I know. 

The thing is Ellen didn't go out saying bad things about ND or that she hated being ripped off. Someone came up to her and asked her opinion and she simply said it wasn't appreciated. They asked, then paid Ellen for her likeness to be in Beyond two souls than some other company does the same thing without permission.
example 1:
On Deviant art there are plenty of people who would have no problem letting someone use their pictures as references when asked. The thing they have a problem with is the no permission.
example 2:
You have no problem lending someone a buck when they ask, But if someone goes into my wallet and takes it than it's a different story.

Just so you know you do not need to be in movies to be an actor. There is plenty of actors everry single day trying to make it and you know very little about this as your posts clearly shows. One of the first things you learn as an actor is you are a product that you are trying to sell. This includes voice, face, and your craft. I know of one person on this site who has had great discussions with me who is typecasted because of a specific look she has. Your looks and your voice and the roles you play coincides. Coming from a person who takes acting seriously I am disapointed in the behavior of this thread. Acting is much more than moving around in front of a camera and it takes great work and passion to portray the truth while maintaining an interesting aspect. I can't express enough that it is a 24/7 job and plays a lot with your emotions so show a little respect. |
Thank you Jay, you put a more eloquent spin on the reply I'd have given.
To answer the question, I'm a stage actor first and foremost as I love live performance. Musical theatre is my preference although I also enjoy comedy and some Shakespeare occasionally. I'd consider film in the future but its a different set of skills and a lot more subtle acting style. As Jay said, as an actor you are selling yourself for work. A lot of success comes from having a unique image, that is what makes you valuable. This instance is hardly likely to damage her image but that's not the point.
OP should just update the original post with all of NDs offenses and I doubt that anyone would be naive enough to think that Ellie wasn't modeled after Ellen Page. I know I've mentioned it multiple times in this thread, but Ellie = Ellen Page, Nathan Drake = Nathan Fillion. Their Names and likeness are both the same. How could a coincidence like this happen twice? The answer is, it's not a coincidence. It was completely intentional.

Katherine Marlow = Helen Mirren
Yup, completely. Do you really think Naughty Dog lacks that much imagination? When you're making computer generated characters, they're bound to look like someone. Who are they going to make characters look like? Phil the intern? No, they're going to draw off of real people.
"So what does this character look like?"
"Snarky smirk, good hair, generally handsome fellow, kind of like Nathon Fillon"
"Okay, let's mock up Nathan Fillon and make some adjustments."
"Yuppers."
Move cheekbones, change the nose a little, tweak this, tweak that...the bottom line is they're not just going to go in the Naughty Dog bag of random ears, noses, eyes, and mouths and hope something good comes out on the other side. Of course they're going to model it after something that exists.
Ellen Page looks like about a billion chicks. Generic features, brunette, pretty, but nothing that knocks you on your ass. Does Ellie look incredibly like Ellen Page? Absolutely. Is that because Ellen Page also looks like a billion other chicks? Yes.
Why is this thread still going?
I don't know who she is but naughty dog ripped her off....
Just .pay the woman and acknowledge that it's her naughty dog

In the real world there are people that look alike. Video games are no exception.

The funny thing is you can pick most human video game characters and find someone who looks like them ,the only reason this ones getting air is the timeline.
Research shows Video games help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot
