Red Dead Redemption: Who Should Play Who In A Live Action Adaptation

21. Kieran Duffy - Ebon Moss-Bachrach

Red Dead Redemption 2 Jon Bernthal
Netflix

Poor Kieran...

The Character: Early on in the game's story, an ambush on Colm O'Driscoll's gang allows Arthur to cross paths with Kieran Duffy.

At first Kieran is taken back to camp to be interrogated (and then possibly executed) for information about Colm's operation. It becomes clear to the player and the later the gang that Kieran wasn't hadn't really bought into Colm's ideology and instead was just looking to survive the dangerous open world.

Kieran is unofficially inducted into the gang and proves his worth as a kind and devoted member of Dutch's little army, and it's a massive shame how things end for him.

The Actor: Ebon Moss-Bachrach might be a little old in comparison to the age of Kieran, but if we were to take age out of the equation, there's some physical resemblance between the two that would translate over brilliantly as Kieran.

Moss-Bachrach's acting ability is on point too, playing anxious in The Punisher, sleazy in Blow The Man Down, afraid in Come Out And Play and a little bit childish in Girls.

I overthink a lot of things. Will talk about pretty much anything for a great length of time. I'm obsessed with General Slocum from the 2002 Spider-Man film. I have questions that were never answered in that entire trilogy!
