Movies From An Alternate Timeline
What if well-known modern movies had been made 20, 30, or 50 years earlier? Who would star in those films? How would they be different? The wonderfully creative Peter Stults (via Behance.net) designed a set of movie posters with these questions in mind, having James Dean star in place of Ryan Gosling in Drive and John Wayne as the Man of Steel.
Check out some of his creations below:

I can get behind the Inception one> The choice for the actors and the director is pretty boss.
I wish I knew who they were
Favourites have to be the Inception and Drive ones. Excellent designs and looks like both could have happened.
Ya the Drive one is excellent!
Those are brilliant. Too bad the films would be that much worse with all of the old-school trappings.
Some of them would work I think. Drive for example could have happened 40 years ago, the movie is quite old-fashioned actually.
wow…cool!! Drive could really work
Indeed, that’s what I’m saying
This is outstanding!! Kudos for having Frank Zappa star in “The Big Lebowski” and having Ken Russell direct it! I am a huge FZ fan!
Also love the cast for “infeption”. Bela Lugosi rules!
Ahaha yea the casting sounds awesome although the poster does look a bit shoddy with the disproportionate size of the heads.
wow. these took some time and imagination! thanks for sharing these Castor!
Glad you enjoyed T
Nice find, those look really cool! Christopher Walken as T-1000 LOL!
More terrifying than the original one!
These are so awesome. Love the Drive and Hangover ones especially.
Ahah love that he has Muhammad Ali instead of Mike Tyson in there
“The Big Lebowski” one is my favorite. I can dig James Dean as the Driver in “Drive”.
Those are cool looking posters but seriously that dude has too much time on his hands.
I saw these at work and had to put my hand over my mouth to stop from dying of laughter at the “Introducing Tom Cruise as Mysterious Baby” image.
It’s amazing how natural Yul Brynner looks as a blue alien.
That is some seriously impressive photoshop work (I’m assuming that’s how he did all of these; hand-drawing them would’ve taken considerably more time). The attention to detail is amazing, from the rumpled backgrounds to the era-specific fonts to the 60′s-era duotone processing to the 50′s-era drawings… If you were going to build something like this in Photoshop, you’d have an insane amount of layers and effects applied.
Oh my god, this is amazing. I’m just gonna repeat what others have already said, but I can’t get over the attention to detail. What an impressive amount of work this must have taken.
Oh wow, these are incredible! Peter is very, very talented. I think the Drive poster is my favourite – I could definitely see James Dean in the lead role.
