Expanded per that related trope's TRS


A sister trope of AscendedFanon. This is more common in the LiveActionAdaptation than in the AnimatedAdaptation (unless it utilizes InkSuitActor or the fancast was for their voice). Contrast DarkhorseCasting, when an unknown actor is cast for a major part. Compare and contrast HypotheticalCasting, which is when a ''creator'' visualizes a character through an existing performer regardless of whether or not they'll ever be cast, or whether or not the fans agree. When the creator of the original work gets their choice, that's CreatorChosenCasting.
