An Adjusters Poll: Playing the Adjusters Characters

I've started hacking away on The Adjusters #19 and I'm finishing to edit #14. So everything's on track. Also, I've just finished posting Book I to the EMCSA -- which many of you know already because that's where you came from before landing here. But still. If you like to read your stories in HTML instead of the text files I provide, that's the place to go. When Book II is over, it shall go the way of the EMCSA as well, and similarly for subsequent books.


I'm on the road right now, so I'll keep this blog post short, and turn the microphones over to you. I like polls. We had one on what you'd like to see happen to Serena and Kyra in #18-19. And I've used a couple of your suggestions already, and some of the others I will figure out a way to use later on for a different story arc. So here's another poll. A reader, Igort, pointed out a while back that Serena made them think of Jessica Lucas. Which is rather cool. And I started thinking about who I'd see as the various characters in The Adjusters.

So tell me, preferably in the comments so that we can all partake in the joy: who could you see playing the characters in The Adjusters? Pointers to pictures always helpful.

    I see in the role of Radhu:
    Adhir Kalyan

    Kunal Nayyar

    Hey.

    I suggest Olivia Wilde for Jennifer Hanson. At 27 she is a bit older than Jenn but not too much and she certainly fits the tall, hot, dark haired beauty.

    On another note, there is something I would like to ask about #12 and #13.
    At the end of part #12 Biff orders Jenn to spend one last night with Daniel and gives her instructions to wear sexy clothes and to visit him the next day.
    When she arrives at his home in #13 it seems like the moment she steps into his house and his orders are fullfilled she starts to question herself why she is there until Biff activates her 'kitten' personality again.
    So what I would like to know, was Jenn constantly under Biff's programming from the moment he activated her in #12 or did her programming faded into the background like it does with the other DIK girls? If the latter is correct then it looks like that orders made during the 'kitten phase' are still followed by her even when the she is not fully aware of them.
    If that is the case, is this a direct consequence of the different programming Jenn got from Bernie or are 'posthypnotic suggestions' possible for every DIK girl?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestions, folks. Keep'em coming.

    @Astardis - we'll learn more about Jenn's programming in coming episodes, but basically you nailed it there at the end, it is a consequence of the different programming Jenn got]. As you noticed, Jenn's a bit flaky in #13, but that's presumably before the additional programming that is implied at the end of #13.

    I couldn't name more right away so I googled a bit and came up with Angel Faith for Cindy. I have to admit that I didn't know her beforehand but her height is 5'2" and she is a sexy, cute as a button kind of girl.

    I thought about Kyra and believe Lindsay Lohan might be a good match. I know Lindsay is not the most popular person right know, but she still is a nice looking redhead.

    So, what do you think?

    Let me first state that whatever I say about this has no more weight than what any of you say. The characters are in my head and they look a certain way, just like they live in your head when you read and they look a certain way there.

    I really like Olivia Wilde for Jenn. Nice one. Lyndsy Fonseca also fits my mental picture. (But doesn't look as good in tight jeans and boots.)

    I also like Kunal Nayyar for Radhu. Although to be completely honest, I'd prefer the bastard child of Nayyar and Jim Parsons (who plays Sheldon Cooper on BBT)

    Angel Faith for Cindy's also a nice choice. I didn't know her at all. Cindy's a though one for me -- my mental image is based on someone I used to knew back when, and that's who I keep seeing there.

    Kyra's also tough. Lindsay Lohan -- from her "Mean Girls" days, I could see. Allison Scagliotti when she has her red hair I also see. Especially with a short pixie hairdo.

    When I think Jenn, I think Amy Acker.

    Interesting thought -- I'd see her more as Trish, the cheerleader from #6 and #9.

    Scarlett Johansson for Cindy. Perfect choice no doubt.

    Scarlett Johansson: didn't think of her. Nice suggestion.

    Anna Skellern for Jenn.
    Watch the first 10 minutes of the movie "Siren"(2010), and say otherwise.
    This show Jenn after and before Biff.

    How about Isla Fisher for Kyra, and Gabrielle Union for Serena?

    @Igort - Wow, Anna Skellern is very much in line with my own mental image of Jenn. Spooky. Haven't watched Siren, but it's now on my list of movies to get.

    @Anonymous - Gabrielle Union is definitely a strong contender here.

    Nice, very nice!

    Give her a pixie cut à la post-HP Emma Watson, and I'm happy to cast her in the movie...
