Ari Johnson-
I'm really happy with this pick for Ari. I saw Naomi Scott on the sci-fi show 'Terra Nova' and she immediately reminded me of Ari.
Charlie Creagh -
Lol, Alex Pettyfer must be on a million fantasy cast lists for YA books but there's something about him that is so Charlie. And I loved finding images where his hair was longer like Charlie's in Smokeless Fire and then short for when he cuts it in Scorched Skies. Alex has that boy next door/bad boy quality that is perfect for Charlie.
Jai Bitar -
Thank you to 'Bookworm' who suggested Abdel Rahman El Balaa. He is as close to a Jai as I've ever seen. Yum!

I looooove Ari and Charlie's picks! Ahhh! <3 and j agree Jai seems indescribable for me haha
ReplyDelete@Jena - Thanks Jena! I know, Jai is so yummy in my head that I'm finding it difficult to find his scrumptiousness in reality :-p
ReplyDeletePerfect cast picks! So...when is the movie? Question...Who is on the cover of scorched skies? Did you say and I missed it? I saw someone say it was Charlie. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI am telling all my friends they have to read Fire Spirits and all books by you :o)
@Mauna - lol, a movie would be awesome right? Glad you like my picks :-) As for Scorched Skies, it is indeed Charlie on the cover. Jai will be gracing the cover of book three, Borrowed Ember.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for recommending my books, Mauna. It is much appreciated :-D

OMG I love your choice for Ari! I watched every episode of Terra Nova and loved Naomi...I totally agree with you about Jai...not 100% sold...kinda like dude who played Ranger in One for the Money...totally not Ranger enough for me...
ReplyDelete@Jennifer - lol, exactly! Glad you like my choice for Ari, I'm really happy with that one :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL well Sam, you will get a kick out of this then...as for The Red King, I always picture Iron Chef Mario Batali...I know, I know...very Middle Eastern hahaha...I just picture him with redder hair...I'm very silly :-p
ReplyDeleteLmao... I like to think The Red King is a little smoother and younger-looking than that, but that was genius, thank you :-p
ReplyDeleteI just read your response to my Mario Batali comment...I'm still crackin up...I can't believe I admitted that to you...I obviously didn't pay too much attention to your description of him...excited though that B. E is still leading the poll :-) I can't wait!

ReplyDeleteABDEL RAHMAN EL BALAA!!!!!!!!!!! ok he is the perfect Jai, go check him out shirtless on google, he is by far the perfect Jai!!!!
ReplyDeleteI've loved Chris Hemsworth ever since Thor. I think he could make an awesome Jai...sigh....lol.... Just give him a tan, green contacts and new hair color.... We'll make him fit
ReplyDeleteI agree with Bookworm Abdel Balaa for sure...even Roy Imad, Mr. Lebanon 2011 :-)
ReplyDeleteCheck 'em out, Sam!
@Jennifer K - I thought perhaps that was the case, lmao! It cracked me up too :-D
ReplyDelete@Bookworm - you are awesome! Abdel is perfect! I've put him up as Jai :-)
for some reason i pictured jai to be close to the guy on the cover of scorched skies. that was before i knew it's supposed to be charlie D:
ReplyDelete@Kris - I know quite a few readers thought it was Jai on the cover of Scorched Skies but I was looking for an image that represented the changes Charlie undergoes in book two... including making him look more 'Jinn'. :-)
ReplyDeleteWait the guy on the cover was Charlie?? That's what i've been seeing Jai as since started reading Scorched Skies 8o
ReplyDeleteWait the guy on the cover was Charlie?? That's what i've been seeing Jai as since started reading Scorched Skies 8o
ReplyDelete@bookworm - lol, I clearly didn't publicize that enough :\ sorry! Yes, it's Charlie. Jai will be on the cover of book three :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd again, thanks for the heads up on Abdel. He's awesome as Jai :-)
Hahaha no problem, but they better make Smokeless Fire into a movie cuz it would be the best movie evr, and i hope book 3 comes out soon cuz ur books are amazing C:
ReplyDeleteand i hope when they do make a movie out of a really good book, my image of something so holy wouldn't be ruined because of horrible actors! (like it did for my then twilight obsession. this is just imo. >_>)
ReplyDeleteI love the picks but most especially Jai. Delish!
ReplyDelete@Bookworm - thank you so much! I would love to see Fire Spirits on screen. Maybe one day! :-)
ReplyDelete@Kris - I know what you mean. Sometimes I get so disappointed by the cast choices in film adaptations of books I love. I was really happy with the Hunger Games cast though and I'm going to see the movie tomorrow, so hopefully it holds up to my expectations :-)
@Elle - thanks, Elle. I'm so happy with Jai... just... well as you say, delish! :-p
Adam Lambert for trey. I am a new reader and am on the second book of the fire spirits. Series and I found your blot and checked out the snow white comments page. And this chick. Nicole suggested him as trey and I totally follow that *HOT*
