I'm excited about this! These have always been among my favourite novels
ReplyDeletePlease cast an actor who can do a 100% solid Scottish accent? Suggest
ReplyDeleteDarren Boyd as the young Jamie and maybe Adam Baldwin as the older
Jamie.
Okay this has potential to be REALLY awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhich Adam Baldwin?
ReplyDeleteSounds exciting!
ReplyDeleteI'm reserving my excitement. Based on BSG, I don't think Ron Moore knows what to do with a love story. It could be a really fun guilty pleasure show...but I still haven't forgiven disappearing Starbuck so no cheers from me.
ReplyDeleteYes, please. All of my options are American and not right for that character. (IMHO of course)
ReplyDeleteThe only person i can think of is Colin Ferrell. don't know if that helps? :)
ReplyDeleteyou confused me....I was still trying to figure out the correct Adam Baldwin.
ReplyDeleteI could see Colin Ferrell *in* Outlander but not as Jamie, tho.
I must apologize to you prplelight,here i am thinking Stephen Baldwin but in my i kept thinking it was Adam Baldwin! Didn't mean to confuse you,i don't know how i mixed it up,they are nothing alike!
