Suppose GL made you the chief casting director for the new NJO movie, which of the current roster Hollywood actors/actresses would you choose to play the following NJO/EU characters:
1. The Solo children (Jacen, Jaina and Anakin)
2. Mara Jade
3. Tahiri Veila
4. Danni Quee
5. Jagged Fel
6. Admiral Paelleon(sp?)
7. Kyp Durron
8. Supreme Overlord Shimrra
9. Nom Anor
10. Warmaster Tsavong Lah
You can add any character from the NJO that I might have missed and their corresponding actor. (The OT ones don't count, like Luke, Leia, Han etc.)

Remember, people, commas are your friends. Love them, embrace them, cherish them, and for crying out loud, USE them.
Admiral Pellaeon
- I can't think of anyone, except someone who's old, a little fat, and with graying hair with a moustache. Maybe James Doohan sans Scottish accent, or someone who looks like him.
Kyp Durron
- That dude who played Hornblower, Ioan Gruffold. What the fuck, maybe Colin Farrell.
Jaina Solo
Avril Langerine has the right look IMHO, however, we have no idea if she can act.
You need a short brunette for that role.
Does Carrie Fisher have any young relatives the right age?
Anakin Solo
Again, no idea
Tahiri Veila
I'm tempted to say either Hillary Duff or Lindsay Lohan, as they are the right general age and general description. However, the concept of either of them holding a lightsaber is too.... wtf.
The girl that plays Hermini (sp) in the Harry Potter movies would probably be a good choice. She's also the right age
Danni Quee
You need a 20 - 25 year old hot blonde for that. Lots of those trying to get acting jobs
Mystique would be a good choice.
Jagged Fel
The guy that plays Iceman from the X-men movies
Admiral Paelleon
I keep seeing the actor that played Magneto and Gandolf
Kyp Durron
No idea
Supreme Overlord Shimrra
Former WWE Wrestler 'Brock Lesnar'
Nom Anor
There's a certain irony to Wil Wheaton playing him (grin)
However, failing that, I'd have to go with the guy that used to play Jimmy Olsen on 'The Adventures of Lois and Clark'
Warmaster Tsavong Lah
'The Rock'
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.
It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.
Jaina Solo
Avril Langerine has the right look IMHO, however, we have no idea if she can act.
From what I've seen of her, she can't.
I don't even want to IMAGINE this. *shiver* NO WAY.

Tahiri Veila

Uh...disturbing...

So you want teen singers and WWE wrestlers to be actors in a Star Wars movie?
Sorry, haven't watched X-men
Anyway...I can see it now...the final battle between Luke and Shimrra turned into a wrestling match between overweight Mark Hamill and a WWE wrestler, and all the teen singers that play Jedi getting together to sing a song halfway through the movie.
Since I really don't know any good child actors, I'll move right down the list...
Mara Jade -- Dana Delany
Tahiri Veila -- Emma Watson
Danni Quae -- Susan Eisenberg
Jagged Fel -- Michael Rosenbaum
Admiral Pellaeon -- David Warner
Kyp Durron -- Jude Law
Supreme Overlord Shimrra -- Michael Ironside
Nom Anor -- Andrew J. Robinson
Warmaster Tsavong Lah -- Carl Lumbly
...And to add a couple of my own...
Gram bel Iblis -- Gary Chalk
Dif Scaur -- William Saddler
Borsk Fey'lya -- William Atherton
Viqi Shesh -- Jennifer Hale
Harrar -- Keith David
Talon Karrde -- Robery deNiro
Yuzzhan Vong Hunter Droids (voice) -- Kevin Conroy
Nas Choka -- Phil Morris
Nem Yim -- Venus Terzo
Onimi -- Alec Willows
Jaina - no idea. Emma Watson...call me crazy, but her face does not really match that of Carrie Fisher... it is not wide enough and her chin isn't the right one, either.
Mara Jade - Mira Sorvino or Famke Janssen... However Famke, when shot at the wrong angles, doesn't resemble Mara at all.
Jag Fel: No idea. A younger version of Ben affleck?
Admiral Pellaeon - definitely Sir Derek Jacobi.

A decision must be made in the life of every nation at the very moment when the grasp of the enemy is at its throat. Then, it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy, to rest survival upon what is expedient, to look the other way. Well, the answer to that is 'survival as what'? A country isn't a rock. It's not an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for. It's what it stands for when standing for something is the most difficult! - Chief Judge Haywood

If Religion and Politics were characters on a soap opera, Religion would be the one that goes insane with jealousy over Politics' intimate relationship with Reality, and secretly murder Politics in the night, skin the corpse, and run around its apartment wearing the skin like a cape shouting "My votes now! All votes for me! Wheeee!" -- Lagmonster

fuck it, sample Barry White for the YVH driods, he's bass enough failing that get James Earl Jones or Me plus some distortion effects.... (at least before han makes some comment about them sounding like his father in law) *just thought of a new screen cap, vader torturing solo at cloud city scene with the caption:
Once again Solo are you shagging my little girl.....

Ron Pearlman... yes, yes.
Isn't Corran Horn used again in the NJO books? I always thought Jude Law could play him.
He plays a major part in the second and third books, kills the Vong leader (or temp leader until Tsavong Lah arrives anyway) in a duel, then goes on a vacation after his reputation is trashed by Fey'lya and returns a few books later to whoop some Vong rear. He went on a few missions with Anakin and was in the room with Luke when Luke felt Anakin die. So yes, Corran Horn plays a good sized part in NJO
. And yes, I will get back to work on BOBW...
