Emily seems young enough, which is cool. But does she ever smile? She looks fed up in all those pics :(

Alyson Hannigan rocks though - And forget movies she was in, she was in Buffy! :jump:

If they could shrink her properly, shes actually a pretty great idea me thinks :D

She can play the light hearted side so well, and still get geared up for a battle.

Good ideas Polip :)

She seems to be a logical choice, she can act, and she's small.

Just a little bit of hair dye and some make-up should make her look like Holly.

But I guess we have to wait.

*sigh*

I like the Alyson Hannigan idea and the Emily Browning idea is cool (maybe that's cause i know her) but i prefer Alyson Hannigan.

I like tha Alyson Hannigan idea too! Yeah, she's Buffy's best friend.. and never would I get rid of her "Willow" image.. well not until she gets cast as Holly. ^_^


As for Emily Browning.. well yeah, she looks youthful and she's got full lips--an important factor, in my opinion, because Colfer had to add that Holly has "cherubic lips". :)

I'm still a strong supporter of Keira Knightley. Obviously they would make her shorter on the computer, since there are VERY few actresses with normal proportions who are a meter tall. Alyson Hannigan looks like she could do it, but Emily Browning is too young in my opinion. Holly is meant to look as though she's in her mid-twenties. Any non-platonic relationship Artemis has with her occurs in his teenage-boy imagination.

All of the suggestions so far sound really good, I'm not sure about it but what about Winona Ryder? She may be a bit older than Holly would be, but this picture kinda shows what I mean...

I think that Winona Ryder would be perfect. Keira Knightley or Alyson Hannigan are great too.

Alyson Hannigan would be great! She has something Holly-like in her... I think it's something about her smile. <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>I hope she CAN act at least good...</span>

Emily Browning - rather not :nope: . She's too young, and, what's more important, she's too melancholic.

Keira Knightley - :hand: NEVER!!! She acts quite good, but her previous parts were... how to say it... sad, proud and beautiful. She couldn't become energetic and temperamental Holly.

(just saw ClaireB's Winona Ryder pic)

YES. Big and Definitive YES. That's Holly. Maybe not Holly that I imagined, but they will never find somebody who will satisfy me...
