Whom would you cast in a remake?

If she were 5 years older (at least) Olivia Cooke from Bates Motel for Jenny
For Starman, again, if 5 years older (at least) Cooke's Bates Motel co-star, Freddie Highmore.
Both would be late 20s five years from now and I think both would be perfect for the respective roles.
I figure these two characters have to be about the same age because Jenny was married to the man Starman patterned himself after.
I like the suggestion above for Ledger is he were still alive. Not sure who'd I then pair with him in the part of Jenny as Ledger would be 35 years old now. Maybe Keira Knightly?
As for Mark Shirmin (Charles Martin Smith's role)? Well, if the keep the same script where they find the album NASA sent into space and a remake was present day, Shirmin helped put together that package, so you could cast Charles Martin Smith in the same role, or perhapsWilliam H Macy? If casting someone about the same age as Smith was in 1984 (early 30s)I don't know. Have to think about it. The role seems taylor-made for the roles SMith played so often. -

Alexander Skarsgard, Idris Elba, or Christian Bale opposite Rachel McAdams
I agree, this doesn't need a remake, but sadly they are remaking it. What's worse is that the remake will be a teen romance ala Twilight.
