Casting actors for a film adaptation of "Seriously Wicked" by Tina Connolly would be an exciting challenge! Here are some suggestions for key characters:
-
Camille "Cam" McCready:
- Actress: Milly Bobby Brown
- Reason: Milly has proven her acting chops with a combination of vulnerability and strength in her performances, particularly in roles like Eleven in "Stranger Things." Her ability to portray a complex character who navigates challenges with both humor and seriousness would suit Cam well.
-
Madame M:
- Actress: Helen Mirren
- Reason: Helen Mirren could bring a blend of gravitas and charisma to the role of Cam's powerful and somewhat misguided mentor. Her experience and ability to portray layered characters would add depth to Madame M's portrayal.
-
Bran:
- Actor: Finn Wolfhard
- Reason: Finn has the right blend of charm and slight rebelliousness that would fit Bran's character. His performances in roles like Mike in "Stranger Things" show he can handle the mix of wit and sincerity that Bran embodies.
-
Gabby:
- Actress: Lana Condor
- Reason: Lana Condor, known for her role in "To All the Boys I've Loved Before," brings both heart and humor, which would be essential for portraying Gabby’s light-heartedness and loyalty as a friend to Cam.
-
The Council of Witches:
- Actors: A mix of actresses like Angela Bassett, Octavia Spencer, and Rachel Weisz could create a diverse and dynamic group of witches. Each actress brings distinct charisma and talent, ensuring the council is both formidable and entertaining.
These choices would help bring the vibrant and whimsical world of "Seriously Wicked" to life while capturing the essence of the characters and their unique interactions.
