Xaden Riorson is tall, dark, dangerous — and the fandom’s ultimate book boyfriend. But the big question is: who’s hot enough, broody enough, and badass enough to actually pull him off on screen?
We’ve pulled together four of the biggest fancast favorites right now:
Emilio Sakraya – Intense and magnetic, already giving serious Xaden energy.
Matthew Daddario – The classic fandom pick, with the broody presence nailed down.
Josh Heuston – Charismatic and sharp, with the perfect mix of charm and danger.
Charles Melton – Smoldering looks and the emotional depth to back it up.
Now it’s your turn to weigh in: who’s your dream Xaden? Vote below, and don’t hold back in the comments — if you’ve got another actor in mind, drop their name and we’ll include them in future poll-offs.
