Luckily the whole cast is amazingly talented, so if the star is replaced they won't all fall apart. By the time they get around to it, though, Blakeney will be all grown up!

Date: 2005-09-13 07:58 am (UTC)OK, the "whole cast" is now Paul Bettany, James D'Arcy, Edward Woodall, Max Pirkis and the guy who plays Killick. Have I forgotten anyone notable who survived? Is it likely they are going to recast all the extras as well, the people we don't really notice? (You probably have noticed them. :-P)
OK, but these are very good actors, and I'm pretty sure they can manage this very well even with a replacement Aubrey. Who are the likely candidates for Aubrey if Crowe won't do it?
How about the plot? It can't be the rescue mission to save the people who are onboard the Acheron with a false doctor. ("We gave Blakeney a growt draught! Worked wonders!") But I hope we get an explaination to what happened afterwards. Loose threads is a little pet peeve of mine.
