If Kristen Bell is your Jerica/Jem, the wickedly talented Idina Menzel would be a nice wink to Frozen fans.

Totally campy? RuPaul is probably available. Looking for an archly comedic tone? Helen Mirren would do nicely. Famke Janssen is probably exactly the type you want, but you can go bigger on star power. The Possibilities: Playing things largely straight? A Charlize Theron or a perhaps a Viola Davis.
THE DEFINITIVE MISFITS DISCOGRAPHY MOVIE
There are literally no restrictions, so basically the tone of your movie should dictate. Synergy only appears on a computer screen, so here is your chance to go hog-wild with a high-profile cameo. The Pick: Matt Bomer might be a shade too old, but he's only three years older than Kristen Bell, and more importantly, as his role in Magic Mike proved to great effect, he's a walking Ken doll. Aaron Taylor-Johnson works better as a semi-jerk. Jai Courtney is the new hot thing but can he play dreamy good-guy? Would we want him to? Liam Hemsworth is too boring. Jared Leto has lost a good bit of his Jordan-Catalano dreaminess (and his Oscar win has probably upped his quote a bit). Channing Tatum would let you sell the movie on Channing Tatum, but he's at his best in roles that are way quirkier/funnier than this would allow him to be. The Possibilities: This is your basic "round up all the hot young things" role, so seriously, have a blast. He doesn't really sing, so you've got a bit of leeway there. Rio's distinguishing characteristic is that he has purple hair and nobody else seems to think this is strange. Jerica/Jem's major love interest is a bland fella with the soap-opera name of Rio. Rihanna could work here (though would probably pull too much focus). This is also the prime position to do a little stunt casting, since Roxy especially doesn't really do much but sneer and sing. Ashley Tisdale is probably not as aggressive as Pizzazz would need to be, but Krysta Rodriguez would be a fantastic Roxy. The Possibilities: Anybody we haven't picked yet. Three women: boss bitch Pizzazz, the equally ruthless second-banana Roxy, and the comparatively mild Stormer, who is forever the weak link in the Misfits' chain, always tempted to do the nice thing in defiance of her bandmates. Your major antagonists are a rock band called The Misfits. As for Shana and Aja, they need to shine from the sidelines, so cast Naturi Naughton, whose vocal talents were on display in the Fame remake and who could really belt out a bridge and make a statement, and Liza Lapira ( Super Fun Night Don't Trust the B- in Apartment 23), who instantly becomes your secret comedy weapon. Plus, questions of "can she keep up vocally?" might actually play into Kimber's underdog status. The best redhead at our disposal is Emma Stone, who would do well playing a girl with a bit of ambition and less of the it-girl status that has come to characterize her more recent roles. The Picks: Kimber's a redhead, and hair color matters more than you think it would when it comes to this show. As for Shana and Aja, you could throw all diversity imperatives out the window and look to the likes of Krysta Rodriguez ( Smash), Annaleigh Ashford ( Masters of Sex), or Lindsay Mendez (Broadway's Wicked). Also possible Kimbers: Ashley Tisdale, who should be considered for every musically-inclined film going forward or Demi Lovato, who would bring a lot of baggage to the role, in a good way. As anyone who's seen Camp knows, the girl can play ambitious second-banana quite well. The Possibilities: Kendrick's actually a better choice for Kimber than she is for Jem, so she goes on the list.

It's pretty much the secondary lead role. Obviously, that relationship will be a big deal in the movie's plot. The most important Hologram is Kimber, since her status as jealous/ambitious/impulsive younger sister ended up driving a lot of story. Tokenism is annoying, but it'd be equally annoying to be like, "Nah, cast a couple more white girls," so we'd like to preserve the status quo at least. Also, in the cartoon, Shana was black and Aja was Asian, which smacked of tokenism when you took their lack of story focus into account. The latter two never really had much to do with the storylines, so you'll want to cast them in a way that they will pop from the sidelines, either through vocal talent or personality. There are three other women who make up Jem's backing band: Kimber, who is Jerica's younger sister, as well as Aja and Shana.
