Who Should Be King Orden In The Runelords Movie?

Bruce Willis' fans can vote for him to play the role of King Orden in the upcoming Runelords movie, as part of a new approach to movie making. But according to the producer David Farland, the head of the Runelords Movie Group, Willis is doing poorly in the poll.

Willis is being considered by producers to play the part of King Orden in the major epic fantasy franchise, The Runelords. He is up against Brad Pitt and Russell Crowe for the part.

While Bruce is not the fans choice at the moment, he is considered a favorite amongst the film's Producers. David Farland feels that Bruce Willis may be the perfect candidate. “As an actor in the Die Hard franchise, Willis plays a character that is perfectly balanced between being a likeable hero, yet as tough as an anvil. He’s been my early favorite.”

Other actors and their fan-bases have campaigned hard for the positions, but Willis's votes only number in the hundreds while actresses from as far away as India have votes in the hundreds of thousands.

The author of Runelords, David Farland, campaigned hard for Willis. He sees this as his perfect role. "I think Bruce Willis has been so type-cast that he almost has no chance of being taken seriously for an Oscar anymore. But as King Orden he can show his range and depth of acting."

The part of King Orden requires a mature actor who can be instantly likeable. At the same time, he is locked in a life-or-death struggle to save the world from a far more powerful enemy. He must show himself as cunning and a strategic thinker. He's passionate, yet he's so set upon winning this conflict he's willing to sacrifice his son and his best friend. The actor who plays Orden must make the audience identify with him and understand his sacrifice. "I think Bruce Willis can pull this off," says Farland.

Millions of Runelords fans the world over are anxious to see who will win the parts of these roles. Obviously, Farland is pulling for Willis. Yet, while actresses like Katrina Kaif and Aishwarya Rai have successfully marshaled their fan bases to vote for them for their roles, Bruce Willis and his fans have done almost nothing. Farland asks, "You have to wonder, do his fans even care?"

Letting fans give input on the actors was the producer’s idea. “We want the creation of this film to be as transparent as possible. We’re not going to give major roles away because some director wants his brother-in-law to fill the spot. In the past, producers haven’t had a chance to get input from fans on major film roles, but with the rise of the internet, we feel that there is great value in hearing from the fans. We want our fans to recognize that they have a vested interest in this movie. Nowadays, in Hollywood the major factor in whether a film gets made, or if it gets made well, comes as the audience makes its voice heard. So we’re giving the world’s fantasy fans a chance to be heard.”
