I have always found this to be a fun exercise; to cast "Atlas Shrugged". Now it has been done, and I think they did the right thing casting it with non-superstars. But I have always thought over the years, that the following people would have been great:

Jodie Foster as Dagny Taggart:

Liam Neeson as Hank Reardon:

Antonio Banderas as Francisco D'Anconia:

Jurgen Prochnow as Ragnar Danneskjöld:

Daniel Day Lewis as Ellis Wyatt:

The guy who was the administrator on the comedy show "Scrubs" (I don't even know his name!) as James Taggart:

I love your casting of the movie. I agree, they would all have been great.

I agree with most of your cast, with the exception of Jodie Foster. The reason being that, as I recall from the book, Dagny Taggart was a brunette. And that's the only quibble I had with Taylor Schilling.

So, I think Angie Harmon would have been a better fit for the role.

I thought Jodie Foster would’ve made a good Dagny, too.
