So here it is, guys, my completely genderbent S1 Andromeda dream cast. With a couple alternates thrown in where I couldn't decide.
Sonya Walger - Diana Hunt
Juuust the right mix of Idealistic Dreamer and Dammit I'm In Charge
Josh Holloway - Ben Valentine
The Jaded Pirate with a Troubled Past and the Determination To Protect His Crew.
And can I just note that I would want a genderflipped Beka to retain the daddy issues and history of succumbing to emotional abuse?
Alt: Sebastian Stan
Enver Gjokaj - the Andronicus Ascendant
Seriously, is there any other guy who could really do this justice?
The Stern Military Officer, the Big Brother Figure To His Crew, and Exploring Humanity For The First Time. In three (or more!) different personalities!
Gina Torres - Freya Anasazi
The Stoic who secretly Cares More Than She'll Admit about the rest of the crew -- but won't let that get in her way of Achieving Her Goals: universal domination and the reestablishment of her pride.
Betsy Beutler - Siobhan Harper
...probably a little old for the role, but whatever.
Genius Refugee with a Troubled Past who Pisses Everyone Off but you know They All Really Love Her.
Alt: Allison Scagliotti
Amy Acker - Rev Bem
Wise, Maternal Figure with (you guessed it) a Troubled Past who occasionally lapses into Bitter Anger but tries to Rise Above It.
In my ideal genderbent reboot with unlimited budget, Rev is completely CGI because I don't think actor-in-a-suit does the Magog justice. But Amy for the voice, yes pls.
Colin Morgan - Trance Gemini
...please forgive the shoddy photoshop job. It's not one of my strengths.
I was trying to keep to American TV actors but for Trance had to give up and go to British TV.
Seems like the Cute Tagalong Kid who Must Be Protected, and then you find out he's really The Chessmaster
