King's Quest 6 is my favorite of the King's Quest games, hell, it's my favorite game. But what if it were a movie?

Here's some ideas for casting if it were. Everybody post your casting ideas.

Prince Alexander - Skandar Keynes
Princess Cassima - Emily Browning
Ali the Bookseller - Christopher Lloyd
Hakim the Pawn Shop Owner - James Earl Jones
Hassan the Ferryman - Bruce Campbell
Vizier Abdul Alhazared - Gary Oldman
Shamir Shamazel the Genie - Robin Williams
Jollo - John Pinette
Lord Samhain - Christopher Walken

Why such young actors for Alexander and Cassima? How about Matthew Goode for Alexander?

You hit the nail on the head with James Earl Jones as Hakim the Pawn Shop Owner. How about Christian Bale as Alexander and Catherine Zeta Jones as Cassmima?

The people you said for Alex and Cassima look waaaaaaay too young to be the stars! Ugh. When they kiss it would look like child porn.

Watching two 20-somethings kiss is like child porn? Damn, I guess I've watched a hell of a lot of child porn... :/

And Gary Oldman is the villain because...?

I agree with Skandar Keynes and Emily Browning being a bit young to be Alexander and Cassima. Perhaps someone a bit older? Maybe Adrien Brody as Alexander and Bridget Moynahan as Cassima?

Why Gary Oldman as the villain? Because Gary Oldman is THE go-to guy in Hollywood for villainous roles. The man simply can't be outdone as a villain.

James Earl Jones is a great choice for the pawn shop owner, and Bruce Campbell as the ferryman would be frickin' hilarious (huge Bruce Campbell fan here :) The main choices of Alexander and Cassima, ehh ... if Robby Benson were younger, I'd say just cast him, but sadly he's on in years. Cassima, I'd say Mila Kunis would be perfect.
