I think a good actress to play heaven


would be Ziyi Zhang, the girl who played chiyo in memoirs of a geisha. She is of japanese heritage, I think, but she looks like she could play the part of heaven really well. What do you guys think?



please don't bash me for that, it was just a thought.

To old and would never do an American TV show, especially one on ABC Family. The only thing going for her, IMO, is that she's got the martial arts stuff down.

Well, she's definitely Chinese, not of Japanese heritage. I remember a lot of people were upset that she was cast for the role of Chiyo/Sayuri in the Memoirs of a Geisha because of that.

Great idea, if you want for her own people to continue to disown her.

Meanwhile, how about trying a Japanese actress. Good ones exist. Maybe people like Shibasaki Kou or Kuriyama Chiaki?

Did you mean to say she isn't of Japanese heritage? It sounds like you were.
Anyway, she's too famous to do a TV show.
