--- Quote from: rose29206 on June 11, 2010, 05:37:56 PM ---I've been googling to see who fits my mental images somewhat. Here's what I've found:

Kincaid : Karl Urban.
Thomas : Justin Hartley, even though he's blond.
Michael : Viggo Mortensen (not perfect, but something like that)

I can't quite decide, but Harry is somewhat like Eduardo Verastegui in certain pics.

Murphy : Meg Ryan is the closest I can come to my image ... I have a really hard time picturing Murphy as a blond, though. She always seemed brunette to me.

Charity: Meryl Streep
Molly : Picture something like a punk Kate Bosworth.

Susan: Catherine Zeta Jones

Sorry rose but have to disagree with most of these for a movie (but I can't disagree with how you see them in your head ~_~)

I'll explain.

Karl Urban as Kincaid- no explanation here, I just don't see him as Kincaid.
Justin Hartley as Thomas- I don't know who he is.
Viggo as Michael - Good choice, Sean Bean would be another
Meg Ryan (48) as Murphy -  I loved Meg Ryan when I was growing up. Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathy Ireland, etc. These were my generation of celebrity females. But Meg is little old now to be Murphy. And Meg didn't age well either.
Meryl Streep (60) as Charity - too old, and can you picture Meryl as the wife of Viggo.....uhhhh no.
Kate Bosworth as Molly - Kate is pretty, I am not too sure about her as Molly though.
Catherine Zeta Jones (40) as Susan - a little older than I would picture Susan, Jones would make a good Arianna Ortega


Keep in mind is easier to make someone look older than it is to make someone look younger.

MoSeS:
One of the caveats with casting some of these characters is that some of them are immortals.

The Vampires, The Denarians, The Fey, etc.

So casting them by how old the are suppose to look versus who could act most like that character seems to be a challenge.

Most of the suggestions are either to young or too old in someones opinion so I think there should be some liberties taken with both looks and ages if a film series were ever made.

svb1972:
I thoguht Arianna Ortega looked 16?

MoSeS:
Isn't Arianna Ortega the wife of Duke Ortega, and didn't Duke Ortega look older. I assumed Arianna looked older too.

But your probably right, they are vampires after all, they could look 15 and be 1500.

Vash the white:
David webnam is a great actor, and he really gets into his roles, so he would dye his hair black, i mean viggo is blond and he was aragorn, they just died it, and as butters it would be awesome! he has already done nerdy guy, he was the friar in van hellsing, he also does bad guy well. i can see him as Kincaid too
