Casting The Novel

Casting Rosa




















Bio:

Rosa, is the total opposite of Celia, Celia is nice and caring while Rosa is not. She’s cold hearted, and doesn’t see much more to Matt than the fact that he is an abomination of the human race. There’s not much more to say than the fact the she’s cold hearted, not caring, and not thoughtful what so ever.

We picked Maribel Verdu for Rosa, because she is a very popular Spanish actor with little English movie popularity. We mostly picked her because of her looks however, because she and Rosa both seem llike the mean and devious type. 

Casting Celia

















Jennifer Lopez as Celia

Bio:
Celia is a caring women, she is honest and is always smiling. She believes in the power of religion and cares for Matt as is she were his mother. She is a maid and Chief cook for the Big House.
Celia is strong and fights for what she believes.

Why We Chose This Actress:
We chose Jennifer Lopez mainly for her looks. When he both thought of Celia we thought of someone who was smaller, hispanic etc. Instantly i thought of her in the movie Maid in Manhattan and we both agreed she was a perfect fit. In the movie Jennifer is an honest women who loves caring for others, she loves her job and the children she cares but she always wants more. Corey and i both agreed that, that is what and who Celia came of to be.


Casting Matt












Taylor Lautner as Matt

Bio:
Matt is a young clone who doesn't understand whats wrong with him. He is a loves life kind of person and finds joy in the small things. He can lose his temper on occasion but he always feel guilty and genuinely upset about it after. He doesn't know why he is a clone, what is wrong with clones, or why they are so hated upon by these people but he is bound to make everyone treat him a human.

Why We Chose This Actor:
We chose taylor because when we thought of Matt we both thought of an innocent, almost baby like child. When we were thinking of actors i immediately thought of Taylor as a kid just because he had that baby face but still looked mature. A big part of why we chose him was also because of his hair. It sounds crazy but we both picture Matt with spikyish hair and Taylor just seemed to fit perfectly.


Casting Tom
















Ronald Billius as Tom

Bio:
Tom is funny, but very immature. The things he does are meant to and often succeed in hurting others. His main target is Matt but he always gets fun out of torchering Maria and other as well. He acts as if he is the biggest int he house, he rules all and he knows everything, when really he is only a child, an immature one at that.

Why We Chose This Actor:
Reading into the book we found out that Tom had "bristly red hair". We didn't know who we wanted to cast him as and it took us awhile until we had a suggestion that Ron Weasley or Ronal Billium seemed to fit just right. In the movies Harry Potter Ron was explained at "Funny but insensitive and immature". We immediately knew that Tom and himself were a perfect match. The red hair just seemed to be a plus.
