Cast your dream Thrawn Trilogy Characters
|
I'm enrolled in a media script writing class and for my final project I am writing a 30 min TV show script and it's going to be the first 5-10 chapters in The Thrawn Trilogy: HTTE. Basically we have to put who is going to be in the cast and since it'd be hard to replace Luke, Leia, Han, etc. I decided to make it a CGI show rather than a live-action one. Therefore, all the main characters are going to be voiced over by their original actors. Now here is where I need your help. Who do you think would be best for these parts: Grand Admiral Thrawn, Captain Pealleon, Mara Jade, Talon Karrde, and Joruus C'baoth. It can be anyone you want so don't hold back, it's all for fun.
PS. Sorry if i spelled some names wrong. I dont feel like going to look them up right now haha.

Nice work Prequel_Dreamer. From what I have seen from these characters (and mainly their voices they would all be great if they were in a CGI TV series. de Lancie would be a great Thrawn, I keep picturing him as Q from Star Trek and it'd be great. They only ones I don't know about are Ronny Cox and Shannon Baska. Bruce Campbell and Tim Curry would be great I think as the voice actors for their respective parts. Thanks for the input man!

Oh wow what a cool idea! Let's see...
Grand Admiral Thrawn: Clive Owen (maybe with his accent slighty altered). To me, Thrawn needs one of those sophisticated smooth voices.
Captain Pellaeon: This could be anyone really. Should be British, since let's face it all the Imperials are haha.
Mara Jade: This one is tough. Needs an edge to her. Maybe someone like Jessica Biel.
Talon Karrde: Bruce Willis. Karrde needs a wise-cracking, roguish voice, but can also be sensitive.
Joruus C'baoth: Hands down, I would say Christopher Lee if he weren't already Dooku. C'baoth needs that "brilliant but crazy" sound. Can maybe go with John Hurt.

I like the suggestions of Lee or Hurt for C'baoth, though Peter Cullen might bge an interesting take too- he and Lee have the power behind their voices that would match C'baoth's imposing personality.
Ronny Cox would seem to me to sound a little too weasly for Pelleon (whose last name I can never, ever remember the spelling to, so I'll just call him by his first name from now on), though perhaps that's just cause I mostly identify him by his Stargate character. At the same time, Gil shouldn't come across as sounding more powerful or cunning than Thrawn, so he wouldn't be so bombastic or evil sounding. Maybe an Anthony Hopkins type voice?

But then who would play Kam Solusar down the road?

Possibly Bernard Hill (Played King Theoden in LOTR) for either Karrde or Pelleon. Also I think Ian McKellen could be a good Joruus C'Baoth. I think he could probably act a little crazy at times while sounding kind of wise as well. Those are just guys from Lord of The Rings though, I'm pretty limited hahaha.
Love the comment about Pelleon being a Brittish actor since all imperials are haha.

Bernard Hill is way too old for Karrde but he'd be a fine Pellaeon. Though it'd be weird to see the captain of the Titanic commanding a Star Destroyer.

Throw the full ahead music from titanic in a scene and it'd be quite amusing

Woah, I really like your choices. Clive Owen would be brilliant, although to me, he's not as sharp-looking as I imagined Thrawn to be. Jessica Biel's perfect for Mara. Bruce Willis as Karrde sounds good too

Nice choice. I never thought of him but he would be an excellent Thrawn.

If you aged Johnny Depp about 40 years, I think he'd make a good C'baoth. His acting is just good, whatever he does. And he can do crazy, so well.
