Wrong in the Harry Potter films all of the kids grew up with the films

Emma Watson age 11, Dan Radcliffe age 11, Rupert Grint age 12, in first film now all are 20-22 years old. First film released in 2001.

Lucy Liu as Allison Harrington?

Small, wiry, asian, good sense of humor.

I think she would be a good choice.


Also Thandi Palane = Amazon Eve ?

Just found out about the lady like 2 days ago.

Here's another one I cast in my head every time I read about him. As Victor Cachat, Sean Maher (Dr. Simon Tam in Firefly):

mmmm

I would say Lucy Lawless for Honor

She has the phisique, the height, the martial arts movements and her face is (IMHO) exotic enough to picture her as Honor

Have you watched Sparticus on TMC or is it Showtime? Anyway Lucy Lawless is starting to look old and saggy.

Let's try Mariska Hargitay from Law and Order SVU. Get Dara Torres to buff her up a bit.
Lucy Lawless is too small.
In any obligatory fitness room scene you need Dara, Cory Everson, Layla Ali, Julie Chu, Misty May-Treanor, Nicole Scherzinger, and Samantha Harris.
Salli Richardson can play Queen Elizabeth.

I especially like his expression in this picture. This is Victor Cachat saying, "If you don't give me the information, you will never know a day without pain."

Or, he could be saying, "I'll have the chicken marsala, with honey-mustard dressing on my salad."

Only problem with that is that Sean Maher is quite tall and Victor Cachat is... not.
