The news from Variety is that Katherine Heigl (Izzy from Grey's Anatomy) is attached to the Stephanie Plum series. I like Katherine, but as Stephanie Plum, the ultimate Jersey girl? No. No no no no no. Now, I'm not sure who I see....a brunette, with big hair and a nasal voice, I guess. I listened to some of the books on tape and the woman who's Castle's agent was the narrator. She was awesome. A bit old for the role now, I guess. I can't actually think of a good brunette for the role, can you?
What about Ranger and Morelli? I like the cop boyfriend on Mercy, or Milo Ventimiglia from Heroes as Joe. Not sure about Ranger.
I listened to Nora's Chat session on the RWA CD. People asked her who she'd like to see as Eve Dallas. Of course she didn't have an answer. (She mentioned Angelina Jolie, but she wasn't serious.) I think Stana Katic, also on Castle, would be awesome, but you're never going to get her to play another cop. Vera Farmiga, maybe.
I had a parent conference the other day and we talked about movies and she said her son thought Christian Bale shouldn't have been John Connor. I agree. He was not at all what I pictured adult John Connor to look like, and he didn't have very much charm in him. Even his father Kyle was charming. I would hope John would take some of that. I would have rather seen Ryan Reynolds, maybe. Then I wouldn't have been rooting so hard for Marcus to keep his heart.
And I liked Christian Bale as John Connor but to me John was coming apart at the seams and Bale played that perfectly. But it was Marcus with those baby blues and little-boy-lost thing that did it for me.
I thought Jonathon Ryes-Myers (sp?) might be a possible Roarke though I don't think he's quite ready for the part yet (needs a little more age and experience on him).
I suppose you're right about John Connor. I just...wanted more, I guess. He didn't come across as heroic as I'd always imagined he'd be.
I'm a mom, a wife, a teacher and a writer. I have five cats and a dog to keep me company. I love bookstores and libraries and Netflix - movies are my greatest weakness.
