Dream-casting “One More Kiss” by Samantha Chase


Catching up with Samantha Chase, Marienela asked one of its favorite authors whom she will chose to play the lead characters if “One More Kiss (Shaughnessy: Band on the Run)” is made into a movie. Below is her answer.

I have dreams of the Band on the Run series being made into movies like you wouldn’t believe! Of course I’d have to include Riley’s story too for the whole thing to be complete, but all in all, I would love to see it happen!

Ryan Guzman

So for One More Kiss (Shaughnessy: Band on the Run), who do I see playing the parts? It’s times like this that I really feel my age! Young Hollywood is soooooo much younger than me!!! But I will move beyond my old age and say that this would be a fairly awesome cast:

Matt: It’s hard when you get a cover for a book and it has a model on it and then you have to think of something like this. In my mind, Matt is the model on the cover of the book. But once I move beyond that, I envision Ryan Guzman. He’s just yummy and I can totally picture him being a smoldering, sexy rock star.

Vivienne: In my mind, Vivienne looks almost like a gypsy with big dark eyes and dark hair and so when I look at today’s actresses, I would pick Emmy Rossum. I think she captures that semi-exotic look that fits Vivienne.

Aaron: Jonny Weston. Aaron is all about business and someone who looks really good in a suit. Plus, I envision Aaron being a good-looking guy, just not rock star good-looking. 

Savannah Shaughnessy: Camilla Belle. I think she’s beautiful and yet has more of a classic look to her which I always thought of for Savannah.

Riley Shaughnessy: I feel like I have a hard time picking just ONE actor on this one. I see Riley in a lot of different actors but I think the one that comes up the most is Penn Badgley. He can do the scruffy and sexy look as well as the sleek and sexy looks. How can you go wrong?
