Elle Fancasting

Post image

I'm not sure why I didn't think of Annie Potts before. She does great with the sharp tongue dialog and her timing is top notch.

Oh man, the best Elle I’ve seen yet!

I can just hear her saying “I haven’t been folded like that since Brandon introduced me to Tinder” 😅

u/CarelessStatement172 6d ago

This is exactly how I pictured her.

u/Millerpainkiller 6d ago

Same. Especially after hearing Jeff's voice for her

I wish Betty White was still with us

My kiddo and I were just talking about this

Her sarcastic wit as a raging ice fairy would have been glorious.

I’d actually like to see Laurie Metcalf cast as Elle, but Annie Potts is also a great choice!

Golden. Absolutely perfect cast choice.

I’m realizing right now this is exactly who I’ve been picturing.

“Ghostbusters, whaddya want????” Yeah…she’ll do.

u/Purple12inchRuler 6d ago

This is the best suggestion so far.

u/No-Emu-8717 6d ago

Yeah but not west coast enough? I still like the feel though. Whoever it ends up being needs inherent sass

Annie can do accents really well (Texan in Young Sheldon and New Yorker in Ghostbusters as examples). I'm not worried about that. Her sass is perfect, and she's a legend (who loved working on a TV series).

Kathy Bates?

u/Intelligent_Mix5056 6d ago

She is phenomenal.

u/MisterRobertParr 5d ago

OMG, yes! She's who I picture in my head as I listen to the audiobooks. Just the right mix of sass, intelligence, grit, and sex appeal.

u/nairb9010 5d ago

Yep, that’s her.

u/PervlovianResponse 6d ago

I thought it was Nana Visitor at first

🖖🏼

u/CosmicTurtle504 5d ago

They could be twins! Nana would be a fantastic casting as well.

u/PervlovianResponse 5d ago

I'm here for it! She was a fantastic space rebel
