TNG movie reboot dream casting

[SPCTRE]

Picard - Tom Hardy

I would watch that show

 

[SPCTRE]

Crusher - Christina Hendricks

I could see it, but only if Space Smoking* is a thing in the TNG reboot now

(sidebar: no, vaping does not qualify as Space Smoking, it would have to be a Star Trek like solution, for reference see: Synthehol)

*(replace with appropriate tech, be sure to include expository dialogue explaining tech)

eta: suuuper quick shop because, work

I would watch that show

It'll also be a nod to the last TNG movie with Tom Hardy reprising his role as a young Picard.

I'm surprised no one commented on my Wesley sex change. Chloe Grace Moretz, am I right?

So many good shouts here guys. Bryce Dallas Howard as Crusher, Terry Crews as Worf, Tom Hiddleston as Data, Bradley Cooper as Riker are such great choices and I think we will have to discuss this idea in our Generations episode of the Podcast tbh but I almost think we'd have to go a little younger if this was to be a full reboot.

 

[Spocklight]

Christina Hendricks can play any role ever as far as I'm concerned

Picard- Peter Capaldi
RIker- John Barrowman
Data- Matt Smith
Crusher- Alex Kingston
Troi- Freema Aygeman
LaForge- Arthur Darville
Wesley-Maisie Williams
Worf- Dan Starkey
Lwaxana- Catherine Tate
Q- John Simm
Yar-Billie Piper

 

[Spocklight]

Holllyyy... Wesley gender change is ingenious

 

[Mojochi]

Another good choice for the role, but I think Bryce Dallas Howard has the edge here - I think her eyes look closer in appearance to Gates.

Clearly this requires a side by side analysis. lol

Gotta be Chastain.

For what it's worth, when the TNG blu rays started coming out 5 years ago, SFX magazine had a go at casting a theoretical TNG reboot movie. Admittedly their list has a touch of the "yesterday's stars" about it now, but on at least a couple of them I think they did nail it. I think most of these guys could actually fit the characters perfectly while bringing something 'modern' to each of them:

Jean-Luc Picard: Mark Strong
William Riker: Armie Hammer
Data: Edward Norton
Deanna Troi: Rachel Weisz
Worf: Jason Momoa
Dr. Beverley Crusher: Christina Hendricks
Geordi LaForge: Mekhi Phifer
