If you still need something to get you in the holiday spirit, why not try recasting It's a Wonderful Life for this week's Recast challenge? We still want to know who would be today's Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed, as well as who could step in for Lionel Barrymore and Henry Travers. What modern actors would you cast?
Leave your suggestion in the comment space below, and I'll pick one entry to feature next Tuesday, Dec. 26, complete with a "new" cast photo.
Characters to recast
George Bailey
Mary Bailey
Mr. Potter
Clarence the Angel
Versace
Dina Bar-El
Replay
2007 - It's a Wonderful Life Recast
George Bailey - George Clooney
1Mary Bailey - Drew Barrymore
Mr. Potter - Philip Seymour Hoffman
Clarence the Angel - John Goodman
It's A Wonderful Life (2007)
George Bailey- John Cusack
Mary Bailey- anybody but Keira Knightley
Mr. Potter- Gene Hackman
Clarence the Angel- Morgan Freeman
Also, I know you didn't ask how we'd change the script, but can we? Mary Bailey really ought to get more credit for basically doing all the work while George mopes on the bridge.
