Me When I See Freddie Stroma:
This HAS nothing to do with the other actors I placed in as Danny Petrelli because I'm going to show you a reason why I imagine Freddie as Danny more than Evan Peters in the main 2010s book.
If you guys go back to some parts of this book where I showed pictures of Book Danny: his hair, smile, and facial features remind me of the character when looking at Freddie Stroma. After expanding Danny's personality, I can't see Evan Peters as Danny Petrelli anymore because I feel like EP plays the same serial-murder character in everything he's in except for movies like Safelight and X-Men. EP doesn't look soft appearance-wise when I place Danny next to him. Danny has a soft-masculine appearance with a personality of a bright ball of sunshine. Comparing Freddie's appearance to Danny's is how I can envision the character being more alive. The only thing that Freddie doesn't have is Danny's height and eye color. Danny's about 6 feet to 1 inch with dark brown eyes.
To delve deeper into this, Danny and Linda are supposed to be Yin and Yang.
EXAMPLE & WHY:
Putting Logan Browning and Evan Peters together as the main couple of the six-novel series doesn't look right because I can't picture any chemistry between them. EP would look awkward next to LB and they don't look like a power couple.
In the other decades, they looked more like a power couple and could see THE chemistry if any of them starred in a movie together.
Cary Elwes & Halle Berry (80s)
Leonardo DiCaprio & Bianca Lawson (90s)
Devon Sawa & Alicia Keys (2000s)
Ross Lynch & Quintessa Swindell (2020s)
A/N: Okay, Ross and Quintessa win this round because I see heavy chemistry with them than the rest.
Linda is a YIN and Danny is YANG. If you don't know what I mean by this, Linda was in the darkness of her insecurities and dealing with her own battles such as being the Valiant to destroy evil while Danny had this calm persona that made Danny and Linda mesh. The Yang part of Danny will make much more sense in the sequel when fleshing out his character.
However, I see a balance of power dynamic between the two. And if you put Freddie and Logan as Danny and Linda, I can see fireworks sparking in their characters.
