    Agree but Refn was never gonna get those types anyway lol

    Charles melton is awesome though

    well he got ryan gosling repeatedly (it was fresh back then and gosling is great ofc) and elle fanning for neon demon so no it was definitely possible

    the "point" was exactly what i explained, which was i am happy to see a film from a filmmaker i like not have a star studded cast. not sure why this is difficult for you to wrap your head around.

    That's not really true. Ryan was a movie star from The Notebook. He had already been in Blue Valentine. He did Crazy Stupid Love the same year as Drive. He did The Place Beyond the Pines before he did Only God Forgives. And his own directorial debut is Refn adjacent.

    exactly lol, what are these people talking about. gosling was already nearly or outright an A lister by drive.

    either way it literally doesn't matter because whether refn had previously cast A listers or not had literally nothing to do with the point of my post, which was me generally being happy to see not yet another cast ruined by the usual suspects.

    no, and i hadn't heard of it 'til now. i generally don't watch new tv series much anymore, especially not netflix originals, and i don't pay for any streaming services, but i will definitely need to grab this based on a cursory search, thanks

    Refn's TV shows are basically just movies. Too Old to Die Young and Copenhagen Cowboy. Can't believe they let him make them. Slow cinema core

    I’ve been out on Refn for some time now but the cast really intrigues me

    meh he was certainly still making his name although I forgot how much of heart throb he was at one point, his coming to the fore definitely followed drive imo

    I get the vibes he wanted Ryan to see more mainstream success and be happy . Same as Elle fanning
