I’m growing impatient for The Witch of Blackbird Pond to be made into a movie. After waiting close to a decade for a movie to happen, I’m resigned. Maybe it will never happen. Maybe Puritans are just not appealing to Hollywood. Maybe movies about witch trials and colonial domestic life doesn’t equal box-office success. Whatever the reason, I’m sick of waiting. I’m casting my own damn movie!
The following are my very rough casting ideas. I can only think of actors for a few characters and I’ve yet to consider actors/actresses for Mercy Wood, Hannah Tupper, John Holbrook, William Ashbey, Aunt Rachel, etc…
So Witch of Blackbird Pond readers, this is your chance to comment and let me know what you think. If you’ve been harboring the ideal Kit Tyler or the ideal Nat Eaton inside, please give me your two cents. When I’ve gathered enough reader input, I’ll composite a collection of actor/actress images for voting.
Actress: Felicity Jones
Character description: There isn’t much physical description of Kit Tyler. Speare hints that she is thin with dark brown hair. Kit’s beauty is ambiguous: some characters think she is attractive, but other characters say she’s isn’t exactly pretty. So I’ve come to the conclusion that she’s pretty but not beautiful, but I imagine her as beautiful anyways.
Commentary: After watching Northanger Abbey (2007), I found Felicity Jones ridiculously beautiful—breathtaking even. However, she’s got the fresh-faced, trustworthy quality of a young heroine. I felt very comfortable looking at the world through her eyes.
Actor: Gaspard Ulliel
Character description: “She had noticed him often, his thin wiry figure swinging easily hand over hand up the rigging, his sandy, sun-bleached head bent over a coil of rope” (1).

Commentary: Gaspard Ulliel got passed up for the role of Edward Cullen in the Twilight movie. Does that mean he’s up for grabs in the WOBP movie? Okay, so he doesn’t have sandy blonde hair, but that can be easily remedied. Gaspard has the prerequisite “thin wiry figure” and I can see him swinging on the rigging. In the book, there is never any mention of Nat Eaton’s age, only references to his youth: “that cocky young seaman!” If Kit Tyler is 16, I assume Nat Eaton is 19 at the most. Remember, they don’t live that long back then.
Actor: Liam Neeson
Character description: “From his place at the head, a man unfolded his tall angular body and came toward her. She could not read the faintest sign of welcome on his thin stern lips or the dark eyes that glowered fiercely at her from under the heavy grizzled eyebrows” (32).

Commentary: Liam Neeson is the only actor I can think of who fits that physical description. Like Uncle Matthew, he can be fierce, commanding, and noble at the same time.
Actress: Alexis Bledel
Character description: “Judith’s face fulfilled every exquisite detail the picture she hand treasured of her imagined aunt. The clear white skin, the blue eyes under a dark fringe of lashes, the black hair that curled against her shoulders, and the haughty lift of her perfect small chin—this girl could have been the toast of a regiment!” (32).

Commentary: Isn’t Alexis Bledel known for her piercing blue eyes? And yes, she does look like the toast of a regiment.


I know this was a favorite book of mine growing up but I cannot remember at all what it was about! For what it’s worth good casting choices. I like the guy that passed up on the Edward Cullen role – too bad. He seems like he would have fit perfectly.
By: iliana on January 24, 2008

I love Gaspard Ulliel! It was for him alone that I went and saw Hannibal Rising in theatres. And I agree with Iliana-I totally seem him as angsty Edward.
It’s interesting how differently you and I feel about books being made into movies. The more I like a book, the more I will avoid any movie version of it like the plague! I’d rather have my own image in my head from reading than Hollywood’s version.
By: Eva on January 24, 2008
at 10:00 pm
Iliana:
Can I interest you in a re-read?
Yes, Gaspard Ulliel would have made a perfect Edward Cullen (he’s the top pick on YouTube), but it shall never be… I’m pretty happy with Robert Pattinson though.
Eva:
For every book I read, I have this need to visualize it. Even if I knew that they were going to butcher the book as a movie, I’ll still go see it.
I just want to see live characters and the scene played out.
By: T Y on January 24, 2008
at 11:07 pm
I’m stumped. But I like your interesting cast, especially Gaspard. I really can’t think of anyone for any character, except a younger Leo DiCaprio for Nat, which sadly enough, is not possible.
By: m. majeed on January 25, 2008
at 1:03 pm
On second thought, even if they made a cartoon movie for WOBP like Anastasia, that would be awesome. I’d like to see another Dimitri-type hottie.
By: m. majeed on January 25, 2008
at 1:12 pm
m.majeed—
Yeah, casting WOBP is hard. I had to really rack my brain to come up with the actors/actresses. If it wasn’t for watching Northanger Abbey last weekend, I wouldn’t even know who to cast for Kit.
Now that you mention it, the Anastasia and Dimitri relationship reminds me of the Kit & Nat relationship: the unspoken attraction, the subtle chemistry, the bickering. Dimitri’s sarcastic personality reminds me of Nat as well. Maybe that’s why I liked Anastasia so much, it reminds me of WOBP.

That Gaspard guy is hot, hot, hot! I’m going to have to do a little Gaspard research now…
How about Ellen Page for the role of Kit? I know she’s kind of Emo, but that girl can act!
Thank you for this. Now I’ll have to reread.
By: char on January 31, 2008

Char–
Thank you! Gaspard is HOT! I’m not too sure about Ellen Page; she’s a great actress, but I’m having a hard time picturing her in period movies—has she ever done any historical pics?
By: T Y on January 31, 2008
at 7:38 pm
No, I don’t think she has. Maybe she is a bit too alternative. Perhaps Rupert Grint could play Kit!
Have a good weekend.

Love this book. Have read it to all our kids. Just finishing it with the Third Grader. So wanted to find a movie to cap it off with, but sadly that hasn’t happened yet. I like your choices for characters. I think we should start a petition drive with a couple Hollywood types. Maybe sending notes to the choices would get them thinking…or at least reading the book! Carry on.
By: Connie on February 5, 2008

Connie—
Count me in for the petition idea. WOBP has such great movie potential, it would be a waste not to make it into a movie. I see epic, I see drama, I see Oscar.
By: T Y on February 5, 2008

I was hoping to find a movie for this book because it is my favorate book. So I hope you can get a movie in the making. I am going to be a teacher so I was hoping I could find a movie to show my students after we read the book in class.

Im 12 yr old. not long ago i finished *the witch of blackbird pond* It was awesome so i started looking if their was a movie, but as you know there is no movie. *tear* I think it’s unfair that the movie hasn’t come out yet. People should know about this book but most people don’t like reading so I demand: there should be a movie!

i love this book so far
i wish this movie will come out
If it does hopefully it is before June 22
So the 5th graders in my school can watch it
So good luck
Hopefully this movie comes out

I teach 5th grade and we finished the book today! My students clapped at the end. I love that!
They keep asking me if there is a movie. I’d never found one, but of course I went online to look again just hoping…
We would all be thrilled if you really did make this movie! I’ll ask my students tomorrow who they think the characters should be played by and let you know what they think.
Thank you!

My class is reading this book, and we have to read at least 1 chapter each day, but I read at least 2 1/2 chapters everytime. I absolutely love the book and I would love to watch the movie. I thought it would be really cool to play in the movie, maybe as Mercy or Kit, (those are my favorite characters). So if you would need someone, I’m interested in playing a part. I’m about to turn 14, I have blonde hair, Im 5′4-5′6, dont know exactly, I love acting, Im very entergetic, fun, and I get along with people very well. If you are interested, email me, I could give a number to contact me, and send some pictures for you to see me.

We created a website just for this “fantasy cast” activity (storycasting.com), and we’d LOVE to get more “lit” people on there! We think that casting is a way to inject “movie fun” in to literature, and enable a classroom discussion you wouldn’t otherwise, especially with young people. WE only have 60K titles so far, but go take a look and suggest some more LIT titles, and we’ll plug them in for you to “cast”.

you chose the wrong person to play edward cullen
By: beatrice on June 5, 2008

you MUST get help to find someone else to play as edward cullen because the guy you chose is discustingly ugly and disturbing to look at!
By: beatrice on June 5, 2008
at 12:59 pm
beatrice:
The guy I chose is for Nat Eaton from Witch of Blackbird Pond, see title of post. I didn’t pick anyone to play Edward Cullen, the professionals did that. Are we still talking about Gaspard Ulliel here? Personally, I still stand by the fact that he’s hot. Don’t hate.
By: T Y on June 5, 2008
at 1:44 pm
ohh i love william moseley! he would be perfect for nat. he is blonde headed and skinny and plain gorgeous!
i think that kit should be played by an unknown girl. for a breakout role. and an air of mystery of who she is to the audience!
that would be cool.
By: mari on June 7, 2008
at 8:06 pm
I LOVE this book it is such a good one. does anyone no the authors address or email? i want her to write a second book. I wish that the book would of ended up like this: nat and kit marry, and adopt prudence because her parents are arrested. but it didnt end up that way, if they made a movie for it and it came out in theatre then im sure that are whole class would go and see it
By: MEGAN MORTENSEN on June 16, 2008
at 11:03 am
Oh, I love this!
How about–
Abigail Breslin as Prudence
Gerard Butler as Matthew
Zooey Deschanel as Judith
Alexis as Mercy (she seems a little meeker… Zooey has a little more of Judith’s zing)
James McAvoy or Hugh Dancy as John Holbrook.. they are both handsome but can be very gawky when needed
Julie Walters as Hannah
I have 3 options for Nat… they would all have to dye their hair.
Mark Wells – he is a cutie!! First choice.
Jared Padalecki – he might work as William
Dave Annable – he would be excellent for those quirky looks Nat gives Kit
That’s all I’ve got. I’m not sure about your pick for Kit but i like it more than i dislike it. She’s interesting and she’s a good actress, she just looks so YOUNG.
The animation idea is fantastic too. Another Dimitri in Nat form would be JUST my cup of tea!
Thanks for making this… I’ve looked all over for pictures, etc. too, to no avail. I LOVE THIS BOOK!
By: perinne on July 21, 2008
at 8:17 pm
I think Anne Hathaway should play Kit, Nat’s actor is fine. Uncle Matthew’s actor is fine. I think Alexis should play Mercy, and the girl who played Hatie ( I am guessing that is how you spell it) should play Judith.
By: Fallon on August 19, 2008
at 5:45 pm
I almost forgot John should be played by Ben Barnes.
By: Fallon on August 19, 2008

Hatie is from Ella Enchanted Starring Anne Hathaway.

Have you ever checked out storycasting.com? It’s a place just for making and discussing a movie cast for any book. I totally agree that Ulliel would have been great as Edward in Twilight, but I’ll settle for “Digory.”
By: Lindsey on August 21, 2008

So i’ve read this book way too many times to count and every time i do i think how much i would love to see it as a movie. i’m so glad so many others feel the same. I just was searching to see if there was any sign of a movie and i found a blurb about a witch of blackbird pond movie announced. looks like we will get our wish.
By: lizzie on September 3, 2008

This is so cool to find another Nat Eaton obsessor. I must tell you that when I was 10 or 11, I had the same FEVERISH crush on Mr. Eaton. He was the man of my dreams, and I think I read WOBP hundreds of times. Once in a while, I still read it (at age 30-something). It endures as one of my favorites ever. I didn’t know there were plans to make a movie out of the book. To that I say: “It’s about time!!!” It would make a great film. I like your ideas for casting, but I don’t think I agree with Alexis Bledel as Judith. Alexis is stunning to look at, but I don’t think she has enough spark to pull of haughty Judith’s character. Liam Neeson would be a perfect Matthew, though. You nailed that one. I’ll have to give some more thought to casting and get back to you with some ideas. Love your site!!

They are making the movie. I just found it on the NY Times: movies.nytimes.com/movie/439637/The-Witch-of-Blackbird-Pond/overview -
I am so excited! This has been my favorite book since I was 11 (I’m 27 now)!
I think it will make a fascinating movie I just hope it is not made to be too childish and all of the drama and excitement holds up on screen.
For Judith I completely agree with Alexis Biedel and in sticking with a co-star of hers from the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants I think Amber Tamblyn would make a wonderful Kit.

I too have been waiting and waiting and hoping and hoping for The Witch of Blackbird Pond to be made into a movie! And I must say, your cast is PERFECT. I love all the actors and actresses, and couldn’t have chosen better myself =].
By: CareBear on November 21, 2008

I must admit, I’ve read The Witch of Blackbird Pond so many times since I was little, the only thing I feel I’m missing is to have a movie to go with it! I’ve pictured and drawn every character to my imagination and the actors/actresses you think would be best for the movie are phenomenal! If only we could convince Hollywood that this movie could be as amazing as the book itself!! (=

I love WOBP! It’s such an awesome book, the more I read it, the more I love it! Sadly it’s not too well known. I’ve heard it’s announced that it’ll be made into a movie! I’m soo excited! No casting ideas-i’m not very good w/ that, but I like your ideas so far! And the other ideas posted-those fit well too! except i think anne hatheway is a bit too well known for the role of Kit.

I am very pleased to have stumbled upon this site, and your articles. You have managed to take my favourite book from childhood (WOBP) and my favourite series from young-adulthood (the Outlander series) and accurately cast them almost perfectly to how I have always pictured them
thanks for making my Saturday and now all I have to do is wait for someone to take your suggestions and make a movie! Thanks again!
By: erin on January 24, 2009
at 5:14 pm
WOBP has been on my list of favourite books ever since I first read it as a preteen back in 1982. I’ve re-read it over the years and have often wondered why no movie had yet been made. The novel has everything – romance, historical drama, courtroom suspense (albeit of the Puritan variety) Plus, the characters are so richly drawn it should be a casting director’s dream. I had my own dream cast years ago but they are now too old of course. I love the suggestions here. Any ideas for William, John, Hannah and Rachel?
By: Michelle on January 30, 2009
at 11:47 am
Fruther to above, I forgot to add Prudence – I can’t think of any child actress who would do her justice – I think they’d have to cast an unknown.
By: Michelle on January 30, 2009
at 11:51 am
I was checking out some of the otehr casting choices.
Perinne – interesting choices – I love Gerard Butler but think he’s too mature to play the 19 year old William Ashby. Ditto for some of the others mentioned (Anne Hathaway, Zooey Deschanel.) These characters are teenagers (Kit and Judith are 16).
By: Michelle on January 30, 2009
at 1:55 pm
I was the one who thought of Anne Hathaway for Kit. And thank you for FINALLY giving me some feedback. But does ANYONE WHO HAS SEEN HER IN ELLA ENCHANTED KNOW THE NAME OF HER CO-STAR THAT PLAYED HATIE. Also why would picking an actress that is well known, like Anne, to play Kit be bad?! She is excellent when it comes to comedy and she is Kit in my mind.
By: Fallon on January 31, 2009
at 3:26 pm
Hi Fallon,
Hatie in “ella Enchanted” was played by Lucy Punch. (I haven’t heard of her – I just googled it.) And I agree with you there is nothing wrong with a well-known actress as Kit. Hollywood being the way it is they will go with well known people for box office reasons. She should be well known but not a huge star.
By: Michelle on February 2, 2009

I have read through your thread. I have loved this books since I first read it in 7th grade in 1984! I am 37 years old and I still have a copy of it that I still love to read!!! I’ve changed a couple of the scenes, like I really think Nat and Kit need to share some sort of embrace or kiss towards the end of the book… but, I totally agree, this needs to be made into a movie. I read an except of a “play” adapted from the book by an auther Y. Young (?) What I read of it, I really didn’t like, I didn’t think is followed the book very well, and to be honest it was kinda hooky sounding. If someone were to write a screenplay it would have to be fabulous and very exciting, almost exact to the book. It can be done…I’ve seen it.. As of casting, I think many of you have good ideas. Well, let’s hope for the best folks…maybe one of us should write the screneplay?

You did a greay job casting-except for Nat. I’m sure Gaspard Ulliel is a great actor and all that, but he couldn’t be Nat Eaton. Over and over throught he whole book every time it mentions Nat
it mentions his blue eyes. (I read it again to see) I’m sure you can dye his hair but, even contacts can’t fix the eyes. Well there’s my two cents,
I hope you make it soon!
