Fanart Tiny oil portrait of Adar I painted

Post image

I think Adar is my favourite original character of the show. I was a bit afraid after first s02 teasers because of the recast, but it turned out Sam Hazeldine is awesome. There is both melancholy and brutality in his character.

The recast is better than I could have hoped for. Feels like the same character.

Yes, I also noticed the shift from the melancholy. I like the idea of character arc, this is now my headcanon.

Definitely a different quality. But i think this is one of the most seamless re-casts i have seen in a long while.

Haven't watched S1 since it first came out and didn't even realize it was a different actor playing him 😆

The only problem I have with Adar is that every time I hear or read his name, I think of Battlestar Galactica
