Oh, my God.
Ok. There's a new Hitchhiker's Guide movie coming out sometime soon. I just looked over the cast on IMDB, and am now shitting myself waiting to see this movie. Aside from a few questionable casting choices (Ford?), it looks absolutely freaking awesome.
First, Douglas Adams is credited as one of two screenwriters, so it won't be butchered as badly.
Then, here we go.
Zaphod = Sam Rockwell
Trillian = The girl from Elf, Zooey Deschanel
Ford = Mos Def (this sounds worse than I think it is. He'd do it ok. If you don't
believe me, watch The Italian Job again.)
Arthur = Some guy from Shaun of the Dead, I think an extra, but Arthur could be
played by a sponge if needed. Well, a whiny sponge.
Slartibartfast = Phillip from Shaun of the Dead
Now, here's the awesome one.
Marvin the paranoid android, my favorite character, will be played by Warwick Davis (Wicket!), and voiced by Alan Rickman.
This actually sounds like a decent movie, just looking at the cast. Sam Rockwell is gonna kick ass as Zaphod, the part's right up his alley.
