Who would you cast?

Obviously the original casting was perfect and any re-make would be horrendous, but in a completely imaginary situation, who would you cast in the roles? Please don't choose the original cast members!! Thank you!

agree - this is a fab thread!

I was thinking the same as u - aboot the unknown talents. It would probably be the best...but I'm going to try this anyway...just need some time to think...there are so many good actors nowadays...and unfortunately so many bad ones! Just give me to the weekend to figure something out, i'm kinda buried with books from the uni to read...*yuck*

Keanu Reeves as Dale Cooper, Asia Argento as Ronette, Antony Hopkins as Windom Earle, Mel Gibson as Sheriff Truman, Ben Affleck as James, Jude Law as Harold Smith, Tom Hanks as Andy, John Travolta as Dick Tremayne, George Lazenby as Ben Horne, Jim Carrey as Jerry Horne...Uhm...And then? Courtney Love as LAURA PALMER ahahaha

 Sonia

Id only put Courtney Love in it just to have her killed! 

Id have Willem Defoe playing Ben Horne, Sean Penn as Jerry Horne, I would also have Jack Nicholson playing Leland, Christian Bale as Cooper, Michelle Pfeiffer as Norma, Jake Gyllenhaal as Bobby and Rachel Leigh Cook as Audrey. I cant think of anyone who would be a good Laura.  Ill think of more later no doubt.

 This is just so wierd! Last night I was thinking about who I would like to cast as Bobby, and I couldn't find anyone better than Jake Gyllenhaal. Then I gave the thought Sean Penn as Jerry Horne a shot, but couldn't decide...

"When two events occur simultaneously pertaining to the
same object of inquiry, one must always pay strict attention." It's just meant to be!

That's the reason why I've chosen her in the role of Laura. And in the double role of MADDY...So I can see her die two times.

I'm second guessing Jared Leto as Bobby Briggs and Ryan Phillipe as James.  Too old.  What do you think?

"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this."  -Dale Cooper
