Dream Casting

[Kirby Drummond]

After watching The Lookout, which was decent, if I was making a film, I'd have to find a spot for Joseph Gordon-Leavitt. So I was thinking of my dream casting list. I'd send out for these peeps to be in my movie (alive actors):

Leavitt
Ray Winstone
Cate Blanchett
Clive Owen
Saul Rubinek (can't make a movie without him)
David Thewlis (thinking career-revival)
Michael Parks
Owen Kline (if I needed a kid)

[El Tati]

Ray Winstone
Sam Rockwell
Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Robert Downey Jr.
Rachel Weisz
Michelle Monaghan
Ed Harris


I have no clue what kind of movie that would be, but it would be awesome!

[RathBandu]

I'll second the Hoffman, Owen, Rockwell, Harris, and Winstone mentions.

Laura Linney
Mark Ruffallo
Mary-Louise Parker
Alec Baldwin
Ian McShane
Andre Braugher
Patrick Wilson
Ellen Page

Those are all actors who I will watch anything they do, even crap.

[Detonathor]

Jeremy Irons
Jake Gyllenhaal
Viggo Mortensen
Hugh Jackman

Irons might be a crazy choice for a Western movie, but what do I know?

[El Tati]

There is no reason why we can´t share actors, this is who would WE cast if WE were making a movie.

[Eileen]

Brad Pitt
George Clooney
Matt Damon
Elliott Gould
Don Cheadle
Al Pacino
Casey Affleck
Scott Caan
Carl Reiner

[Tim Pedersen]

If I ever were to make a movie, I'd definitely go Southland Tales and grab everyone I can think of that I enjoyed in some capacity, with the following being the ones I will watch in just about anything:

Val Kilmer
Ed Norton
Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Christian Bale
Johnny Depp
Christopher Lambert
Lance Henriksen
Bruce Campbell

[Hifidog]

Start with:
Gene Hackman
Samuel L Jackson
Ed Harris
Jack Nicholson
David Morse
Alec Baldwin
Gerard Butler
Bob Hoskins

All in a movie that requires them to yell a lot (especially the top of my list)

Sprinkle in Alan Arkin and Bill Murray for a few scenes of deadpan delivery

Top off with Paul Giamatti for some bug-eyed reactions and cynicism

[FreeRobotSex]

Ellen Page
A Donkey

[Chris Miller]

I'm baffled as to why Harrison Ford isn't in Eileen's movie?

[El Tati]

He wasn´t in Ocean´s 13

[ExarKoontz]

BRUCE CAMPBELL
BRUCE CAMPBELL
BRUCE CAMPBELL
BRUCE CAMPBELL
BRUCE CAMPBELL
BRUCE CAMPBELL
Tom Waits

[Judas Booth]

Gimme the following actors and I'll make a killer movie:

Clancy Brown
Cate Blanchett
Joseph Cotton
Keith David
Michael Ironside
Ellen Barkin
Viggo Mortenson
Andy Garcia
Ed Harris
Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Bette Davis
Fred Ward
Humphrey Bogart
John Wayne
Rita Hayworth
Bill Paxton
Michael Biehn

yes, some of them would have to be given re-animator fluid, but so what!

[Syd]

I already did this dance in my head when I wrote my script. Now I have a chance to share with you all my dream cast. And not the sega kind.

Clancy Brown
Ving Rhames
Peter Stormare
Milla Jovovich
Crispin Glover
Karol Roden
Ron Pearlman
Terry O'Quinn
Rosario Dawson

and Michael Cera as the protagonist.

[RathBandu]

I want to see a crime movie where Alan Rickman, Jeremy Irons, and Ralph Fiennes play brothers.

[Eric C]

A buddy cop movie with Peter Dinklage and Jason Isaacs.

[Justin Clark]

Topher Grace
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Bryce Dallas Howard

Eric Bana
Viggo Mortensen
Kiefer Sutherland
Patrick Wilson
Clive Owen
Nathan Fillion

Eva Green
Marcia Gay Harden
Helena Bonham Carter

Bill Nighy
Christopher Lee
Max Von Sydow

Damned if I know what kind of movie this'd shape up to be, but I'd pay $11 to see it even without that knowledge.

[The Gayest]

Geoffrey Rush
Clive Owen
Cate Blanchett

You couldn't possibly make a bad movie with the three of them in it.

[Quarant]

What the hell is the point of this thread? You people are just listing actors you like and not even saying what type of movie it would be.

Here's my dream casting: EVERY GREAT ACTOR AND ACTRESS THAT HAS EVER LIVED! Man, a film with all of them together would just be killer.

[RathBandu]

I'm telling you, this is TV casting, but I think putting Kyle Chandler and Jeffrey Dean Morgan into some kind of buddy picture would be comedy gold.

[Uncle Cthulhu]

Geoffrey Rush
Clive Owen
Cate Blanchett

They already did.

Yeah, that wasn't exactly a serious post.
