I chose Caleb McLaughlin to play 15-year-old Will Holloman. He is most known for his role as Lucas in Stranger Things. I think he'd be a good fit to play Will because he has experience playing a teenager in previous roles. Additionally, his character in Stranger Things has similar traits to Will such as his loyalty and naiveness.

Riggs — played by Jharrel Jerome

I believe Jharrel Jerome would be a good fit to play Shawn Halloman. He's acted in Moonlight and won an Emmy for Netflix's When They See Us. He would be a good fit to play Riggs because he won an Emmy for his role in When They See Us.

Buck — played by Michael B. Jordan

Michael B. Jordan should play the role of Buck. He has acted in several movies such as Black Panther and Creed. I believe he would be a good fit because of his great versatility as an actor. He has been in more serious roles, but can also be a jokester, like Buck.

Uncle Mark — played by Jamie Foxx

I chose Jamie Foxx to play Uncle Mark because of his likeability. Uncle Mark is demanding but also corny because of his directing skills. Jamie Foxx has shown to be an accomplished actor in both comedy and serious films. He has acted in Django Unchained and several other movies.

Pop — played by Idris Elba

I chose Idris Elba to play Pop. He is most known for his role in the TV show The Wire and has been in several other movies. I believe he would be a good fit for this role because of his age and experience playing a variety of different characters throughout his career.

Will's Mom — played by Taraji P Henson

Taraji P Henson should play Mrs. Holloman. She is well-known for her roles in Hidden Figures and Empire. She would be a good fit because of her acting range. She has proven to be well-fit to play a variety of roles as shown by her many awards and nominations.

Dani — played by Storm Reid

eplingjm — 2024-11-25 18:54:25 UTC

I chose Storm Reid to play the role of Dani. She has acted in the TV series Euphoria as well as the Netflix movie, Missing. She would fit this role because she has won awards for her acting. She is also a fitting age to play Dani, and can also play her younger self in flashback scenes.

Tony — played by Chosen Jacobs

eplingjm — 2024-11-25 19:13:25 UTC

I believe Chosen Jacobs should play the role of Tony. His first prominent role was in Stephen King's It film adaptation. He should play Tony because he fits the description of Tony's character and is the right age.

Flick — played by Cameron Monaghan

eplingjm — 2024-11-25 23:38:57 UTC

I think Cameron Monaghan would be a good actor to play Flick. His most notable role in the hit TV series, Shameless, was centered in an urban environment.

Shawn — Daniel Kaluuya

eplingjm — 2024-11-25 23:48:34 UTC

I chose Daniel Kaluuya to play Shawn. He acted in Jordan Peele's Get Out and Nope. I believe he would be a good fit because of his prior experience. His character in Nope shares similar characteristics as Shawn.
