Re: FernGully (Live-Action)
Yay! I love this one, so I'm happy it's getting a little love. Be nice if it does okay and helps the original film get a decent restoration / 4K release down the line.
Not really that particular on the cast, but I could see Meryl Streep as Magi. I'd been trying to think of someone for Hexxus though, and the best that I could think of so far was maybe Keith David? Could sort of see Austin Butler as Max, too; I'd rather he played Hercules, tbh, but why not both?
Just wishing. Maybe Galitzine though since the same studio just picked him for He-Man.
Not too particular if they add or change tiny amounts of the plot as long as they keep the gist of the tree with Hexxus being cut down, Magi's sacrifice, the finale fight and re-growth of the destroyed forest. Most of Magi's dialogue I'm the finale (about the power of creation) I wish they'd keep verbatim. Also the "Dream Worth Keeping" song / scene, and Crusta's "Can't you feel its pain?"
