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.

 

Grand Admiral Thrawn: John Delancey

Captain Pealleon: Ronny Cox

Mara Jade: Shannon Baska

Talon Karrde: Bruce Campbell

Joruus C'baoth: Tim Curry

 

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!

 

Well if you're not familiar with Cox or Baska how 'bout...

Captain Pelleaon: Malcolm McDowell

Mara Jade: Amy Acker

 

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.

 

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.

 

Sam Neill as Thrawn.

Ian McKellen as C'Baoth.

Anthony Hopkins as Pellaeon.

Hugo Weaving as Karrde.

Vin Diesel as Ferrier.

Milla Jovovich as Jade.

John Hurt as Fey'lya.

 

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

 

Grand Admiral Thrawn: Alan Rickman

Captain Pellaeon: Jeff Bridges

Mara Jade: Dina Meyer (Sadly, you may only know her from Saw 1-3, or Dizzy from Starship Troopers)

Talon Karrde: Hugh Jackman

Joruus C'baoth: Gary Oldman

 

Thrawn: Jason Isaacs

And I agree on the very British Pellaeon.

 

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.

 

Oooooh Jason Isaacs...good choice for Thrawn!!

 

Heidi Shannon for Mara Jade. She's done voice work for Jade on two occasions already, so she'd technically be reprising her role.

Beyond that, I wouldn't really know who else. I read the Thrawn Trilogy so long ago, I can't really remember what I thought the characters sounded like. However, I do think that Johnny Depp would make a good C'Boath, like MsLanna said.

 

Grand Admiral Thrawn: Ted Sperling

Captain Pelleaon: Sir Michael Gambon

Mara Jade: Lisa Datz

Talon Karrde: David Garrison

Joruus C'baoth: John Cunningham

Yes, I know I am a few months late to the party, but MY VOICE MUST BE HEARD! Note: Most of these are very good Broadway actors!

 

Grand Admiral Thrawn: Hugo Weaving

Gilad Pellaeon: Brian Cox

Joruus C'boath: John Hurt

Talon Karrde: Oded Hehr

Mara Jade: Milla Jovovich

 

what happened to Jeremy Irons as Thrawn GrandAdmiral_Frank?

 

Grand Admiral Thrawn: Tchéky Karyo

Gilad Pellaeon: Hugh Grant

Joruus C'boath: John Malkovich

Talon Karrde: Nathan Fillion or R. Downey Jr.

Mara Jade: Anna Paquin

 

Wow! I don't think I could have said it any better. That would be a pretty sweet cast, methinks. And, I think it's Oded Fehr.

Hugh Keays-Byrne as Joruus.

 

Nah, for me Sir Ian Mckellen is C'Boath. Especially in the voice.
