Look at the bottom of page 10. i posted up an actress who I think would be fit for Jill Pole in my opinion.

Wow, a lot of people seem to like the idea of a "tanning" Jill.
So, here I am to (ahem, TRY) to make amends with both the in-favor-of brunettes, and the in-favor-of blondes.
She starts off as a medium brown color, but as she journeys to narnia, her hair slowly turns a more "blonde" color, just as her skin color changes.
Everyone happy? Anyone happy? ...didn't think so. It was just an idea, after all.
Wait a second... if there's no "I" in "team", then how am I on the team, and if so, why are you lecturing me?
It would make sense for Jill to start out pale, since I understand England is pretty rainy and all I don't think she should have an obvious "tan" when her adventure in Narnia is over, but she would certainly have more color in her cheeks, if that makes any sense.

As for looks, I'm still sticking with my brown colored hair. I don't know why, but blonde just doesn't seem "Jilly" to me. Wow. That sounded conceited. Who am I to judge the beautiful blondes out there???
I actually agree. I never pictured Jill as a blonde. I always pictured her with light to any brown color.
The only blonde I ever pictured was Polly Plummer.

On the casting side, how about Saoirse Ronan (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1519680/) as Jill? She definitely looks the part and she can totally act! She may look a little old, but she's one year younger than Will Poulter.
Nolan, Saoirse would be my dream casting for Jill---the only problem is her age. Will looks young for his age, and Saoirse would probably seem too much older then him. It might even out by TLB but still...
The other problem is she's not very unknown. She has been in Atonement, City of Ember, and most recently The Lovely Bones. I know she can act, I would LOVELOVELOVE her to be Jill as I think that's exactly how Jill should look...it's just those two little problems

Valiant_Lucy, I totally understand. They could probably make her seem quite a bit younger in the film, it would just be a challenge. But yeah, I think her popularity would be the biggest problem. I knew she was in the Lovely Bones, but I didn't realize she had big roles in those 2 other films. Whoops! Unknowns for the win!
I think Dakota Blue Richards would be the perfect Jill Pole, and looks a little like the illustrations. Shes been in a few big productions but is still a little unknown to some people. I posted a picture of her at the end of page 10 if you want to see what she looks like.

This is my idea of Jill:
-long blond/brown hair, slightly wavy; blue eyes, which pass into the green color; bit of a tan; petty relatively tall figure
Actress wich be play Jill should be similar even in character. If the filming will start in 2012, so Will will be 18. So she should be around the age of 16-18.
In 2012 Will Poulter will be 19 actually, Berra friend of Narnia.

I think Jill should have red wavy hair. Not red red, maybe a little blond and brown in it. I think its called strawberry blond. Does anyone agree?
yeah I was thinking that too luv-a-labradoodle.
I still would love for Jill to have like a sandy brown color instead of blonde but with a bit of red tints would be perfect.
I have to disagree on Jill getting a tan in Narnia because as she is traveling toward the north it gets cold and it rains a lot. I like the skin tone of what Camilla Power had in the BBC Version. The actress who plays Jill I feel should become pale throughout the movie instead of gaining a tan.
lol I stayed up till 3am watching Silver Chair last night.

They certainly pick the best for Jill role. We can only discuss how she will look.
Dakota Blue Richards is my ideal person for Jill Pole
She's the same age as Will Poulter, still looks young, is a talented actress, British, and just looks the part.

Yes she is great and the role of Jill would fits to her, but I do not know (I think I'm "old fashioned" ) I just want a new face. I will be very happy when Dakota would play Jill and I welcoming her with open arms
