Fan-Casting The Legend Of Zelda TV Show
9. Skull Kid - Isaac Hempstead Wright
Continuing the trend of Majora's Mask characters who would carve out a perfect place in a live-action series comes the troubled and unfortunate Skull Kid.
This lonely child ended up seeing himself become the villain as a result of the game's titular mask and went on to become iconic within the franchise. His tragic story of loneliness and magical manipulation would be a highlight for any live-action Zelda property.
When casting this role, it would make sense to look for someone who can reflect youth but bring a couple of years of experience. Isaac Hampstead Wright seems to be the right choice for the part, as his time in Game of Thrones proves he's at home with fantasy, and he can toe the line between empathetic and mysterious perfectly.
In regards to looks, there isn't too much to compare here, as the character's creature like appearance isn't something Hampstead-Wright could reflect without VFX. But, his lean and skinny frame would be a tremendous physical start for the character.
Plus, an upbeat, energetic physical performance would likely interest him, as his most iconic role was known for dramatic stillness, meaning this would be a nice change for the actor.
