I'm not real good with movies so I'm needing some help for school. I have to cast the roles for the movie "Antigone". Here are the parts...

Antigone: Young girl who tries to "fight the power"
Ismene: Antigones sister, shy at first... but comes around
Eurydice: Wife of the Jerk King
Creon: Jerk king
Haimon: Son of the Jerk King and lover of Antigone
Theiresias: Blind Prophet

Wait, you want a Hollywood casting? Okay, here goes:

Antigone: Keira Knightley. She's pretty good at playing fiesty girls, and has the face of a goddess. Or Scarlett Johansen; she has a stately air about her that might better fit with Antigone's sort of demeanor.

Ismene: Mischa Barton. She's lovely, but can play the shy and odd girl (see her in Lost and Delirious). She'd do the part well.

Eurydice: Why not Demi Moore? Honestly, Eurydice has such a small part anyways, it hardly matters.

Creon: Just for a turn in oddness, I'm going to say Johnny Knoxville as the arrogant king, but playing it much more serious than usual, although still pompous. Made to look older, of course. Or, for some reason, I want to say Christian Slater- he'd be a fantastic Creon.

Haimon: Hmm, some pretty boy . . . what about Toby Maguire done up in full Greek style? I think he could work it.

Tiresias: Steve Buscemi with milky white contacts in his eyes and wild, grey-dyed hair. Totally.

Hope that's what you wanted!

I'm not sure what you're asking. If you want us to tell you who to cast, just pick people that you think fit the character's attributes.
