In the spirit of April 1st, assuming you had to make a LEXX movie from the ground up, who would [b]you[/b] cast? And if you want, tell us a bit about the story too 😀
1st April 2005 at 11:54 pm #74456corvinaParticipantJesus! I don’t think you could make Lexx without Xenia and Brian. Maybe, just maybe in a theoreical series 5 you could replace Kai with Mina’s Vlad but…yeah why not! We had a screening of Wagners Ring on the TV here recently (UK) now it’s funny but it was really Lexxian, not in any overt way but just the underlying feel of thing…implied an underlying and unifying strand, perhaps Lexx could ….
April fools Lexx? Gearge W Bush to play the role of President Priest. The artist Formely Known as Prince to play Prince. Tony Blair security guard 5th class Prince Harry as Princes minion (rip his tongue out too). Patrick MacGoohan as His Shadow Ah hell when you start thinking about it it’s hard to think of anyone else being up to the job. ….
2nd April 2005 at 3:24 am #74459AnonymousGuestWelcome to the boards Corvina!
Those are some pretty funny ideas. 😆 Prince playing Prince is classic. I still can’t think of anyone to play Lyekka though, hrmm.

No? Madonna springs to mind as the ultimate ManEater. I am thinking of that scary look she had for the blonde ambition tour. Of course….. if we are talking maneater and scary, perhaps we need to save her for ‘giggy.’ 😉

Oh my. That’s absolutely perfect.
I had figured Gina Gerson for Giggy 😮
5th April 2005 at 2:30 am #74482theFreyParticipantOkay, I am thinking pretty big budget here. I would cast Ioan Gruffudd of Hornblower and Arthur fame as Kai. He has a good strong look and a good physical presence.

I think Jim Carrey would make a good Stan. He can do abject coward and then swing into minor hero mode. [url]http://www.jimcarreywebsite.com/jhughesbiopic.gif[/url]
For Xev, I like Catherine Zeta-Jones. She can do innocent and strength. [url]http://adorocinema.cidadeinternet.com.br/personalidades/atores/catherine-zeta-jones/catherine-zeta-jones01.jpg[/url]
If Prince was in it, I think Dennis Leary would do excellent at that role. He has a charmingly cruel manner that can change from light hearted to menacing from one breath to the next. [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/images/400/denisleary_1.jpg[/url]
I am sorry, but I must put my foot down. I want my Bunny and priest to be original flavor please 😀
5th April 2005 at 7:50 pm #74484AnonymousGuestBig Budget hmm?
Xev: Kirsten Dunst
Stan: Sean Penn
Kai: Keanu Reeves
790: Jim Carrey
Prince: Matthew McConaughey
Lyekka: Aisha Tyler
Priest: Steve Buscemi
Bunny: Paris Hilton🙄
I would need a nice bankroll for that one though
5th April 2005 at 10:28 pm #74485jerhumeParticipantHow about Alan Rickman as Prince?
5th April 2005 at 10:44 pm #74486YOWAYYOParticipant[quote=”LexxLurker”]Priest: Steve Buscemi[/quote]
Isn’t he that bug-eyed guy that does mostly supporting stuff? Yes, I like him.
Here’s my cast:
Stan- Drew Carrey
Xev- Julia StilesKai- Christopher Walken (ok, you knew someone was gonna include him in one capacity or another so there it is!)
Prince- Russell Crowe
790- Comic the insult dog10th April 2005 at 12:02 pm #74511RinParticipantHey guys.
I think Keanu, or i dunno, Colin Farrel would make a pretty good Kai, hmm, too stick with the sexiness, i’d even go with Josh Hartnett…..though i don’t think he’d be capable of such a brilliant role, come to think of it…would anyone?

Yes this Ioan guy. What do you think? [url]http://www.fantasticfourmovie.com/us/flash/Wallpapers/MrFantastic2/1280.html[/url]
[quote=”jerhume”]How about Alan Rickman as Prince?[/quote]
Oh yes! Excellent choice. I loved him in Die Hard and can totally see him in this. He does snide evil so well.
11th April 2005 at 8:30 pm #74516RinParticipantHmm, yea, he does look good, though ordinarily i’m not to keen on him.
Anywaay….I just watched Brent Spiner in Enterprise, i think he’d be an awesome Prince. Anyone agree?
11th April 2005 at 9:47 pm #74525iStanParticipantOff of the top of my head:
Stan- Johnny Depp
Kai- Keanu Reeves
Xev- Bette Midler
790- iPod (to get the youth demographic)12th April 2005 at 2:02 am #74526theFreyParticipantAwww, Johnny would make a cute Stan. 😀
But really, an iPod? Why not a Sony PSP? Or better, the untimate in eviiiiiiiil a MicroSerf X-box? 😈 😛 😈
12th April 2005 at 9:49 pm #74531RinParticipantHey yea!
Jonny Depp would be cool!13th April 2005 at 8:52 pm #74539JhevzParticipantHi Fellow Lexxians,
The people I’d cast are:
Kai: Johnny Depp or Don Henrie
Stan: Colin Baker or Jim Carrey
Xev: Marie Osmond, Sarah Jessica Parker, Faye Grant
Prince: Michael Ironside or Robert Englund
Lyekka: Jane Badler or June Chadwick
Priest: Marc Singer or Jeff Yagher
Bunny: Blair Tefkin or Don’s girlfriend, Gina
Giggerota: Jane BadlerLexxians Unite,
Jhevz 😉15th April 2005 at 6:14 pm #74578AnonymousGuestMarc Singer would make a prett awesome Prince as well as Priest, now that I think about it 😀
Nice list Jhevz.
16th April 2005 at 12:52 pm #74586corvinaParticipantYeah despite everything I said before I’d go for Johnny Depp as Stan – Inspired!
Thing is guys although XEV is beautiful, Xenia ain’t yer obvious hollywood plastic bimbo. Instead she has a wonderful quirky fragile beauty, she isn’t classically pretty, which is why she’s attractive and sexy to girls too! I just can’t think who could replace Xenia
Anne Parillaud (Nikita) Kristen Johnston (Sally – 3rd Rock)
hmm.
18th April 2005 at 3:08 pm #74598RinParticipantHow about Anjelina Jolie for Xev?
18th April 2005 at 9:31 pm #74610corvinaParticipantI thought about Angelina but I’m not sure… superficially she’s too much like Xenia and Xenia really made Xev her own….
but how about Jolene Blalock..now if you can get past her Enterprise character I really thing she could make a brilliant XZEV
cheery bye
