Ever since I saw Casablanca on TMC last Sunday I have been thinking about how I would cast a remake. As breaktime fodder, a co-worker and I have been working the names of who we would see in the roles, here are our picks:
| Role | Actor | 1942 Actor |
| Rick Blaine | Hugh Jackman | Humphrey Bogart |
| Ilsa Lund Laszlo | Catherine Zeta-Jones | Ingrid Bergman |
| Victor Laszlo | James Caviezel | Paul Henreid |
| Capt. Louis Renault | Jude Law | Claude Rains |
| Maj. Heinrich Strasser | Neal McDonough | Conrad Veidt |
| Signor Ferrari | John Goodman | Sydney Greenstreet |
| Guillermo Ugarte | Colin Farrell | Peter Lorre |
| Sam | Laurance Fishborne | Dooley Wilson |
| Carl | David Keith | S.Z. Sakall |
We are thinking of forming a casting company, now we just need a snazzy name…
I want to see William Shatner play every role. Casablanca as a one man show… A MUSICAL where Shatner sings! 😉
That is just sick.
