Who would you cast as (a alternate) Cameron & Allison?
Jan 18 2011, 12:00 PM EST | Post edited: Jan 18 2011, 12:36 PM EST
Let us imagine that T: SCC gets green light in 2012 for another four seasons. But SG is not available, for various good reasons. For example, Prince Harry of Wales changes his mind and marry her. ;)

Then, which actress do you think could replace her in the role of Cameron Phillips and Allison Young? So to excel performing as a cold gynoid and a crazy girl?

My vote is for Humanity's Grandma: the Cylon cutie known as Grace Park.

It's a matter of personal taste.

I prefer Cote de Pablo:

NO WAY!
First, Summer cannot be replaced in her role as Cameron/Allison. It's that plain and simple!
Second, Grace is a cop now, so she only may replace Ellison ... :-P

Third and most decisive, in 2012 Grace will marry Alex O'Loughlin to meet the shipper longings of Hawaii Five-0! :-))

See? NO WAY! ;-P

I also prefer to not even consider the possibility of Cameron / Allison role being recast to anyone else besides Summer Glau for any reasons whatsoever. It would be too sad for me, and I don't think I would care much for a continuation if this happened. It would just not be the same at all. Do you find this valuable?

1) What? And I thought, it's canon that Summer never ever can be replaced ... ;-))

2) From where should we know her?

Thank you, Losa, for the backup! ;-)

(PS: I read, these days they are starting to shoot season 4 of Breaking Bad!)

Generally speaking, I agree with you.

But in considering the situation posed in the OP, I think it reasonable to speculate, as many of us had fun with in the thread I cited at the bottom of my post.

It sounds like you may be in the camp of preferring no continuation at all if Summer is not available. Duly noted.

Cote de Pablo plays agent Ziva David in the NCIS TV show. Her character is a former Mossad (Israeli intelligence agency) operative. Ziva is very smart and accomplished in all sorts of hand-to-hand combat and firearms. Cote does a good job playing the part.

Not that hard to back you up on that one, man. No real fan likes to see a major character recast to another actor or actress. Much less our beloved Cameron, right?

Good to know about Breaking Bad (even though not to go hopelessly OT here). Should still be about 5 or 6 months to a premiere air date, though.

1) Of course it's ok to speculate ... That's why I used the smilies. :-)

2) The truth is, I would have issues, when any of the TSCC core cast should be replaced.
Nevertheless I probably even in this case couldn't resist to at least give it a try.
But sadly I'm afraid we never will have that "problems" at all, since there won't be any kind of continuation ... :-(

3) Ah, I see, thank you for explaining.
No wonder that I don't know her. I don't watch all these XYZ-CIS shows. Just not my cup of tea. ;-)

MT, I was think Park at first as well...she has played a robot before and done it well.

TNT, your girl is too Eastern Euro looking: the look of the T for a female would have to be pretty enough not to stand out in a crowd, but with no discerning features that would make her identifiable. You can spot a Russian/Slavic chick a mile away.

I was thinking of Brigette Fonda or Juliette Lewis or Winona Ryder as these all have good acting chops plus can do both the stern look of a atificial human plus give it a quiry quality we real skin jobs would find amusing.

But if I had one solitary vote only my obvious choice would be Chola. We would find that the Engineer got her back to this time period and she has been a plant ever since. But since she didn't kill Sarah or John, and didn't budge when Cam threatened to kill her - setting off a T vs. T battle (since we know they can sense one another) she must have some agenda/programming of her own. Maybe to help the metal faction fortify itself in the future: something OUR guys should be doing!

She's already a part of the story, mysterious, and has that cool capability that honestly, we already know few humans can muster. And she's a fan fav!

I would "cast" someone to remove the "good reasons"...
Really, not joking, I casted TWO different actress: the more similar to SG for Allison, the other one for a "facially reconstructed after the wounds" Cameron (I believe they would recover the original body, to rapidly have again Cameron in the show/movie).

P.S. What's the device in the second photo?

We have had threads about recasting all the main characters, including http://www.sarahconnorfans.com/thread/2945980/If+Summer+hadn%27t+been+casted+as+Cameron?maxResults=20

The above thread was filled with posts saying that NOBODY should be recast as Cameron. If that is how you feel, that's fine, but repeatedly stating it here would be off topic, and really would be a kind of trolling.

My suggestions were Devon Aoki, Ellen Page, and maybe Michelle Trachtenberg.

Devon Aoki could pull off the robotic girl very well.


Ellen Page is the typical innocent high school student, it would be cool seeing her throw T888s through walls.


Michelle Trachtenberg....OK maybe not the best cyborg. but she is hot.

I think, if a new cast will be, they will cast cheaper actor/actress... So you can stop to post known names.
I agree Devon Aoki had been another good cyborg... I say another since she appears too cold-blooded to play a growing Cameron (IMO)

The thread t­itle is 'who would YOU cast', so we can name anybody.

It's just for fun, right?

Chola is a good pick, too. I like that.

I appreciate your insights on Cote de Pablo's Eastern European Russian/Slavic appearance.

Just for the record, she is Hispanic. Her real name is María José de Pablo Fernández. She was born in Chile and went to high school in Miami, FL.

Sorry, but I think, since we're thinking and proposing new names, we should consider plausible ones (so, no expensive ones, no busy ones)...
If the idea is to simply suggest plausible names that anyone of us could like, I agree about Devon Aoki (I remember her in Sin City).

Perhaps the least expensive actress that has been proposed so far is Sabrina Perez. And she is a decent candidate.

Well the guy who started the thread suggested Grace Park, so I figured Devon was in the budget.

Ok then, I suggest the girl who played Ophelia in my local high schools version of Hamlet. Sorry, no pic!
