WHAT IF? ALPHA FLIGHT THE MOVIE.

[Banshee]

In my ideal world there would be a great Alpha movie. I have posted a poster in the fan art section of my ideal cast(It is c*ap, but I'm a medic not an artist!!).

When I read Alpha I picture certain characters as certain actors. In my movie, it opens with Alpha fighting Tundra, and then closely mirrors issues 2-4 of Volume 1(sans Sue Richards and Namor).

My ideal cast are/is:

James McDonald Hudson: Clive Owen(Children of Men, Bent).
Heather McNeill: Nicole Kidman(you name it, she's played it!)
Puck:Peter Dinklage(station agent).
Jeanne Marie:Audrey Tatou(Amelie, The Da Vinci Code)
Northstar: Orlando Bloom(LOTR)
Sasquatch:James Denton(Desperate Housewifes)
Snowbird:Laura Linney(Ideal, check out ethereal look on fan art poster)

The Master could be Stanley Tucci, Marrina could be Winona Ryder and in a second movie I would introduce:

Deadly Ernest: Robbie Coltrane(Harry Potter, Cracker).
Gilded Lily: Tilda Swinton(Narnia).
Talisman:Kristin Kreuk(Smallville)

I know the poster is s**t, but check it out. Anyone else got an ideal cast or plot for a world you could make the movie in??

Cool! Thanks. Prefer my casting!!

[Transmetropolitan]

Of course you do. As I prefer my own choices.

For example, Nicole Kidman is far (as in light years) from the way I picture Heather.

Clive Owen rocks in all permutations, and could probably give Mac some much-needed character depth.

Audrey Tatou as Aurora? Eh. She's a wee bit too Audrey Hepburnish to carry the role, IMO.

Orlando Bloom as Northstar- I'd prefer someone who can actually act.

To each their own!! I love to see others views on their ideal cast though. Audrey in my opinion has the ability and the look. Orlando(ouch!). But I know what you mean. Famke Jansen wasn't how I pictured Jean Grey, but by X3, she was Jean Grey for me.

Audrey Tatou is a good choice, but personnally frenchman can't do the quebecer accent.

Personnally there is a very good pool of actors in the province that could do the job so well. It's just they are not famous internationally. If I try international Quebecers, well there is Marie-Josée Croze. She got the eyes, darker her hair and that will do. She's a very good actress, won best actress in Cannes for "Les invasions barbares".



or maybe Caroline Dhavernas, maybe a little bit young




I could say Roy Dupuis, he got the eyes, but the rest don't fit and most of all the 2 actors that play Northstar and Aurora got to look alike.

to go with Dhavernas, what about marc-André Grondin? without the beard

[Banshee]

Wow! She is an uncanny Aurora look alike!!

[syvalois]

Wow! She is an uncanny Aurora look alike!!

which one? Marie-Josée Croze?

[-K-M-]

I like your Marie-Josée Croze choice. Her eyes are captivating

Jeanne Marie:Audrey Tatou(Amelie)
Northstar: Orlando Bloom(LOTR)

I was gonna disagree, make Tatou Marrina, but I think she's a good match for Bloom. (Also, Ryder as Marrina! Yay!)
