Help Me Cast My Books

So, I love to play this game. Every once in a while I cast my books. If you've read my Warrior books, help me out here. Do you think this would be a good cast?

This is Dean Geyer. Would he make a good Deacon?
This is Thomas Dekker. Should be Chad?
This is Evan Peters. Jason?
I'm still looking for my Rachel...
Any suggestions would be helpful!

You know, it's funny. Sometimes I can instantly cast an actor for characters in my stories and sometimes I can't.

Liam Neeson always gets a leading role. Not the hero, obviously, because he's about fifty and I write YA almost exclusively. But, he always plays a high-ranking protagonist. In my Ophelia Dawson stories, he's Joseph, elder of of the Benevolent Oldbloods, and he's in love with OPhelia's mother, a widow who's more than a little hesitant about the prospect of dating a vampire.

I agree with Chad and Deacon, but I'm not so sure about Jason. Looking at other pictures of him, I guess I agree.

And for Rachel, I say Molly C. Quinn.

Omg I love Evan Peters!
Not sure about Dean Geyer as Deacon but that's mainly because he was on Australian Idol then a terrie soap so I had a prejudice toward him lol
Hrm.. Chad maybe, but I imagined him having softer features..
Im now going hunt some more for faces I see as fitting the characters ;-P

I cast my characters all the time. I'm a visual person. I have entire notebook of 'creatures' I use to build my creatures in The Night of the Gryphon series. I also find that by flipping through my picture book I'm drawn back into the story. Which is very useful since I work on more than story at a time but also if have to do some rewrite to re-sub it.

A suggestion for Rachel - Elena Satine when she's a red head.

Why is it easier to cast male characters?
