We'll still see him in HHB and Lb, but I would like to see him in other roles too

I can't wait for HHB and LB, assuming they're made. But I'd like to see Skandar in other roles as well, preferably something romantic.
So what do you fans want to see Skandar appear in? Which genres? Any romantic roles? If so, any leading ladies you have in mind?
@Aslan's Country: I discovered the Univ of Exeter as well, along with Leeds Univ. All four are options, I think. It's rather confusing.

I would love for him to come to America, like William Moseley did and do big budget films in Hollywood, I want to see him in comedy and in drama/romance/supernatural things. I also want him to play a dark like character like a vampire/something similar to The Crow or Dorian Gray.
Like I said above, I'm recently writing a book having Skandar in mind for the second main character. (the books that I write and make money off goes to half a charity for Epilepsy Foundation to find a cure and half for my movie production I want to get going) so the book I will write will most definitely go under movie rights under my name. The book is taken place in the late forties, an American young woman with a troubled past in the US goes to England to start a new life. It's a vampire story, but not anything along the lines of Twilight. This is real vampirism. I was thinking of Emily Osment to playing the American girl who falls for Skandar's character.

@Damsel: I don't want to see Skandar in anything dark, especially anything along the lines of Dorian Gray or Twilight. I'd rather see him in a classic romance, i.e. something by Jane Austen or a Victorian writer. And I'd love to see Skandar in a religious film.
^I said it wouldn't be anything like Twilight. I won't go into the religious thing because this isn't exactly the forum for that. I don't mean dark as in him playing some devilish boy. A character who is dark who wants revenge or to avenge some one. He's got that dark and mysterious look in his eyebrows. As far as my book goes, it's nothing that will upset the Christian population. It's purely mythical and fictional

@Damsel: I don't like vampires. Except for Narnia, I don't like science fiction or horror either. I want Skandar to be in something clean and wholesome. That doesn't mean it has to be for children or G/PG. [Nothing R, please. ]
That's cool that you don't like vampires 220ChrisTian. I don't either, the mythology behind them just fascinates me. And people have their diferent opinions besides you and me. Either way, my book is half way written, and once I get my production up and running, Skandar is my first choice. The only thing I want to know from you is would Emily Osment make a good costar for him or not? Please be bit reasonable.
Edit It's just one movie, and our Pevensie's are growing up, not all the actors in the world stick to just one genre. This is just a genre I want to see Skandar take on.

@Damsel: fine. ... Emily Osment?! NO!
Then why in the world are you asking peoples opinions??:

Do think that because it was your idea to ask that you can bash my feelings? Litterally I am upset right now, that you will not even give a costar of my opinion a chance because you don't agree with my story.
Emily Osment comes from a well respected family of actors. Her father is considered one of the best. Her brother got best child actor ever coming from Sixth Sense and AI.

I'm sorry I offended you. I wish now I'd never brought it up.
I know nothing about Emily Osment. I haven't seen her in anything. [Yes, I know her brother Haley but I haven't seen him in anything either.] My problem: I just can't see Skandar with a blonde (what color is her hair?). Just looking at her, I don't think they match very well. I know that sounds strange, but... I'd rather see him with Georgie.
Okay thanks. Actually I only like her look. The character herself in the book has light brown hair. Actors can dye their hair. Emily did that in one of her previous films. They do in fact have a lot in common. They both horse back ride, they are both athletic and they love soccer, but for Skandar it's football. Same sport.(but I don't want to compare them as a real couple) only costars right? Also I see what you mean about Georgie but she's American in the book so I'd rather an American.

So they have a lot in common. Interesting...
An American goes to England: familiar theme. Makes me think of Henry James...
This thread is drifting away into other actors/actreses and personal book projects and overly sensitive responses to things. Please stay on topic and remember to be respectful per the Narnia Forum rules guidlines.
Discussing Skandar's roles outside the Narnia films is permitted; provided they are actual or potential roles mentioned in reliable news stories. Outside of that, please refrain from anything that is strictly personal.
Thank you.

There is definitely no "a" in definite.

@GlimGlum: We can't discuss what we'd like to see Skandar or other actors in? Everyone: ignore my question on the previous page.
We can discuss some of there other parts as in roles they have already been cast in. Random speculation about what part you would like to see him in is off topic. It falls into rumors and gossip since there are not any publicly released facts about those roles. From the first post in this thread:
1) Skandar Keynes in his role as Edmund
2) Skandar Keynes in his other roles and public appearances
3) Skandar Keynes in the news! (Gossip is still off limits!)
