In my version of the Actor Game, you are allowed to use people who have deceased and younger versions of people who have grown up.
So, without further delay, I give you...
Ren (no last name yet) played by Rachael Henley. The only change Henley would have to make here is chop her hair. Ren's a sailor, so she wears it short.

Grailyn Beckton played by...well...let me explain. Grailyn is the lead male, but I can never, ever find anyone to play lead males in the Actor Game. So, if Reese Witherspoon had a brother who looked like an exact male version of herself, it would be my Grailyn. Dear, cynical, quick-witted, bossy, studious Grailyn. He has to be my favorite.

Next, we have Merriam. Finding her actress took a really long time, but I finally found someone. I've settled for a young version of Winona Ryder. Okay, hang "settled". She's pretty much perfect.
There's me beauty.

Shiloh, one of the "bad guys", is played by Geoffrey Rush. I did not pick him because he was Barbossa in Pirates of the Carribean - Shiloh isn't even a pirate. I saw him in Les Miserables and knew he was perfect. Look at him! *gives happy shriek*

And last and probably the least (:D), I'm toying with a younger Christian Bale for playing Prince Cyrus. Maybe.

Tell me what you think! And be sure to try the Actor Game yourself, if you're suffering from writer's block. I don't know if this helped me or not...
Well, I'm off to bed. But do you know how I spent the evening? *laughs* Fencing with my brothers and making orange muffins for breakfast tomorrow morning. That's me - I skip from mighty warrior to sweet little homemaker all in a moment. I admit I might have stopped fencing because of the hearty whack my brother gave me on the index finger. It started to bleed - I was kind of proud ^_^
Farewell, friends.

LOVE this!
Okay, I feel like I have seen that Winona Ryder in some movie... I just can't out my finger on which one. She is beautiful in all the classiest, most precious ways. Those eyes are to die for. :)
And Geoffry Rush! Ahhh he is so evil!! I lovedddd him as Javert. (Okay, I am assuming you have seen the non-musical Les Miserables...wasn't Liam Neeson spectacular as Valjean? *laugh of delight* That is such an amazing movie.)
Anyway, thanks for posting this amusing and inspiring bit!
Love,
Margaret ;)
Those are awesome! I'm glad you play this game as it really helps in spurring my imagination! :-)
Oh yeah! Like 12:01 midnight! Technically though it was Christmas morning. LOL>
Love your choices, Ellyn!!:) Merriam is really pretty. I love the actor game, too--having images of my characters in my head really helps me.:) And I'm sorry I didn't see this post earlier, it didn't appear in my dashboard. (Or not as far as I know...) :D
This is a great idea....I think I'll be trying it. (:
I awarded you, btw.
Love always,
~Lily
