AUSTIN CASTS #10- THE SECRET OF SHADOW RANCH

MOVIE CAST:

-Chace Crawford as Dave Gregory

-Sam Elliot as Tex Britten

-Matt Lucas as Shorty Thurmond

-Tanaya Beatty as Mary Yazzie

-Jensen Ackles and Ana de Armas as Dirk Valentine and Frances Humber

-Kennedy McMann as Nancy Drew

What do I change/add?

Everything that you learn about Frances and Dirk is acted out and shown in western style flashbacks. Sam Elliot is double cast as Meryl.

The Rawley’s aren’t at the hospital, they were succeeded in being scared off the ranch.

Tex is still a NOPE machine, but he's a but more sympathetic, especially when Mary Yazzie is around.

Nancy dates Dave for a short amount of time.

Shorty is a bit less friendly and a more bit creepy

The phantom horse ALSO runs a hole into the wall of the ranch, and lets out the chickens.

Mary is a lot more native cultured.

Culprit is the same, we gotta have heeeeere’s shorty.

MOVIE CAST

-Viola Davis as Rose Green

-Chris Parnell as Louis Chandler

-Jessica Chastain as Abby Sideris

-Ansel Elgort as Charlie Murphy

-Kennedy McMann as Nancy Drew

What would I change/add?

Abby is the one who hires Nancy and is the one who knows Hannah.

The ghosts are BOTH Lizzie Applegate as well as Diego

The ghosts are REAL. They are not faked.

Nancy x Charlie action.

The seance scene is much more terrifying and Jessica Chastain gives it her all.

Other accidents include: A faulty stair step, fallen ceiling tiles, and broken floorboards.

I would make the culprit Rose, just because Viola Davis would give it her all and win an Oscar.

MUSICAL CAST:

-Cynthia Erivo as Rose Green

-Taissa Farmiga as Jessalyn Thornton

-Aaron Tveit as Colton Birchfield

-Helena Bonham Carter as Harper Thornton (only correct answer?)

-Jenna Louise Coleman as Charlotte Thornton

What do I change/add?

The Ghost is REAL. Gr. No fumes garbage.

Colton and Jessalyn still get married. There’s no Lexie

Wade is literally a knockoff TWD Neegan

Nancy sees Charlotte on the Widow’s Walk when she first arrives 

Colton’s mental health is explored more. 

Harper actually hides in the ruins where Charlotte died.

The film reel shows the fire (not the starter), but it shows the fire.

You will cry at least 5 times

Same “culprit”. She’s never been a culprit in my eyes, just guilty.

-Stephanie J. Block as Clara Thornton 

AUSTIN CASTS #5- THE FINAL SCENE

MOVIE CAST:

-Nick Robinson as Brady Armstrong

-Angela Bassett as Simone Mueller

-Brenda Song as Maya Nguyen

-Josh Dallas as Nick Falcone

-George Clooney as Joseph Hughes

-Kennedy McMann as Nancy Drew

What do I change/add?

Nancy and Maya are together A WHILE before she gets kidnapped. Maya meets all the characters and gets the tour of the whole palladium.

Nancy does not go check out the snacks , instead the culprit abducts Maya right in front of Nancy in a black coat and headwear. 

Simone is 10 times WORSE. Like, the woman flat out pens a screenplay, casts it, and hires a production staff of a movie about Maya’s disappearence 

Harry Houdini is still prominent, but Nick is a relative just as Brady is to JJ Thompson

Nancy almost catches Maya when she is found in one of the cages on stage, but the culprit lowers the cages and Maya vanishes again.

Our boy Joseph is the baddie, but he does it because he is worried Maya is going to expose too much and learn about his past.

MUSICAL CAST:

-Natalie Portman as Mattie Jensen

-Courteney Cox as Lillian Weiss

-Alec Baldwin as Dwayne Powers

-Georgia Engel as Millie Strathorn (rest in piece you beautiful woman)

-Patrick Warburton as Ralph Guardino

-Kennedy McMann as Nancy Drew

What do I change/add?

Millie is MUCH more prominent. Nancy goes to the prop room a lot more and Millie does a couple of more things to make her shady.

We are in NYC, but this time we are at an actual studio, (30 Rock).

Mattie is not the one who hires Nancy, it's Dwayne. Nancy also does not live with Mattie. 

Dwayne makes Nancy an NBC page and that is her cover.

It’s much more dark. Rick still gets all the usual things (chocolates, dead flowers, teleprompter threat) BUT he also receives dead fish, doll heads, and falls through the trapdoor on the stage.

Of course the culprit is the same, how can it not be?

What do I change/add?

The monster is much more scarier and not Frankenstein’s monster.

Lukas’ pranks are a lot more dangerous 

Nancy witnesses the monster kidnap Lukas

Karl’s raid game is a flop :(

Anja’s jealously comes out sometimes. She has random bursts of anger.

Renate is the kind of role that wins this movie oscars because of Dame Helen Mirren

Anja yodels

Same culprit except Markus appears at the end and as it turns out, is gay.

No fox and geese

Rolfe and Bill Kessler are related

Yanni is from Sweden

Bill and Lou are comedic gold
