My sister, my husband and I were brainstorming yesterday about who could play the part of Rona Shively if I were to be able to make this mystery series into a movie. This lead to discussion about who would play Norm and some of the other characters. It was fun to daydream, but we really had a hard time trying to figure out just the right people for the job. What we came up with was this:
For In the Wash:
Rona Shively-Neve Campbell
Norm-Greg Kinnear
Charlie-Jason Bateman
Delvecchio-Sylvester Stallone
For Under Lock and Key:
Trey-John Cena
Jane-Natalie Portman? Still thinking about this one...
Ted McCafferty-Lee Evans
Sally Jacoby-Bridget Fonda
For the newest book, Keeping the Faith (not yet published)
Garrett Shaw-Colin Farrell
Although we haven't really been working towards making a movie, it's fun to dream! Got any ideas on who would make a good Rona Shively Story character? E-mail them to me here and I'll post them on the blog.
