: Andrew Tunks posted the following article in the Vance Info BBS
: >Wayness Tamm, Zap 210, Alice Wroke, Allusz Tokay Epherigima (spelling?), the tragic Sessily Veeder, Derl the Flower of Cath, Tatzel, the list while not endless is certainly extensive.
: >Who dares to pose mortals for these incomparables from Vanceís imagination?
: I do! I can see Winona Ryder in either of these roles, excepting Sessily and the Flower of Cath. For some reason I deem Ms. Ryder especially suitable for the roles of Zap 210 and Alusz Iphigenia Eperje-Tokay.
: But we will still be lopsided, even if we come up with scores of female thespians. Who should portray Vance's illustrious crooks?
: Agreed, in the Demon Princes book you see precious little of these title characters, but maybe an adaption would change that. Kevin Spacey might make a good Hekkus or Treesong. Kenneth McMillan, who was the Baron in "Dune," could play Larque.

I believe we could have talked Marlon Brando out of seclusion to play Malagate the Woe for $50-100 Million, but rumor has it that he'll be doing Jabba the Hut's grandfather in the upcoming Star Wars Prequel for Lucas. Perhaps less makeup?
