People are well aware of the multiplayer typhoon known as Left 4 Dead. Well what if they did and actual series (or at least one) of movies? Well my friend and I have thought about it and have put some lead role suggestions. Tell us what you think!

Lewis~Will Smith (you know him)

Bill~Clint Eastwood (Grand Turino)

Zoey~Rose McGowan (Charmed,Grindhouse: Planet Terror)

Francis~Christian Bale (Dark Knight)

Everyone I know hates Francis and would probably enjoy seeing him get killed off early on. Also, why Christian Bale? Will Smith, no, I want Jackson for the humor. Nah, Will Smith could work. Clint Eastwood is too old. I don't know who Rose McGowan is.

Making a movie of L4D is useless, as the game plays out like a movie anyways.

A left 4 dead movie would be 28 days later and night of the living dead combined. There would be no point and no one would want to see it.

Lets think about something here... the last time there was a movie made off of a game that sucked was...YEARS ago.. technology is different now, I mean Resident Evil was awesome, silent hill was awesome.. I do think this is a great idea.. even if they make it a computer animated just like Resident evil degeneration.. but either way.. this sounds like a great idea... how games made FROM movies are usually terrible

Lewis- yeah I like Smith, that would work. Or Cheadle? I don't know, he seems more like Lewis than Smith. Bill- Eastwood? eh... maybe, I was thinking Nicholson for a second, but that would be insane. Maybe Eastwood is the best bet. Zoey- Any female will do, as long as she looks like Zoey. Francis- I can't see Bale as Francis. Maybe Bruce Willis? actually, Willis should be Bill and ___ should be Francis. Oh man why is it so hard to think up of an owg actor for Francis! anyways, if this does happen, which it won't, casting has got to be perfect.

I think it would be a cool, because it would be like 28 days later mixed with I am leged.

I think will smith is to big of a name to be in it personally, Cheadle would be better, he's less of an icon.

I think it would be pretty bad ass making a L4D movie. And, heh, no the movie wouldn't be exactly like the game because the game has absolutely no story. Doesn't say how the infection spread, how the infection came to be, nothing. So a L4D movie wouldn't be pointless and MANY people would see it purely due to the fact that people love the game. I do agree that they would have to have some amazing actors though. That would help. But anyways yeah, plenty of people would see it regardless of it sucking or not. Plus people love zombies. Anyways, I think this should be the casting.

Louis-Will Smith

Bill-Bruce Willis

Zoey-Not Angelina Jolie

Francis-Jason Statham

Who could possibly hate Francis? Besides, just because it's a zombie movie doesn't mean any of the 4 have to die. (Yes that sounded stupid, but hear me out.) If people were really craving some human blood, couldn't there be some temporary survivors, or maybe base it around Dead Air, and show the tank on the plane causing it to crash? I think that might work.

Left 4 Dead would be a terrible movie. There's no story in the game, so all you'd see in a movie is 4 people doing work on Zombies. You get what you put in in Left 4 Dead. You read the writing in the Safe Houses, you actually have somewhat of a story. If not, then it's a "A to B" game.

There already is a left 4 dead movie, two of them in fact.

They're called 28 days later and 28 weeks later.

Take 28 days later, add a vietnam vet, and drop the UK: you have left 4 dead.

you guy's are getting it all wrong. It's not about whether L4D should be a movie, or if it'll be a good/bad movie. We all know if it did happen, it would suck and that it is pointless to make a movie which is based off movies. This thread is not about that, it's about casting actors/actresses to play the roles of Zoey, Francis, Louis and Bill. Left 4 Dead: The Movie would be terrible, we know, now help out and contribute by saying who you think would be god casting roles.

It would probably be made by Uwe Boll, the man who can't get enough of crappy game-based movies. He thinks he is a part of the gaming community but really, everyone wants him to stop doing his movies because they degrade the video games that they are based on.

Left 4 Dead Movie = Could be okay, but only if a capable director was in charge.

Even then, Left 4 Dead doesn't have any stalwart hero badass kind of characters. The survivors in L4D are simple everyday people who are forced into a not-so-everyday situation.

True, a Left 4 Dead movie would not be fine cinema. However, it IS great fun to try to cast it. The cast suggestions I have seen on here thus far are lame, and if not lame, then impossible (like Clint would EVER agree to do a game movie...)

So here it is folks...

Francis: Adam Baldwin (Jayne from Firefly)

Bill: Billy Bob Thornton (he could be made to look older, and he can do that grizzled vet voice pretty well)

Zoey: Ellen Page (Juno, Kitty Pryde) She actually LOOKS just like Zoey.

Louis: Mos Def (Will Smith is the likely candidate, but he's too buff, and he has two modes: serious or goofy. I think Mos Def would be able to pull it off better.)

And anything else would be tragic.

Are you serious you would actually consider a left4dead movie, wow, that would be beyond pathetic.
