I thought about Natasha too. Another option is Kristanna Loken (the T-X)

My two ideas for Guard are Natasha Henstridge or Tricia Helfer.

Both are excellent choices.

I like Helfer for Mab.  Henstridge might be a good Charity.

Arent Titania and Mab supposed to look identical?  Not sisters, but Clones.  So it would probably be worth while to find an actress that could pull off both sides of that coin, the Cold and ruthless and the Fiery rage.  Tricia Heffer could do that.  I havent seen Jeri Ryan in enough outside of Voyager.

I'd rather see Theron as Charity Carpenter or someone else rather than either of the Queens.  I saw her in SW&tH, and I wasn't that impressed with her 'evil queen'.

I was, that is why I thought in her. Charity is different in my book.

Wasnt impressed with the movie as a whole, but she did do bat-sh*t crazy pretty damn well.

Remember that mab and Titiana are Identical in appearence. as well as Maeve and Sarissa... so If we have to have actresses that can play both sides of the coin... That being said, Ryan is a go for Mab too

If you read it like I did, Mab and Titania are identical, Maeve looks like a young clone of Mab, Maeve and Aurora are identical, Maeve and Sarissa are identical, and Maeve and Lily (near the end) are almost identical.  I think some of their similarities are due to familial traits (since Mab and Titania are sisters, Maee & Sarissa are sisters, and Maeve & Aurora are cousins).  I don't think they're actually identical; I think they just have similar traits, and then the mantles change them further into that surreal, glamorous beauty.  Lily was always beautiful, but Harry noted in CD I believe that she looked like Aurora.  I don't think she physically morphed into Aurora; I think the essence of her presence changed.

According the CD, Mab and Titania dont look like Sisters, they look like clones.  It is entirely possibel that over th years teh Mantles warp their bearers physically, and there were always descriptions of the others having similarities, but those two have taken it to the point where they'd need to share an actress

Or maybe use the Olson Twins?
