Chromatic Casting: Star Wars

[dealan311]

Okay fine. I bite. Here's my version of Star Wars:

Anakin Skywalker- Jaden Smith / Lee Thompson Young


Padme Amidala - Keke Palmer / Angel Coulby


Qui-Gon Jinn - Colin Salmon


Shmi Skywalker- Gina Torres


Palpatine - Ben Kingsley


Mace Windu - Samuel L. Jackson (Like I'm gonna mess with that one)


Obi Wan Kenobi- Daniel Henney / Ken Watanabe (Apparently when he went into hiding, he changed from Korean to Japanese. He's stealthy like that.)


Luke Skywalker- Tristan Wilds


Princess Leia Organa- Lenora Crichlow


Han Solo- John Cho


Lando Calrissan- Sendhil Ramamurthy


Feel free to make alternate suggestions.

Well this is probably apostasy to lots of people, but I loathe Natalie Portman period. So you could recast that role with Kermit and I'd still be happier.

Won't lie. I'm starting to ship Lee's Anakin and Angel's Padme *hard* in my head.

Well, after Monday, I may need to learn this skill of "shipping in my head," so perhaps you can offer helpful lessons:)

Hehe. Right now I'm just picturing how different the line readings would be coming out of their mouths and what looks they'd be shooting each other. Both Lee and Angel have really expressive eyes, and the shipping comes from me imagining them handling the angst and the fluff so much better than Natalie and Hayden did.
