If this film gets made, who would you want to see star in it?

At least assuming it is in fact based off of the book, which I'm guessing it is, judging by the title (the only other way I could see that title fitting a film is if it was just a dramatization of the events leading to the creation of the titular book), who would you be interested in seeing star in it?

It is definitely a tough choice. Morgan Freeman is someone that immediately comes to mind. Maybe he could play Fomba or have an early cameo as Aminata's dad.

If Clint Eastwood and Chuck Norris got into a fight, Clint Eastwood would probably win.

This is a really good book. I would like to see fresh and new faces in this movie I like actress JaNae Armogan I think she is really talented and has great presence on camera
if they are really making a movie out of this book, I think she would be awesome.
