<p>So, supposedly we're getting a Deltora Quest movie at some point...despite the fact that it's been six years since Emily Rodda revealed that a company had bought the rights and we've heard nothing since. But assuming anything ever comes of it, anyone had any thoughts as to who could play which characters? I figure you could get away with using a few actors for multiple roles-possibly Endon and Jarred/Doom could be played by the same guy to make the whole swapped identity deal a bit more believable on screen. It would also be pretty easy-if the adaptation got that far-to have Lief's actor play Bede and Jasmine's actor-or one of them if they show her at a few different ages-for Faith. The only really concrete actor I have in mind is
Manu Bennett for
Barda-he's definitely got the physique for it, and it would be cool to give him an opportunity to be a good fantasy adaptation after the travesty that was <i>The Shannara Chronicles.</i>
