Oh! This question is fun!!!???greenstripedgiraffe wrote:Who would play Charlie? Looking for someone who could be timid, but yet bold, could look sort of "normal." What else should describe who would play Charlie (or any of the other characters)?
Charlie - Natalie Dormer or Meghann Fahy
Sheila - Jennifer Aniston
Doug -
Scott -
Asa -
Amos -
Martha -
Oooh! Johnny Depp, yes!!! I can see him as Asa for sure!hsimone wrote:Great question! I am terrible with actors'/actresses' names, but for Asa, maybe Johnny Depp? He has that crazed-look (and sometimes creepy) about him, but can be attractive as well. And even though there are evil parts to Asa, there is still that conflict of him being not so bad and not really wanting to continue to hurt people. I think having someone who is known to be a bit out there, but well-liked will help the conflict people feel towards Asa.

Thank you! Glad it wasn't too far-fetched!greenstripedgiraffe wrote:definitely johnny depp- hadn't thought of him, but that's a good call!hsimone wrote:Great question!

Those two would be great for Asa & Martha had they lived to be older, they were in their 30s when they died. ?gali wrote:I think Jack Nicholson would be perfect as Asa. Maybe Kathy Bates as Martha?
Indeed, but otherwise...Janetleighgreen wrote:Those two would be great for Asa & Martha had they lived to be older, but remember, they died pretty young. They were in their early 30s, late 20s...gali wrote:I think Jack Nicholson would be perfect as Asa. Maybe Kathy Bates as Martha?
Agreed. I had to amend this response because I thought about Amos' being so much younger than Martha. They would've had to have been in their 30s.
