If it were a live action movie...


If Atlantis were a live action movie, who would you cast?

I would cast Andrew Garfield for Milo. But I have no idea about anyone else.

How about Ryan O'Neal like as Howard Banister in What's up Doc with Barbra Streisand?
Kida I think Ally Sheedy? Rosario Dawson? Cree Summer?
I am an old fan of James Garner from the Rockford Files days. It was a little wierd to have him be the bad guy - he usually wasn't.

I like Andrew Garfield as Milo.
Hank Azaria would have also been good if he were a bit younger.

For Sweet I would say The Rock.
And definitely Scarlett Johansson as Helga.

Not sure about the other characters though.

Andrew Garfield as Milo would be perfect! (i agree w/ a young Hank Azaria as well tho) otherwise Joseph Gordon-Levitt perhaps

Kida: Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Audrey: Bianca Santos
Sweet: The Rock also
Helga: Charlize Theron
Rourke: maybe like Jeff Bridges or even Kevin Spacey if he beefed up a lot
Whitmore: Christopher Lloyd
the King of Atlantis: Morgan Freeman
Vinnie: Hugh Jackman
Mole: Zach Galifanakis for some reason

For once, I wouldn't be upset if they had a black woman playing the part of the princess. See, Kida already had the features of a beautiful [semi-]black warrior woman, and she was voiced by one.

If any Disney animated movie would translate well as a live action movie I think Atlantis would be perfect for it.

It'd be awesome but for some reason, audiences don't seem interested in steampunk movies. Almost all of them, including this one, were major flops.
