2. Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep: Michiel Huisman

Michiel Huisman, the extremely hot guy who replaced the original actor for Daario Naharis in Game of Thrones, could be an excellent choice for the role of Gale. Huisman's portrayal of characters in fantasy dramas like Game of Thrones and The Haunting of Hill House demonstrates his ability to bring texture to roles that require a blend of charisma and emotional depth. As Gale, a knowledgeable wizard burdened with a dangerous and powerful secret, Huisman could use his experience playing characters who are charming yet haunted by their past. His performances often convey a sense of intelligence and introspection, qualities essential for Gale, who is not just a spellcaster but also a thinker and philosopher. And cute.

Huisman's characters often have a subtle intensity and a persuasive charm, things that perfectly fit Gale. In Game of Thrones, his Daario Naharis was both a formidable warrior and a charismatic lover, balancing physical, uhh, skills, with a sharp wit. This balance is crucial for Gale, who must be believable as both a formidable wizard and a compelling companion to the other characters.

TL;DR: Huisman's experience in portraying layered characters in high-stakes, fantastical settings would allow him to give a rich and memorable portrayal of Gale.
