No! What the heck were they thinking?

Blond bombshell Katherine Heigl has been cast to play the Italian-Hungarian-American Stephanie Plum in the movie adaptation of One for the Money. If they’re going to screw up the casting of the main character, how true are they going to stay to the rest of the film? What’s next? An Asian Ranger or a white Lula? Argh!

I am so glad I’m not the only one freaking out about this! I was so shocked and disappointed when I heard this. She is no way Stephanie Plum.

That is definitely an odd choice!

That is about as bad as casting Reese Witherspoon in that role, which was the last rumor I heard. I was totally up in arms. Obviously casting has not read the novels and does not grasp the essence of Stephanie. I’m irritated!

[...] so you already know what I think of Katherine Heigl portraying Stephanie Plum from Janet Evanovich’s series. I have to admit [...]
I actually think Katherine Heigl will do fine for the role. Call me crazy, but I have had Sophia Bush in my head as Stephanie for the longest time. She does loud and feisty well, looks right, and always seems really committed to playing her roles.
I have no clue what the casting directors were thinking when they chose that Irish guy to play Morelli. Someone who actually looks Italian, please!

So, I don’t think that they made the right choice for Stephanie Plum, but my theory when It comes to Katherine is she eith fails misrebly or knocks it out of the park. This is an extremely different role for her and I think she will play the accident prone part well if she can nail the actual character. Let’s give her a chance. As for Morrelli, that boy better get a tan and and attitude.
