too cute

[queenitsy]

I love Sterling Knight a lot. (This is not a secret.) And thus I can not stop watching this video:

Around a minute in, he gets super intensely dorky... about Power Rangers. And babbles extensively. And it is sincerely darling. (Also: how is he TWENTY?? He looks 14. Tops. And I say this as someone who's 26 and looks 20, tops.)

I have decided that he shall play Billy when the rumored Power Rangers movie/reboot happens. Corbin can play Zack, and Jennette McCurdy and her awesome hair can play Kimberly.

Of course, knowing what I know about Disney I can only assume that Vanessa will play Kimberly and Zefron will end up as Tommy and then I will throw things.

(Yes, I have spent two hours thinking about this. But I still need to cast Trini and Jason.)

First, as much as I love Corbin, might I humbly submit Chris Warren Jr. for Zack? At least if you're going for physical similarities...

For Trini, I can only think of two actresses of Asian descent from the current crop o' tweens, how sad is that? My love of Brenda Song knows no bounds (bonus: she's an actualfax black belt); and you've also got Anna Maria Perez de Tagle.

Jason... *ponders*

But can Chris Warren Jr. dance? Dancing is Zack's big defining characteristic after all.

Brenda Song = totally Trini. jedinewsie, queenriley and I have been casting people all morning through twitter.

The Cast:
Zack: Corbin Bleu, but maybe Chris Warren Jr.
Kimberly: La Tis
Billy: Sterling Knight
Trini: Brenda Song
Jason: David Henrie
Tommy: Zefron
Skull: Jason Earles

We still need a Bulk and a Rita.

Watching that I just thought that if I were a 20-year-old guy and my job consisted of holding a plastic flower and pouting for BOP or whatever, I would kill myself. Poor Sterling.

[queenitsy]

I thought that as well. Poor SK. He's a good enough actor to escape! Run away, Sterling!

[wordsalone]

He is seriously the most adorkable thing ever.

[queenitsy]

Right? I kind of love him in a cute-little-brother way.

Um. I don't know who he is but I LOVE him. Thank you!
