If I was going to a produce Othello in to a movie these are the people I would put as the characters:
Othello: "Send for the lady to the Sagittary And let her speak of me before her father. If you do find me fol in her report...Not only take away, but let your sentence even fall upon my life" (20) "My life upon her faith - Honest Iago, My Desdemona must I leave to thee." (27) The actor I would cast for this role would be Taye Diggs, I think he would portray this character very well and he has strong facial feature that's I imagined Othello would.
Iago: "I am one, sir, that co mes to tell you your daughter and the Moor are making the beast with two backs"(8) "Thus do I ever make my fool my purse; For I mine own gained knowledge should profane If I would time expend with such a snipe"(30) I think the actor I would choose to play Iago would be Adam Pascal because he can play a sorta of bad boy, and he has a soft face but can seem very hard at times.
Desdemona: "I am hitherto your daughter. But here's my husband" (23) "That I did love the Moor to live with him," (26) The actress I would choose to play Desdemona would be Emma Watson because she has a very pure face and I think she could play her very well.
Emilia: "I will bestow you where you shall have time To speak your bosom freely." (62) "I am glad I have found this napkin; This was her first remembrance form the Moor." (75) I think the actress I would have play Emilia would be Keira Knightley because she has strong features and she can look deceiving.
I think that the actors you chose for Emilia and Desdemona would be excellent choices! I didnt even think of them , but they would be awesome, they both have that certain "class" about them.
ReplyDeleteI think that you have chosen good actors. I like the quotes you used too. I do have one comment about the actors though, I do not think that Emma Roberts should play a role in this movie because she is too well known as Hermoine from Harry Potter.
