So the Night before I was watch The wizard of Oz the Black version and afterwords I started to think to myself. Man what if Harry Potter had a black version of it. Who would I cast and what changes would I make.
To start out first I would change the name of the school to Harlemwarts: School of Woop Your ass and Wizardry.
Hey that was the first thing I thought of when I thought of Hogwarts: School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
For casting I would put Dave Chapelle as Harry Potter.…

Percy Jackson even more so as you once again have a misfit kid who discovers he's actually connected to a secret world full of mythical creatures and magic.

Even though the live action film will likely suck, at least we still have the originals!
Happy New Years. Stay safe, love your family and friends.

OK, Faye. Faye is tricky. the character was created to be a sort of the PERFECT film noir style woman: She's silky sexy and dangerous (which many actresses can play) and thrown in to this mix is brash un-womanly behavior (backstabbing often, untrustworthy, eating Ein's dogfood) and also has a well hidden innocent side (due to her not being in her own time and all). So the actor has to be (1) super hot (2) have serious acting skills and comedic acting skills.
Spike and Jet were cake compared to this. I still haven't reached a final thought on Faye, but here are my best guesses (in no particular order)
Eliza Dusku

First, why her? She's already proven she can do all the stuff that make up Faye's personality from her portrayal of Faith on "buffy the vampire slayer". (1) sexy, (2) dangerous (3) sense of comedy & drama in acting skills and (4) occasional innocenceWhy NOT her? Well, I might be mistaken, but isn't she sort of short? (short for Faye Valentine, that is)
Elizabeth Banks

Why her? Sexy, check. Acting chops (dramatic and comedic) check.Why not her? this might sound lame, but I can't picture her as a brunette, or as film noir type woman. And Her voice isn't silky smooth like Faye's is.
Vanessa Ferlito

why her? she's got the look, and after seeing her in Death Proof she's got the moves, she has that attitude that is very "Faye"....why not her? the only thing I've EVER seen her in was "Death Proof" and her imdb just has a lot of TV shows I've never seen... I dunno if she could do this.
