Needs work but we are talking to people's people.
Director - Ron Howard
Cast
Philip Banks - Patrick Stewart (Bald Englishman with Yorkshire roots)
Liz De Nesnera - Cate Blanchett
Bob Souer - John Goodman
Mandy Nelson - Suranne Jones
Pam Tierney - Teri Hatcher
Larissa Gallagher - Nicole Kidman
Julia Knippen - Hilary Swank
Melissa Exelberth - Kristin Scott Thomas
Connie Terwilliger - Dame Judi Dench
Trish Basanyi - Sasha Alexander
Fran McClellan - Jodie Foster
Peter Bishop - Tim Spall
Natalie Stanfield Thomas - Anyone with ADD
Mike Rhys - Alan Rickman
Martha Mellinger - Marina Sirtis
Heather Costa - Cote de Pablo
Lee Gordon - John Heard
Linda Scott - Lyndsay Lohan
Monk Schane Lydon - Jonathan Frakes
Don Goonan - Michael Gambon
Chris Vournazos - David Morse
Most are logical casting choices based more on the ability of the actor but in some cases the potential to "look a little like" or encapsulate the spirit of their character has been taken into account.
Changes? Other characters and by whom they should be played? |

When I saw Timothy Spall I really did smile. I have always followed his career and consider him quite wonderful.
Of course, while thinking of "Life is Sweet" (a marvelous film which more people should see), it made me wonder if the direction would be handled better by someone with a slightly different view on life... Mike Leigh (while not having the box-office pull of the fine Mr.Howard) would explore the interesting underbelly of huttie-dwelling voiceoverists in a unique and captivating way.
one addition maybe...

Artistic license allows us to flesh out the cast and bring in people from the LA lunch in addition to others from our VO world.
A director who is able to make electricity using only people is required to make this work. The least interesting thing about all of us is what we do to make a living. The life changing power of our imagination will always be our USP.

As I've done a bit of TV and film I guess I could play myself. But I've also thought Brian Dennehy in his Silverado days would have been just fine.

Paul would be great. He'd make everyone enter 9 times until they entered HIS way. Your silent entrance would be made silently with an air of anticipation. Nothing to say yet you'd look as if the secrets of the universe are dancing on your lips ready to explode skywards and cry out their confessions beyond the clouds unto the bosom of the stars.
Paul - "Do you have a reservation, sir"
You - "Do I LOOK like an Apache Chief?"

I'm flattered. But doubtful that Michael Gambon would be.  |
