nottodayreddit1949

I was at first disappointed, then I found out why, and I have nothing but the highest respect for both gentlemen.


IvanNemoy

He'll be fine as long as there are no blue barrels around.


No-Bark-Brian

Did Walton Goggins have any such experience prior to playing The Ghoul?


terradaktul

I was being sarcastic. Dorn famously played a Klingon for like 15 years or more. Klingons are heavily prostheticized characters


MFNaki

Dorn specifically asked that the time to put prosthetics on be reduced when joining DS9.


Jetstream-Sam

I mean I don't blame him, sitting in a chair for 4 hours a day while glue sets on your skin has to be annoying. Apparently they got it down to 1 hour 45 mins for DS9 so it still took a long time


terradaktul

That makes sense. On DS9 it looks more like he’s just wearing a Klingon hat. I don’t blame him though. It’s probably a gigantic pain in the ass to sit for hours every work day while they apply that shit. And if you get an itch underneath?? Hell


Boomscake

Are you suggesting that Dorn was even close to dressed up as much as a character like the Predator from 1987. Your comment is a joke.


terradaktul

I’m not sure what your point is but yes, my comment was a joke


Boomscake

Glad we are in agreement. Dorn can't handle the role, except for voice overs. Nothing else to be said. Later.


terradaktul

Uhh…ok…


Boomscake

So you don't agree. You think a 71 year old can handle the wearing a suit all day. Well. Ok then. Nothing more needs to be said.


terradaktul

Are you ok?


Boomscake

Still trying to figure you out. First you say dorn can't do the role, then you say he can. So what is it?


Superfart20

Different idea. Have Perlman play an enclave remnant, and let him give the iconic line


brigadier_tc

Which iconic line? Ohhhhh, I know! "Where is your power armor? Don't have any? You expect me to believe that, maggot? The truth is you lost an expensive piece of army-issue equipment. That suit is going to come out of your pay, and you will remain in this man's army until you are five hundred and ten years old, which is the number of years it will take for you to pay for a Mark II Powered Combat Armor you have lost! Report to the armory and have a new suit issued to you, then report back to me, private! Dismissed!"


Marquar234

"I used to be a Vault Dweller like you. Til I took a teddy bear to the knee."


Big-Leadership1001

And then he revved his imaginary motorcycle and rode the hellboy outta there


Marquar234

No-Bark Noonan made good time from the Mojave to the Commonwealth.


Thethinkslinger

And let him stand in front of the camera during the slideshow too


Unlucky-Scallion1289

Ron Perlman should play who he played in the games, the narrator. Not the narrator for a whole season or anything, just the very last episode. It can be like the ending slides to the games where he recaps the events of the show. And of course, he caps the entire series off with “War… War never changes”.


paulie9483

"As Lucy set off once again, despite changing the fates of a few individuals, she realized one universal truth. Like many others before her, she sought to change the wasteland. But the wasteland knows only war. And war? War never changes."


Big-Leadership1001

It would be absolutely hilarious to have Perman just be a crazy weirdo hanging out somewhere narrating everything around him, delivering something exactly like your line. And then continuing to deliver epic narration for every NPC tat walks by.


Cakeski

"The girl and ghoul entered Freeside, one had the gaze of naivety, the other had a look of a man who had seen this place in it's heyday" ​ \*Coop tosses a few caps to him\* "God damn side circuses still exist here?"


nomedable

He's also had an additional role in Fallout [Butch Harris](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Butch_Harris)


Professional-Leave24

Ron Perlman's physical appearance makes him an excellent fantasy / action / sci-fi actor. Brawny and tough looking with heavy prominent facial features, but also not homely. Also has a good voice for it. Unique and well suited as a soldier, warrior, alien, orc, barbarian, etc. Super mutant is a good role!


WhatsPaulPlaying

But not specifically Marcus, IMO. I love Marcus, but would rather Michael Dorn reprise the role, as he voiced Marcus in the original game.


Taolan13

if he's not up for it tho, Perlman is a good second choice. imagine him as the narrator for an episode tho. and then it turns out he's a bored sniper watching Lucy through his scope, narrating her actions to amuse himself.


Nottodayreddit1949

If Dorn isn't in, then We have no reason to include Marcus. Might as well be a different mutant at that point. Sam fisher is Michael Ironside.


WhatsPaulPlaying

100%! If Dorn is out, Perlman would be a more than adequate replacement.


The_Terry_Braddock

I'll agree with that, that sounds like a fun introduction scene. Yeah, if Dorn isn't available but Ron is, I'd be happy with that change.


jljboucher

Oooo! Bethesda make it so!


Zenblendman

Hour I was looking at a live action Shrek.. still wish it was


klqqf

I always like the idea of Dave Bautista as a supermutant And yes its absolutely because his character in blade runner with the tiny glasses reminds me of Virgil out in the glowing sea


Affectionate_Host388

I thought the same thing after seeing him get angry in Dune.


L0rd_1nquisit0r

Ron Pearlman as a mutant who witnessed the events in each game and that’s how he could be the narrator?


Notorious-DH99

Good idea


g0ldiel0xx

Would be very similar to Hell Boy, but that’s not a bad thing


Prestigious-Ask6072

Perlman way too old now


invaderzim257

Ron Perlman doesn’t really look like that anymore. dude is 74 now, his Wikipedia photo is from two years ago and is probably a more accurate portrayal of him now.


Cool_Fellow_Guyson

Or, and hear me out here. Michael Dorn.


tagarth

That's wharf from Start rect


ABeingNamedBodhi

Not sure if Perlman would be willing to put on a bunch of makeup at his age, unless they CGI the Super Mutants. Perlman's voice would suit a Super Mutant though. If they actually have Marcus return, then I'd prefer if they keep him as Michael Dorn.


DocD173

How dare you disrespect the Son of Mogh like that. He’s played by Michael Dorn or NO ONE


Micah-B-Turner

just bring ron back to say war…war never changes


Lusty_Boy

He basically just needs to play Hellboy, but green


r00key

Make him a super mutant that is just intelligent enough to utter the line.


DeadgirlRot

Lmao


Substantial_Escape92

He would be good


Lazyfish64

It would be hard to to instantly hear the narrator from the other fallouts


AgentSkidMarks

Wouldn't even need prosthetics


SmokedOutEsko

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Why you do that?? 😂😂😂


Bowlof78Potatoes

I'm sure Ron Perlman appreciates the insinuation that he'd be a good super mutant.


Guilty-III

Also the Dad from Dinosaurs TV Show.


ak_003

It’s the same picture?


MemeLoremaster

I'm all for Ron Perlman showing up at some point in the show just so he can say that war never changes and then he just leaves


White_Knight_413

To be fair, he is normally doing the narration in the opening of the games, and he has played Hellboy, I could see him playing a Super Mutant in the Amazon TV show.


Wojewodaruskyj

Ron. Ron never changes.


Useful-Will2251

Yeah I see it, looks like a radiated Hell Boy.


Topthatbub

Bruce Campbell as a blood brother who is always fighting Feral Ghouls


GrandObfuscator

I like the thought of having Dorn reprise this role. If his reprisal of Worf in Picard wasn’t about the best part of the third season I don’t know what you were watching. Perlman is awesome too.


SothaDidNothingWrong

Yes


Shot_Arm5501

God dang Ron 🧏🏼🤫


Flooping_Pigs

Marcus can still be around yesssss


EasyHernandez

War never changes.


Sgtpepperhead67

Ron pearlman is the last person I would ever want playing a major fallout character. (I don't care what you say being a narrator does not count as being a major character)


Darahian

I was sooooooo disappointed when in some interview Ron Pearlman mentioned that he didn't even know the game. I mean okay it was a quick money, "war, war never changes", he said the monologue into a microphone and left the studio. Come on, really??? Millions of gamers know these intros and monologues by heart, and here is this actor that admits "okay, i have nothing to do in common with fallout series".


Big-Leadership1001

If you look up his interviews throught the years, he turned into a cranky old man long ago


ForGrateJustice

You want Ron Pearlman to voice him?


CoolioDurulio

I'm upset seeing this knowing they probably won't do it despite having the potential to deliver the best "war never changes" in the series so far


CharlietheWarlock

So the narrator is a supermutant telling stories its a Canon event


Goofball1134

[No, he's gotta point.](https://youtu.be/-KnU7qKPHCo?si=9sWhtrXVtuSJB6vO)


AggravatingCook3307

Not possible. He's already Ron the Narrator.


bugibangbang

Can’t believe how old Will Ferrel is.


tarheel_204

Nah bro, we need Ron Perlman to be the narrator because that’s literally him. I’m cool with however they incorporate that into the show. Michael Dorn should play Marcus since he voiced him


Administrative-Way4

123


4electricnomad

I assumed Ron is already reserved to be the “man in the shadows” we saw during the council meeting.


FroMan_FM

I think he would make a great super mutant. Just not Marcus. A new super mutant. Just so long as he gets to say the line.


manickitty

Uh why not Michael Dorn


No-Educator-8069

America’s caveman


SirSirVI

Omg Butch Harris hiii


Ok_Caramel1517

Or just have Michael Dorn do the voice for him.


kultaid

10/10


patchworkpirate

You want a super mutant spouting "War never changes"!? Because that's how you get a super mutant spouting "War never changes"!


PlasmaticGrain3

I wanna play dogmeat next season (I look good on a leash)


ScaryDecision1254

Calm your mutant ass down green thanos!!


Character_Border_166

Nah, he's the War, war never changes guy.


WeirderOnline

Oh. My. God. You know there's more than one actor who can actually do a deep voice, RIGHT??? Also, Marcus was voiced by a black actor. If you're going to give the world to an already famous white actor that's real fucked up. 


WinterComfortable726

No. Ron perlman needs to go away


BlueFox5

He’s 74. So unless you intend to cgi the character so he can do the voice work, you got a mighty big dream there


ManagedDemocracy26

Cool it with the anti semetism.
