So basically this is just some stupid blog from my imagination...Mark gave me Hush Hush for Christmas...and it's actually pretty good. :) Kind of like a darker, more complex Twilight. (sorry for the comparison, I really couldn't help it. :P ) All said though, my loyalty still lies with the vampires. :> But that doesn't mean I can't like/love Hush Hush right? :D After all, I love the person who gave me the book. :"> (warning: extremely long post because of actor choices and photos)
So I lent my friend Justine Hush, Hush and she loved it too, and Chiquet read the book as well, so we decided to cast our dream cast for Hush Hush. But most of these ideas I'll be posting below are mostly mine, so :)) Characters' names are in
bold, while the actor/actress choices are below them, with respective pictures. :">
Patch Cipriano - your tall, dark, and handsome mysterious bad boy who's really a.....spoiler spared for those who haven't read it yet. :P *and I'm thinking that's a lot so far. :))* possible choices:
Steven Strait
Hands down, it's a unanimous decision among my friends. We were already depressed enough when Steven Strait wasn't cast as Jacob (though we're definitely not complaining about Taylor Lautner :P ), so I hope producers in the future consider him! :P
Matt Lanter
Okay, definitely second-best choice from Steven Strait. I'd actually say he'd be perfect for Patch, if we weren't so loyal to Steven Strait. :)) He's got that devilishly handsome persona going for him, and he looks mischevious yet lovable. GAH. Steven would just be an edge from this guy because he's: 1.)three years younger (though it's not even obvious :P) 2.) tanner (Patch isn't pale like Edward is) 3.) a better actor (from what I've heard, plus Steven has the more credible background...for one, I don't watch 90210 because I think it's cheesy :P)
Nora Grey - the heroine of the story. According to the book, she is "a smokey-eyed brunette
with volumes of curly hair that holds its own against even with the best flatiron, and long legs like a bar stool." Basically, Bella but less clumsier. :P oh, and her hair has the sliiiightest bit of auburn. :))
Emmy Rossum
Basically almost how I imagined Nora. Wise-looking and elegant, yet has that streak of normalcy in her. But, there's just something off-looking about Emmy Rossum at times, and I think she looks a bit more mature than your average 16-year-old, plus looks a little tough at times.
Emma Roberts
Physically, she has that down-to-earth beauty, plus she's like a sweeter and younger-looking version of Emmy Rossum. However, I'm not so much a fan of her and her work on Nick, but I have to admit, her acting has improved a lot from Aquamarine to the last time I saw her on Wild Child.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
She looks streetsmart, sassy, sweet and she's beautiful...but I doubt she'll pass as a 16-year-old. 18, maybe, but not 16. :P and I'm very particular about this, because I'm turning 16 in a month, and she doesn't look anything like my age. :)) (but that's just maybe because I look younger.. :P ) Plus, she's done Maxim covers so I don't think she'll want to play a teenager anymore. BTW, she was the bad girl in Sky High, and Bruce Willis' daughter in Die Hard 4.
Lucy Hale
My latest Nora discovery. I actually think she'll be perfect! She's on Privileged, and guested on Wizards of Waverly Place a few times. She can pass for the age, she looks smart, she's stunning, has smoky eyes and gorgeous legs I presume, plus she looks great with wavy/curly hair AND is a talented actress...I think we have our Nora. *nods* :D
Dabria - Patch's psychotic ex-girlfriend/*insertnameofcreaturehereincaseyouhaven'treadthebookyet* who wants him back. And like all psychotic bitch exes, she's insanely beautiful. I kind of remember her being described as a blonde with really straight hair, so I'll go and take a whack at this.
Laura Ramsey
She was with Steven Straight in the Covenant. Basically I'm rooting for her because she has that deceiving look about her, she can pass for angelic yet totally sinister. And she's hot when she does it. :))
Dianna Agron
Okay, I'll admit, I'm biased. I love Dianna. :P She's heartachingly beautiful, I kind of want to cry because she's so prettier than I am. =)) She's sweet in real life. But I think she can do psychotic mean, well she's already clever mean on Glee. :P She's one of the better actresses on the show. I love her classic beauty, and personally I'd want her recast in place of Nikki Reed as Rosalie on Twilight. But we all know that's not gonna happen. :P
Vee Sky - Nora's BFF for life, her "un-twin". They're a little different in personality, as Vee's more outgoing and is easily into boys, and they look totally different on the outside. Vee is blonde-ish and has a tall and womanly figure. She's a little more irrational than Nora is, and she's mostly happy-go-lucky.
Whitney Thompson
She's from America's Next Top Model, the first full-figured model to win the show. While she's got it physically, I'm a little apprehensive about her acting skills, and if she could pass for 16.
Bailey Hanks
She was the winner of MTV's Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for the Next Elle Woods, replacing Laura Belle Bundy as Elle in LBTM before it ended its run on Broadway. Safe to say since she was in Legally Blonde, we may not have problems about her acting, and she's only 22 so maybe she could still pass for a teenager? :P
Elliott - a transferee in Nora's high school from a prestigious prep school uptown, apparently because he lost his scholarship. He develops a crush on Nora, and while Nora shows signs of attraction at first, these are quickly quenched by her developing attachment to Patch. Blonde, handsome and friendly. :D
Alex Pettyfer
He wouldn't be my first choice...personally I think Trevor Donovan from 90210 fits the bill a lot more, but I think he's too old. Plus, I think Elliott should be able to rival Patch effectively like how Jacob rivals Edward in Twilight, so I think Alex would be a bankable option. Then again...he can go for Jules too, he's got that brooding thing going... :P
Steven R. McQueen
I know Elliott is supposed to be blonde, but I think Steven gives off that boy-next-door aura, plus I think he can do dirty blonde anyway. (Well, it's STILL blonde. :P ) And if not, he can always go for Jules.
Lucas Grabeel
I know....what's a guy from High School Musical doing here? :P But Lucas is probably the best actor out of all of them, and he doesn't actually associate himself with Disney. Plus, he can exude that all-American, boy-next-door persona. And he's blond! :P
Jules - Elliott's friend from Kingstown Prep. He's rich, mysterious and brooding. Also, he's tall.
Nicholas Braun
Basically how I imagined Jules to be, only less douchey-looking. Plus, he's usually a comedy actor, so hopefully he could pull off brooding.
Adam Gregory
I'm not so familiar with his work, other than he's on 90210, but he pretty much could pass for Jules, even with his height (6'2"!)
So I'm done! whew. Gimme a break, I just had a bad test on Chemistry, and I had to destress myself. :P Physics, wag ka naaaaa. :|
