"arthur will rise again"; bbc merlin genderswap {MVT}

HD, always HD.

For this round of the Magical Vidding Tournament, we had to make an AU (alternate univerise) video. I think I MAY have gone too au... A genderswap was a huge challenge for me, especially considering I'm not all that great with voiceovers, etc. The story remains the same; I focus on the lead up to the final series, Merlin's inability to stop Arthur's death, Merlin's relationship with Morgana, Merlin and Arthur's friendship, the alliance between Mordred and Morgana, and of course, the heartbreaking final scene of 5x13.


genderswap cast:
gemma arterton as merlin {hansel & gretel; prince of persia}
mia wasikowska as arthur {alice in wonderland}
blake ritson as morgana {da vinci's demons}
kristen stewart as mordred {snow white and the huntsman}
david wenham as guinevere {lord of the rings}

before anyone asks, I KNOW not all the characters appear! i'd have loved to included more, trust me. also, before anyone criticises me for being a racist because i didn't choose a person of colour for gwen (like angel coulby), I chose David Wenham on the basis on his portrayal of Faramir, someone who is kind, loyal and brave. I wanted to choose someone on the basis of how well they'd fit Gwen's personality, and not base it on race.
