Cast for The Gemma Doyle Trilogy

Check it out! I finally got a widescreen!

Anyway, these are who I would like (or would have liked) to play whom in our most beloved trilogy. If anyone has any questions or arguments, please, by all means question me! I enjoy discussing castings.

CAST:
Gemma Doyle-Bryce Dallas Howard
Ann Bradshaw-Talulah Riley
Felicity Worthington-Clemence Poésy
Pippa Cross-Monica Keena
Kartik-Rafi Gavron
Virginia Doyle-Lena Olin
John Doyle-Toby Stephens
Tom Doyle-Jamie Campbell Bower
Mrs. Nightwing-Eleanor Brom
Ms. Moore-Lena Headey
Ms. McCleety-Susan Lynch
Mme. le Farge-Yolande Moreau
Brigid-Dawn French
Mrs. Spence-Miranda Richardson
Mother Elena-Shohreh Agdashgloo
Simon Middleton-Hugh Dancy
Cecily Temple-Kimberly Nixon
Nell Hawkins-Juno Temple
Dr. Van Ripple-Vincent Perez
Mr. Fowlson-Jason Flemyng
Charlie Smalls-Harry Lloyd

SONG: "Prologue (instrumental)" by Howard Ashman from the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack.

NOTE: I've been getting a lot of comments about the fact that Rafi Gavron is not Indian and that Gemma should have red hair (though Bryce Dallas Howard actually has red hair, but I probably should have chosen a better pic of her), so before you complain about either, please bare in mind that my first five choices were purely out of imagination and I believe that newcomers for those characters would be the best choice. Thank you!

omg this is the worst casting everrrrrrr

[FantasmaLuna]

@Cmet332 I'm sure the people who cast Rachel Hurd Wood as Gemma, Megan Fox as Pippa and Robert Pattinson as Tom would agree.

[ClarkKentComplex]

I love this cast with two exceptions. I pictured Miss Temple as more of a miniture Nightwing , less innocent and more snobby, and the actor you chose for Kartik doesn't even look Indian let alone anything like the character. Kartik is a savage, not a pretty boy.

[FantasmaLuna]

For the last time, the first five are purely out of imagination.

[darienne91]

some cool choices but ur right they are all now too old.

I have to say though on your comment about twilight you wouldnt want to miss out on a decent movie just cuz u didnt like them you know they might surprise you. I did however enjoy your cast although i have never though clemence posy was all that pretty in harry potter either.

[FantasmaLuna]

Thanks, but to respond to my comment, I am actually against Twilight because I think it's a bad influence on today's generation and I'm afraid that if a Twilight star were in any of the GDT films, too many Twilight fans would see it JUST because it's a Twilight star.

The argument that's cumulated on your video makes me laugh.

Ann - brunette. Done. Read the books. (not you Luna, other person)

Gemma - not breathtakingly gorgeous. Done. Reread in your free time.

anyways Luna my dear I love the adults you cast :D

that's the woman I've been trying to think of for so long! The headmistress in A Little Princess. Absolutely perfect for Nightwing in my opinion :)

and I really hope Juno is somehow in the movie, she was amazing in Atonement

[Draculaura95]

In the swedish books her name isn't Pippa, it's Penelope^^

[spiderlover678]

GEMMA IS A GINGER!!!!!!!

[Dubblelights]

Some of them are so good!

[TheAraberstylerin343]

@Cmet332

i agree...

[jemmirox12]

nice beauty and the beast music.

[MissMisfiter]

I L-O-V-E how you have people from BBC's shows Robin Hood and Primevil in here XDD Great cast, one of the best I've seen by far. 

[Anonymousses123]

@FantasmaLuna Megan Fox as Pippa? really shes a whore and definately not pippa like!

[Noel373]

this is amazing. Am I the only one who seriously loved Brigid?

[kevzgurl]

Who the heck is Dr. Van Ripple????! Read the entire series and rereading it right now.

[nejicookie]

Wow I love this cast! I actually agree almost with every choice :) Two that I don't like very much are mme LeFarge, cause maybe you're right and I just didn't notice her age in a book, but I always imagined her as in her late twenties. The other choice i 80% agree with is Pippa... I think Anna Karina would have been great,but she's 70 now, so... yeah ;D

And I had those 2 ideas for Kartik: Avan Jogia and Milo Ventimiglia... What do u think?
