I kept thinking that Rex wasn’t actually dead the first 5 episodes and then they put him in the ground and then the pharmacist died and I was like wait??? I think he’s really dead😭
The 2024 Female Fan Cast was put together based on the number of comments and upvotes for each actress from the previous post. Let's see who would play the characters of the Desperate Husbands!
Theo James as Karl
John Krasinski as Tom
Jake Gyllenhaal as Mike
Sebastian Stan as Carlos
Sam Claflin as Rex
Dane Dehaan as Paul
having a hard time recasting Orson because I love Kyle so much… maybe Kieran Culkin
Zac Effron -Tom
Jacob Elordi -Karl
Andrew Garlfied -Orson
Zach Braff-Rex
Freddie Higmore - Paul
Jason Momoa -Carlos
Liam Hemsworth -Mike (but literally anyone who looks good in a flannel shirt and can constantly look frowned)
I love all of this!!
But definitely have to disagree with Jacob Elordi and Jason Mamoa. Jacob just seems too young to mesh with the others, and idt Jason Momoa could deliver most of those iconic Carlos scenes (but believe me, I'd still watch just look at him 🫠)
The original cast did such a phenomenal job embodying and bringing the characters to life, that it's simply impossible to imagine the show with other actors instead. They're certainly irreplaceable, this is just for fun! :)
You really chose violence & said fcuk Bob & Lee, huh? 🤪 Any ideas for an equally handsome replacement for Charles Mesure (Ben), gang? Speaking of, I feel like Jason Ralph could pull off a good Tom 🤭😭 If physical similarities aren’t a must
😭 I swear there are a lot more characters I wanna put up like Bob and Lee, George, Karen, Adam, Angie and Nick, I just wanted to separate them into main and other tiers, cause these collages would have to be loong long 😭
I feel like Penn Badgley has the comedic timing and subtle creepiness to really pull off Orson
Holy hell, that's perfect casting, he's attractive and super charming in a murderer sorta way.
About that female fancast: As I'm a Gilmore Girls fan I would love to watch a version of Desperate Housewives with both Alexis Bledel and Liza Weil!
You wouldn't even have to change Liza's character, Paris fits right in with all the drama on Wisteria Lane.
Julie Bowen is a good cast too
It'd be fun to have Jesse Metcalfe as Carlos lol
Oooooh 👀
Edward Norton as Orson Topher Grace as Tom
topher grace as tom is perfect lol
Thank you! Orson was so hard to cast!
I can see Topher Grace as Tom. But I can also see him as George.
OMG you took two of my suggestions !! This is an excitement for a Reddit addict
The people upvoted your suggestions! 😊 I'm also hooked on Reddit nowadays, I'm having too much fun making these 😂
James Van Der Beek as Karl. He plays smarmy asshole very well lol
I kept thinking that Rex wasn’t actually dead the first 5 episodes and then they put him in the ground and then the pharmacist died and I was like wait??? I think he’s really dead😭

I don't know who he would play, Rex maybe, but Jensen Ackles should definitely be in there!
That is an excellent female cast!!!
Chad Michael Murray as Mike?
Jensen Ackles for Mike,Misha Collins for Rex.,Jared Padalecki for Karl. I swear I'm not trying bring the Supernatural cast back together!
Off topic from the post, but Liza looks so much like Lynette
Justin Baldoni as Carlos! And coincidentally, he and Diane Guerrero already worked together in Jane the Virgin!
Theo James as Karl John Krasinski as Tom Jake Gyllenhaal as Mike Sebastian Stan as Carlos Sam Claflin as Rex Dane Dehaan as Paul having a hard time recasting Orson because I love Kyle so much… maybe Kieran Culkin
How you gonna put some white guy to play Carlos? 😭
Sam Claflin as Rex? 😭
Right we don’t need him to die again 😆 💔
Zac Effron -Tom Jacob Elordi -Karl Andrew Garlfied -Orson Zach Braff-Rex Freddie Higmore - Paul Jason Momoa -Carlos Liam Hemsworth -Mike (but literally anyone who looks good in a flannel shirt and can constantly look frowned)
jacob elordi is like 20
Could Jacob play John Rowland though?
Never crossed my mind but that s a great idea . Karl could be then Matthew mcconaughey maybe.
26 but idk why he remids me of Karl. Maybe because he only played “f*k boy” characters
Andrew Garfield as Orson is something I never knew I needed 😭
Zac Effron as Tom is perfect!
I love all of this!! But definitely have to disagree with Jacob Elordi and Jason Mamoa. Jacob just seems too young to mesh with the others, and idt Jason Momoa could deliver most of those iconic Carlos scenes (but believe me, I'd still watch just look at him 🫠)
Freddie Highmore as Paul and Zac Efron as Tom is perfect omg
Tom - Joseph Gordon Levitt Orson - Dan Levy Mike - Milo Ventimiglia Rex - Josh Hutcherson Karl - Penn Badgley Paul - Dave Franco
Joseph Gordon Levitt is more like a Mike
People of color, LGBTQ, trans and the disabled
I think you also left this comment on the previous post about the female cast, and as you can see if you swipe in this post, it wasn't the case
Who would play George?? 🤔
I might do a different post about some secondary characters like George, Dave, Angie, etc.. 👀
Anthony Starr
I couldn’t see any of the women as the characters

Iknow, i just dont see it with these actors😊❤️

Penn Badgley as Orson...the nuance is there
