Antigone Journal #2: Casting Antigone

Antigone- "Justice, that dwells with the gods below, knows no such law."
"Publish it to all the world! Else I shall hate you more."
"Ismene dear, my dear Ismene!"
Kate Winslet-compassionate but focused on doing what's right, serious and driven
Brown hair, thin, pretty

Ismene- "We are women; it is not for us to fight against men"
"O sister, sister, let me share your death"
"How can I still help you?"
Rachel McAdams-normally bubbly but sobered by the serious situation, anxious
very thin, brown hair, very pretty

Haemon- "By your wise decisions my life is ruled"
"It isn't a question of age, but of right and wrong"
"Let those that will be witness of your wickedness..."
Leonardo DiCaprio- serious, a good guy, muscular

  1. Interesting choice for Antigone. I like it, but it's funny that I actually chose Kate Winslet for Ismene because I think she can do a good job playing all kinds of roles including a cautious and despairing person.

  2. I like the idea of Leonardo DiCaprio for Haemon, i think it fits well Your Antigone choice i could see with the personality, but i don't think she physically looks like Antigone.

  3. I agree with your choice to cast Kate Winslett as Antigone, I think she'd do a great job with the role.

  4. Leonardo DiCaprio would make a good Haemon because they are both young and seem outspoken, and believe in what they are doing.
