What about Kate Beckinsdale as Scarlet, just with dyed hair? As much as I love Jovovich, no.

I'm guessing the use of Willem Dafoe is because of his villianous stint as the Green Goblin in Spiderman Whatever. I'd go for Gary Oldman myself. I'm not even going to LOOK that list. I'd rather a bunch of semi-unknowns with a few old-skool stars than a bunch of mid-carders. Transformers was perfect in that way, yah?
