hmm i think Tifa has a slight resemblance to Jennifer love-hewitt or Rachel Leigh cook (just give her long, jet-black straight hair) (just my opinion, okay)
Vincent- Johnny Depp/marc dacascos

as for the other characters... i dont know.

That's a good combinations! I'd take Jenifer love-Hewitt as Tifa! I was thinking the singer Sting for Cid.

I would take Johnny Depp as Vincent because at one time I thought he looked like Auron and my friend called Auron a Vincent wannabe, lol.

ok. i agree with some but if you're gonna have cid in there you better come up with an actor better than sting or ed harris.

Well, for once I have to agree with Prak on something. Seriously, though....

Cloud: Fabio
Aeris: Elizabeth Hurley
Tifa: Sandra Bullock
Barret: Mr. T
Vincent: Johnny Depp
Cid: Hugh Jackman
Yuffie: Lucy Liu
Sephiroth: ANYONE NOT FROM N'SYNC!!!(You may recall the horror of that already happening in Kingdom Hearts) I don't know...Brent Spiner? He's a great "evil asshole villan" actor. Just put on some makeup and he'll do the rest.

11-04-2004, 06:35 AM
someone mentioned Lucy Lui as Yuffie. Almost, but not quite. I say that cool-ass chick with the ball and chain from Kill Bill 1 (What was her name?). She would make an excellent Yuffie. Plus she already has the martial arts background.

Tia Carrera as Tifa. She is the closest looking one to tifa (And she also has the right breast size).

I think Samuel L. Jackson would make a good Barret (Think how cool he was in pulp-fiction)

Depp is perfect for Vincent.

Orlando Bloom might make a good sephiroth (Give him some colored contacts)

Dennis Leary as Cid (Seems to have the right attitude)

John Leguizamo as Rufus (Think of Tybalt from Romeo+Juliet)

Hayden Christensen maybe as Cloud (We'll see when Star Wars 3 comes out...)

Keanu Reeves as Reno and Vin Diesel as Rude

John Rhys-Davies as Heiddiger(forgot how to spell it)

Red XIII/Nanaki...?

So why don't we change the name of Barret to Jules!!! Hell no. Jules is too classic of a character to be sold as propoganda in a movie. I think the best way to go is to stretch more towards the unknown, except I did like the idea of having the girl who played Gogo, Chiaki Kuriyama, as Yuffie.

I think Jared Leto would make a good Cloud I guess. You guys remember him from Fight Club-the angel face guy? His hair was about the right blond-ish color? plus I hate to admit it(being straight and all)...but he was kinda of a pretty guy...ahem...anyway...
And wouldn't Ving Rhames make a cool Barret too?
Oh and xaos: awesome idea for Dennis Leary being Cid-I forgot about him. The attitude of them both are very similiar.
And I think Red XIII would would probably be a CGI. But I think the voice of him should be like...Kelsey Grammar?
Red seemed like an intellectual...thing.

I love this idea, It would be perfect on my opinion, and we can have Selvester Stalone as cloud and we can have them box, I mean just at the end, let somone else play cloud in the movie but at the end, with credits, see Selvester dressed up like cloud and Mr. T dressed up like Barret and just see them box it out, that would be orgasmic!

Here's the ones I can think of right now (there's usually two choices for each, so bear with me):

Cloud: James Franco
Sephiroth: Probably some unknown who'll walk into the studio for auditions and the director will say "THAT'S THE ONE! HE'S PERFECT!"
Barret: Ving Rhames or Michael Clark Duncan
Rufus: Orlando Bloom or Jude Law (some pretty boy)
Hojo: Jason Issacs or Hugo Weaving.
Aeris: Natalie Portman
Tifa: Emmy Rossum
Heidegger: John Rhys-Davies
Cid: Hmm...tough one. Probably Sam Elliot, with younger makeup
Vincent: Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp, and Johnny Depp
Cait Sith/Reeve: Jim Caviezel. For some odd reason, watching Count of Monte Cristo, I thought he'd be a great Reeve. He could do a funny voice for Cait Sith.
Yuffie: Some American girl of Asian descent. Has to be petite and very cute
Red XIII (voice talent): Val Kilmer
Bugenhagen: Bernard Hill (Theoden on LOTR) or Christopher Lee
President Shinra: Brian Cox
Scarlet: Natasha Henstridge

That's about all I can think of right now...That's about it, isn't it?

Say, where's that picture of Bloom as Sephiroth, by the way? That sounds interesting.

Kevin Spacey as Hojo? Please! If he can manage a drawn-in, pointed look, okay. But I think Jason Issacs (Tavington from The Patriot) would be a cooler Hojo, or Hugo Weaving (Elrond from LOTR).

And I still think that Michael Clark Duncan (Jim Coffey from The Green Mile) would play Barret. He's got the height (6'5"), the deep voice, and overall coolness.

Bloom or Jude Law should play Rufus. I've always pictured Rufus running around singing "I feel pretty, oh so pretty. I feel pretty, and witty, and BRIGHT!" But not in the movie, of course. (snicker).

white noize ff7
05-03-2005, 06:28 PM

Vin Diesel as Rude.

fucking Shaft as Barrett? are you mad? no way! he's too old and fat anyhow. i can't imagine that voice on barrett. (can you dig it?)
