Red Dead Redemption II, much like its predecessor, is a game that's held in very high regard for its compelling storyline and overarching plot, its complex and well developed characters, and immersive themes of honour, justice, brotherhood, betrayal, lies and manipulation, passing of the times, the futility of trying to preserve a dying era, learning to accept the inevitability of change, forging one's one path in path in life and well, redemption! It's a game that I've always found particularly interesting, and like a lot of games of a similar vein to it, I, and I'm sure a lot of others, think it provides a lot of great material that's perfect to build a hypothetical TV series adaptation off of. So here's who I'd cast as the famous, and infamous characters of a live action TV series of this cult classic game!
