This is Andrew from Encore’s World of Film & TV with another entry of LAMB Casting.
This week we’re going back in time…but like the entries for Doubt and A Streetcar Named Desire, you’ve got a little simple – only four characters to cast. Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? was a massive success in 1966, nominated for every single category at the time (save for Original...

This is Andrew from Encore’s World of Film & TV with another entry in LAMB Casting. Along with The Turning Point (1977), The Color Purple (1985) holds the unenviable prize of having the most Oscar nominations without winning – 11.

When Doubt came out in 2008 the panel was pretty much split down the middle, it seemed. Half seemed to love Meryl’s Aloysius giving it endless best of citations and the other half hated using Cherry Jones apparently atypical incarnation. I’ve never seen the lovely Jones on stage, so I can’t accredit the latter. I wasn’t too fond of Streep in Doubt. She was fine, but I hated her take on the character. In fact as someone...

Andrew here, from Encore’s World of Film & TV. I’m very late with this, but I’ve had a hectic week – which is no excuse but (shrugs) it is what it is. As usual I’m not revealing who the competitors were, but this week the lineup was very interesting. Six of you decided to recast 2008’s Awards hit of sorts and I’d rather watch each of these films than the actual cast…and I liked...

I know you’re probably all queasy at the thought of recasting La Streep herself, but she’s probably busy prepping herself for this year’s ceremony so reading LAMB is probably low on her list of...

Morning, folks. Andrew from Encore’s World of Film & TV, I’m here to give you the results for the first episode of LAMB Casting – my new feature. The task was to cast A Streetcar Named Desire, classic film with Viven Leigh and Marlon Brando directed by the legendary Elia Kazan.
