spike: the main character from “across the universe” because he looks about the age spike is in the show(27)

jet: ving raymes because i think the voice and attitude match well

faye: f**k if i know, not any of the names posted so far

ed: another good question

vicious: this could be a possible johnny depp roll, not really a fan of his, but i draw another blank on this and he’s the only name that remotely comes up

julia: oh, the angel of the underworld herself…it would have to be someone thirty something, cuz if im right, i beleve shes older than spike…a cougar if you will. ill agree with nicole kidman

and i think to do this correctly, it will have to be a trilogy…just a thought

I think Camilla Belle should play Fei, Spike should be Edward Norton with poofy hair

how about instead of angelina jolie for faye(like so many of you said)you actualy get someone young and attractive.

Ok, now i am very impressed so far in what i have read these comments about the cast roles…

Hiroyuki Sanada as Vicious
Keanu Reeves or Aaron Lazar as Spike Spiegel
Kate Beckinsale as Faye Valentine
A trained Welsh Corgi as Ein
AnnaSophia Robb as Ed
Ron Pearlman or Ving Rhames as Jet Black
Charlize Theron as Julia

Ok everyone check this out, if Hollywood ever happens to alter and plans to put a familiar character in the beginning
of CB live action film (franchise), like i don’t know, shall i say along the long the lines as….Grencia Mars Elijah Guo Eckener or Gren for short, who would play the perfect role for the character?

At first i would believe they might put an actress to play the role instead of a man (with a female figure/boobs), so anyway, at first i was thinking Kate Beckinsale, (take her out as Faye and have her play as Gren, and have Angelina Jolie as Faye.

So what you think? ‘Cuz from what i have been reading online, and already in the Anime Magazine that Cowboy Bebop is already under development, so think fast…lol

Ok first of all.

Spike - Johnny Depp (A little cliche yes, but as far as attitude, height, weight, physical likeness goes… He is perfect. And he isnt an awful actor, who by the way has plenty of gun fights under his belt.)

Jet - Jeff Bridges (Once again, likeness and acting would be perfect.)

Faye - Charlize theron (In my opinion a great role for her to play.)

Vicious - Hiroyuki Sanada (He is pretty much a big deal. There isnt anyone I can think of who would be better to play him.

Ed - AnnaSophia Robb (To be honest, of all the child actresses out there, she is the best pick. The others are less lively.)

Julia - Nicole Kidman (She has it all for this character.)

on another note heres the blighty cast for bebob.

christain bale -spike
kate beckinsale- faye
robbie coltrane(lol) - jet
ed - any obnoxious kid actor seen on cbbc
ein - one of the queens corgis
Vicious - paul bettany

also i think if think they should get chan - wook park to direct. watch any of the vengence trilogy and you’ll understand.

are you guys on crack or something. david tennent would make an awful spike. he’s cool just in a completely different way.

Also why can’t an englishman or someone from europe play any of the characters. last time i checked spike was from mars.

anyway i think. John Cusack for Spike (Watch grosse point blank and you’ll understand)

micky rouke for jet (hes both old and gruff enough)

I could agree on mila kunis for faye (So long as she doesn’t f**k up in max payne and i can get the thought of her in family guy out of my head)

Ed - would be good played by an unknown. be good to give a young actor a break.
