I loved the Payne one. And the Judge one. And pretty much all of them, although I feel the Payne and Judge ones should *definitely* happen.

Also I shall not rest until Edgeworth = Benedict Cumberbatch.

I have to admit, I considered him, but in the end the appearances were too different—and strangely enough, his voice is too deep for Edgy, in my opinion. LOL. But trust me, you shall see a very hot and brooding Edgeworth in the near future... ;)

Interesting choices.

Now I might be jumping ahead a little, but what do you think of, say, Ian McKellen as Manfred von Karma? Or Rhys Ifans as Kristoph Gavin?

Ian McKellen will show up, but not as von karma ;) And Rhys would actually make, I think, a STUNNING Palaeno. Thanks for the FC idea! He was tripping me up :/

You're welcome! :)

I've liked idea of casting American actors and actresses in Ace Attorney roles ever since I saw the actual Ace Attorney movie.

Also, how about Willem Dafoe as Redd White, Ben Kingsley as Querqus Alba, and Ellen Page as Vera Misham?

I can admit, now that you've mentioned them both, one of my fancasts—Ian Mckellen is Alba :karma: And Ellen Page will show up too! There's someone she looks even more like just around the corner... :godot: Dafoe is great, though, just might have to use that... I was seriously considering Colin Firth for Redd at this point, lol.

Note: some of mine are models, not actors, because I couldn't find satisfactory actors and/or the models look too much like them to pass up. And expect a couple instances of race bending! :D Yay for diversity!

Updated through 1-2, cast as follows:

Maya Fey = Yang Zi
April May = Cameron Diaz
Redd White = Colin Firth

You know, it'd be nice if they ever did an American Phoenix Wright movie with professional Hollywood actors and actresses. But guess what? There's no chance in hell of that ever happening. Hollywood would NEVER finance a movie that's based upon an obscure video game series about lawyers. It simply isn't marketable. And that's also the reason why most video game movies suck. Because Hollywood takes liberties in order to make a profit. The Ace Attorney film by Takashi Miike was good, but that's because it was made by Japanese people who understand and respect the material. Hollywood, like any other big corporation, doesn't care. I just hope that they don't screw up the Metal Gear movie.

They won't. They wouldn't trust it to succeed, so they wouldn't put effort into giving it a good script/director/cast, wouldn't market it, it would flop... and then they'd point to it as an example of why video game movies fail. Like what they do with female-centric movies. It's a bad circle.

My dream would be for this to become a BBC Sherlock-type miniseries, with 8-10 episodes (2 for each case to allow enough time for everything) per season (game). That could become really freaking cool.

Unlike Ace Attorney though, I feel that Metal Gear is marketable. The series has a wide fan-base and there's plenty of great action scenes. Hideo Kojima is said to have close involvement with it as well, so I don't think it will be absolutely terrible.

I think Ace Attorney is more suited for an anime. The producers of the video game series even said that they would do it with the the right circumstances.

Personally

Jack Black as Sal Manila
I mean really, he's absolutely perfect for it! xD
The Guy already looks and acts enough like him in the first place anyway.

EDIT:

Oh and either Adam Sandlar or Jim Carry as Dr Hotti :P
I mean come on.......

As soon as I want to believe basically it was a fan made. For starters, you/I must think if this is genuine or not.

I really, really love the Winston Payne! I never would have thought of Dakota Fanning as Ema, but I think it's a good choice. Hayek as Vasquez is great also.

For me, I always imagined Jennifer Aniston as Lana. Something about her long hair always reminds me of Lana.
Jayma Mays as Ema. I'm not much of a fan of Glee, but when I did catch an episode, she really struck me as being a good Ema.
Either Matthew Morrison or Jake Gyllenhaal as Phoenix Wright.
For some reason, I always imagined Brian Blessed being Udgey. That would be pretty hilarious now I think about it.

I can see Jayma Mays, she's adorable.

Gyllenhall as a cowboy was just goo perf of an opportunity to pass up, ya know? And for some reason, I read Phoenix as part Asian, hence Daniel Henney my goofball <3

Updated to add 2-1: Alia Shawkat as Maggey and Ezra Miller as Wellington!

Jayma Mays? I was actually tempted to cast her as April May.

And Brian Blessed as the Judge is pure brilliance! :')

Ace Attorney being made into a mini series would be amazing! Will it ever happen? Probably not, but a girl can dream.

I also love most of your casting choices! Very well done. There's a few here and there that I wouldn't personally cast, but nothing that I completely disagree on. I can't wait to see the rest!

Jamie Campbell Bower as Max Galactica
Nicolas Cage as Moe
Rosie Tupper as Regina Berry
Lee Pace as Benjamin Woodman
Jesse Williams as Acro

also, I'm super-torn: Liu Wen or Olivia Munn as Mia? Olivia is half-Chinese, so I suppose she could be Maya's half sister... ugh, idk.
