Casting Tingle in the Zelda Movie | Show of the Weekend

[@rjstokoe]

Karl Urban is Doom Guy. Doom Guy is Link. Job done.

[@TheBigbum1974]

Zelda's voice cries out as we pan the camera across the bleak landscape. Link....Link.... Rip and Tear. Until it is done.

[@beesforbreakfast]

Navi all chirping up “Rip! Tear!”

[@matthewrowlett1564]

You joke, But Karl Urban was one of the ONLY good things About that film, that and the FPS Section, And the Rock Getting Absolutely Destroyed(best Film ending ever, right there). Those 3 things, all that was good in that mountain of Crap. Urban is a Damn good actor, And while I can't see him as Link, I Could see him as, perhaps, A Zora Warrior, a Goron, Or even The King of Hyrule... Or Links Teacher, depending on the storyline used.

[@willyum3920]

I've run the numbers and the maths checks out but only if you also add Judge Dredd and the Sylvester Stallone Constant. So in conclusion, Karl Urban is Wesley Snipes in Demolition Man.... hmm hang on that doesn't sound right

[@CantankerousDave]

Karl Urban is also Dredd. And Bones. And… Cupid? in Xena? Man gets around,

[@TheSjay95]

Ken Jeong has the intensity and weirdness a live action Tingle needs

[@reydecangrejos7087]

This is it. This is the one.

[@tzarn1]

The sheer number of really good Tingles suggested in this video is honestly shocking to me.

[@tzarn1]

I only reacted NO to one of them.

[@Victorina]

Like I did not expect to find myself nodding along and thinking, yeah that's a solid argument 😂😂

[@Mistwolfss]

Lol, did the shocking make you tingle?

[@scottneil1187]

You find a list of names shocking?, ok then.

[@frodobaggins7710]

I may be biased, but Luke's suggestion of Elijah Wood is the perfect casting imo

[@Ironcabbit]

It kinda’ is, tho. Daisy Ridley or Emma Watson as Princess Zelda. Dave Bautista or Jason Momoa as Ganondorf. Maya Rudolph as Nabooru/Urbosa. Danny DeVito as Tingle.

[@strongblade]

I was thinking the same thing. I also considered Joe Pesci...

[@AwesomeWookiee]

This is a Stanley Tucci role if I ever saw one, and you know it.

[@mycatistypingthis5450]

Andy Serkis would also make sense, he can nail the pathetic threat that Tingle embodies.

[@mattball8622]

Andy Serkis is at his absolute best when he's just an unhinged lunatic, which I feel is perfect Tingle energy.

[@worldoffood123]

Exactly who I was thinking of! He might be a little too unsettling tho

[@mycatistypingthis5450]

@@worldoffood123 nothing but the most unsettling will do for Tingle.

[@madalice5134]

He's the first person I thought of when I saw this video.

[@willyum3920]

nice of Luke to wear his Andy 500 t-shirt for his guest presenter. I want one

[@DogcrotchHell]

I was just going to type this dumb joke 🤣

[@katfromthekong414]

😂😂😂

[@willyum3920]

@@DogcrotchHell admit it, you'd buy that merch right

[@le-grey-far-away]

Had the same thought xD

[@Brasc]

Whoever plays Tingle, it's obvious who Purah should end up being. Extensive film credits, background in the sciences, possesses an anti-aging rune. It is, of course, the one, the only, Jane Douglas.

[@MatthewFronsoe]

Kim Kardashian could rock the Purah look

[@codmanout9861]

Which Purah, though? 7 year old or 20 year old? Or just go nuts and have her look her true age of 130?

[@waterinmyotter6245]

Thinking of other characters, Navi specifically, its a shame he passed away because just imagine Gilbert Gottfried constantly shouting, "HEY! LISTEN!"

[@amplifiedattitude]

The late year chaos is always something I look forward to on this channel

[@katfromthekong414]

Same!

[@craaig9118]

Chaos? Whatever do you mean? This is hard hitting journalism right here people 😛.

[@qazqaz93]

I feel like Charles Dance would make a fantastic Tingle. Very happy to play silly roles

[@katfromthekong414]

😂👏👏 omg that would be terrifying! 😂

[@CantankerousDave]

I feel like when no one is looking, Tingle lets the facade drop and is basically Charles Dance’s murderous character in The Last Action Hero.

[@michaelpirrone]

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought that.

[@Letshavesomelunch]

Andy did not come to play! The 1 - 2 punch of Robison followed by Grammer, inspired. Then, just when you think he's done, Andy empties both barrels and gives us Devito followed by Plemons. Incredible stuff. No one is fan-casting like Andy. Best in the game.

[@cxddlxbxnny]

This feels like a Mom Can’t Cook episode and I’m all for it (everyone go listen to Luke and Andy’s podcast!)

[@JinglyBeans]

OMG, it's never realised how old Andy was. It's so lovely of Like to wear his Andy's 50th birthday T-shirt to celebrate!

[@kallasantysanty6092]

I would say cast Alan Tudyk in the role of Tingle, he played weird characters before and can be both funny and unsettling. If i could travel back in time John Candy would be an interesting pick as well... but i cannot time travel yet. For a funny pick that will never happen i would like to see Arnold Schwarzenegger play it, for the voice alone (I'm Tingle and I WILL BE BACK :D) and of course size (Tingle the Barbarian!).

[@ka-mai]

Came to the comments to suggest Tudyk too! The right kind of creepy (in a good way... if there's a good way!)

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

Inb4 Jack Black is actually cast as Ganondorf, Timothee Chalamet as Link, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Zelda. If that happens, I can only hope that Mr faux-Poirot himself, Sir Kenneth Branagh, is cast as tingles. I don't why, but I want to see it. A wild shout would be M. Night Shyamalan as Tingles. I'd watch it.

[@Icam_here]

part of my thinks it would be funny to cast Ian Mckellen or Patrick Stewart as Tingle, i bet ryan reynolds would be a good fit though. Steve Buscemi or Danny DeVito could also be great choices also shout out to who ever did the photoshop edits, especially on the end screen

[@timidwolf]

If they have a Zora character they should get Doug Jones, he's got so much experience playing fish people for some reason!

[@Artificer1911]

It's because of his weird hands.

[@MrTheShane]

There’s really no other choice than beloved internet personality - Luke Westaway.

[@OverlordMMM]

You're totally sleeping on two potential greats for the role. Daniel Radcliffe or Jim Carrey would make terrific Tingles.

[@theprofessionalfence-sitter]

Plus, Jim Carrey has already demonstrated that he can play weird green people.

[@nickburkhardt3229]

I was about to say Daniel Radcliffe he is good being crazy fun like in Miracle Workers but can portray the more serious crazy Tingle

[@sarahmattox1493]

Radcliffe would be perfect for the role! He exudes manic energy.

[@scottneil1187]

Jim Carrey is retired now.

[@OverlordMMM]

@@scottneil1187 Robin Williams made an appearance in the video and he's deceased, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@N0d4chi]

Danielle Radcliff for tingle would be funny too

[@seanritson5053]

Mine would have to be Joe Lo Truglio (Boyle from Brooklyn 99) he plays weird and unsettling so well

[@mrgannon]

Whoa thats actually PERFECT

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

If he hadn't passed away, I would of nominated Robin Williams for the role of Tingle. He was a big fan of the Zelda series and even named his daughter Zelda. The two of them even appeared in a commercial for the 3DS remake of Ocarina of Time.

[@eternalfailure4081]

Woohoo! Time for a (totally respectable) CGI AI recreation!

[@BudBonkerson]

​@@eternalfailure4081Good thing he's specifically protected in his will against that, or else studio execs would be hunting for some animators to do this right now

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

*would have

[@theomnitorium7476]

Can't belive Tilda Swinton didn't come up. Her Tingle would be ethereal and terrifing.

[@schronkfire]

For the same reasons as Elijah Wood, I nominate Daniel Radcliffe. He is now almost exclusively playing the roles of weirdos (he was a corpse, after all), AND how great would it be for a well known wizard actor to play a man you wants to be a fairy??

[@stevemetcalfe6029]

Fred Armisen would make a great Tingle. He would bring that creepy weird energy to the role.

[@LilyMilos]

This is a very very good suggestion

[@ItsSarahRayne]

Did I think I'd ever watch a 14 minute video where two men discuss the dream cast for popular character Tingle? 😂 Absolutely not, but here I am and enjoying the chat too. Thank you for the vid you guys!

[@jameswaller5676]

NORMAL ADULT MEN

[@rburford]

That was 8 minutes of shouting Andy Serkis at my screen and then 6 minutes of gentle weeping when you suggested the other ring-bearing hobbit.

[@TheJakeJackson]

Okay but has anyone seen that series of youtube videos where Macaulay Culkin plays an uber driver with no experience driving? Just adult Macaulay, out of nowhere, and he puts on a riveting performance. Rewatching it now and it just screams Tingle. Dryvers, it's called.

[@peterhague5626]

I like Lukes "Andy 500" shirt They really are true friends

[@danacoons4171]

After the suggestion of Elijah Woods, I was surprised THE quintessential contemporary quirky actor wasn't named: Daniel Radcliffe.

[@samuxan]

Tingle is the kind of material perfect for a post credit scene, I agree with andy. And a great way to tease a sequel

[@mattball8622]

Tingle coming in at the end to set up a crack team like Nick Fury

[@mavortius8768]

@@mattball8622 Kind of like Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love. He is kind of a leader of a team there. I would love to see a movie on that game.

[@speculativemusings3593]

My vote is on Daniel Radcliffe. Tingle falls in line with the wacky, out-there characters he’s played lately.

[@merepseu]

While Guns Akimbo lives rent free in my head, would he ever touch something as high profie as that ever again?

[@jameswaller5676]

My friends, there is one very clear choice- Patrick Stewart. This is the hill upon which I will die

[@pmonday]

Jon dying in the background was the cherry on top of this excellent video.

[@AquaMaryn.]

Whoever did the Tingle editing on all the actors (and Luke and Ellen on the ending screen) - Thanks for the laugh and making my day immensely better.

[@elizabethw.6154]

I thought of Jack Black (because of his personality, his nacho libre movies, and the Nintendo connection since he was in Mario), but I also thought of Andrew Serkis, who was Gollum, seems like a good fit too. 😂

[@thundercookie3214]

Listen, I haven't been going to work for the last 3 weeks and I can now, finally, return to the office knowing that someone has answered the most important question of this year. Thank you, and I side with Luke, I would absolutely love Elijah Wood as Tingle. :)

[@rabbit-exe3606]

I genuinely think Luke would make a good Tingle. however I would not want that to actually happen, because the idea of encountering a Tingle that's as tall as Luke is viscerally horrifying to me

[@notoriousbmc1]

Love Andy's respect for Jesse Plemons. Underrated actor. Highly recommend Fargo Season 2. He's excellent.

[@Christian-rn1ur]

Can't believe they didn't suggest Daniel Radcliffe. He's like a more manic version of Elijah Wood and does 'unsettling possible serial killer' really well.

[@boraxkid1097]

Tilda Swinton and John Hurt (if he was with us) could knock it out of the park

[@doc_eyebrow]

If your Tingle issue lasts longer than 12 minutes then please see a physician

[@MrAlbieWan]

Particularly if it's a "sexual tingle" 😳

[@johnglielmi6428]

I picture Steve Buscemi as saying in full Tingle costume "Why do I have to be Mr. Tingle?" like the awesome line from "Reservoir Dogs" : "Why do I have to be Mr. Pink?" will never forget that no matter how long I live.

[@tonya5183]

Alan Tudyk! Perfect energy and range for this role. Or nicholas cage...

[@MrAlbieWan]

This was my first thought also! 😅 Alan has great range 😁

[@FishyDaBigFish]

Literally came here to say the same thing! Was my first choice! Tudyk all the way!

[@Sogeking79]

After the description I could only see Jeff Ward. He was amazing in the One Piece live action.

[@TheYorkRose]

9:13 I love the idea that Tingle is an older Link from a darker timeline: it's not as if they don't mess around with time travel and multiverses so this is my new head canon.. somehow, idk, I'll figure it out

[@SlimchapUK]

All good picks if it's aimed purely at Western audiences, but a more international cast I reckon Tingle would be Hitoshi Matsumoto (Downtown, or look up Gaki no tsukai). Comedic chops, all the right expressions, big star in Japan.

[@brendandebraga2761]

Danny Divito as tingle boom jobs a goodin

[@WellenInspektor]

Bill Skarsgard would be a natural choice. He's already well known for playing an unsettling clown with a strong connection to balloons.

[@richuar]

I’m going with either Bob Mortimer or Tracy Morgan on condition he plays the role as ‘Tracy Jordan playing Tingle’

[@michaelniesen3711]

They were so close with Kelsey Grammer. Luke even shouted "Niles!" at one point. The correct choice is David Hyde Pierce.

[@StanMarsh1]

If you want a REALLY weird Tingle you gotta go with Crispin Glover.

[@billthebodyguy]

I'm pulling for Daniel Radcliffe to be Tingle. That is some awesome manic energy

[@W2APS]

You want weird and unhinged but funny. Daniel Radcliffe. 🤣

[@ciaralizabeth]

Michael Cera comes to mind. He could pull off the suit and the weirdness.

[@Reject101Personal]

The use of Tim Robinson as tingle on the thumbnail had me clicking in this video so fast to say yes. Just Yes.

[@alexwillens6857]

You gotta do CGI tingle with Tim Curry's face!

[@masternecro3511]

Add a mustache and the mock up of Elisa Wood Tingle is spot on.

[@JezzyCatProductions]

Same logic as Elijah Wood. Daniel Radcliffe. or even better both doing the interchanging thing thats never acknowledged you mentioned considering they often get mistaken for each other and both have admitted to enjoying doing absolutely balmy roles since their "big franchise" i'm pretty sure they've even joked about swapping places in movies in the past

[@InertiaCreeps]

Awkwafina *ONE HUNDO PERCENT* . Luke is a certified (if he isn’t, somebody hand him a cert) genius. Ergo, this suggestion is a *GENIUS LEVEL* pick! Awkwafina *FTW* !!!

[@codmanout9861]

I nominate Eugene Cordero (Casey from Loki, voice of Rutherford from Lower Decks, the new Simply juice guy). Seeing his characters, I think he would fit into the TIngle role really well.

[@webgiant7123]

Nicholas Cage. Hear me out. He does any role, he has done weird roles (Ghost Rider, Weird Dracula), and he just did "Willy's Wonderland," where He Never Speaks.

[@Banquet42]

Kate McKinnon playing Justin Beiber should play Tingle. I will also accept Daniel Day Lewis or Denzeil Washington.

[@cameronrice2165]

Elijah Wood as Tingle, Orlando Bloom/Luke Evans as Link, Liv Tyler as Zelda, and Viggo Mortensen as Link's Uncle

[@MrAlbieWan]

This would work for the inevitable parody film which releases alongside it, "Bored of the Links" 😂😂😂

[@cameronrice2165]

Lord of the Links: Return of the Kokiri

[@mmobofficial]

Well that's a horrifying thumbnail to wake up to...

[@AvidCat5000]

Fred Armisen for Tingle. Just beware of tunnels.

[@Ccorran]

I fully expected a suggestion of Jim Rash! I can 100% see Dean Pelton popping up in Community dressed as Tingle

[@Prawnsly]

Stephen Merchant for Tingle? And maybe Matt Berry for Ganon. Fit Richard Ayoade, Alice Lowe, and Mathew Holness in there somewhere. Basically I'm angling for a Hyrule adaptation of Darkplace.

[@simtbotw]

I can't believe they didn't mention Christopher Walken !

[@brandonferreira854]

I think Andy was so close with an It's Always Sunny cast member. Tingle needs to be played by Glenn Howerton. The man that plays Dennis. He is the best at creating a truly creepy character and still somehow be funny

[@scottmoore6011]

Unhinged tingle content. I'm here for it

[@KirbyCom]

When they mentioned a well-respected actor with gravitas, I thought about Andre Braugher. Shakespearean, but also demonstrably great in comedic roles (Brooklyn Nine-Nine)

[@philcannon91]

Jack Black would be my first choice, but honestly several actors could manage it.

[@liamross340]

hunter schafer as zelda is the best casting idea for this film i’ve seen by far yet obviously some backwards people hate it

[@AngelBeatYunara]

"Let's just think about Tingle." I'd rather not, thank you.

[@Liatris-v5k]

Daniel Radcliffe, definitely. He has the perfect energy.

[@thepurplemarauder]

Jon had a big presence in this excellent episode. I like it. Also I love the small visual gag at the end card.

[@hannarchy6554]

Other character notes I would give for Tingle: He's not a person, but he's more a person than he is anything else. You only call him a human because it's the least inaccurate option. And, most crucially, the fantastic butt he has in Hyrule Warriors.

[@jmgriffee]

the ending card will haunt me forever

[@ghostofbaz]

Andy Serkis Nicholas Cage Peter Dinklage😂

[@littlefurnace]
