embroidererWhat actor's would you pick for FH451
Jack Nicholson would make an excellent choice. But what's he asking nowadays? $20,0000,000 a film? Somebody tell him $20,000 and he gets to work with Mel Gibson's Jesus!

Glenn CocoHere's How I would Cast it. Of course, there are choices. It's just really up to people's decision on which would work/match the best.
Montag: Viggo Mortensen, Clive Owen, Matt Damon, Leonardo diCaprio, Nicholas Cage, Adrien Brody
Millie: Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Keira Knightley, Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Connely, (This one might not seem perfect to you but if you have seen Vanila Sky, you'd know that "CAMERON DIAZ" can also be fit for the part)
Clarisse: (First of all, Clarisse in the, 'in the novel' and not the movie, is suppose to be 16 years old turning 17) I don't know why the heck did they cast Julie in the old movie. Dakota Fanning, Kay Panabaker
Faber: Christopher Walken
Granger: Morgan Freeman
Captain Beatty: Hugh Jackman, Tom Hanks, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jack Nicholson
Old Lady: (If Gloria Stewart was still alive, she'd be perfect for the part =(, Ruby Dee

OmniI don't like the fact that this book is being made into a movie. To me, it was a very descriptive and psychological story, so descriptive and psychological that I feel like it'd fail if made into a film. The only way I can see this book being successfully made into a movie is if it's not 100% true to its original source. I believe I read somewhere that it wasn't going to be either. I really wish this book would just be left alone.

philnicHi Omni, if you don't like the idea of the film then... don't watch it!
The way things are going, I don't think this film will be made. Like most Hollywood film projects, it's going to sit on a shelf gathering dust while something much more disappointingly mindless gets funded.
I have seen the Frank Darabont script for the proposed film, and it's pretty good and a pretty good adaptation. If he gets to make it, I think it will be fine. Remember The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile!
If the script falls into other hands, well... remember A Sound Of Thunder!

fjp451...but where is the screenplay, and in whose hands does the production now rest?
Still F. Darabont? This is a post topic almost as old as the site itself.
