Hello Queens!
I’m back with another fancast of mine to share of what is probably the book of the summer: Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros!
You are viewing: Who Would Play Xaden Riorson
I’d known about this book way before it was released, but WOW it is actually insane to see how much this book has blown up since it’s release date on May 2nd. It’s literally blown up the bookish community and taken over, and it’s got so many people talking! We loves to see it (mostly)
The story is about a girl named Violet Sorrengail, who’s off to war college! This war has been going on for over 600 years, and there are four quadrants one can go into for the cause: flyers, scribes, healers, and infantry. As someone with a chronic illness, she’s been under the impression she’d become a scribe like her long lost father, BUT her mother is the general and surprises her when she’s actually sent off to become a flyer! And to make matters worse, the son of the rebel leader her mother executed is one of the first people she runs into there as well…
Obsessed. I am obsessed with this book like so many others!

Violet Sorrengail: Sophi Knight
Sophi Knight is exactly how I pictured our FMC of this book series. She’s a young Canadian actress who’s so close to the actual age of the character, but she is 5’7” so maybe a little taller than Violet, but I stand by this choice!
~~~
Mira Sorrengail: Phoebe Tonkin, or Lyndsy Fonseca
Both of these actresses are pretty recognizable I’d say, we know Phoebe of course from “The Vampire Diaries” and “The Originals” and Lyndsy has been in so many shows like “Kick-Ass,” and a list of CW/Free form shows too! They’d make a great older sister in Mira in my opinion.
~~~
General Lilith Sorrengail: Michelle Fairley
Whoever plays General Sorrengail has be cold, ruthless, and have a resting bitch face that shakes you to your core. Michelle can for sure do just that. She’s played powerful women before as Catelyn Stark in “Game of Thrones” and even recently was in Queen Charlotte’s special off “Bridgerton.”
~~~
Rhiannon: Keke Palmer
Gotta give this character to my girl Keke Palmer, I would absolutely love to see her as Violet’s bestie and fellow dragon rider!
~~~
Ridoc: Tyler Posey
I don’t remember a whole lot of Ridoc’s looks being described, but I’ve seen some fanart of him, and it seems people are viewing him has Hispanic/Latino. I’m all for it! He’s kind of the comedic relief of the friend group, so I picture Tyler Posey, who also gives off the jokester vibes, as this side character. This choice could change as the series moves forward and we get more about him, just to be warned!
~~~
Jack Barlowe: Alexander Ludwig
Alright when we met the psychopath Jack in this book, I was having total flashbacks to “The Hunger Games” and pictured Alexander as him. I couldn’t help myself, and it’s didn’t help that Jack was described as blonde 🤷🏼♂️
~~~
Xaden Riorson: Flamur Ukshini
Xaden has been confirmed by Rebecca Yarros herself that Xaden is POC, and so I pictured this gorgeous guy I’ve been following on Instagram for some time now! He just needs to maybe pack on a little more muscle, but hey, Taylor Launter did it for Twilight!
~~~
Dain Aetos: Leo Suter
This guy is the singular reason why I want to watch that Vikings: Valhalla show…I mean, LOOK at him! And as a grizzly, hairy Viking warrior?! *swoon* he also seemed to fit the character of Dain when he’s all cleaned up, like in this pic.
~~~
Amber: Sydney Zmrzl
This one could honestly be anyone, Amber was a very minor character. So honestly this could come down to just personal preference.
Liam: Chris Bednarik, or Leo Woodall
Alright, I would be TOTALLY fine with either of these cute guys playing Liam, and yes, I made sure they both have the dimples too. That was like a requirement! Chris is a fitness model, and Leo was actually in season 2 of “The White Lotus”
~~~
Imogen: Cheree Crowley

I always have at least one WWE person in my fancasts because WHY NOT? When I got the description of Imogen having pink hair, it reminded me when Cheree (aka “Dakota Kai”) had a similar hairstyle as well!
~~~
Garrick: Douglas Booth
Honestly, I don’t really think there were any physical descriptions revealed about Garrick from what I remember….I could be wrong. BUT hopefully we get more in the next book! Expect this to be updated whenever possible if needed!
~~~
Bodhi: Zayn Malik
The guy I picked for Xaden kind of looks like Zayn, and since Xaden and Bodhi are actually related, I thought this made sense! I mean, Harry Styles is trying to be an actor…why not Zayn too?
~~~
Tairn (Voice): Chris Hemsworth
If not Liam Neeson, Chris would be an excellent voice actor choice for Tairn! I just imagine him with his deep, booming Thor voice would do wonderfully at this!
~~~
Sgaeyl (Voice): Charlize Theron
Imma give credit to my friend Kat for this pick, and when she suggested it I was immediately like YES. Charlize has such a sexy voice, I remember how she did a crazy good job as the evil queen in “Snow White and the Huntsman” (or literally anything she does), and thought she’d make an excellent voice actor for a dragon like Sgaeyl as well!
~~~
Andarna: (Voice): Mandy Moore
Picking a voice for Andarna was difficult….would you pick an actual child to voice her? I was wondering Ariana Grande for a hot second, but nawww. I love Ari, but she wasn’t who I imagined Andarna sounding like. Then it hit me: TANGLED! Mandy Moore did such a great job as Rapunzel, I think she’d also make a great choice to voice Andarna!
~~~
So there you have it for now! Expect more characters and fancast choices to be added as the series develops because this was only book 1 of 5!
Thanks for Reading!
