If they were to make a Helldivers movie, what are the essential armors that should be featured? I envision different squads on various planets showcasing their unique armors. For instance, on swamp planets, we could have Viper Commandos and Freedom’s Flame drip. In winter settings, the Polar Patriots would be a must! Also, we definitely need to represent Borderline Justice and Truth Enforcers, which I’m a tad biased towards. It would be incredible to see these suits portrayed accurately along with their perks. Plus, wouldn’t it be hilarious if they start off like in ‘The Other Guys’ with big names like Keanu or Chris Hemsworth, only to get killed off early and replaced by someone unexpected like Michael Cera?

How about a setup focusing on three rookie divers on different missions – facing bugs, bots, and squids? Each would start with well-known actors who get killed off quickly while the rookies keep progressing. It would culminate in a final mission where they dive with John Helldiver himself! Or maybe focus on bots to differentiate from that new Starship Troopers remake. It could add depth to the story!
I feel like they should cast lesser-known actors who are under 30 for the main roles. They can act well while wearing helmets, and honestly, the Helldivers brand alone is enough to draw an audience. Besides, I’d love to see the Polar Patriots featured on ice worlds, matching the environment perfectly!
And if they keep the helmets on most of the time, they can use the same few actors over and over!
Totally agree! We don’t need big-name actors who might not give their all; the humor comes from the situations rather than star power.
For me, main characters should represent the standard armor, while other divers they encounter have armor that reflects their unique biomes and factions. It’d be cool to see how each group operates in their own element!
Exactly! Seeing the standard Helldivers interact with the various factions would show the diversity and strategy involved in the game.
Would be awesome to get some big-name actors just to have them die off soon after they get out of the hellpod. It sets a fun tone and surprises the audience right away!
Love that idea! Imagine the chaos of each rookie trying to navigate their missions, and then they all team up for an epic finale!
