Final Fantasy 7 movie.

[Sorceress Fujin]

First off, DON'T make it an anime. Too cutesy. Most of the suggestions are good but here's my cast list (note: this is purely theoretical. I'm not saying this would work in real life.)

Cloud-Orlando Bloom
Barret-Mr. T
Tifa-Jennifer Garner
Aeris-Natalie Portman
Red XIII-voiced by Val Kilmer
Cait Sith-voiced by my suggestion for Reeve
Vincent-Johnny Depp
Cid-Kiefer Sutherland
Yuffie-Mandy Moore
Sephiroth-James Marsters (Spike from Buffy)
President Shinra-Brian Doyle-Murray (Noah Vanderhoff from Wayne's World)
Rufus-Leo DiCaprio (After all, he did play a con artist in Catch Me if You Can.)
Heidegger-Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid from Harry Potter)
Scarlet-Michelle Pfeiffer
Reeve-Benjamin Bratt (I've always visualized Reeve as being younger than Kevin Spacey.)
Palmer-Danny DeVito
Hojo-Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith from Matrix)
Reno-Marshall Mathers (aka Eminem)
Rude-Vin Diesel
Tseng-Rick Yune (the Asian guy from The Fast and the Furious)
Elena-Brittany Murphy
Don Corneo-Rodney Dangerfield
Bugenhagen-Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid
Shera-Sandra Bullock
Lucretia-Kate Beckinsale

oh my gosh...Wow....I think you put alot of thought into that list.I can see every one of the actors you listed as each character.Its amazing.If there was a Final Fantasy 7 movie,this lisy of characters might be some of the actually cast!

[Sorceress Fujin]

yeah... I was kinda bored last night (not to mention insomnia from hell) I must have been working on that list for about an hour or so. Hojo and Reno were probably the hardest characters to think of actors for. Any ideas on who could play Zack? That was the only character I missed.

[Liquid Glass]

Orlando bloom, just dyed black hair spiked down.....

[zacks_clone]

well...orlando bloom would work...cept for the sceans with both Zack,Sephiroth and Cloud...They could blue screan and that sorta thing with the computer...but I think it would be better with an actor in that role...hmm....No.Im afraid i have no ideas what so ever

*sigh* and.... I know I'm gonna sound really greedy about this but...... I WANNA PLAY AERIS!!!! Everyone says I look more like her then anything and anybody! I was born with the bright green eyes, long wavy silky chocolate brown hair, pale soft skin, the shortness (I am short *cries* but as long as I'm her height, I'm happy ^_^) and according to most... I even act like her! Before the game even came out they said I'd acted like her, pure hearted, and lovable towards the guy I liked, as well as playful.... well... I'm trying to stay pure hearted, but I've failed a class... I feel terrible... *sigh* but...the only difference between the real her and me is the age... I'll be 22 in 6 years though! but.... yeah I think I sound greedy saying all that...

NOW THAT I HAVE A SCANNER... I'll prove to you all that I look exactly like her I promise! As soon as my film develops though..... (Sorry everyone too.... I've dyed my hair for my friend at TFF with the s/n SeiferAlmasy so it's like a reddish now.... I kinda regret it now though....... >_<) But yeah, you'll all see ME soon ^_^

SAME HERE! i was born with green eyes, milk chocolate colored hair, and light skin, but my hair is still that color. [my parents wont let me dye it] im going to go to my friend's house to scan my picture ^_^ it has her in it too.. she lewks like lenne.. haha.. with straight long hair.. brownish-blackish.. and she cut the front for bangs when she was in 3rd grade.. muhahaha.. i thought they based lenne on her at first.. hehe.. she looks like her too.. kinda tannish skin.. etc.. just needs to be taller! lolz.. [[i sounded SOOOOOO greedy..]] muhahaha... =D

[EveningCross]

Ok here goes. I haven't read anybody else's posts yet. I just skipped to the bottom to add mine so I apologize if someone else has already chosen these people. I don't necessarily like these actors but they seem like they could play the parts pretty well.
Rufus: Brad Pitt?
Hojo: Christopher Walken or Nicolas Cage? (Prophecy and Gone In Sixty Seconds respectively)
Elena: Reese Witherspoon? (Legally Blonde)

Edit: And that guy from Star Wars: Episode Two could play Cloud. You know, Hayden Christianson (Anakin)

Edit #2: Rude is black?

No. But there are numerous doujinshi's (professional fan comics) out there. A great deal of them hentai.

I love Orlando Bloom as Cloud, and I think DJZen said about not fitting because he's British was in reference to the accent. It wouldnt fit with the rest of the characters. Tifa would have to have one as well, as would the rest of the residents of Nibelhiem.

I love all the ideas floating around. We all know if this WAS made into a movie it wouldnt be much of anything. It'd probably suck. That's not what we're here to talk about, we're discussing potential actors.

And yes, the FF animes sucked. Oh how badly they sucked...

[Strider]

I'm gonna steal Sorceress' list to make my own cast. . .

Barret - Michael Clarke Duncan
Red XIII - voiced by
Cait Sith - voiced by Jon Favreau
Vincent - Hugh Jackman
Cid - Harrison Ford
President Shinra - Jeff Bridges
Rufus - Matt Damon
Heidegger - Dennis Franz
Scarlet - Cate Blanchett
Reeve - Jon Favreau
Hojo - Jack Nicholson
Reno - Christain Bale
Rude - Don Cheadle
Don Corneo - Michael Caine (so what if he's not big and fat? he's a damn fine actor who could pull this off)
Shera - Linda Fiorentino
Lucretia - Jennifer Aniston

[zacks_clone]

you forgot cloud.you know.harrison ford may make a good cid

[GrimmReaper]

Jessica Alba would make a great Tifa...

Who the is Jon Favreau??

I don't know why I didn't think of it when I was writing my big huge list, but I was in the video store today looking at the cover of The Prophecy, and it occurred to me that Christopher Walken would make an excellent Hojo. Heh...

[EveningCross]

mumbles in sleep...

...hmmmm.... if harrison... ford didn't... didn't want to play cid... maybe... maybe keifer.... snore... sutherland could. Snort... and joaquin.... snort, COUGH!... phoenix (you know, from gladiator and signs) could.... play reno.
Splurt. Sputter. ...oh well...

[VexKen]

I dont think square would make another fully cg film after how well the last one did, it would cost too much. But a live action i could see happening. Anyway cast:
first of all i would like to say that jet li is about forty so he is a perfect tseng
cloud: heath ledger, i dont know why its just a gut reaction.
sephiroth: johnny depp, hes great at dark characters
barret: has to be michael clarke duncan
rufus: colin farrell
caith sith: alan cumming, hes the same type of annoying
aeris: alison hannigan
tifa: angelina jolie, shes good at playing out of porportion game characters
vincent: keanu reeves, all he has to do is look moody
reno&rude: ray park and samuel l. jackson

Yay! Someone finally resurrected this thread! Like VexKen said, I don't believe Square would make another CG movie, seeing how FF:TSW flopped. A live action movie might be cool in theory, but probably wouldn't work in real life. If it was an anime, I wouldn't even bother. An anime wouldn't fit the dark mood of the game.

Sorceress Fujin had some pretty good suggestions for the cast. Rick Yune, Johnny Depp...

Though Colin Farrell might be better as Reno.
