Ender's Game


I don't know about everyone else, but when I saw this kid I immediately thought he would make a great Ender... Anyone else agree???
The only thing is that he's a bit old... I could see them bumping up the age for the movie (if it ever gets made) though...

My kids read those books. wow they are making the movies now? excellent.
Well, Iam now a big fan of Dakota and think hed make a perfect Ender.
He has such a young and angelic look about him so I don t think hes too old.
good call by the way!

Thanks :)

Well, they say that they're planning on releasing one right now, but they've said that many different times for the last couple of years and it always ends up getting cancelled :( I really hope it makes it this time though, cause it would be awesome!!!
And yeahh, there's just something about him that seems so much like the character!!!

Maybe someone else could play Ender as an 8 year old, then he could play Ender as a young teenager.

damn..... good idea. i won't get my hopes up, but that would be great

He would make a GREAT Ender. Best child actor I've seen since Dakota Fanning. Oh wow... Dakota Dakota. :)

Ender is probably going to be played by Asa Butterfield(Hugo)

Before I start I should say that Ender's Game IS being made and Asa Butterfield has been OFFERED the role of Ender (he has not been confirmed).

***Edit to add: As of 11/29 Asa has been CONFIRMED as Ender***

Another poster and I over at the Ender's Game board were talking about Dakota as Ender. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1731141/board/thread/191557536?d=191677127 &p=1#191677127

I could definitely see Dakota as Ender. Although he's currently 12 and still will be during filming, I think it's better than having a 15-year-old in the role. That would set the other roles in the 17 to 18-year-old range, something the author of the novel has said he wouldn't allow.
