i can't believe it is already time for a third stab (no pun intended) at romeo and juliet. my heart belonged to olivia hussey and leonard whiting until 97, and then i made room for my beloved claire danes and leonardo dicaprio. now carlo carlei has casted true gritness hailee steinfeld as juliet. while i truly believe that olivia hussey is one of the dreamiest gals to have ever graced the silver screen, i also believe hailee has some serious O.H potential. same baby face and moon goddess 70s center-parted hair and serious eyebrows. i dig it.
i am, however, hard-pressed to believe there is a romeo out there with the same hubba hubba quality as leonard whiting and leonardo dicaprio. seriously, who could hold a torch???

wow, do they ever look alike! I'm so excited about this! and I have no idea who could play romeo, there aren't many men in hollywood that excite me at the moment.
perhaps Zac Efron could play handsome Romeo
i will always love leonardo dicaprio as romeo the most... and i mean honestly, who could compete with the gorgeous sets, directing, costumes of the 90s version? that thing was a home run, i watched it every single day for months!
wow what great casting! i have to agree, that olivia was just lovely and a perfect juliet..i was obsessed with the movie when it came out, i was a total shakespeare groupie, i was a total freak as a child....imagine that. great post GB! xo
AW! She will be perfect! I love Hailee...and yes, that fabulous hair, eyebrows, eyes, face! Just lovely.
And yes, I wonder who could ever top DiCaprio's lovely face?!
xoxo
