• Toby: was thinking about Colleen Dewhurst who played Marilla in the 80s Anne of Green Gables movie...she seems sturdy and no-nonsense with plenty of deep running still waters.
  
• Ren: Lana Lang from Smallville
  
• Jimmy: Shia Leboeuf? too bad I already cast Zac Efron as Crozier
• Crake: young Christopher Walken. Originally had him down as humorless Adam One, but I think he's too tall for that.
  
• Oryx: Zhang Ziyi
  
• Zeb: Richard Burton
  
  • NO NEVERMIND: Jason Momoa
    
    • ok now I want to work Lisa Bonet in somewhere (...Toby?? OMG)
• Amanda: Rosario Dawson
  
• Shackie and Crozier: Mark Salling and Zac Efron
  
  
  • and poor Oates: Beliebe it.
    
• Adam One: Leonard Nimoy? The Gardener songs all remind me of the Bilbo Baggins song sort of.
  
• Pilar: Rita Moreno! Let it slip back in the ocean, indeed.
  
• Swift Fox: Kelly Reilly, who played Caroline Bingley in the shitty version of Pride and Prejudice. Girlfriend is 100% ready to seduce Zeb and man-eat Crozier and some Crakers
  
• Jeb/Black Rhino: Idris Elba
  
• Ivory Bill: John Lithgow
  
• Lucerne: Catherine Deneuve
  

This is really fun.
