Imperial Agent: The Movie Starring...

....whom? If you were going to caste a movie based on the Imperial Agent story, who would you place in the parts of the characters? The stipulations are that any character with an accent MUST be played by someone whose accent is genuine and real (I hate when posers try and butcher it - hello Natalie Portman in "V For Vendetta") and no putting hot people in roles because you think that they're hot. ;)

 

PS> (not directed or written by George Lucas)

 

 

 

IA: Ralph Fiennes http http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000146/

Kaliyo: Milla Jovovich http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000170/ , Natassia Malthe http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0853573/ , or Kristanna Loken http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0518085/ (all crazy female action stars that will play anything and probably WANT to shave their heads)

Vector: Daniel Day-Lewis http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000358/ , Guy Pearce http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001602/ , or Tom Hiddleston http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1089991/

Lokin: Terence Stamp http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000654/ , Brian Cox http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004051/ , or Pete Postlethwaite http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000592/

Temple: (uncustomized) Naomie Harris http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0365140/ ; (customized) Kate Beckensale http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000295/ or Rhona Mitra http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0593961/

SCORPIO: CGI - continued to be voiced by the sultry http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000679/

 

Keeper: Hugo Weaving http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0915989/ , Jeremy Irons http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000460/ , or John Hurt http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000457/

Watcher 2: Gemma Ateron http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2605345/

 

Believe me when I say that this was really hard. Casting Lokin and Keeper meant that I had a HUGE plethora of strong older leads. I could go on for days, especially if I used more dead actors than Posttlethwaite, with so many awesome actors fitting for that role.

My dream cast would look like this:

 

The Agent: Charlize Theron http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000234/

Kaliyo: Jennifer Connelly http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000124/.

Vector: Jude Law http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000179/

Lokin: Alan Rickman http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000614/

Temple: Zoe Saldana http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0757855/

Scorpio: /agree with OP, Deborah Kara Unger http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000679/

Keeper: Michael Caine http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000323/

Watcher 2: Scarlett Johansson http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0424060/

Great post. I've been thinking about this one myself.

 

The Agent - Jude Law - my character went from evil to good and I think he would pull off both well

Keeper - Hugo Weaving - cool maturity and a hidden mean streak like in V for Vendetta

Watcher 2 - Keeley Hawes - played a smart British agent in the TV series MI5

Kaliyo - Angelina Jolie - need a mean streak to play her, too, is crazy enough to shave her head, and looks convincing firing a gun. Not a big Milla fan

Vector - James McAvoy - liked him in Wanted

Dr Lokin - Ben Kingsley - has played both cultured and very nasty characters

Raina - Keira Knightley - I would have said Zoe Saldana but she doesn't have an authentic accent

SCORPIO - still voiced by Debra Unger

 

I would have loved to have thrown Claudia Black in there somewhere, but she has much more stage presence than you need for Watcher 2 and I couldn't picture her shaving her head to play Kaliyo.
