Casting The Perfect Gears Of War Film

From Halo's Sergeant Johnson to Call of Duty's Captain Price, behind ever action hero is a cigar-chomping veteran.

Hoffman acts almost as a father figure to Marcus despite the two's opposing outlooks on the established COG. Marcus and Hoffman share an estranged relationship that is full of past grievances but also of mutual respect.

As the typical drill sergeant role model, Hoffman deserves an actor with just as much of a veteran status as the character himself. Several of the action hero greats such as Schwarzenegger and Stalone have been thrown around but Dolph Lundgren has the added assertive factor that sets him apart from the rest.

While Hoffman is a hero in his own right, he is also the figurehead for a corrupt and warmongering government. Lundgren's presence on the screen would depict Hoffman as a character to be respected and feared. Some Hollywood legends are too iconic as the standard "good guy" but Lundgren exudes the aura a man not to be messed with.
