It'd really be lovely for Bernadette Peters to play the role but I love the Angela Lansbury idea. Glenn Close has to voice the GIant, right?
Lest we forget, Blunt was also pure genius as Miss Piggy's receptionist in THE MUPPETS.
So true, I disagree about the other performances people have listed but her cameo was one of the best parts about THE MUPPETS.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
@Princeton Returns, you mean Eden Sher?! I agree. If she can sing, she'd be wonderful. I also think that even though they're very young, any if the Matildas would be wonderful. (Milly Shapiro would be my choice.)
I think casting Johnny Depp as the seductive Wolf would rule out anyone who's Matilda-young. She has to be somewhat knowing of, um, "things" as she will "know things now" after having encountered the Wolf.
I'm not saying they'll cast one of them, I'm just saying they have the talent and the ability to pull it off. I think Eden Sher, the girl from The Middle would be great, if she can sing. Or Bailey Buntain, the blonde who looks like Megan Hilty on Bunheads.
Bailey would be an interesting choice. Does anybody else remember reading about Rob Marshal meeting with Emma Stone at some restaurant a couple of months ago? Word was it was about the character of Little Red.
If Emma can sing, I'd rather see her as Cinderella. She reads too old for Little Red. Also, I have no problem with them skewing younger (13-15) for Little Red. Her incident with the wolf is supposed to be creepy and wrong. She has to have an adult sensibility, though, like Danielle Ferland had.
I doubt they would go that young. Come on. This is Disney we're talking about. They are already cutting out the one princess death, I doubt they would have Johnny Depp seducing young Cosette.
Oh, of course he wouldn't have signed on if the role was smaller. The role is going to be bigger, for sure. I'm just saying it might not be as 'controversial' as it should be (and HOPEFULLY will be).
The wolf and Little Red are a heterosexual pairing. The fifty thousand harpies that comprise One Million Moms only care when it has to do with gay stuff.
True, Phyllis, but I do recall that they through a fit over that Skittles commercials where the girl is putting the moves on a walrus and the Geico commerical where the pig is on a date with a model.
