New Discworld Movie Casting Poll

Results | Messages

This is a poll for fans of the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. Weta Workshop, in case youÃÂre wondering, is the special effects company that did The Lord of the Rings, and in my extremely biased opinion as a New Zealand Tolkien geek, it leaves Industrial Light & Magic for dead.

So after each characterÃÂs name, select the best actor to play them. If IÃÂve left someone out who you think would be really good, donÃÂt hesitate to use the message board.

Actually, this whole poll is pretty much moot now.
