I want Jill with light brown hair so voted brown. Her hair should have some body. A bit wavy in my opinion too. I was stuck between green eyes and hazel but hazel eyes are so unique and pretty so I voted hazel

I agree with you, RiliansQueen, on what Jill should look like
Though I do think that this "The actress has to be this age at the time they make Silverchari" cause it's now really how the industry works. They couldn't care less about what age the ACTRESS is, as long as she/he looks like the age of the character they're going to cast.

I'd like Jill to look like she's the same age or 1 older/younger then Eustace. Of course I'd like her to look like 9, cause that's her age in the book, but Will Poulter doesn't look like Eustace age (in the book) so it's better to choose an actress that can match Wills age rather then her age own in the book...in my opinion.

I envision Jill as a brown-straight-haired, hazel-eyed girl, and as about as tall as Eustace. Probably a few inches shorter would be okay. If Eustace will still be played by Will Poulter, then casting a Jill who's not too short and would look believable in frame with him in a shot would be a requirement for me. She of course would have to be a good actress as well. I liked Camilla Power from the BBC SC a lot, so if they can cast someone who has the same sort of screen presence that would be great!

@stateofgreen- I agree on the brown and straight, but the eyes should be a darker hazel... not green-blue hazel; more like a grey-blue hazel. And yes, she has to be at least as short as Scrubb!

[Jill is] so small; that's what helps.

I like the idea of bangs, I think it would make her seem a tad more shy. And maybe, (this is probably unrealistic) when she is in England, her hair could be more of one length, more blunt. Also I think it should be more wavy and less curly. Then, as the movie progresses, she could develop (as her character does) into a more, outgoing sort of person. Curlier and longer, more exotic hair, brighter eyes, tanner skin, signs that this is different for her and that she's excited. I'm not sure if this should be really subtle or more obvious though... What do you think? (This idea would incorporate the wavy/curly hair and hazel/blue eye predicament.)

I like the hair getting longer idea (like Susan and Lucy in LWW), but I personally don't like her hair changing it's body-type or her eyes changing color, because they are not realistic. Actually, someone could have a lot of body in their hair when it's short, and then when it's long it straightens, but not the other way around (the weight pulls out the curl/wave/body). Also, peoples' eyes may change color slightly over years, or from slate-blue as a baby to whatever color as an older baby/child/adult, but the hazel to blue would really bother me and make Jill seem freaky and...magical or something.

My opinions.

Yeah i agree Lucy of Narnia. I like the idea that perhaps her hair may change slightly or become 'darker' (Not really but just light differently or something, but not an obvious change because i don't know why that would happen.) Lights in films often change peoples features and make thinks look a defferent colour, but hazel to blue would just be odd because they arn't even similar colours. Jill may also look prettyer in Narnia and more uptight and well kept in England because although she strikes me as a slight tomboy who may not worry about general appearence, she does seem to have an opinion of other appearences. But in Narnia I reckon she may "let her hair down" a bit, like Eustace did after the Undragoning in VDT. Not so much as you can relate the change conciously, but just as a sub concious note.

^Yeah, we want sub-conscious, not 'Oh, wow, Jill finally undid the massive French hairstyle that she wore in England' or anything.

I took it from the book that Jill looks to keep clean and tidy, at least to some extent (so calls the enchanted Rilian a 'selfish, self-centred pig' because he didn't show them where they could wash-up before they ate. And it isn't just because she wanted un-germy hands for eating, because she proceeds to wash her face. Thus, I suppose she is not all too happy when she is dirty, grimy, etc. I thinks she should be this way in England and in Narnia.

As far as changes, I would like something like perhaps a tight braid in England, and then loose waves in Narnia? That would work because in a braid, if Jill has wavy hair we would not see that except for at the ends. And it does make perfect sense to pull your hair out of a braid and for it to be wavy, at least for a little while. Seriously though, I would like for the prettiness of the curl/wave whatever (majority of people say that her hair should have some 'body', one way or the other) hidden while in England, and then be revealed in Narnia. If that doesn't happen I wouldn't mind, though- just an idea. Plus it could grow longer throughout the movie, and Jill could be more and more 'free' with it. Like maybe she still pulls it up somewhat or braids it loosely, but by the end of the movie her beautiful waves/curls/whatever flow free and uninhibited, framing her lovely face.

Thoughts?

I always imagined Jill like a girl who has straight, shoulder height dirty blond hair with bangs and brown eyes. And when I saw Jill on BCC's TV miniseries, I realized that how she looks like my imagination about her.

Lu I like the idea of the braid and then showing how it is wavy in Narnia... I just thought of having Jill learn archery in SC? any idea's for that?

I love the idea of wavy hair, definitely the way ahead, a bit blowy looking if you know what I mean.

Ideas about archery, elaborate, do you mean the actress learning or scenes showing Jill learning or what?

like PuddleGlum and Eustace teaching her...alot of people say it is a dark movie and I think it could bring some fun into the movie...she could start out terrible and slowly get better...and it could also show that she is still trying to show off somewhat

That could be a good idea NarnianatHeart. That would be interesting. Are you saying Jill should be learning at school or in Narnia?

Does Eustace know how to shoot? But yes I think she should learn and humour is very important. Hopefully she'll be cured of her showing off by a little failure, that kind of lesson is often best learnt the hard way!

well in the book it said he could....but they didn't show anything like that in the movie
