Movie Cast - my votes

[Catherine Curtis]

Here are my choices for actors/actresses: (a few I did post here a few years
ago, so sorry for repeating myself, have added a few new ones!).

Jamie - Sean Bean (Boromir in LOTR and Odysseus in Troy), since he's got red
hair, he could play the 40-ish Jamie and he's British.

Claire - Jayne Seymour, she's already got the doctor part down pat, and she
can play a character with a 20-year time span easily.

Geillis - the actress who plays Marguerite on Arthur Conan Doyle's Lost
World, she's SO materialistic and is really into gems.

Master Raymond - if Hollywood special FX could pull this one off, the only
person I see playing this is Peter Lorre, posthumously, of course.

Ian Murray, Jamie's nephew - Ashton Kutcher.

Roger - Peter Wingfield (yummy), formerly Methos character on Highlander:
The Series.

Well, that's all my brain could come up with at the moment. What do you all
think?

[Debi Matlack]

All right, I'll have a go!
For Jamie I have a hard time seeing any existing actor, though Jason Flemyng
("Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels", and "Snatch") looks like Jamie
should for the most part..

Claire should be played by Alex Kingston, who was Elizabeth Corday on "
ER". She has the physical appearance, she's British and she's a damn fine
actress.

Fergus is hard. He's such a strong character that it's hard to imagine an
actor that could take that on.

Frank/"Black Jack" Randall- I think Adrian Paul, from TV's "Highlander"
would be perfect for this. He's done the hero/nice guy bit/ and, if you
watched the series and saw the character after the Dark Quickening, then you
know he can do the evil bit too. Clive Owen ("Arthur", "Closer") could make
a fine Frank/Jack. Or one could be his brother the clergyman, whose name
escapes me at the moment, the one that ended up being Frank's ancestor.

Master Raymond could ppotentially be pulled off by Danny DeVito. Hey, if he
managed the Penguin, he could do a toad-like man *G* Peter Lorre would, of
course, be perfect, except for the minor detail of his passing sometime
back. But Hollywood is doing amazing things these days...

Ian as an adult, I could see Ashton Kutcher doing that, or perhaps Fergus,
if he could manage either accent without mangling it. Another possibility I
see for Ian is Tom Welling, from "Smallville".

Brianna is another hard one. Her physical description is so distinct that I
can't think of a current acctress that matches. Get back to me on this one.

Roger- While I *love* Peter Wingfield, he doesn't say "Cast me as Roger
MacKenzie" to me. Whoever doesn't play Ian or Fergus in my movie coul manage
Roger, but I think Tom Weller might be best. He already has the ability to
play someone with a secret he can't share with the general public down.

Lord John- This one is tricky too. Jude Law would be nice. He's handsome,
can act well and has a somewhat delicate cast to his features that could
make him the ideal nobleman/officer/secret homosexual.

Obviously I'm more confident casting the male roles than female roles!
Next?

Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?

Laura Prepon from "That 70's Show" is the only one that comes to mind for
me. Now she's blonde, of course, but I'm supposed to be brunette, not
auburn, too.lol Hair color can be bought, height can't.

Good pick! I can see Jude Law for LJG.

Re: your pick of Tom Weller for Roger.

IMHO, Tom Weller looks too well-fed and more like a football jock than the
scholarly description of Roger. People didn't look that well-nourished in
the 18th Century either. If memory serves me correctly, Roger's character
is a tall, gangly sort, a bit on the nerdy side. Tom Weller is nowhere near
being a nerd. Peter Wingfield fits the physical description better and can
portray more intensity than Weller, but that may just be the age difference.

Forgot all about Alex Kingston, she would make an excellent Claire too.

You are right about Adrian Paul, he played EDM (Evil Duncan MacLeod)
remarkably well, very believable. But I think I'd rather see Adrian play
Jamie's uncle, the one who tried to kill him (and Claire?), also portraying
a bad guy. Then we'd get to see Adrian running around in a kilt again,
brandishing a Claymore, always a plus! <G>

For Aunt Jocasta, I'd lean towards Francesca Annis, a very dignified woman
of a certain age.

I'll probably think up some more, will post as soon as I do! This is fun!

[Debi Matlack]

Ooohhh! AP as ... oh gods, what WAS his name. I can think of Colum and his
'son' Hamish, that was realyy the son of...what was his name! But wasn't he
giner-haired, like Jamie? Or maybe that's just how I pictured him. Beause
Jamie's mother Ellen was the red-head that he got his coloring from. The
said his father, Brian was 'dark as a seal', and Jenny got that in the
family. (Like these are real people, but in a way, they are!) Anyway,
coloring aside, I could see AP (Adrian Paul) as whatever the heck his name
was. And he does mighty nice in a kilt.
Roger wasn't from the 18th century though, at least not originally. I always
pictured him in my mind as a big strong fella, since his line does go back
to the same stock Jamie is from (aren't they, time warp considered,
technically cousins? Maybe not so close, but according to my lineage, I'm
related to Henry VIII on my mother's side. 17th cousins 20 times removed or
vice versa.OF course, doesn't mean I look like the family either..oh well.
*babble/OFF*) I see Roger as quite handsome, since remember Brianna's friend
was practically drooling over him at the Highland Gathering they attended in
more recent times. Not that PW (Peter Wingfield) is unattractive, quite the
opposite. I could even see him playing Frank/Jack, though there might be a
role he would be better suited to if I could only think instead of rattle
on.

For Francesca Annis as Aunt Jocasta, I don't think she's right. AJ is

You got my votes for Alex Kingston & Danny DeVito. I swear I was just

very versatile actor. The other actors I'm not familiar enough with, but
great choices for the other 2!

I've always imagine Pierce Brosnan as Frank/BJ Randall. He can definitely
do a husband and I've seen him doing a nasty role (can't remember at the
moment what it was). His face and eyes just get a very hard edge to them.
Plus he has the black hair and the rest of his body is pretty good too!
Hollywood makeup artists can do wonders to get rid of his slight crows'
feet!

He is the Scottish actor who plays the Phantom in the Phantom of the Opera
movie that is out right now. He is so gorgeous and would definitely HAVE
to be cast in an Outlander movie!

AND since Diana mentions him specifically in her Nov. '04 update as being
the right type, I personally think this one is a no brainer! :-)

But, then, I am a little biased!

who are you speaking of?

Oh, sorry 'bout that Angel...I was talking about Gerry Butler...The Phantom
from POTO...also Beowulf in "Beowulf and Grendel" (and Dracula and Attila
and...sorry...bit of a fan here!)

What about Ewan mcGregor for jamie...he's handsome and Scottish. Also i
think Liv Tyler could do Clair.

Ewan Mc Gregor doesn't have the "cat" eyes, he isn't a redhead & I doubt
that he's tall enough to be Jamie. He was wonderful in "The Big Fish"
though. Great movie!
I think Liv Tyler has already been in too many renaissance & fantasy movies
to be effective. I think there would have to be 2 Claire's & probably 2
Jamie's as well. I don't see how only 2 actor each could be effective
enough to work. It would have to be younger people aged or older people
made to look young which never works in my opinion.
