For "Alice" I choose Mena Survari. Alice reminds me of "Alice in Wonderland" and the phrase "through the looking glass" comes to mind. Ms. Survari captures that delicate balance of wanting to do the right thing, curiosity, and innocence – and yet Alice isn't as innocent as you think.
For "Edmund" I chose Robert Pattinson. He's got the playful mischievous look to him, but Edmund isn't as self-absorbed as he appears to be. He's got a serious side, too.
For "Grayson" I picked Orlando Bloom. He's hot. He's charming. He's clever. What more could you ask for?
For "Sir John" I picked Ralph Fiennes. Sir John is complex. He cares for England deeply. He's also very guarded and ultimately he has to believe the unbelievable if he wants to protect England.
"Keira" is inspired by Keira Knightly. I've always enjoyed her performances. She embodies a quiet strength in her acting which the character needs.

I can picture and appreciate them all except Pattinson. His Twilight glumness is so firmly planted in my brain, I can't see the mischief and creative genius your Edmund requires.
ReplyDeleteSteph, your choice of actors is perfect. I can really see Alice, Grayson and Edmond now.
ReplyDeleteI love your character pics and photos. It really adds to another layer to Victorian Scoundrel. Wishing you all the best with this steampunk!

Great job, Steph! The actors you picked are spot on! I loved the book, btw. :-)
ReplyDeleteBarbara, have you seen him in Harry Potter 4? He's a little bit more loser. Doesn't talk as much, but you see more of that playful glint. I hear he was really good in Water for Elephants, but I'm waiting for DVD to see it.
ReplyDeleteMona & Tami, I'm so glad you enjoyed the book and you can see these actors playing those characters.
Maggie, I agree - it gives it an extra quality to be able to picture the characters.
