» beccajean - Stephanie Plum Series - Movie Casting

I recently read all of the novels in the series and believe it or not I actually started with Twelve Sharp not knowing there were 11 prior.(whoops!!) I've always been sort of a movie person and never really took time to read, then one day I got the urge to start and haven't stopped since. Sorry, I know this is a lot of information in response to a simple question, but I hope it will help you to understand my answer. I can see why you chose the people you did for the roles, but I can't help but to feel sort of sad. I say this because I have come to realize that almost every book I read is ten times better than the movie that follows. When I read the Stephanie Plum novels the great part is I don't necessarily see the actress that would play the part especially one that we have seen in so many movies. The great thing about her character is she isn't portrayed as a Wonder Woman sort of character, she sort of is what she is. The way she is less than perfect keeps her true to her character and more real in a sense. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that I would like to see a fresh face, someone that we haven't seen before especially for Stephanie's character.
