Who would you like to see in the next movie? Or in any new Alien movie?

[Roby]

What a great thread! So many great ideas here!
I like to see somewhat lesser knows mixed in with bigger names. It's hard to find people who don't already feel attached to another big franchise. These all I think would fit in really well though!

Colman Domingo


Olivia Cheng


Mahershala Ali


Lili Taylor


Regina King



Archie Panjabi


Cliff Curtis


Zuleikha Robinson


Djimon Hounsou


Viggo Mortensen


Teyonah Parris


Olivia Colman



Devery Jacobs


Sophie Okonedo


Tatiana Maslany



Mireille Enos


Daniel Dae Kim


Amanda Abbington


Indira Varma


Tanaya Beatty

I would love to see Sarah Paulson, Robert Downey Jr, Sebastian Stan and Benedict Cumberbatch.

Sara could be the lead female, RDJ could be the captain of the ship, Sebastian Stan could be like a science officer and Cumberbatch could be an android.

Sarah Paulson would be great!

Just watched On the Basis of Sex, which features another great performance by Kathy Bates.

She would make a great Weyland-Yutani executive, or lead scientist.

Call it Alien : Avenger.

Throw in an Ironman suit and call it Alien: Into Starkness

Honestly, I kinda prefer Cameron's approach and casting unknowns for most of the parts.  All of the actors at the inquest could have been transplanted straight out of any real-life bureaucratic conference room and I wouldn't have known the difference.  That made it seem all the more real to me.

Bit like the HBO approach.
A lot of their past series all had talent that made you think "Where have they been hiding these people?"
But sometimes an actor can't shine until he gets the right part. Like Ian McShane in Deadwood.

With little or well-known actors, you already have an idea what they're capable of so it makes sense casting them.

I tried to watch it once. Got about 4 minutes into it and after hearing people drop the Big C about 60 times I just changed the channel. I can hear every other word in the book all day long, and the most violent content, but that word gets my gander up.

[SM]

Me too.  But it's worth persevering with Deadwood.

[Baron Von Marlon]

Wrong word Baron

Speaking of lesser knowns, how about including the people who do stunts?
