Who would you like to see cast in one of the lead roles? Do you have anyone in mind?
My preference leans towards a cast of relative unknowns; it's easier to lose ourselves in the character if we don't have another character to identify them with. That being said, there are a few actresses who I think would be great in a lead role.
Let's see, there's Rose Leslie, Saoirse Ronan, Reiko Aylesworth and Amy Acker. Just think of the possibilities with a cast this stellar!

I would prefer a cast of newcomers too! One of the great pleasures of the Whedonverse is discovering cool new actors. I still wish Enver Gjokac had a thriving career lol
Whedon likes to cast his fave actors again and again (I think almost the entire Firefly cast turned up as a baddie eventually), but this time he's hampered because mostly they're American. And except for Alexis Denisof (who can do a pretty good accent) and the actual Brits (Anthony Stewart Head, Olivia Williams), pretty much everyone else is American.
However, if Amy Acker shows up as an all-powerful Big Bad with mystical powers and using her own accent, I'd be down for it!
