I was just imagining BA Barakus and Hannibal from the A-Team (TV show) as Scotty and Horace.
A wee bit dated, I'm afraid.
Who would make a good Honor Harrington in a Movie/TV role?

Rhona Mitra for Honor. No asian blood, but I think it would be a mistake to insist on that.

I like Olivia Munn for HH. Her mother is asian she is tall and atractive plus extreemly smart and funny.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivia_Munn  She is also a sci-fi fan which can't hurt. |

She's only 5'4. Tall for Asian maybe but mighty short for Honor. I still think Honor will be a total unknown to us now. She's probably playing basketball at UCLA or Univeristy of Hawaii. Martial Arts, Mensa and the local President of the Honor Fan Club should be in her resume. |

Actress Missi Pyle is 5'10", and looks good in a space uniform:
 Never give up! Never surrender! |

... and she is 40 years old. No one who's over 30 right now is plausible if the studio has any plans for sequels. |

I just wish they would get the first movie made. Then if it is any good they can worry about a second. I doubt it will last beyond three films in even the best case whoever plays HH. Rememeber that the guys making (an optimistic word) this film will not have the worlds biggest budget. All the characters will likely be relatively unfamiliar faces but hopefully, good actors. As for the person to play HH, that will be an unknown: think Noomi Rapace before she appeared in the first movie of the Millenium Trilogy. Nobody outside of the Swedish theater ever heard of her. Now she gets to make really big (and sometimes overblown) Hollywood films. I am NOT suggesting her for HH. She is a wee tiny person and likely better suited for Alison Harrington. Which brings us to the question of what/how to introduce prolong to the audience? |
