One of my favourite ways to waste half an hour on nonsense: The casting game! Basic question is, in a movie or TV Series of your life, who would play you? The JvS twist, might be obvious; in a JvS Movie or TV Series, who would play your character? I think it's important to really consider your character properly, and which actor could play him right - don't just pick someone cool or someone you're a fanboy/girl for! What you want is the Actor who hit's the nail on the head - the Robert Downey Jr to your Tony Stark. Things you can do: - Age an actor up a little bit, or use an Actor at an earlier stage in their career.
- Shave them, grow a beard on them, dye their hair, put some contacts in.
- Have them apply a specific accent if they've shown they can do it.
Things you can't do: - Mix and match your actors - One actor as a whole, not a bit from one, a bit from another.
- Have an actor do something they cannot do - so if an actor is short, you can't make him tall. If he's shown he can't bulk up very much (Looking at you, Cumberbatch!) you can't make them muscley. The exception to this is if they are voicing or playing a character in a costume or motion-captured CGI. So if they're playing a Wookiee or a Yoda or whatever.
- Use an Actor already in Star Wars in a major way.
- Cast yourself!
That's probably it.

I'll go first. These are a few from around Yavin
Dav Man'Sell: Henry Cavill, with his native posh-boy British accent.
Been looking at Cavill for about three or four years, thinking he might be perfect for Dav, but wasn't certain until I saw his Superman.
Jago Pulastra: Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Ronan Starflare: Chris Pine.

Seleevan Khar- Played by: CGI, he is a freaking vor, and I hate the "rubbersuit" thought. Voice? Michel Ironside. Awesome voice. He also could get through sels grim jokes perfect, beside being that grimm military man.
Atia: Michelle Pfeiffer, catwoman era.
Duke Australis: Ron Perlman. Peroiod.

I agree with the Joseph Gordon-Levitt for Jago Pulastra. I'd pay to watch that.

I'd say Liam Neeson, but since he's already Qi-Gon Jinn...
Um, I'd need someone who could capture the quirky part of Dev and the serious part. For that, I think, I may have to pick Zachary Levi. Hopefully, that's not just because I'm a fanboy... Maybe Brandon Routh...no, I still think, I'm going to go with Zachary Zevi. Final answer.
As for me, IRL, Zach Galifianakis. (though, tbh, he'd be hilarious as a Jedi, too)

It used to be that I thought Adi would be best portrayed by someone like Paul Bettany, or even Brad Pitt if he would reprise an Achilles-type role...but more recently, as my avatar shows, I believe Kellan Lutz would do it....more in his 'Arena' persona though.
