Let's try this again: cast L4D!

Here's my go.

Louis: Morris Chestnut. Age is a little old here, but that's always kind of been up in the air with Louis. Right look for him, though I'm still thinking this over.

Zoey: Mary Elisabeth Winstead. Would've gone for Stana Katic, but just a couple years too old for this one (sort of a running issue with getting these right). Winstead bullseye's the personality, though.

Francis: Adam Baldwin. This one was easy. Anyone who's seen either Full Metal Jacket or Firefly gets it.

Bill: Nick Nolte. See, I need to clarify if Bill's supposed to be Vietnam-old, or Korea-old. If older, go with Charles Napier.

Lemme know if you'd suggest some revisions. I'll fire away one for L4D2 on that board.

Bill: Kris Kristofferson (I think Bill's supposed to be Vietnam-old)

Francis: Jason Statham (He's just perfect, IMO.)

Zoey: Alexis Bledel (I do like Mary Elizabeth Winstead but I think Alexis Bledel is more suited for the part.)

Louis: Nelsan Ellis (Love him on True Blood and I think he would make a great Louis!)

I think Mary Elisabeth Winstead as Zoey is a good choice. Along with Jason Stathom being a decent Francis. When I saw Jeffrey DeMunn in The Walking Dead, I immediately thought it was totally Bill!<3 I'm not too sure about Louis though, I'd have to do some looking around.

Louis - Chris Tucker

Zoey - Jessica Biel

Francis - The Rock

Bill - Sam Elliott would make a hot bearded Vietnam Vet hands down

So, a thought crossed your mind? Must have been a long and lonely journey
