Brandon Routh as Apollo

Hugh Jackman as Starbuk

You watch and seeif he doesn't try to grab some of his buddies from previous films. It could be pretty cool if he's a true fan of the show. I didn't realize he was old enough to really have been into them when they were on TV.

Bryan looks MUCH younger than he actually is. He'll be 47 this year.

Hugh Jackman as Starbuck? Um...no, not really seeing it.

Although, to be honest, I really can't think of someone else to take the part.

Brandon Routh as Apollo, erm.....maybe?

But who to play Adama or Tigh, or Boomer, or Athena?

And of course, the main bad arse of the series, Baltar. We need someone who just OOZES evil, the way that John Colicos did.

Maybe Ian McKellen? He plays villains very well.

I'd rather see a Galactica movie than Excalibur.

I'd rather see a Galactica movie than Excalibur.

Me too.

Why don't they just use the tv series people for the film version like star trek did.

[JediJaida]

Aren't they all a smidge too old? Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict are both in their 60's now.

Granted, they both look GOOD for that particular decade, but unless the script calls for the characters to actually be in their sixties, Singer will have to go with younger actors for the parts.

Ian McKellan better as Adama or Baltar? Bruce Davison as Baltar? Or Brian Cox as Baltar? Kevin Spacey as Baltar? Maybe Frank Langella as Adama? Opening narration by Patrick Stewart.

James Marsden as Apollo. Kate Beckinsdale as Serina. Famke Janssen as Athena? Or as Sheba in the sequel? Kate Bosworth as Sheba? Parker Posey as Athena. Rebecca Romijn as Cassiopeia? Sam Huntington as Greenbean. Alan Cumming as Prof. Wilker.

Non Bryan Singer players: Danny McBride as Jolly. Gil Gerard as President Adar. Christina Ricci as Lt. Brie. Rupert Everett as voice of Lucifer.

Starbuck, Boomer, Boxey, Zac, Dr. Selik...I don't know.

[UnderdogDJLSW]

Kevin Spacey as Baltar?

That would be neat. I could see someone like Hugh Laurie as Adama.

[johnmiic]

I know, Timothy Olyphant as Starbuck. Molly Parker as Serina or Athena. Ian McShane as Adama or Commander Cain. Jolene Blaylock as Sheba. Rene O'Connor as the braided girl who says: Vipers cleared for launch all the time.

When i said use the tv series people i meant the modern day Galactica series.

[kennermike]

I bet this is based on The Tom Desanto 2001 unproduced continuation movie for FOX TV I hope so cause Glen Lasrson also gave it its huge blessing

[Werewolf]

This has me concerned.

I've been hoping they'd go back to the original series and not incorporate any of the Sci-fi series into it. They need to go back to the source or otherwise you are getting a waterdown adaption of an adaption. The SciFi series, love it, hate it, indifferent to it, was pretty much BSG in name ony as it was.

So Gabby's in this one? She another good actress whose been wasted to long.
