D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie - Wild Speculation and Poll

[ART!]

If there's more than a whiff of a players-at-the-table framing structure in this D&D movie, I will eat my hat. I consider it that unlikely.

That is a possiblity, but I really doubt that Hasbro/WotC would do it that way. Not for a 100+ million $ Blockbuster. Would it be a 20-50 Millionen mid-range/low-budget Indie-Movie (low budget for Hollywood) I could see that happening.
Of course I could be wrong and they surprise us all with a good script, that does such a frame story well.

It's too earnest for modern day cynical Hollywood.

It could work on TV though.

A netflix series could be done that way. They have a thing for unlikely concepts.

Cumberbatch does love to play a good wizard or dragon or possibly both. He's in no shortage of genre movies and doesn't seem to object to them.

Personally I'm fingers-crossed for Cumberbatch with a cameo as a full-on pansexual and proud Elminister. Bring some of that Ed Greenwood spirit to the movie!

Khelben Arunson?
How many wizards are there in Faerun that's NOT Elminster?!

None. They're all just Elminster wearing a different fake nose.

That includes the female ones.

ESPECIALLY the female ones!
I've read that book!
