Check out Miss Eliza’s blog, where she makes a very convincing argument for casting Felicity Jones (Catherine Morland in the recent BBC adaptation of Northanger Abbey) as Amy Balcourt. Miss Jones does look rather as I imagined our impulsive heroine:

Any thoughts on who you’d cast as Richard?

Wow she’s perfect!

Yes, please eveyone stop by and tell me who you think is perfect! A new couple every weekend. I love dream casting, so much fun.

Since I saw “Northanger Abbey,” I thought that Felicity would be a great choice for Amy.
As for Richard, I really think Henry Cavill or maybe even Jude Law (???) could do well. Richard Armitage couldn’t hurt, either. Throw him into anything and I’ll watch it!

I always pictured Jude Law as Colin! But I think Greg Wise (Sense & Sensibility) would make a great Richard.

I’ve always pictured Richard as Rupert Penry-Jones.
