Who Would You Cast As Susan Calvin?

Yes, I suggested her in the OP.

I agree with the Hepburn nomination. I don’t have my copy of Harlan Ellison’s version of the script, but in his introduction to it, he mentions a cast list (many of whom, are now no longer with us, sadly), I think he’s got an actress named for SC, but I don’t remember who it was.

Harlan Ellison:

Because this screenplay is the story of Susan Calvin, I wrote it with Joanne Woodward in mind as Susan. George C. Scott as Rev. Soldash; Keenan Wynn and Ernie Borgnine as Donovan and Powell; Martin Sheen as Robert Bratenahl. You can picture them as you read. (Or substitute your 1990’s star alternatives, but if you suggest Madonna or Garth Brooks, I will have to hurt you.)

Now, if we could convince the art director to base it on Mark Zug’s illustrations, I would be ecstatic.

Unfortunately, from the looks of Chukhung’s quote, they are not using Ellison’s script. :mad:
