the crucible characters

Abigail "Abby" Williams: Miley Cyrus

Ichose Miley Cyrus to play the part of Abigail Williams because she is young and what is to be considered "attractive", and I think her to be both. She has also played lead roles in several movies and stars in her own tv show on disney channel, so I believe she has enough experience to be able to portray the character of Abagail. 

Goody Rebecca Nurse: Betty White

I chose betty white to play the role of Rebecca Nurse because she is an elderly woman who appears to be able to give off the old saint like Rebecca Nurse in the movie/play. She has a lot of acting experience so I have no doubt that she'll be able to play the role. She has a kind happy look to her that makes you think of your kind loving grandma and I believe that is good for this role.

Tituba: Naomie Harris

I chose Naomie Harris to play the role as Tituba because of the role she played in Pirates of The Caribbean. I think from the role of "Calypso" she is able to be that lowly slave from another land. She also has that accent down and is able to change her appearance to look like a slave girl.

Goody Elizabeth Proctor: Cameron Diaz

I chose Cameron Diaz as Elizabeth Proctor because she has experience, and to some people is a pretty good actress. We dont know much about Elizabeth Proctor so right now our main goal is to just get a female to do the job.

Reverend Samuel Parris: Jack Nicholson

I chose Jack Nicholson as Reverend Samuel Parris because he has an older look to him and he also looks like he has power. Jack also has a lot of experience and has been the lead role in several movies. I think that he'll be able to play the Reverend who thinks he is better than everyone else and is only concerened about his job.

Thomas Putnam: Jason Isaccs

I chose Jason Isaccs because he has that rich and powerful look in several of the movies that he is in. In this picture of him from the movie Harry Potter he looks rich and intimidating. Thomas Putnam is a wealthy man that Jason can easily portray. Also he is greedy and wants land and Jason can act out the greedy part as he has played the bad guy in his movies.

Mary Warren: Hilary Duff

I chose Hilary Duff as Mary Warren because she can play as the young 18 year old maid girl.  She has a young look and has had roles where she is more on the bottom of the food chain and is the working class. She also plays important roles in other movies where she is upper class so that'll help when she is part of the courtroom and helping with the witch trials.

John Proctor: Mel Gibson

I chose Mel Gibson as John Proctor because he looks like a hardened hard worker. In one of the movies I remember him the most from is The Patriot. He is a lowly farmer and works hard, things that we see Jon Proctor as. He has experience and is right for the job.

Goody Ann Putnam: Alicia Borrachero

I chose Alicia Borrachero as Goody Ann Putnam because of the role she plays in Narnia: Prince Caspian. She plays as the wife to a power hungry king. She has one child and wants to give him the best life possible and is kinda greedy and will betray. Ann Putnam is like this, she will betray and lie and do anything for her children. She even asked Tituba to conjure the spirits of her dead children. I think that she will be able to play this part well.

Reverend John Hale: Tim Curry

 I chose Tim Curry as Reverend John Hale because he looks like he could play the part. He has planty of experience from over the years and I think he can easily pull it off. He is a good actor and will be able to pose as John Hale.
