While casting (or miscasting) this "movie" is a lot of fun, to quote the Bard, "I run before my horse to market."
What we need is a really good script, and that will be even more difficult to obtain than a cast that not only looks the part but can also act.
Now, the new Ralph Fiennes film of Coriolanus was written by the writer of Gladiator and The Last Samurai, but that is, I think, a dubious pedigree. While box office hits in the best Hollywood tradition, their treatment of history was also in the "best" Hollywood tradition. That should give us pause when considering any new Boudicca film.
