It took a while to get everyone confirmed! Here’s the line-up:
- Derek de Lint, “Old Thom”. One of the few Dutch actors with a lot of international film experience
- Sergio Hasselbaink, “Barly”. He’s a new talent here, former dancer/skater, famous for his lead role in “Sonny Boy”.
- Rogier Schippers, “Captain”. Rogier is very well known as theatre & TV series actor in the Netherlands.
- Chris Haley, “Tech Head”. Chris is Pixel Pusher at JEHProductions. He was selected after a wonderful youtube audition!
- Jody Bhe, “Djenghis”. She’s an experienced musical actress, currently doing Miss Saigon.
- Vanja Rukavina, “Thom” and Denise Rebergen, “Celia” were casted via auditions at Kemna Casting. Excellent picks from our casting agent Houdijn Beekhuis!
Extra’s for scientists fighting with robots: Daan van ‘t Einde (Blenderhead audition), Keir Meirle (libmv dev), Campbell Barton (Blender dev). Hippie: Jeremy Davidson.
So which character is Ton playing? :D
Since they don’t want to spoil the last minute, we can’t know yet what role he is going to play in that part. :D
Ton will be playing the big boss at the end :)
Groovy!
Oh, will the film be in Dutch with subtitles, or will it be English? :)
English spoken!
Yeah. As soon as I clicked ‘post’ I realised what I asked. The script is in English, all others have been also. Duhhh! Excuse me while I slap myself. :D
Consider yourself excused!!!!!!!!!! :P
I guess it would also be hard for Ian to direct. I don’t think his Dutch is particularly good.
CHRISTOPHER!
MARCO!
Ohhhh Campbell and Jeremy…way to go guys :D
I was very close to submitting for this .. but then I realized I’d be up against talent and I needed to be in Amsterdam … one of these things posed a problem. I’ll let you decide which.
Look like awesome leads! :)
I’m crazy excited! :D The actors look awesome!
awsome i +1 to Ton having a cameo….or maybe the rest of the crew showing up here and there
Ton for Overlord of the Universe!
>>”Hippie: Jeremy Davidson.”
lol :D
Good luck, folks! :)
Why isn’t Ton acting? It’s a must.
Derek de lint! daaaaamn, i love that guy!
But i might just as excited about Keir playing one of the scientists :P
i do hope the actors speak english without a horrible dutch accent >_<'
Emo in elephants dream was a good example of this..
Mad scientists do tend to speak with horrible accents.
Great actors! Derek was pretty great in ‘Nova Zembla’ and his role in ‘Gooische Vrouwen’ is also pretty hilarious. Haven’t seen Sonny Boy, so I can’t really comment on Sergio and all the others. Overall, I think you casted some really great actors!
Great to see Chris Haley get the Tech Head part! If you haven’t seen it, I urge people to check out his audition (that’s how you submit an audition tape!). Just hope you don’t get all shy in front of the movie crew, Chris – keep that mad Tech Head mannerism thing going (just imagine you’re back in your audition room… or that everybody’s naked… ugh…).
Also, Ton should definitely do a Stan Lee/Alfred Hitchcock type walk on. It’s what the people demand. :)
Thanks PB, I’ll bring my A game. ;) I’ve followed this project just as obsessed as everyone else here, can’t believe I get to go out there and be a part of it. So crazy!
We demand!
Derek de Lint looks like a total badass, can’t wait to see this guy in action!
Great lineup.
Temper the overacting and this will be great!
+1 for a cameo by Ton
+1 for Jody nude scene
-1 for Ton nude scene :)
+1 for Ton nude scene !
Well maybe we’ll consider a brief scene, something like a flash, provided there are no mechanical appendages… ;)
Hey now the casting line up looks very promising. I like what I see.
Aaaallll Right Chris! glad to see you made it on the team dude!
Thanks Norv! :)
yep, Ton for the final boss, cosplayed like Bowser or ganon XD
As long as they can act better than those guys in Big Buck Bunny, I couldn’t understand a word they said.
Actors in BBB? It was all hand-animated and there was no voice acting other than ‘ehh’-sounds, i don’t understand where you draw the connection.
Maybe you mean the BBB ‘advertisement’ for and from renderfarm.fi?
Wow, has no one ever heard of sarcasm? It was a joke, I am well aware there was no dialogue in BBB. :P
Actually there was, watch the “A Capella” version of BBB :D
Yeahhhh this is samthing I havend expeted this are
realy brillant Actors and I know same… :D
Yes okay I Expected I Line of andpict Brillant Actort who no one knows ….
I am a bitt Positiv schockt :D
whhaaaaa : cool staff and cool story expect cool actor : that done …
I always knew that Jeremy is gonna play the great new ever but what he his gonna do exactly. Playing with some grass when robot are exploding next to him ?
O? We can have actors? Then I want this one or captain:

chris looks like derek maybe chris should be young thom
This is what I have been waiting for. I really like the line-up. I am sure you are right about Vanja and Denise. Who knows, it might be the start of a great career for them.
Maybe it’s funny to have one actor shouting in Dutch ”gloeiende gloeiende!” when everything’s on fire. (it’s an alternative for language like ”damnit” and it means ”glowing glowing!” :D)
Old Thom looks a bit like Gary Graham (Soval from StarTrek).
I’m really glad to see some experienced people here, good choice!
Very cool.
