Who could be the star?

It's a little off topic...but the film was 'Goldeneye'...Pierce Brosnan's first outing as 007...

Alan Rickman

... Sounds good

Or if your talking about the Sean Connery "Now" then I thinkt that he would make a good Colonel White... possibly?

I was watching 'The World is Not Enough' recently and there was one shot of the bad guy (Renard) that made me think that he would make a good Captain Black
Sorry, I couldn't get a pic 'cos I don't have the same technology as everone else... I'll try find a pic though

I don't know who Clive Owen, Paul Bettany and Keira Knightly are, but I think Julian McMahon would be brilliant as Captain Black. (And I'm not just saying that because he is Australian!

)

There's a picture of Paul Bettany further up the thread, wearing his Captain Blue hat, all ready to take on the role.

Keira Knightley is the actress from Pirates of the Caribbean

Clive Owen has been in a few things, but the movies that spring to mind at the moment are 'Closer' and 'King Arthur'.

If Hollywood had their way...

Scarlet's Eleven!

World President - Morgan Freeman (he played a president) or George Clooney (he was the president in the 'Spy Kids' movies, right?)
Colonel White - Liam Neeson
Lieutenant Green - Jamie Foxx
Captain Scarlet - Tom Cruise
Captain Blue - Brad Pitt
Captain Magenta - Owen Wilson
Captain Ochre - Uma Thurman (she wore yellow nicely in 'Kill Bill')
Captain Black Christian Bale
Destiny Angel - Charlize Theron
Harmony Angel - Halle Berry
Symphony Angel - Angelina Jolie

Okay, okay, I'm only serious about a few of these.
I'll let you figure out which ones...

I was watching 'The State Within' recently and couldn't help but notice the strange resemblence between Captain Black (NCS) and Jason Issacs! And he's already proved more than capable of being a bad guy in children's films :-D

Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2007 8:04 pm Post subject: Actors if they did a live action Captain Scarlet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assuming, hypothetically they did a live action film or something on the original Scarlet what actors and so on

I see on the updated character profiles Chris has suggested some actors and I couldn't but think...

Colin Farrell as Magenta?

I'm at a loss for others.

You are definitely not serious about Tom Cruise as Scarlet. Please tell me you're not serious? Please? :shock:

I do like the idea of Liam Neeson as Colonel White, though.

by **Matt Crowther** » Sun Mar 04, 2007 10:44 pm

Please not Owen Wilson as Magenta

I believe, that perhaps Colin Farrell would suit well. The bad boy attitude serving the former crime boss past, the Irish/American accent.

From Ballykissangel to Scarlet. ha!

Clearly, I am thinking of the original Scarlet.

(And Wilson ruined Starsky & Hutch, I emphasise with David 'The Soulman' Soul over Don't Give Up On Us Baby)

I was just watching CS:NY and am starting to think Hill Harper bears a resembalance to Lt. Green. The accent might need some work but even so.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004991/ ... what do you think?

by **Matt Crowther** » Tue Jul 24, 2007 10:34 pm

There is some similiarity. If he gets rid of the goatee then he'd be Green. And if he wore green I might be able to picture it more

In a recent TV Guide in the UK, a reader wrote in about Sky Base/Cloudbase being on Doctor Who Series 3, and if the series was to be redone with live action people then they think Russell T Davies (Doctor Who writer etc) would be idea and that David Tennant would be an ideal Captain Scarlet.

When I read that, I thought John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness) from Doctor Who/Torchwood would be someone who could play Captain Scarlet if it was to return to the TV scene as a live action series.

As for movie version, so many actors to choose from to play the roles, I'll have to give it some thought.

by **Matt Crowther** » Wed Jul 25, 2007 12:03 pm

I like the idea of Barrowman as Scarlet. I still like the idea of Colin Farrell as Magenta...both have a 'rocky' background (well, Farrell sort of has one now). And of course there's the Irish connection.

by **Skybase Girl** » Wed Jul 25, 2007 10:09 pm

Nope.

John Barrowman is way too light weight for Scarlet. Clive Owen ? Not sure.

I quite like Eric Close for Scarlet- have to admit he doesn't look like either the puppet or the CGI image, but he has " qualities", as far as I'm concerned !

Blue is difficult, because there are not many really blond actors, but Josh Lucas or Aaron Eckhardt would be good candidates.

Have always thought Charlize Theron would be a good Destiny, Uma Thurman is also in the running. They are both a bit tall for OCS Destiny, but would be OK for the CGI version !

Then if we're talking CGI, ( which I guess you guys weren't ), Halle Berry is the perfect Lt Green.
