If you know me even a little bit, you know that I LOVE the Lorien Legacies! I haven't watched the I Am Number Four movie though, because the casting makes me angry. Here is a cast of actual teenagers rather than 30 year olds. John - Gage Munroe He is 15 at the start of the series!! The actor in the I Am Number Four movie was 21 at the time of filming and looked even older!! Gage Munroe actually looks about the right age, he's blond (as John is described to be) and looks athletic. Sam - Callan McAuliffe He actually plays Sam in the movie, and I'm cool with that. He fits the character's description and was 17 at the time of filming. He'd obviously be too old now, but at the time he was a good fit. Sarah - Elle Fanning Sarah's casting is the one that makes me most angry, as her actress was 25 at the time!! She could have finished College and had a Full-time job but instead she's playing a freaking sophomore in High School! Nah... Elle Fanning is stunning and also blonde, so she fits the character description. She's also an appropriate age! (I didn't realises how many of these characters are blonde? Wow.) Eight - Aramis Knight Aramis unfortunately doesn't have black hair, but nothing that can't be fixed with a bit of hairdye! ;) Six - Isabella Gomez I LOVE Isabella Gomez and Six is my favourite character in this series. The fact that she is kind of hispanic looking gives me the opportunity to cast one of my favourite actresses as her. Seven - Piper Curda Seven is described as having long brown hair in the book, and as she's grown up in Spain I wanted to make sure she looked the part. Five - Rico Rodriguez He's described as being short and stocky, which Rico is. His race or hair colours or whatever are never mentioned ( I think ) so I went with hispanic because why not. Nine - Zachary Gordon He looks a bit young in this picture, but he looks older in real life. He's got dark hair and he's good looking, which fits his character. Ella - Francesca Capaldi A cute little readheaded girl. That took me aaages to compile! Let me know if you have any other suggestions for actors!!
