Fantasy Casting - Second Act

Well, this week has seen me approaching several actors and actresses... Should that be acti? What is the name for a group of actors and actresses anyway? A rehab of talent? Maybe someone could look it up for me. So while they are stewing over whether they wish to be involved in my projects I will take the fantasy casting through to the second block of episodes that have been prepared for "12 Days."


EL AMOR DE UN HOMBRE ESPANOL

Two Spanish lovers receive some bad news. But one won't accept bad news at Christmas time and is determined not to listen.



Starring:: Benedict Cumberbatch as Oscar

Oscar is the one who receives the bad news, brooding and miserable. While don't for one moment believe that Mr C, has an inability to go beyond broody I do believe he has an exotic look which would be perfect for a Spaniard in the midst of personal issues, plus I believe it would be excellent to see his interplay with...



Starring: Johnny Lee Miller as Cesc

Cesc is the optimist, the  man who sees no wrong who believes in a better future and that Christmas is about peace, love and drinking. Imagine the chemistry between a broody Cumberbatch and an energetic Miller. Imagine the flocking of young ladies when they know that they're playing lovers. Yes it may be eye candy casting, but at least these boys can act.


CAMGIRL CARNAGE

A webcam model describes the first business date she went on with a client and how it didn't come with a happy ending.



Starring: Shannon Whirry as Aisha.

For certain members of the audience Shannon Whirry is an unknown actress. For the rest of them she was the greatest softcore actress of the 90's. I am in the latter category and have to admit she is a perfect lady with a lot of attributes. who better to play a Webcam model then a former sex kitten? the role of Aisha calls for someone who can seduce you with her eyes, her smile and make you imagine that naughty things were a distinct possibility, in that respect Shannon is highly if not over qualified for the role.  


FLIRTATIONS WITH THE LAUNDRY
A party girl in an apartment block finds herself trapped in the laundry room with a man with more than dirty laundry on his mind.






Starring: Gerrard Butler as Steve.

Take a look at that face. If ever there was someone who oozed arrogance and sleaze with some enigmatic charm and cheeky sense of humour it's Gerard Butler. For anyone who has seen 'The Naked Truth' or 'The Bounty Hunter' then you'll know what I'm talking about. Steve is that kind of man, he carries a laundry basket with his arms outstretched so he can tense his muscles. Deliberately wears vests and shorts to show off his gym body because he thinks its what the ladies want. Well, buff, cheeky, sleazy and arrogant are all traits that we've seen Gerard Butler portray in a number of roles and sometimes all at the same time.



Starring: Audrey Tautou as Colleen.

Giggly, girlie, with a hidden secret. Teasing, tempting and giddy. There's more than meets the eye to Colleen, the bored party girl who is doing her laundry in the apartment basement late at night. In a similar vein to the character of Aisha, a lot of what Colleen does is in her look and the way she acts. Audrey Tautou is another one of those actresses who uses their body. Creating a mood with a smile, a glance or a look. Some of the sexiest eyes in the movie industry and a continental flair that betrays her French heritage.
