For everyone who believes that Tom Cruise was miscast as Lestat (even though he did better than I thought he would), this is your place. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, go read the book. This is where we will fantasy cast books that have already been made into movies, and books that may or may not ever become movies. Whether they should or not is a whole other blog. And it's someone else's.


Some guidelines for posters:

  • Cast anyone famous or infamous, celebrity or celebutante, sublime or ridiculous. Just don't cast your cousin or your best friend. The rest of us have to be able to visualize your choice.
  • It would help to give a brief synopsis of the book, to put the character in context.
  • Your choice can be living or not, as in "I think Abraham Lincoln could totally pull off playing Gandalf."
  • Your choice can be from any era and any age. "A young Shirley Temple would have rocked as Petra from Ender's Game."
