Lupita Nyong'o as Michelle Henke.

Not Queen Elizabeth? She has a very regal look.

And delicious.

And waste that glorious dark skin? Where else are we going to find an actress who really fits Michelle's description? Let Gugu Mbatha-Raw play Elizabeth, God knows she's got the looks and the talent. Just look at Lupita! Think of how she'd look challenging Crandall. Think of how she'd look riding to Mesa's rescue. She's perfect.

You've been thinking about this for a long time haven't you? Long before Evergreen :D

Perhaps even Paris Hilton


She's be great as the Dr (the name of the Dr escapes me) from the Fearless in On Basilisk Station. You know the one who sits around waiting for her staff to do all the work?

Yes, yes, I'll second that.



I'll THIRD, fourth and FIFTH that. Ok, so I'd agree to almost anything with Amanda in it…just not sure if she should be Samantha or Helen, lol.

I'd love to see a long running TV series and have had Tamsin Greig in mind for the role of Honor.

She's at least the character who plays Honor in my mental image while reading the books. I think she could pull it off nicely too.

Albino Africans are quite common in Tanzania. It would be great if one could play Thandi.
