[Picspam] Genderbend!Live Action Sailor Moon
So, last night, I had this truly horrifying idea: what if the cast of Sailor Moon reversed genders?
.....clearly I had to follow this train of thought to its natural conclusion. Now I love Sailor Moon and the original cast, dearly, and would not want to actually have to think about a real-live action Western movie but this is all for fun, imagining how Sailor Moon would be different if the main characters were a different gender. Subsequently, if the main characters of SM were a different gender, Sailor Moon would NOT be known as Sailor Moon - it'd just be known as another male-centric superhero tv series.
First up: Justin Hartley as Usagi Tsukino (Justin Hartley plays the Green Arrow/Oliver Queen on Smallville.)


Leonard DiCaprio as Minako Aino (OK, so he's a pretty boy but the pretty boy can act and I'm pretty sure he could get Minako's complex character down pat.)


Brian Austin Green as Rei Hino


James Franco as Makoto Kino


Ben Barnes as Ami (OK, casting Ami as a dude was really, really hardheh, like the other four choices were easy, and I was initially going to go with Brian Austin Green and have Ben Barnes as Rei Hino but then I was like, Ben Barnes looks like he's such a sweetie pie and Brian Austin Green is situated more to play Rei because he can be badass and Rei is a bit more badass than Ami - at least physically speaking, Ami is more badass in an intelligent, calm way.)

(Yes, this is what happenswhen people let me I stay up late. And get bored out of my mind.)
