Attention:
Due to the lackluster interest in this motion picture project, it has been decided by the studio that a major project will not be financially viable at this time. However, the studio is contractually obligated to the film, so it is considering other options. One option suggested has been to film Verdant Skies using Muppets. Another is to contract with an animation studio, preferably one known for its budget-conscious performance. The studio is now in touch with various producers of Saturday morning cartoons like Phineas and Furb and Blue's Clues, to see if any of them will express interest. We have also been contacted by the estate of Gerry Anderson, and at this time, a Supermarionation feature is not out of the question. Further inquiries can be directed to Right Brane ePublications. We request that only serious offers be tendered, as the day is only so long. |

![]() I believe that, due to the Northern Hemisphere vacation season, some MR "Casting Agents" are taking more time off and finding it hard to catch up with all the incoming information when they do check in to MR. [I have found that sometimes important information (posts by members / authors) is 3 or more pages back in the unread threads. I'm still trying to find out how to keep up within the limited time frame of the summer season.] Please let us know what you have going so far. Verdant Skies looks very interesting . P.S. I've been in touch with the Muppets Inc. agent and the amount they are expecting to consider this production would feed a Third World country for 5 years. On the other hand Blue of Blue's Clues may consider it if the contract includes using big plugs to his show. This would require the use of his trademark lead-up to all the clues in the story to any major event. |

Maybe tonight I'll post a list of the actors/actresses I thought of (which includes many of the actors/actresses suggested here)...
There's nothing on TV tonight, is there? ![]() (48 hours later...) Bummer! Constant browser problems for 2 days! It's taken me forever to compile my cast! But later today, I will have it up for your consideration. Last edited by Steven Lyle Jordan; 08-12-2009 at 12:57 PM. Reason: Technical difficulties... |

Okay: I liked my formatting a little better than in the forum (no offense, guys!), so I put my version of the casting list on my website for further reference. Be advised that the final list can still be changed, so feel free to continue tweaking it!
Here's the list, anyway: Sean Connery as Julian Lenz, CEO (chief executive officer) of the satellite Verdant. Michelle Rodriguez as Reya Luis, EO (executive officer) of the satellite Verdant. Dick York as Aaron Hardy, COO (chief operations officer) of Verdant. David McCallum as Dr. Calvin Rios, Verdant science advisor. Julia Jones as Dr. Jacqueline Silver, Head of Verdant sciences departments. Marisa Tomei as Dr. Valeria Epstein, Mathematician in Dr. Silver’s sciences section. Christopher Lambert as Gaston Lambert: President of the U.S. Johnny Sekka as Enu Thompson, U.S. Chief of Staff to the President. Hanan Turk as Kris Fawkes, U.S. Ambassador to Verdant. Pam Grier as Shay Vaughn, lobbyist/opportunist. Lawrence Fishburne as Roy Grand, Captain of the freighter Makalu. Natalie Portman as Anise Lenz: Julian Lenz’s daughter. The supporting characters are: Ben Browder as Lt. Hunter Reilly, Wasp fighter pilot for Verdant. Gina Torres as Lt. Goldie Maina, Wasp fighter pilot for Verdant, and Hunter’s partner. Bobby Au-Yeung as Lin Sen Chiu, Dr. Silver’s assistant. Natalie Wood as Maria Rios, Dr. Calvin Rios’ wife. Jamie Spears as Erin Rios, Calvin and Maria’s daughter. James Woods as Walter Gordon, CEO of Lusterne freight. Aamir Khan as Lemuel Carter, Captain of a passenger liner docked on board Verdant. Sharon Stone as Col. Emily Stearns, Commander of Aerospace Force One. Ian McKellen as GLIS (Governing Logistics Intelligence System). Special Guest Star: Antonio Banderas as Emilio Vasqual.

yea!
![]() ![]() I may have missed this, but how exactly are you going to use the cast and in what type of production? ** I could have sworn that I posted this question here before, but I don't see it --- sorry, if I missed your answer to this** |

If interest wanes any further, the images posted on my site will be pasted on cardboard finger-puppets and used as animatics destined for a YouTube video, in which case, Rich Little may be called out of "retirement" to do all of the voices. We still have not heard from the agents representing Daffy Duck. |

Thank you for your answer.
The gossip was hinting that the Duck was considering a new script, but details were not available. Unfortunately, there may be a slight delay in the response from Daffy Duck's agent. Although, I did see this dapper duck hanging around the fringes. ![]() **seriously.... what was the original plan to be used for and where?** |
