Round 1 | "My director pick is Ridley Scott. He’s one of the hardest working directors in Hollywood and is so darn prolific it’s hard to imagine he’s in his 70s! Gladiator is one of my fave movies of all time, so naturally he gains my respect, though sci-fi fans will regard Blade Runner or ALIEN as his crowning achievement. Even with his already stunning resume, looks like there are still more great projects in store for us from this British auteur, just check out his extensive possible project list." |  |
Round 2 | "My first actor pick is Lee Pace! Haven’t seen Pushing Daisy but those who have know he’s a funny guy, but I like him from The Fall and Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, and this talented, handsome, & versatile guy is grossly underused! Well, I hope to change that." |  |
Round 3 | "Before someone else snatches her, I better pick my fave actress now: Cate Blanchett. The great Cate is without a doubt one of the best actresses of her generation. She really can play anyone believably (even a different gender, i.e. Bob Dylan in I’m Not There) and always shines brightly even in less stellar movies. Since I’m not sure yet what movie genre I’m doing, at least I know it’ll be a good one with Blanchett in it" |  |
Round 4 | James McAvoy: "McAvoy is quickly becoming one of my fave Brits with his consistently convincing and affecting performances. His role in Atonement won me over and definitely Oscar worthy, and having just seen The Last Station, I'm even more impressed by his immense talent. He's also proven he can pull off an American action blockbuster with Wanted, and a romantic lead in Becoming Jane. Doesn't hurt that he kind of resembles Gerry Butler a little, those eyes, man I guess I'll always have a thing for the Scots :)" |  |
Round 5 | "Timothy Dalton: The Shakespearean-trained actor has been away from Hollywood for far too long. One of my favorite seasoned thespian, his screen presence and commanding voice are his signature. Most people know him as the gritty Bond, but he's done plenty of dramatic roles on stage. As he often steal scenes in supporting roles, I'd love to see him in a leading role with a killer script, a great director and equally-brilliant actors. " |  |
Round 6 | "My next pick is Eva Green. The sultry French actress first came to my attention as my fave Bond girl Vesper Lynd. She's breathtakingly beautiful but definitely not a bimbo. Her flirtatious banter with Daniel Craig on the train was so seductive without either one of them showing much skin! That's the kind of love interest I need for my movie. There's something mysterious about her, something unpredictable, which adds to her allure." |  |
Round 7 | "Ok, my 7th round pick is Dame Helen Mirren. Is an explanation necessary? I think not. The beautiful 65-year-old is one of the best actresses working today (of any age!) I feel like I’ve been seeing her a lot lately: The Queen, State of Play, The Last Station, RED… and I’m constantly amazed by her performance. She’d be a wonderful addition to my cast and a suitable mother figure to 41-year-old Cate Blanchett." |  |
