Dreamcasting – The Touch
As you know, I always have someone in mind when creating new characters for my books. Maybe it's cheating a little, but it definitely helps me flesh them out in my mind. And of course, if they ever made a movie or tv series out of the story, I could help steer them in the right direction. So, in the spirit of that happy thought, here is my dream casting for who would play everybody in The Touch.
Lexi Morgan – A dark haired Anna Paquin. I think she could capture Lexi's quirkiness, as well as gumption and loyalty to her family and friends.
Detective Gabriel Ryan – Timothy Olyphant. He's Olyphantastic, need I say more? Where else can I find a cop with easy charm that's capable of intensity and humor at the same time?
Allison Travers- Jennifer Connely. She can look so sweet and girl next door, you'd never ever suspect her of having her own secrets.
Chloe Travers – Chloe Moretz. Love, love, love this girl. She is such a fantastic actress, I could easily picture her dealing with all of the ghosts.
Detective Tim Cooper – Jacob Pitts. Go watch Eurotrip, and then go watch an episode of Justified. 'nuff said.
Maddie Parker – Kristen Bell – because I love Kristen Bell and I like to incorporate her whenever I can. I have no idea why I've never made her the heroine to any of my books yet. Also Ryan Reynolds. Love me some Ryan Reynolds, how have I not paired these two up yet? But I digress…
Paul Spencer – Paul Wesley – He plays the nice, safe guy so well!
Neil Travers – Okay so he doesn't play much of a role in this one, but in my head I had Tom Jane as 'the tool'.
Sophia – Monica Bellucci. She's so beautiful, but I could see her slowly unraveling and spinning into madness quite nicely
Bianca – I don't know, I can never see her face!
Jack (Sophia's husband) – Matthew Fox. Every time I hear the name Jack, I think of him. It's as easy as that. Plus, wouldn't he look great in a period military uniform?
That's pretty much everybody I had a specific person in mind for while I was writing. What about you guys? Who did you see when you were reading the book?
