Think…Eric Bana’s Hector…as Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth 🧐🫣🤌🏻❤️‍🔥

Hector but make it Medieval.

Expect some kind of art on this theme in the near-ish future, via my @g-m-kaye account 🫠 I am thinking…about this.

Context? I am simultaneously knee deep in a Troy (2004) Hector jag, re-reading the Iliad and re-reading TROTK: just got to the part where Prince Imrahil not only leads Gondor’s forces against the enemy at Pelennor because the House of the Stewards is in disarray (aka Denethor is a twat) … but he also saves Eowyn’s life by being the only badass in the room to actually notice she’s still breathing when they cart her and Theoden off on biers.

My Lord Imrahil has that honourable-Prince-who-gets-shit-done-and-is-unreasonably-handsome vibe going on. Just like a certain Trojan Prince I happen to adore with all my heart 😭

Just saying.

#yes #he fits perfectly here #although i also used to imagine he could also be a good Boromir #i love sean's. wouldn't change him #but there are so many paralels between hector and boromir #last hope in a city that feels doomed #after their deaths their fathers take bad choice after bad choice #eldest sons #most beloved heroic figure of their countrymen #and the realistic pragmatism in eric's version brings him even closer to boromir #more than want him as Boromir i wish he could have been friends with Boromir lol #but would love to see him in middle earth in any way #and imrahil is a great choice
