Let us assume that * we* are going to make a Xena movie. Now, we need to cast actors for this movie. Let us also assume that Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Conner either are not available or refused to do this project. Our budget allows us to pick anyone we wish to have in these roles. Who should we cast in our Xena movie? Here are the roles we need to fill: Xena - The Warrior Princess Gabrielle - The lovable sidekick Cyrene - Mother of Xena Callisto - Hatred of Xena, Xena's equal in combat Joxer - Bubbling friend of Xena and Gabrielle Julius Ceaser - Emperor of Rome, Once betrayed Xena Lao Ma - Very big influence on Xena's life Lyceus - Xena's younger brother Aphrodite - Goddess of love Ares - God of War Morpheus - God of sleep Dahak - A dark god Autolycus - The king of thieves! Borais - Father to Solan Solan - Son of Xena Draco - Warlord... I know I am missing a few... if you wish to add them, please feel free.

When is the movie set? Before season 4/5, or after? Before the 25 year leap, or after? That will determine if some of the characters are needed, and if they're good or bad.

I will start... Joxer - I think Dana Carvey would make a very good Joxer Aphrodite - I did not like the valley girl feel that was Aphrodite's apparent trademark. I would like to see a more sensual goddess... Someone like Jennifer Connelly. Ares - This one is hard. To be true to the actual Greek God Ares, I would want someone strong and hard, but to stay true to the Xena mythos, I would want someone that can pull of comedy well. What about Bruce Willis? Morpheus - I am bias in this one... So please do not take this answer as serious, but I was thinking Laurence Fishburne Draco - Again, another hard one to cast... I have to come back to this one later Gabrielle - My actress for this role might seem a little old, but I think she could pull it off. This actress does the bumbling woman VERY well, but she can also pull of series rolls when she wants to. I would want to cast Renee Zellweger. The others I will have to get back to you on.

Figure the movie will start from before Xena turns good to about the end of season 3... May two...
Or, you decide...

I've given up on the idea of a movie. If it excludes LL or ROC I wouldn't be interested, and there is no sign Renaissance is concidering a feature film.

I'll have to think on it. Dealing with trolls, so my list could take a while.
