The most fun part of fantasy football-the line up

I have a tough time with this. I know next to nothing about celebs. I like it that way. I can't stand tabloid nonsense or publicity tripe. I don't believe anything about celebs -good or bad- and I really don't care beyond wishing all the best to the actors I have appreciated, all attention when they wish it and perfect privacy when they don't.

The qualities that interest me are features (Classical painting sort for actresses) voice quality, and name. Cast to type and have all these qualities match the character. The sense to project those qualities on screen.

I take some actors and re-imagine them to the point where they are entirely ficticious, quite different and not connected to anyone.

But for this project, there is one actor who stands out as perfect, IMHO. They must have been casting for Han Solo when they chose their Kirk for ST:'09.  It's too bad CP is THE major character of another space franchise. But at least that demonstrates that it is indeed possible to recast the OT.

Of course, EM would be perfect to reprise a younger Obi. 

All the actors from all the secondary roles could do a fantastic job.

JL was spot on in those later shots. 

I thought HC did better in some sequences of AOTC than NP did in some sequences of TPM. He held his own with IM, EM, NP and SJ in ROTS and delivered an outstanding performance. At the rate he's progressing, he'll win an academy award in '14 ;)

Let's face it, HC for Han and EW for Leia (take whatever has worked and- repeat ;)

If that doesn't work out, unknowns for the two trios-cast to type. I'd go through every HS yearbook in the country to find a few thousand 18-19 year olds who look most like CF/NP, MH/HC, EM and HF and have them read (they are less expensive too:)
