GTA V: Casting The Main Characters In A Hypothetical Movie Version

Nicolas Cage As Trevor Phillips

Cagetrevor Trevor is GTA V's most deranged character. Absolutely bonkers. Insane. Bat sh*t crazy. Insert your own adjective here. This role wouldn't be for the faint of heart. The person playing Trevor needs to be able to inhabit the mind of crazy, and who better than Nicholas Cage. Sure, ol' Nic has done some absolutely dreadful films in the past (Ghost Rider, Wicker Man, you're up), but for every bomb, he's done something so insane and nutty you can't help but love his performances in them. His small role in Kick-Ass springs to mind here. The man is as mad as a box of frogs high on LSD. He named his son Kal-El for crying out loud. He may not have too much of a physical resemblance to Trevor, but give the man a comb over and some tattoo's, get him to dial up the crazy and ladies and gentlemen, we have our Trevor. FOR A DIFFERENT TAKE: Steve Buscemi. He's shown he can play a gangster with his brilliantly nuanced turn in Boardwalk Empire, he would be able to show a different side of Trevor and has the physical appearance to boot. So that's my take on who I would have playing the three main characters in a GTA film. Who would you pick? Let me know in the comments.
