GUYS I THINK I FOUND OUT WHOS PLAYING NATHAN IN THE LIFE IS STRANGE TVSHOW
I was checking Tatum’s followings and saw she had followed this guy:
when I clicked on his profile i saw he just followed literally everyone involved in the tvshow.
AND LOOK AT HIS FACE, he literally looks like Raphael Luce which was my pick for Nathan on my fancast…
TAKE THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT OF COURSE (who knows maybe he is Warren lmao) BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK???
Also lets keep this on the low in case it is him bc i dont want to have him lose this job or anything bc of this hahaha
Lmaooo in the end he was no one, he followed everyone involved in the show for shits and giggles lmaooo

the actors for Jefferson Joyce David and Frank are casted and they look mostly good i think. here's hoping Nathan Victoria Kate and Warren are casted really well!
Love your fancast btw!
I really thought they were going to announce Nathan Victoria Kate and Warren before the adults…. Got it wrong unfortunately 😭 maybe they are saving best for last 🤪
The cast has been very consistent until now, every actor looks like their game counterpart… we will have to see if with the last 4 it will still happen (but im still hoping for a diverse cast someway, lets see if it will happen)
And thanks 💕 i spent a loooong time searching these actors
girl, thank you SO MUCH for talking so much and in deep dive about the life is strange TV show.
Thank you.
you have single handedly cleared (most of) my worries about them ruining the game (in a lot of the ways D9 ruptured them) and turning them into the capitalist nightmare they had become in some ways as their story got retold and continued.
in reality, I genuinely don’t mind lis, pricefield, max and Chloe being retold over and over again. That shows the reach and power of their love, their story. That’s how impactful it is (their story); that there will always be some sort old inspiration, that someone somewhere out there with the means to will gain from and use to create something almost entirely new with. And the fact that it’s two queer characters… that shit is beautiful.
I just worry about the integrity of it all. Of that story retelling. You know how big companies have misused and disrespected the stories of queer ppl in the past years (even now it happens)… and how hard it is for honest creators to tell the story their own ways… I get worried.
But seeing the information, about the show that I was never going to watch (cuz let them rest, but if it’s a good show then I’m good with it lmao); seeing the actors and directors and show runners… and a lot of them are queer and/or poc 🥹🥹🥹
bro. those ppl understand these complex stories THE MOST. I believe and I feel that they’re going to handle them with so much care bruv 🥹😭
I’m going to watch tatum’s YT show, but even before you said it, I could already see from their vibe in their pics that they embodied max’s muted (and imo, just-bubbling-under-the-surface, cuz she’s still very powerful just quiet about it lol) but strong personality. I’m even worried about Chloe’s spiky but soft personality cuz maisy seems really sugary sweet lol. no matter what they do, I hope the creators are able to show the love, grief and sacrifice of max and chloe’s story in new and beautiful ways. Even if it doesn’t fit one to one with the game.
I personally love to imagine all these retellings and continuations as different universes ever since I read the comics. I’m replaying the first game after watching Reunion’s gameplay on YT and my love for them is just getting stronger and stronger again and I’m worried but I’m also happy that it could go right honestly.
Thank you for showing me that with your posts. I’m going to look more into the production process as time goes on and I can’t wait to watch the show now honestly. I hope the rest of the directors, etc keep the integrity of their story like Ms. Kasuma.
Oh gosh, thank YOU for writing all this! This ask is so sweet!! 😭
I had my doubts too back in September, mainly because I was so sure the show would never get made after 9 years(!) of development hell, and because Christian Divine's tweet about Dontnod not being involved made me really dread how another team would handle this adaptation. I've been burned before by Netflix's Avatar The Last Airbender, which sucked after waiting for 6 years, so I didn't want to set false expectations.
But then the casting for Max and Chloe came out and it just got me! I LOVE that we have unknown actors so I won't associate Tatum or Maisy with any other character and they can just disappear into their roles. Appearances alone just blew me away-- Tatum literally looks like she was born to play Max. But then I saw her in Meek (tw: SA) and all I saw was Max. She embodies that shyness, awkwardness, discomfort, and slight sass, but also trauma and quiet anger just below the surface, all in 15 minutes. I haven't seen Maisy in My Old Ass yet, but it's on my list. I really adore how sugary sweet Maisy is in press because I think she'll be someone who will care deeply for the character of Chloe beyond the poorly-worded criticisms that detractors like to throw at her. I can tell from their photos together that they have chemistry, they're so cute 😭 Also, I've said before how simultaneously terrified and excited I am for LiS to get a mainstream press tour-- a part of me is just eager to see two unapologetically queer, Gen Z actresses promote the show!! I want them to become another Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie type duo 😄
As for the show itself, it's really the first game that I miss. The attempted continuations (never read the comics either) haven't done it for me because I always believed in DN's vision of LiS as an anthology series, and because I was uninterested in seeing Pricefield suffer any more after the Bae ending. But, a TV adaptation is a new interpretation. They're creating their own canon, not infringing on Dontnod's or trying to extend canon from Dontnod's work. And since it won't be choice-based, I really hope the showrunners write a new ending that doesn't touch the Bay/Bae moral dilemma of the first game. And if that ending allows for a more natural direct continuation in a season 2 instead of adapting LiS2 or DE, I'd be open to see what that is. Let the show be the show and the game be the game. Even if the show isn't good, we'll always have the game's canon!
@leaderofthebadguys has done amazing work finding interviews with Story Kitchen. She's probably the show's number one fan rn because she's been following for project updates since 2017! I learned from these interviews that Story Kitchen had their eyes on Life is Strange all the way back in 2014! They probably saw a game pitched as a playable indie movie and thought it would be prime material for an adaptation, but nobody could've predicted how much it would blow up. Dmitri M. Johnson had this to say about LiS:
"Life is Strange, there are a lot of big feelings around that one, that's an example of an IP we were involved with since before the first game came out. When these fans are feeling protective, I assure you, we are equally protective." "There are predatory producers out there who will never play a game... we root for every adaptation. We want them all to work. We just want to make sure they're in the right hands and with people who actually care."
(source, 26:35, 40:15, 42:34)
Mike Goldberg also says that what appealed to them about LiS is that it's the first game to win a Peabody award, its feminist themes, audience of all genders, and "strong LGBTQ+ story." The more news that's coming out about the crew, like Karyn Kusama and Lauren Wolkstein as directors, the more I feel like this show will be in good hands.
Genuinely, I only started posting so much about the TV show because I'm ridiculously hyperfixated on it 😂 But I'm so thrilled it's having some sort of positive impact! Btw, the tag I'm using is #lis live action. Thank you again for such a kind ask!!

hihi pls drop ur lis fancast!! love ur posts btw💕
hihiiii thank youuu sometimes i feel like i was the only person ever who always believed in this tvshow lol (now im starting to get more skeptical sadly😔)
Since I’ve been manifesting this show for ages I do have fancasts that I thoroughly researched for… I even posted them on my tiktok and it got 100k views (mostly bc i chose people of color for some and people were angry lol)
I did this BEFORE Tatum and Maisy were announced ok? I also thought the tvshow would take more 3 years so I chose actors who are 18/19 years old, now we know they are looking for actors around 22.
So lets go, maybe this will be a big post? lol
if anyone wants to comment more about the LIS TVshow (focusing more on Nathan ofc) send me a dm, pleaseee, i’d love to hear your thoughts since I also have many... (And I also learned about some stuff I cant show here)
According to this website the Life is Strange TV Show will be recorded in Vancouver from June to October and will have 6 episodes… https://moviesr.net/p-life-is-strange-tv-series-gets-filming-dates-at-amazon
Created and written by Charlie Covell, the series follows a girl who has gained time rewinding powers and uses them to unite with the past.
The article also says casting is underway for Nathan, Victoria, Kate and Warren (also some other characters) and that we should expect to meet their actors in a few weeks…
Im very excited to meet their actors finally but I will say Im a little bummed it will only be 6 episodes… i kinda wanted them to expand the game and characters more…
How does it feel to know that Chloe is starring in a new game again (even though she's mentioned every second in Double Exposure) while they continue pretending that Kate, Warren, and all of Max's friends and classmates don't exist:
Max literally spent the entire first game worrying about and helping those people, using her powers to make their lives a little better and get closer to them (reinforced by Max herself in her nightmare)
It makes me so angry that in DE, when Max tells Safi about her choice, the highlight is always Chloe? Like, seriously?? It's a city with thousands of people (and that's enough for Max, who cared about all the lives, people and animals) Max lived with them for months, as there is no scene of her reinforcing how important those lives were to her or that she could never let them die (in the same way that Max talks about Chloe alive or dead)
If you truly believe that this isn't part of Max's soul, the game, or the franchise, then we really have nothing to talk about with each other
(Obviously this isn't hate to Chloe)
I know this is speculation, but that chick looks like she could be a good Kate tbh.
Ikr? She has such big doe eyes you already feel bad for everything she would go through 😭
and yeah nothing is confirmed its just nice to speculate stuff☺️

I’ve decided i wont gatekeep this so if turns out im wrong im sorry im just a very anxious person hahaha
I was scrolling through Tatum Grace Hopkins (Max’s actress) instagram and saw the following comment in one of her posts.
Shes a verified actress that worked on the movie Priscilla, could she be our Kate or Victoria (maybe even Rachel) on the tvshow?
(I want to point out she could also only be an actress who is a fan of the game and is excited for the tvshow just as much as we are lol)
guys i will flip the fuck out when they announce whos gonna play nathan victoria and warren on the tvshow i feel like i actually wont be able to survive the day that it happens i fear i will combust
Since im more active on tumblr now i wanted to promote my grahamscott fic i started back in october 😍 maybe youve seen it on ao3 already but if you like angst and pain maybe you will like it

Title: before we knew
synopsis: Nathan has been spiraling over the months. Filled with guilt and rage, he sees himself in a hole he can’t get out of. After the party where Kate is drugged, Warren and Max think of a plan to try to figure out what happened. With this, Warren decides to keep an eye on Nathan but what he sees makes him very concerned for the boy.
Victoria, Kate, and Warren nor any of the lis1 and even the lis2 characters not being in the game isnt really a big deal imo. Like I feel the point is theyre just classmates of Max and that theyre able to move on with their lives. In the texts you showed woth Warren I think that just means he moved on with his life even if ppl view it as unrealistic and a lot of ppl still dont consider the game to be canon bc D9 yknow?
There are ppl who keep in touch with their former friends and classmates and there are ppl who dont, and it kinda makes sense that Max doesnt keep in touch with both Kate and Warren especially Kate. Max saved Kate from taking her life, but that also doesnt guarentee them being close and bffs like everyone imagines. She was able to help Kate to live and thats kinda the point. Max is a very temporary person in the lives of others and that also sadly applies to DE and RE I think.
Okay I will be really honest here, I totally agree with you.
Being friends with someone in high school doesnt mean you stay friends forever, even though me personally do think she would stay in touch with Kate and Warren.
Thing is, Reunion is clearly fanservice for pricefield fans, because DE had already stablished that Max, as the temporary person she is like you said, also left Chloe and they broke up. So if pricefield can get a whole game about getting back together why cant we have a little text just showing shes still friends with characters some people care about from the first game? A little fanservice doesnt hurt anyone.
But tbh my main issue with it all is them making Max call him “that guy” when she couldve just said “what happened to him?” bc to me it dismisses even the friendship they had in the first game. But i dont fault Max at all, i just blame decknine bc my Max would never lol
okay im not on Warrens tag that much so I dont know how many people have seen this already but thats the only mention a teen character from lis1 got in reunion
And I have some thoughts:
Firstly I want to say how its funny Decknine makes Max not know what happened to him but Chloe knows? It literally makes no sense. Most and for all he and Max were friends, while he and Chloe were not. And referring to him as “that guy” is just brutal... (Also wtf happened to the social media feature Double Exposure had? Where we saw posts from Victoria and Kate?)
Secondly, I know Warren liked indie movies back in the days but cmon he would never become an indie film director??? Hes literally a science nerd… (d9 ripped him off to create Moses but then suddenly take this away from him? okay…)
Anyway this is a decknine hate account

Guys so…. If Max merged both Sacrifice Chloe and Sacrifice Bay realities and in the end of Reunion she doesnt unmerge them… does it mean no one from Lis 1 is really dead and everyone came back to life just like Chloe?
So everyone who died in the storm ending like Nathan, Warren, Joyce, everyone is alive in the end no matter what? Loool
The way decknine purposefully avoids mentioning any character from lis1 is soooo funny bc what do you mean both chloes remember being dead and neither wants to know if her killer is still in jail? She gets memories from both realities and no one wants to know if people from arcadia also feel it? Okay…
