Thanks for the welcome. I've been hanging around for a while, figured I ought to say something at some point.

Have him grow out his beard, and I can easily see Baldwin as Terekhov.

Not hot enough.

(Sorry!)

I've always seen Terekhov as a circa-1993 Kenneth Branagh type.

Malin Crépin is my choice as Eloise Pritchart.
Mark Harmon? An inspired selection-congratulations.
Shailene Woodley is all wrong for Hearns.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw is just too young and beautiful for Elizabeth.
As for Honor, it seems everybody has his or her own preference.

Shailene Woodley is all wrong for Hearns.

I have to admit that when I initially read Rose's post, I thought the same thing. Because, Shailene just isn't hot enough. Plus, she doesn't naturally exude princess-like.

But I said to myself, "Self, wait a minute. This is the opinion of a woman who hunts on the same field as I, for the same sex as I. I shouldn't just dismiss her opinion." So I decided to do a little research on Shailene - her pics. Looking to see if she at least has some hot pics. Because, that being equal, I could be wrong about her other qualities. And why not, I was in error about Jennifer Lawrence being totally wrong for Katniss Everdeen. I was very wrong about Jessica Alba not being right to play Sue Storm.


So I went sight-seeing on the net for any hot Shailene pics. Not expecting to find any.

Wrong! Very wrong!!

She has a pic sitting in a black, one-piece bikini in white tennis shoes. Hot! The long hair accompanying the look has Grayson Princess written all over it.

Shailene may be a sleeper cast! She certainly has the talent as her acting has range.

Rose just may be spot on on this one.

Indeed. But what I'm not seeing is that "Greyson granite" in her expressions. Of course, the pics GIS was returning were mostly live candids in which she's smiling in that way agents like to encourage their celebrity clients to do. She's a professional actress...I assume she's got a pretty fair capacity to make her face show whatever emotion she wants it to.

But not how I picture Abigail looking at all.

...you never saw Shailene in Divergent, did you.

(Yes, yes, laugh all you please, Divergent was a shit movie, we all know this. Shailene was its one redeeming feature.)

She's got the gentleness and the steel for Abi, mark my words. (For the record, when I first met Abigail Hearns, the first face to come to my mind was Shailene's.)

Just finished watching the 2015 MTV Movie Awards.

It really should have been named The Shailene Show. She cleaned up!

The trophy is a golden tub of popcorn. She got plenty of popcorn!

Go Shailene!

Oh, she was so hot my corn was poppin'!

Gal Gadot is going to play Wonder Woman.

That puts her in contention to play Honor! She's 5'9" of lovely legs. You may remember her from the Fast and Furious franchise.
