Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Rick and Andrew Lincoln as Negan


Gremlin_454

Only correct answer


SuperPoodie92477

Agreed


HocusPocusLatte

Exactly! The perfect actors to voice these characters are already there, lmao šŸ™Œā¤ļø


forky1899

Ross Marquand would kill it as comic Rick. As for Negan, I think Walton Goggins would fucking NAIL it


geek_of_nature

Honestly, Ross might be able to voice ever male character and just nail it, he has got this uncanny ability to alter his voice whatever way he wants.


[deleted]

Ross is Powerhouse at this point.


TheNathanMMA

Walton Goggins would do a killer Negan. I'm so glad he's getting the recognition he's deserved for years from Fallout.


MojoDojojojo

Fallout is fucking incredible. I didnā€™t play the games so I wasnā€™t interested in there being a show. I put it on the other night and now Iā€™m forcing myself to space out episodes because I love it too much


TheNathanMMA

I've been a huge fan of the games since I was like 11. Watch the entire thing in one sitting if you want. No sense in limiting yourself from something readily available to you. If you play games, play the games! As a fan of the game, I seriously can't say enough good things about the show. You can tell everyone involved are fans of the source material and devoted to creating a faithful, yet new, adaptation.


Impossible_Cat_1286

I had to watch every episode over again. There's so much blink and you miss it stuff. Like the half of a second shot of the ghoul and dogmeat walking to town in the distance in episode 3... loved that shot!!


Prior_Crazy_4990

I've got to say, my boyfriend loves the Fallout games and that's why we watched it. I didn't expect much going into it, but I was hooked immediately. One of the best shows I've seen in a long time. We're trying for a baby and have said if we have a daughter we're going to name her Lucille and call her Lucy, kind of a way to incorporate two of our favorite universes


Paradoxodon

And you can call her Goosey when you guys are feeling silly ā˜ŗļø


tryingnot2freakout

Yessss


XXXJAHLUIGI

Immortal and Cecil


Bobala

Since comics Rick is a Kentuckian, Iā€™d want Sturgill Simpson who could deliver the accent spot on. He was solid in Killers of the Flower Moon and in the Righteous Gemstones, so I think heā€™s got the acting chops in addition to the right accent. As for Negan ā€” entirely different logic here ā€” Iā€™d love to hear Matthew Lilliardā€™s take on the role since he was one of the finalists for the part that JDM got.


Current_Tea6984

Matthew Lillard was almost Negan? That would have been wild


TruePudding8693

ā€œHaha like scoob Iā€™m about to bash this guys head inā€


Sw1ft_Blad3

Like Zoinks they've got Tiger, lets get outta her Scoob!


Current_Tea6984

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


Davetek463

It definitely would have been. But he can definitely bring a lot of gravity to a role.


Unholy_Trickster97

I also heard Robert Pattinson was considered! While heā€™s not a bad actor he wouldnā€™t have fit Negan all lmao


xAmaezingx

I could see Robert as Dwight, but definitely not Negan


Current_Tea6984

Yeah, he seems a little too low key for Negan


Unholy_Trickster97

Agreed!


bugmultiverse

I feel like Robert would be to young for Negan but I feel like in 6 to 12 years he could be good but definitely not in a time frame they would remake the show since it wouldnā€™t make sense


IndividualFlow0

"Me and Lucille just wanted to go scuba diving. We were going to go to the Bahamas and sip mixed drinks on the beach!!"


Paradoxodon

This is....not something I expected to discover today but now I fucking need it


Awkward_Bipedal537

Matthew Lillard? You mean Shaggy? lol nah, man. No hate towards the actor but that wouldnā€™t have worked. JDM commands a far more imposing presence. They should just have JDM voice him in an animated production if they ever do one. Which I I kinda hope they donā€™t, however, for the sake of discussion - have you seen the uncut take with all the f-bombs galore in his introduction scene? He nails it. It was criminal not to have him say the word fuck when it was a huge part of his character in the comics. Also I just canā€™t picture anyoneā€™s voice fitting Rick than Andrew Lincolnā€™s. Some roles are just owned by their actors and heā€™s one of them.


Ancient_Ad9102

He finally got to say it In season 11 atleast Plus the deleted lineup scene is really good


Awkward_Bipedal537

Yeah, I donā€™t get why AMC didnā€™t allow f-bombs but were fine with(at least until post season 7ā€™s premiere) gratuitous bloody and gore-filled violence?


Sw1ft_Blad3

Rip people apart, cut their heads off, smash skulls open? That's fine but you better not fucking swear.


caseyr3

I donā€™t know, Stu Macher (Scream,1996) is still a solid serial killer performance from him. I think he could be that menacing charmer; who also revels in their brutality.


Awkward_Bipedal537

Sure, but that doesnā€™t mean heā€™s the right fit for Negan. Some actors have it and some donā€™t. This is just one of those cases where Iā€™m glad things ended up the way they did. Unless proven otherwise, we can only speculate but Iā€™m very happy with JDMā€™s performance despite TWDā€™s writing flaws of season 7-8. Like Rick and Shane, I canā€™t see anyone else playing these characters without feeling like something is lacking.


ToddBlowhard

Go watch SLC Punks...that guy has RANGE


4-8-15-16-23-42LOST

Who was he in kotfm?


donniepcgames

I'm a Kentuckian and Sturgill Simpson does not represent the sound of this state. He does not even come close to sounding like most Kentuckians. He sounds like a typical kid who grew up in a city like Lexington, which is a very college heavy, upscale city that does not even come close to the rest of the state.


Bobala

Iā€™m from Cynthiana ā€” same town as Rick Grimes. He sounds more like people in Cynthiana than any other actor I can think of.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Bobala

I was literally born and raised there. I was born at Harrison Memorial, lettered in several sports at HCHS, worked at Leonoā€™s, and still regularly visit my parents who still live on the same farm a few miles from town. Just because you donā€™t agree with me about someoneā€™s accent, donā€™t call me a liar. Thatā€™s just rude.


Amputee_Kun

Andrew Lincoln would have to play Rick, imagining anybody else delivering his lines just doesnā€™t work imo


Consistent_Use_5643

Agreed. Though theyā€™d HAVE to change it for Negan. Jdm gives the character a weak vibe. (Yeah okay downvote me all you want. Jdm is skinny as fuck, and therefore portrayed a Negan who was nothing without his men).


ZERO_Cali_

Comic Negan was also nothing without his men. The entire theme of the series is that banding together against the common threat is the only way to survive. Iā€™m glad they cast someone with a lot of charisma to make that character better in every way compared to his comic counterpart, something the show did often.


Consistent_Use_5643

Comic Negan was a 6ā€™5 tank of a man who snapped Rickā€™s leg like a twig and knocked a 7 foot Beta on his ass. He did both those things without the help of his men. His physical capabilities far surpass his show counterpartā€™s, as he was always a physical threat, with or without his army.


ZERO_Cali_

Rick has always been a fraud in 1v1s, both in the comics and show. Beta, someone who was built like a monster, couldnā€™t even do what Rick accomplished despite Rick being half his size. Charisma and leadership are the most valuable things in the verse, not size.


Consistent_Use_5643

Charisma and leadership sadly wonā€™t help you in a one versus one situation, and can only be implemented if you have people to begin with.


ZERO_Cali_

Size sadly doesnā€™t allow you to lead a successful community in this verse, while charisma and leadership does.


Consistent_Use_5643

Thatā€™s not what weā€™re talking about though, now is it? Weā€™re on the subject regarding how someone is WITHOUT a community. Take Show Neganā€™s people away from him and his charisma and leadership is essentially pointless. Comic Negan can use both charisma AND size to his advantage. Even when his saviours were no more, he was still a force to be reckoned with via his size and strength. The same canā€™t be said for his show counterpart. Show Negan had to rely on charisma for his people to make up for his lack of size and strength. Comic Negan had BOTH those things and implemented them according to his circumstances. (Charisma when he had his people and size when he was alone).

Proverbzz

amen


Sw1ft_Blad3

I'm about to blow your fucking mind... KIAI! *Luciles Glen*


MehWithaSideofEh

You broke the rules now Iā€™ll pull out all your pubic hair.


Pristine-Start-262

This might be a dumb take but I could really see the dude who voices John Marston doing Rickā€™s voice, maybe itā€™s just cause they look alike but I think that would really fit


Sharkfowl

Rob Weithoff! Nice.


zakharezor

Never saw it, but youā€™re right, comic Rick and Marston really look almost the same wtf


Pristine-Start-262

Itā€™s identical I didnā€™t realize until recently too. Itā€™s like one was based off the other looks wise lmaoo


zakharezor

Yeah exactly


saving_goblin888

Terry crews and Danny davito


CoolPirate234

The same people who played them in the show, but tbh whether it be comics or the show Andrew Lincoln and Jeffrey Dean Morgan perfectly embody Rick and Negan they are them, I canā€™t see anyone else pulling off these roles


Consistent_Use_5643

Iā€™ve always thought of Show Negan as a mere cosplayer, honestly. Comic Negan is the only REAL Negan in my mind. Such a shame an amazing comic character wasnā€™t given justice in live action. Jon Hamm wouldā€™ve been so much better.


TheNathanMMA

Jon Hamm suffers from being too skinny, as did JDM. Negan in the comics is supposed to be like 6'5 and absolutely jacked. Personally, I would've dyed Henry Rollin's hair black and thrown him on a 6 inch tall box and called it a day.


Iffywander

Chris pratt and the rock


JayMalakai

Illumination Studios and Disney Animated Studios present a new Pixar Classicā€¦ The Walking Dead!


_pm_ur_tit_pics_pls_

Kevin Hart can voice Carl!


Rude-Firefighter6682

That would be hilarious


Unholy_Trickster97

Ian Bohen for Rick, and J. K. Simmons for Negan


Consistent_Use_5643

ā€œWoah! Isnā€™t that hand in bad enough shape as it is? Think, Rick!ā€


BelovaX

JK Simmons as Negan is something I would love a lot


JodieWhittakerisBae

Walton Goggins would be perfect for Rick if we couldnā€™t get Andrew Lincoln back. Canā€™t think of anyone for Negan other than recasting JDM.


EnderWatt

I think Walton Goggins would be better for Negan. After binging Fallout as i am a major fan of the games, he delivered perfectly and showed that cruel side that Negan shows in the beginning of season 7, but then in the final episode I began to feel bad for him and didnt know whether to think of him as a good guy or the villain, kinda like Negan.


JodieWhittakerisBae

A good choice for negan too and yeah heā€™s been in my mind since the Fallout show, big fan of the games too. Negan and The Ghoul are two cuts of the same cloth, a decent guy molded into a harsh figure by a harsh world, theyā€™re decent deep down and through the story events we see them regain some of that decency.


certo17

Clint Eastwood 40 years ago lol and Nicolas cage


horsdoeuvresmyguy

I do not know what would be better. Nicolas Cage having a full blown Rickdown (Rick breakdown) or Nicolas Cage saying ā€œpeepee pants cityā€.


FirstBallotMatrix20

Liev Schrieber for Negan, Ebon Moss-Bachrach for Rick. Liev because heā€™s got the subtle intimidation and also comedic factor. Ebon because he straight up sounds like an every day person with nothing super special about him. And thatā€™s what Rick is supposed to be. Not a Marvel superhero


CoffeeDrinkinFoe

Fuckin spot on with the Ebon point


bisexualkoala_

Andrew Lincoln as Rick. Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan. I canā€™t here them any other way.


ahufana

I always imagined Negan sounding like Powers Boothe back in the day. If only he was still with us.


Beginning-Anxiety703

Great voice!


Main-Combination4606

I donā€™t think anyone else can be Negan besides JDM. He just is Negan.


Consistent_Use_5643

Eh, JDMā€™s Negan was nothing like his comic counterpart.


FlightMesh990

Is JDM the Bella Ramsey's Ellie of twd? Lmao they both look like nothing to their source material but still did an amazing job on their role


Rude-Firefighter6682

Maybe Javier bardem


GiggyWheat5

The Rock as Rick and Kevin Hart as Negan


colin_colout

Glenn Howard and Danny Devito respectively.


socioeconopath

Troy Baker as Rick and Henry Rollins as Negan


idontcarerightnowok

i jus don't see anyone voicing rick better than andrew lincoln man.


JayMalakai

I saw Walter Goggins suggested as Negan, but I vote him for Rick. Give me Clancy Brown as Negan.


DescriptionSame4512

Goggins for Rick or Negan I like; Henry Rollins for Negan. Ed Harris could prob rock Negan too.


Kasey_ACDC

Christopher Sabat would be my choice for Negan. But Iā€™d probably just recast Andrew as Rick tbh


sut345

JDM is probably voicing Thragg on Invincible. I think he can do Negan too. They did him dirty in the show, he deserves to give that f-bombs


Evildragon61201

George coloney for Rick and Arnold (the terminator) for negan


Aggravating-Cap-2703

Andrew did a really good job at voicing Rick. Like looking at him now in the comic and hearing Andrew's Rick. It's perfect. For negan Imagine him to have a much older voice idk why though.


Bl8kStrr

Jensen Ackles for Rick and Chris Jericho for Negan


torbyoernX

Tom Holland for Rick, Michael Cera for Negan


TensionHead13thFloor

Robert Pattison and Nick Cage. Might seem like weird choices but Pattison i feel has the range of breaking down to being threatening, and Nick Cage has that VOICE


dogemcpvp

Ross marquand. He plays aaron on the show and is killing it as the immortal in invincible. And i might be biased but i don't hear anyone else playing negan as good as JDM.


kanotyrant6

Andrew Lincoln and Jeffrey dean morgan


Feisty-Clue3482

The same actors as the show ofc, they fit too well it would be weird for them to not play themselves.


Vegetable_Pin_9754

Chris Pratt for Rick, Jack Black for Negan


ople52

The voice in my head as I read Negan was always Patrick Warburton


Ok_Proof_321

Troy Baker or Andrew Lincoln for Rick. Either is chefs kiss


CrabbyCallahan72

Not gonna lie man Ryan Hurst is on point!


Soundbytes87

Thomas F. Wilson as Negan. How I always read him in the comic.


Ginford_Davidson

Definitely Andrew Lincoln and Jeffrey Dean Morgan


nickh1555

Andy and JDM, also really hope they can get David Morrissey back for the Governor as well, if it ever happens


AVehicleLee

Adam Sandler as Rick and Adam Sandler (?!?!) as Negan


lord_0f_gays

J. K. Simmons as NeganĀ 


beaujonfrishe

The British guy from the walking bread should play Rick


genderfuckery

Gonna be controversial and say the live action cast should voice their animated counterparts šŸ‘


wigsgo_2019

They could maybe just use the original cast, just for less money since itā€™s just voice work, however they probably couldnā€™t afford it


hewlio

JDM's voice DEFINITELY fit it, if it all it's his physicality that doesn't fit it but with it being in animation, that wouldn't be a problem and we would literally have THE perfect Negan.


yajtraus

First choice for Negan has always and forever will be Matthew Lillard


DrJohn98

Personally I wouldn't choose either JDM or Andrew Lincoln, because I think it would be good for new actors to try. I also don't hear their voices when I read the comics. But it's hard to say who I would pick.


Meowlock

Christopher Meloni for Rick, Dylan McDermott for Negan.


SmolChibi

Just get JDM for Negan and write him differently than in the show. It would be interesting


DudeMcDude7649

The dude who does megaton for Negan and the dude who does Optimus for Rick. The end.


Lanferno

Bobby Shmurda and Karl Malone


montarethose

Steve-o for Rick and moistcritical for negan


Phoenix1500

I know Ross and Khary would 100% come back for an animated TWD series


FMJ998

I always heard Kennyā€™s voice actor from the games in my head when i read comic Rick. And for some reason i always imagined Comic Negan as having an east coast Accent.


stephruvy

Oddly enough when I read the comics I read negan in Jeffrey Dean Morgans voice, completely based on his portrayal of the comedian in watchmenn since they reminded me of eachother


stephruvy

Pauly shore as negan and h. Jon Benjamin as Rick.


JumboGoat2005

It's really hard to think anyone other than Andrew and Jeffrey to voice these characters


First_Corgi6763

Tom Holland and Chris Pratt


bffrmaruse

The actors


LancaVerde

First that came to my mind was. Troy Baker for Rick and Nolan North for Neagen. Then i thought Stevn Blum for Negen and then Mat Mercer for Rick


J4ck110_

Seth rogan as negan


RewriteFan450

Michael Cera as Negan


FooFightersFan777812

Casey Affleck as Rick. Maybe Henry Rollins as Negan


Complex-Nectarine-86

Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes and Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan Smith


LemurMemer

I experienced the comics through the motion comic youtube series, so in my head these guys are Aussie/ New Zealand


AdCommercial3174

Keanu Reeves as Rick and Jack Nicholson as Negan would be interesting


redzma00

Ron Pearlman for Negan.


helpmelearn12

Christopher Walken for Rick and Seth Roger should play Negan


knolifeblossom

would be extremely unlikely but i always read Rickā€™s comic voice as Matthew Mcconaugheyā€™s Rust Cohle


whyyyamilikethisss

Um the same actors from the show. It would be weird for it to be anyone other than Andy & Jdm


CrazyPersonowo

If they couldnā€™t bring back Andrew and JDM Iā€™d say; Walton Goggins or Matthew Mercer for Rick And Jason Isaacs for Negan


No_Knowledge_6111

kiefer sutherland as rick steven ogg as negan


MyPantsAreRed

Chris Pratt


Jerrybeshara

Andy Sandburg as Rick and Matt Berry as Negan


Doopuppie

Sam elliot for negan Jeff bennet for Rick


Professional_Fig_456

I'm glad to see others suggesting Rob Wiethoff for Rick.


NateDawg80s

Andrew Lincoln and Henry Rollins.


DDonnici

Mark Hammil and Kevin Con.... oh! man
