Never knew.

You are right about Pitchwife. Actually, the guy is so talented that he can play pretty much any role. I personally prefer him when he is over the top English, with a yard long stiff upper lip: "Jeeves" in P.G. Woodhouse' "Jeeves and Whooster" or General Melchet in "Blackadder goes forth"

I only ever imagined one person as Havelock.



Image

As for Eremis, we are going for atypical sexiness right?

Image

Only one person in the world can play the Tor.

Image

Here's a thought for Joyce. I know he hasn't been in a decent movie in a *long* time, but he's still got huge talent. It's also a great idea to cast someone who *always* plays a villian in this kind of role.

Great choice in MacDowell! I've always pictured the large Marlo Brando as the Tor.

Yeah, I forgot about Mcdowel's eyes. Absolutely perfect for Joyce.

The Amigrite always seemed like a cross of Emo Phillips and Edward Scissorshands to me. :D

THIS guy, Christopher Meloni, is Eremis. Seriously, it's the best casting choice in the history of casting choices!

He's got the forehead, at least. :) But I also like the cocky/mischievous expression.

Of course that only means one actress casting choice for Terisa:

His costar, Mariska Hargitay....

Charlie Cox-this guy? Melloni is a very interesting choice-Mariska is too tough and sure of herself-would make a great First of the Search though...

I don't know.. If Stephen Fry was Emeris, you could tell that Emeris was the bad guy as soon as he came on screen..

Good call! Not only does he have the body, but also a voice to match.

As for Terisa, I can't get the image of Amy Acker or Alison Lohman out of my head.

Meloni as Eremis. Great suggestion.

And since I'm a big fan of "Rome" I would suggest Zuhleika Robinson (Gaia) as Saddith and Karl Johnson (Cato) as Havelock.

Now she would have been perfect for Saddith, back in the day:

Mariska is too much for Terisa but I too love Christopher Meloni for Eremis. He can play good, bad and ugly and I know this because I love him in Law and Order, SVU but have also seen him in several LTW movies and he was awesome as "Freakshow" in "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle"

Ok, having trouble finding a usable image, but what about Christina Hendricks for Saddith, she played Mal's wife in the Firefly series by Josh Whedon. I think she would be perfect. Ok, having trouble linking any image as well, go to imdb.com and search her.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

I find this image very .... usable. (And I agree.)
