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

19. Tilly Jackson - Taylor Russell

Red Dead Redemption 2 Jon Bernthal
Netflix

The Character: One of the youngest members of the Van Der Linde Gang, Tilly's contribution to the welfare of her fellow outlaws comes from providing tips on lucrative places to rob.

When Tilly's past comes back to her, she is abducted and held captive, with Arthur and Miss Grimshaw setting out to rescue her. When the rescue mission is complete, Tilly shows an interesting character moment when she insists on sparing her captor, as opposed to gutting him like a fish.

Tilly is not only one of the few characters to make it out of RDR2 alive, but have a genuinely happy ending. That's all we can ask for with her character.

The Actor: Taylor Russell might have a few films under her belt, but what she's probably best known right now for is the Netflix re-imagining of the sci-fi series Lost In Space, in which Russell played the eldest Robinson daughter, Judy.

Russell is superb in the role, and arguably one of the best cast members on the show. A character as headstrong and empathetic as Judy would transition across brilliantly to the young Miss Jackson.

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!
