They should turn 'Jedi Fallen Order' into a movie. Cameron Monaghan would be a great protagonist for a new trilogy.

[@heavenights]

I agree🖤

[@acidbvrn]

Maybe series not movie either way would love an on screen adaptation

[@wolfgaming538]

Innit man

[@buddyshitposting1497]

bro if you have some plans... just say it

[@superman5951]

I think a series. Not exactly that same story but like a series taking place after it.

[@SeenAGreatLight]

When you're sad when the game ends, you know it was a good one.

[@taylorstephenson4354]

So extremely proud of Cameron.... does amazing in everything he does

[@quinnobrien4517]

Exactly wether it’s cal, joker, or Ian from shameless his preformances are amazing

[@jessicasuzanne___]

Same 🥹🥹

[@DFTNSHEXGRM]

He's fantastic in this game. I enjoyed every second playing it, and sadly beat the game last night.

[@TFLdotcom]

STAR_SLINGER yeah I beat it before I was ready too. But then I just restarted on a harder difficulty

[@Jake.Nash629]

The downside is the game has little replayability

[@rocklinsreactions1807]

@@Jake.Nash629 I played it like 12 times lol. It's like watching a movie. Even tho you know whats gonna happen its still fun

[@Jake.Nash629]

@@rocklinsreactions1807 True, I've found myself recently going back to it a lot, my opinion has changed on that its just a quick game

[@maxxandubar503]

It ended too soon for me too! Loved it!

[@ElanorNarmolanya]

The acting in this game was just superb. Cameron especially did such an incredible job of conveying Cal's character and emotions in subtle ways. As an optimistic, empathetic person who also tends to have walls up, it was amazing to see that personality portrayed so well. I can't wait to go on more journeys with Cal and crew!

[@jbc00l]

It’s criminal how this game got completely snubbed by the Game Awards despite being eligible for this year

[@yellowbat79]

I think its just the timing.. next year its going to be nominated

[@Demetrix13]

yellow bat literally it is timing cause theres no way this game couldnt be nominated

[@yellowbat79]

@@Demetrix13 yes

[@Demetrix13]

yellow bat it just sucks cause this game now is going against monsterous amazing games coming out next year

[@kroganbaby6163]

@@Demetrix13 Fallen Order and DMC 5 should've been nominated for GOTY, and yeah, next year will be really hard for any game to compete against Cyberpunk and The Last Of Us 2.

[@mach2223]

It's always great when an actor is really invested in the franchise he's a part of. You can tell Cameron has a good amount of passion for Star Wars, and he adds a lot to the character. Sam Witwer is a lifelong fan, and he made Starkiller an iconic character, along with his portrayals of Maul and other Star Wars appearances.

[@SCUMMY4205]

I'd love to see him make an appearance as Cal in a live action setting.

[@speedboyz8182]

Cameron Monaghan would be a great actor to play cal in a live action movie of his game! he is a great actor!!!

[@TheNorthRemebers]

I only know this man as Ian Gallagher so this is super cool seeing him in a game

[@Jaxbot]

I never knew the joker from Gotham played Cal!? 🥺 damn I love this damn actor and character

[@capmeme4745]

I love this game! I really hope they make a movie based on this. Cameron monaghan is definitely my favorite actor.

[@swiftkurisu8792]

I agree he makes a really good joker too

[@LifeInPink999]

Never was into Star Wars but I’m buying this game just for him. Great actor, can’t wait for more from him!

[@Minifigcreator97]

Cal Kestis belongs in the top 5 Jedi category Anakin, Obi-wan, Luke, Mara Jade, Cal. Some of the coolest Jedi characters

[@jockmanjuicebox4595]

What about Qui Gon, Yoda, Mace or ki adi mundi

[@GuitarGod2112xx]

Or Ashoka or starkiller

[@idontknowyet8540]

Kanan Jarrus, anyone...?

[@rancidnut]

This story arc DESERVES movies. Best star wars story ever in my opinion. Cameron is awesome as Cal, the rest of the crew needs signed up ASAP.

[@philharrison5210]

Going to have to have a shuffle round in my top 5 Jedi list. This game is fantastic.

[@jockmanjuicebox4595]

Hows your list so far?

[@philharrison5210]

Cal's number 1. For now anyway.

[@michaelfante713]

It's a very good game Guys you guys agreed

[@brianaisawesome6580]

Because I've watched shameless I feel like this is something great thats happened to someone I know. How funny. Way to go Ian!

[@quinnobrien4517]

Exactly

[@ricorommeldumaplin4822]

This game not only deserves a sequel but also a live action series, seeing cal make contact with all the surviving jedi would be a sight to behold

[@Sebastianguitar01]

This game itself show that EA/Disney can do quality products with people that is exited about Star Wars.

[@erickmarquez506]

The dude won my respect period, he even make me see Gotham and I hate CW, that's the level of great this Young actor deserves my praises, the character should become a franchise, to even the movies... As a crossroads in the war against the Empire...

[@jackhetfield3116]

Gotham isn't on CW

[@quinnobrien4517]

If you wanna see more stuff from him definitely watch shameless it’s a good show and he’s really good in it

[@brandontran5316]

Gotham was made by Fox

[@jamalhailey1962]

Man it's a blast to play as the shameless actor when I first saw I was yooo my guy from shameless is in here? I hope their a sequel he did a fantastic job

[@OGM_OriginalGameMusic]

Interesting hearing him talk about his strat. I tend to master the basics 1st (more health, attack etc) and THEN i treat myself to some sick moves

[@Toocoolforschool573]

I loved this game so much can’t wait for the next one whenever that is

[@radam282]

Love Cameron, he's an amazing actor, also loved his customized game choices.

[@phrophannus]

I hope we get to see him in live action, considering this game is movie canon

[@kroganbaby6163]

At 02:44, that's pretty much what is lacking with Rey in the new trilogy.

[@JBTriple8]

i really liked his character and i ship hiim with Merrin

[@JCW7100]

Same to both!

[@buddyshitposting1497]

ahh yes the goth girlfriend

[@scorchedsauce1488]

All I hear is Cal.

[@randomapple64]

Lmao glad I'm not the only one who makes everyone have bright vibrant crazy colors! 😂 also orange saber for the win!!

[@Larryandhisbelts]

Just playing this game now. I hope they do more with him. Cal is an absolutely amazing character.

[@lucasmroczynski5543]

one thing that bothers me is why does Cere Junda looks like 1 bat hit away from looking like Glenn from the walking dead

[@MichaelNoMyers]

Bro her eyes WERE wide af

[@farennicole4569]

I enjoyed playing every second of this game!! I cannot wait for the second one😄 I just beat it and I'm sad but I'm still very excited for the next 💯❤

[@realMatchGrade]

Absolutely love the orange saber. Needs to be accepted as canon and made available more often.

[@JesseblueXai]

I need him and merrin in a serious live action (not only as a cameo or easter egg) But only if they do the jedi series and characters justice, i dont want them to be ruined... Great actors, great characters, and I dont even like the star wars franchise, i only played it bc i loved cameron on other shows so much lol

[@ricardobanta7461]

SHAMELESS!!!

[@hoarsecorpse]

_Mickey enters store._ *IAN GALLAGHER!*

[@Xbitxx]

Dude this is crazy… I never knew who this dude was. I just randomly found out who he was by finding out he used to date Peyton list and was like…. This dude would be a great live action cal kestis. Little did I know… 🤯

[@assassinchristmas7288]

watching this while playing fallen order lol

[@daleflannery7667]

My first Star Wars experience happened in 1977 my mom would not take me to see it until she saw it first she wanted to make sure that it was okay for me to see but I'll never forget seeing it for the first time Star Wars A New Hope back then it was simply called Star Wars there was no VCRs no DVDs no Blu-rays you could not go out and buy Star Wars movies except for one thing that had the movie it only had the Tie Fighter attack on the Millennium Falcon and it was a projection real you know where you used to be able to rent a projector from the library and you put up a sheet and you could run projector movies at home. I remember seeing Star Wars for the first time it blew me into the back of the theater I will never experience the love for a movie as I did Star Wars I went Star Wars crazy if it didn't have Star Wars and it I didn't care and that includes schooling. I would play Star Wars with my toys do the whole movie over and over again it drove my mom nuts I remember she had the soundtrack to Star Wars on record and she would play that music for me over and over again I love the music that's the reason it hurts me deeply at what Disney has done to this movie Saga I will never except the sequel Trilogy is part of Star Wars nor will I ever forgive Kathleen Kennedy for what she did to George Lucas and what she did to the Star Wars fans I hate and despise that woman however I did enjoy Rogue one and solo was okay wasn't great but it was okay I would love to see Fallen order as a movie I mean the person that did the voice looks like how I would be very interested in seeing him continue his story is Cal kestis in live action movie

[@xxcampheroxx]

Nice!!

[@shogun8159]

What are the odds that Two Actors who made their mark as iconic Jedi also play their own unique version of the Joker?

[@lagalactor2891]

i love jerome!!
