They’ve recast the movie.
I saw that and am a tad apprehensive but I’m still going to the release.
I’m disappointed, but I’ll still go see it. I thought Hank Reardon and Lillian were both perfect in Part I and it looks like neither is returning. That’s too bad.
Yeah, I got that, but I’m curious why. I didn’t think the first cast was bad.
Going with bigger names I see. (bigGER not big)
Though ironically Taylor Schilling, the girl from the first one (who is 14 years younger than he replacement), will probably become a star now cause she’s in the latest Hollywood romance movie with a Disney pretty boy pretending he can be a lead actor in major motion pictures.
And I thought Hank Rearden looked exactly like Hank Rearden too.
Bump.
I’m glad they recast Dagney and Francisco. The first Hank was good, but I would imagine that the new Hank will be just as good from his past performances. I think the Frisco character will be much better. I’ve not seen him in much, but he has the right look. I never bought the first Frisco. I thought Taylor was too soft to be Dagney. I don’t know this new actress, but I hope she is stronger than Taylor. I’d still like to see someone with a strong presence like Angie Harmon or Jolie (although I’m not sure Jolie would do the part justice).
My first review of Part I was a little harsh, mostly because of the Frisco and Slug characters. I’m sure I will be at the first showing of Part II. Can’t wait.
