Sterling Archer: Sterling Malory Archer, better known simply as Archer, is the world's deadliest spy.

Chris Pine [Height: 6' 0", Age: 32, Notable Works: This Means War, Star Trek, Jack Ryan {Forthcoming}]: Was instantly my pick for the role, he's got the look's the charm, and the ability to play the cocky-@$$hole archer is. If there is a perfect choice, outside H. Jon Benjamin's vocal work, it's Pine.


Malory Archer: Malory Archer is the Chief Executive Officer of ISIS. Malory governs her employees with harsh criticism, raw commentary and belligerent vilification and almost always with a drink in one hand. Malory is Sterling's mother.

Glenn Close [Height: 5' 5", Age: 66, Notable Works: Fatal Attractions, 101 Dalmations, Guardians of the Galaxy {Forthcoming}]: She's a wonderful actress, a legend, She's a 6 time Academy Award Nominated actress, her work has been pretty famous, the reason she fits Malory is because it's the kind of role she needs to break the type of classical mold she's in. Sure she's done comedy but nothing this adult or humorous.


Woodhouse: Woodhouse is Sterling's elderly and devoted valet, he takes harsh and frequent criticism from his employer.

Michael Caine [Height: 6' 2", Age: 80, Notable Works: Get Carter, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Interstellar {Forthcoming}]: He is a wonderful actor. My only choice for Woodhouse. He's adept to the humor of the character, and it's a nice way of him spoofing himself in the Batman Films. Not to mention he was balls-to-the-walls hilarious in Goldmember.


Lana Kane: Lana Kane is a star agent at ISIS as well as Sterling's former girlfriend.

Zoe Saldana [Height: 5' 7", Age: 37, Notable Works: The Losers, Colombiana, Guardians Of The Galaxy {Forthcoming}]: Zoe is a beautiful and wondrous actress. She's got a sense of attitude and the looks to play a perfect live action Lana.


Cyril Figgis: the ISIS comptroller and recently promoted field agent, Cyril is a rigid, unerring company man and Sterling's easiest and usual target for ridicule and humiliation, usually without Cyril's knowledge.

Patrick Wilson [Height: 6' 1", Age: 40, Notable Works: Watchmen, Insidious, Insidious: Chapter 2 {Forthcoming}]: He was honestly the perfect choice for the role. He has a resemblance to teh character but after his take on Dreidberg in Watchmen I was utterly convinced he was the perfect choice due to his style of playing a weak willed man.


Ray Gillette: Ray Gillette is an openly gay ISIS analyst and field agent.

Neil Patrick Harris [Height: 6' 0", Age: 40, Notable Works: Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle, How I Met Your Mother {T.V. Series}, A Million Ways to Die in The West {Forthcoming}]: I thought of him for the role, not because of his natural sexuality {being Openly Gay, Much Like Ray} But that did play a factor in considering him. Truth is he's a wonderful comedian that's walked the fine line of character like and dislike Ray and it could be liberating for him to play a role like Ray and really give it his all.


Doctor Algernop Krieger: Doctor 'Algernop' Krieger[1] is the head of the ISIS Applied Research Department. He goes by the title of Doctor and performs many activities that require a medical degree; however, he is neither a medical doctor nor "the other kind" ("technically").

Michael Rosenbaum [Height: 6' 0", Age: 41, Notable Works: Hit and Run, Soroity Boys, Back In The Day {Forthcoming}]: Krieger was the hardest to cast, I originally went with Hugh Laurie, but decided against it because of his Age. I needed a person who's done awkward comedy and I remembered his performance in Sorority Boys and thought he would be perfect. He might not have the deepest voice, like the character, but he has the talent, even the look, and the style for Krieger.


Cheryl/Carol Tunt: Cheryl Tunt is Malory's prattling secretary at ISIS. She used to be infatuated with Sterling.

Amy Adams [Height: 5' 4", Age: 38, Notable Works: Enchanted, Man of Steel, Her {Forthcoming}]: I loved her performance in Man of Steel, and in Catch Me If You Can. What attracted me to casting her as Cheryle, was her performances playing a ditsy woman, she always played the cleaner version of that role, and well I was interested in the ides of casting her in what is most definitely the dirty version of that role.


Pam Poovy: the Human Resources (H.R.) Director at ISIS. She frequently comes across personal information about the other employees that she exposes on her blog.

Melissa McCarthy [Height: 5' 2", Age: 42, Notable Works: Bridesmaids, The Heat, Tammy {Forthcoming}]: I'm not really a fan of Melissa, but in all honesty she's a perfect choice for Pam, she's got the girth, the attitude, and the talent to play the role of Pam perfectly.


Brett Buckley: Brett Buckley is an ISIS employee who has been shot numerous times while employed there.

Seth Green [Height: 5' 4", Age: 39, Notable Works: The Story of Luke, Sexy Evil Genius, The Identical {Forthcoming}]: Seth is a fun actor to have in any cast, he's fun to watch and is a decent actor.


Bilbo: Bilbo worked with the computers and satellites at ISIS, as well as other technical support. He was a Hobbit enthusiast and had an exact double working at ISIS

Kevin Smith [Height: 5' 9", Age: 43, Notable Works (As An Actor): Live Free or Die Hard, 4.3.2.1, Southland Tales]: On one hand this is a spoof of how he really feels about the Lord of the Rings Franchise, on the other hand though, he's a fine comedic actor and is really well groomed for this part.


Rodney: Rodney is the new requisitions officer, and as such, is in charge of keeping track of all the weapons in ISIS's armory. He is very by-the-book, and insists that weapon requisitions be done in writing, preferably in triplicate, to the ire of the employees of ISIS.

Jason Lee [Height: 6' 2", Age: 43, Notable Works: Mallrats, Cop Out, Alvin and the Chipmunks]: Jason is an awesome actor, has one of the most styled mustach's since Magnum P.I.'s Tom Selleck. He's a fun actor to watch and has a great sense of presence to play dicks, so he was a number 1 choice for Rodney.


Rip Riley: Rip Riley is a former ISIS agent who currently works as a freelance manhunter.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan [Height: 6' 2", Age: 47, Notable Works: Watchmen, The Losers, The Possession]: I loved his take on the comedian, he did the role true justice. I cast him as Rip because he's close to 50, but still physically active. He could most certainly capture the essence of the character.


Noah: Noah is a slave pirate who met Archer and Rip Riley after Archer killed the Pirate King. He was one of two people aboard the Pirate Ship that spoke English.

David Faustino [Height: 5' 3", Age: 39, Notable Works: Mr. Boogedy, Kller Bud, RoboDoc]: I've been a fan of his since his work on Married With Children, He actually held some talent that made him bring his own to the role of Bud. Developing him from a overactive stereotypical 5th grader, to a horny loaner that became Bud Bundy. I'd like to see him do something more recent, and something different that harkens back to his comedic roots.


Ron Cadillac: Ron Cadillac is Malory Archer's new husband. He owns six Cadillac dealerships and has a strained relationship with his new stepson Sterling.

George Clooney [Height: 6' 0", Age: 51, Notable Works: Batman & Robin, The Ides of March, The American]: George is a certified Ladies man, in all honesty, he's perfect for the role. He's a wonderful actor who's got a great comedic personality. He was beautiful in Burn After Reading, one of the most hilarious movies he's ever done.


Trinette McGoon: Trinette McGoon is a former prostitute who Sterling Archer often employed. She is also the mother of Seamus which she conceived with either Archer or Cyril Figgis as his parentage is disputed.

Heather Graham [Height: 5' 8", Age: 43, Notable Works: Killing Me Softly, Boogie Nights, The Hangover]: Her voice isn't nearly annoying enough, but she's a great actress who would rock this role pretty well, she's played this type of character {callgirl} but this would allow her to have more of an attitude.


Conway Stern: Conway Stern (real name unknown) is a double agent who used a false identity to embed himself at ISIS. Malory Archer hired him to increase diversity at ISIS after he presented himself as being both black and Jewish.

Common [Height: 6' 0", Age: 41, Notable Works: Terminator Salvation, Wanted, Smokin Aces]: He's the kind of actor I could see enjoying and building from this role. He's fun to watch and would definitely be able to get the character's attitude.


Len Trexler: Leonard "Len" Trexler is the head of ODIN. Len lives and works in Paris at ODIN Headquarters.

John Malkovich [Height: 6' 0", Age: 59, Notable Works: Burn After Reading, Red, Transformers Dark of the Moon]: He's a wonderful actor who's been doing more comedies lately and has the right voice and style to play Len Trexler, if anyone could be as perfect for the role as Jeffery Tambor, I'd say it's John Malkovich.


Barry Dylan:Barry Dylan or Other Barry is a former ODIN agent. After being badly injured from a second drop from a rooftop, the KGB turned him into a cyborg.

Sam Rockwell [Height: 5' 9", Age: 44, Notable Works: The Green Mile, Iron Man 2, Seven Psychopaths]: I originally had Bradley Cooper in this role, but I didn't feel he was perfect, I mean he'd be considered too handsome to find annoying, Sam he's just perfect a wonderful actor, who's got style, the voice, and the talent to be Barry.


Katya Kazanova: Katya Kazanova is a former KGB agent, ISIS defector, and current head of the KGB, who saved Sterling Archer's life.

Mila Kunis [Height: 5' 3", Age: 29, Notable Works: Ted, Oz The Great and Powerful, Black Swan]: She is a natural born Russian who can speak the language fluently, she is an honestly beautiful and seductive actress, she was perfect for this role.


Nikolai Jakov: Nikolai Jakov, Head of the KGB, was the head of the Russian KGB, and possibly the biological father of ISIS agent Sterling Archer.

Brain Cox [Height: 5' 9", Age: 67, Notable Works: Red, X2, Manhunter]: After his role in Red, he was going to be the only one I'd cast for the role.


Boris: Boris, aka Jakov's Assistant, is the KGB soldier that often assists Nikolai Jakov with a variety of tasks. He is desperate for Nikolai's attention. He sabotaged the paternity test to see if Archer was his biological son due to his jealousy

Oleg Taktarov [Height: 6' 1", Age: 45, Notable Works: 15 Minutes, National Treasure, Predators]: He is a fun actor, not particularly riveting, but still decent. He'd fit for this role pretty well.


Mannfred: Mannfred is a middle-aged freelance German spy who works with his 19-year-old girlfriend, Uta.

Christoph Waltz [Height: 5' 9", Age: 56, Notable Works: Inglorious Basterds, The Green Hornet, Django Unchained]: Christoph is a 2 time Academy Award Winning actor who doesn't stick to oscar flicks, he does a bit of everything. He is hilarious as a comedian, he is threatening as a villain, I think this would be a fun role for him to do that is certainly the most different from what he's done.


Uta: Uta is a freelance German spy who is fixated on having a child, going so far as to wear a prosthetic pregnancy bodysuit; while wearing it, she's actually convinced that she is pregnant, and later takes to carrying a baby doll as if it is a real

Olivia Thirlby [Height: 5' 4", Age: 26, Notable Works: Juno, The Darkest Hour, Dredd]: She was fun in Dredd, I'd like to see her in a comedy action movie doing something.


Composer: A film score (also sometimes called background music or incidental music) is original music written specifically to accompany a film. The score forms part of the film's soundtrack, which also usually includes dialogue and sound effects, and comprises a number of orchestral, instrumental or choral pieces called cues which are timed to begin and end at specific points during the film in order to enhance the dramatic narrative and the emotional impact of the scene in question. Scores are written by one or more composers, under the guidance of the film's director and/or producer, and are then usually performed by an ensemble of musicians – most often comprising an orchestra or band, instrumental soloists, and choir or vocalists – and recorded by a sound engineer.

Trevor Rabin [Notable Works: National Treasure, Hot Fuzz, Get Smart]: His Music with Hot Fuzz got gravity, action, emotion, and fun. It's a wonderful composure I think Trevor does well adapting music to the situation in the scene.


Director: Directors are responsible for overseeing creative aspects of a film under the overall control of the film producer. They often develop the vision for a film and carry out the vision, deciding how the film should look, in other words they make their vision come to life. They are responsible for turning the script into a sequence of shots. They also direct what tone it should have and what an audience should gain from the cinematic experience. Film directors are responsible for deciding camera angles, lens effects and lighting with the help of the cinematographer and set design with the production designer. They will often take part in hiring the cast and key crew members. They coordinate the actors' moves, or blocking and also may be involved in the writing, financing and editing of a film.

Peter Segal [Notable Works: Tommy Boy, Get Smart, The Longest Yard]: He hasn't done many {if any} R-Rated movies. But his work on Classics like Tommy Boy, and the recent work he's done with Get Smart show that he can get the humor of the script he works with and do a spy comedy that's reasonably good. I think he's a good choice for the role of the director.


Screenplay: Screenwriters are responsible for researching the story, developing the narrative, writing the screenplay, and delivering it, in the required format, to Development Executives. Screenwriters therefore have great influence over the creative direction and emotional impact of the screenplay and, arguably, of the finished film. They either pitch original ideas to Producers in the hope that they will be optioned or sold, or screenwriters are commissioned by a producer to create a screenplay from a concept, true story, existing screen work or literary work, such as a novel, poem, play, comic book or short story.

Michael Bacall [Notable Works: Scott Pilgrim vs The World, 21 Jump Street]: I loved Scott Pilgrim, he made a beautiful comedy with his contribution to 21 Jump Street with humor and styled attention to character, he's most certainly the dude i feel could be trusted to adapt Archer to a silver screen.

i like it, but you dropped the ball on Lana. Lana is supposed to be sexy and have curves. Rosario Dawson is a much better choice.

I have never really watched the show, I felt the need to comment.
The actors you have chosen are all really fantastic, talented actors. Each one has proven they can handle comedy and action, and they seem to fit their roles really well. My little brother was telling me about the show, and I am pretty sure he loved your cast. A lot of your cast is really easy on the eyes, so that's a plus!
