Cast List

The cast for the upcoming Brave New World movie has officially been announced!

Bernard Marx- Steve Carell
Bernard is described as an awkward man that doesn’t quite fit in with the community. Steve Carell would be perfect for this role because of his past role playing Michael Scott in the Office. Steve’s character in that was  also a social awkward and was often seen as an outsider in social situation.
“He’s so ugly and so small. They say somebody made a mistake when he was still in the bottle-thought he was a Gamma and put alcohol in his blood-surrogate” (Orwell, 47).


The D.H.C.-Michael Bay
Who better to play a director than another director? Michael Bay the director of many movies like Pearl Harbour and Armageddon fits the description of the director perfectly and because of that would be perfect for the role.

“He had a long chin and big, rather prominent teeth, just covered, when he was not taking, by his full floridly curvy lips. Old, young? Thirty? Fifty? Fifty-five? It was hard to say” (Orwell, 16).

Lenina Crowne- Rossie Huntington
Lennina is the blond hair blue eyed female lead for the film and because of Rossie Huntington’s performance in Transformers 3, she is the best choice out there to play Lennina. 
“She’s a spending girl. Wonderfully pneumatic. I'm surprised you haven’t had her" (Orwell, 45).


Mustapha Mond-Robert Downey Jr
Robert Downey Jr. fits the physical description well and will be a great fit for the role.


“a man of middle height, black haired, with a hooked nose, full red lips, eyes very piercing and dark” (Orwell, 37).


Pope- Terry Crews
Pope is described as a big man and is dark skinned. During the scene in which Pope enters John’s house and rips him away from his mother he is portrayed as big and powerful. Terry Crews has played in many roles in which he is a man who commands a lot of physical power and because of this he was selected to play Pope.


“A man was standing by the bed, enormous, frightening” (Orwell, 103).

Helmholtz- Bradley Cooper
Helmholtz is a ladies man who is very successful. Bradley Cooper would be great for this role because he fits the physical description and can meet the personality traits as well.
“He was a powerfully built man, deep-chested, broad shouldered, massive, and yet quick in his movements, springy and agile” (Orwell, 61)

John Then Savage- Taylor Lautner
John’s character is supposed to be a savage meaning his character should seem a bit untamed. Taylor Lautner’s role in the twighlight series as a werewolf will have given him experience in playing a role in which he would need to be in touch with his .
“Such a nice looking boy and a really beautiful body” (Orwell, 99).
