Casting Call

Shanglan would be Vincent Kartheiser with the long floppy hair he had in Angel Season 4. Nicely androgynous.

Yeah, but who's going to play you? btw, Mary McDonnell is hot, but she's two years younger than my mom. :D

Nicole de Boer (Cube) would have made a superb Chani

I love her to bits, and she was in my favourite Outer Limits episode ever, but she's nothing like the Chani in my mind. lol :D
 
My list

Honey - Jessica Alba
Tatelou - Amy Acker (although I've heard a comparison to Nigella Lawson recently, which was intriguing)
RhinoGuy - Oliver Platt
The Fool - Jack Black

I have an image of Chani in my mind ... but cannot think of an actress who matches it.

LOL - I'd make a few changes. Lauren is much more Kiera Knightly, Carson is much more NOT Maththew Perry, Colly not Goldie, Honey not Cameron. LOL. I will think on this :D ROFLOL too ... :cool: I see Lou's quirkiness and penchant for the bizarre in Angelina, though! LOL

Fool? JACK BLACK?! I always imagine a more Marlon Brando'esque in the late 60's and early 70's. I see him saying "I'll give you an offer you can't refuse." :D

Who would you "want" to play you?

Oh, that girl from Rabbit-Proof Fence, but with blue contact lenses (obviously). 14 years-old. Even less politically correct. lol.
 
Lauren Hynde said:
:eek: Eek! Nothing like me at all, and 15 years older. lol. I'd still stick with Milla Jovovich. :D

An example of who you would WANT to play you. :D

Exactly the same as me with the Baron. I can tell you exactly who he is, but I have never found and actor who matches my idea of him. It's not so much about the looks as they'd probably be in a fat suit (the film version of the Baron that I've seen were waaay too slender. He's supposed to be incapable of walking unassisted!), but more about the voice and the way they treated the lines.

I've mentally directed and filmed the first conversation with Piter de Vries (another one who I know and whom I haven't found the actor for) and Feyd Rautha (possibly Vincent Kartheiser, or someone who looks like a 15 y/o Christian Bale) a thousand times. The images of that scene - the corpulescent hand spinning the globe, while the figure is hidden in shadow, the glinting rings on the fat fingers and the rumbling basso of a voice that is sepulchral, yet smooth and confident. My Baron's got to be able to say the lines perfectly. If he can do that, then he can look like a small Pekinese for all I care.

Not familiar with that.

My image is Eastern Indian/Middle Eastern. Tall. Poised. Thin. Stern countenance which totally transforms when she smiles (rarely). Full lips, though (which seems at odds).

I don't know. Let's have some suggestions from our studio audience - who'd you think could play me?

It was the hair. :eek:

There just aren't many large breasted redheads my age in show business. :(

Hmm, I don't know about Matthew Perry as Carson. If Ewen Mc Gregor was a farm boy... ;)

Ah - you've got a different Chani to me. Mine is a waif, slender, willowy and a face that has lots of cheekbone and eyes. A definite product of living without water in a harsh climate, but with a strange beauty. Someone delicate, but with the inner core of steel, which she can bring to the surface.

That's why I leapt at Nicole De Boer's depiction of Leaven in Cube.

Just out of interest - is yours "Chahh-ni" or "Chay-ni"? Mine is always Chahh-ni, just like my villains are Harkonnen over Harkonnen and my heros are Atree-dese, rather than Atray-dese. I think that's another reason why I don't like the films; no matter what the author's intention, I know that my pronounciation is correct and I'm not impressed to find out that contradict me and say Lay-toe, instead of Lee-toe.
