felinestevens Wrote:(H)ere's my cast in my own mind...
Jack... Thomas Jane
Abe... Judd Hirsch
Gia... Gwyneth Paltrow or Claire Danes
Kusim Bhakti... Pedro Altamirano (He played in Collateral Damage with Schwarzenegger...)
The Rakoshi... Andy Serkis in CGI
Welcome, fellow Canadian and newbie, to the board!
Andy Serkis! Brilliant! That's one of the reasons that I like PJ or Del Toro to direct
Repairman Jack I: Claws of the Rakoshi...since they (will) have already worked with Serkis (OK, so I dream in technicolor).
Judd Hirsch. As I've said in another thread, he'd be my first choice if only he was young enough to still be alive for the (hopefully) inevitable sequels.
[REVISED from previously posted repsonse. New text in italics]
Thomas Jane. Liked everything he's ever done (even
The Sweetest Thing)
He'd be great but he'd have to dye his hair brown...it's way too blonde to pass the continuity test as Jack. [spoiler]...but it might confuse the kiddies when The Punisher starts running around fighting the Otherness.
This section blacked out because Wapitikev did not know that TJ was NOT in Punisher2 when he originally typed it. BAD! BAD Wapitikev! [slaps own hand] My humblest apologies to Felinestevens.[/spoiler] I'm looking forward to
The Mist and
The Mutant Chronicles.
[Revision ends]
Pedro Altamirano. I'll have to find a picture of him...I'll accept almost anyone other than Kal Penn.
Gwyneth or Claire. Both are to whiney for me (we're not doing Shakespeare, either) and niether looks Italian. I'll stick with my favorite front-runners, Charlize Theron or Kate Winslet.
Yes, the RJ books are excellent, how did you like the three short stories?
