Must be an somewhat repulsive older guy / delicious younger girl combo.

I'm thinking
Amanda Seyfried from Mamma Mia and Woody Allen from... can't recall any of his films.

Second choice would be Jennifer Lawrence and Hugh Laurie.

It is impossible to recast this film. Nor can you replace Roeg.

Lucy - Kate Winslet

Gerald - Timothy Dalton

Even though you posted that 5 years ago, Winslet was way too old even then. Has to be someone in their mid-20's or less.

2012 has long passed, but for late 2023? Hmm...

I don't know many young actresses these days, but off the top of my head, how about Lily-Rose Depp for the young female lead, and Jack Black for the male? Milly Alcock works too.
