Cast for Scorpion House

Cast for House of the Scorpion:

1. Create a Cast the Novel page on your blog

2. Brainstorm which characters you will include in this initial round of casting

- Maria

- Matt- Tam Lin

Gerrard Butler is the perfect choice for Tam Lin because of the clear reason that he is pretty buff something

like Tam Lin. Looks quite like a bodyguard and has some of the same features as a Scottish person

something he shares with the fictitious character Tam Lin! Tam Lin is supposed to be big, looks a bit

uneducated, Scottish and Butler fits all these aspects. Butler looks like he can be soft and tell people the

truth up front. On pages 80-82 Tam Lin is very up front with the Matt and tells him everything he needs to

know.

- El Patron

We believed that he was the man for the job. We think this because he is old and as we saw in the

godfather he did a good job at being powerful and influential. He looks like he is able to rule and control

and enterprise in the world. "He's a clone!" Senator Mendoza cried. "He's my clone!" suddenly El

Patron wasn't the jovial birthday host anymore. He suddenly seemed Dark and dangerous, Like a

creature you might stumble on in

the middle of the night. (Farmer 108)

- Celia: Susan Feniger

She looks like a chef and also looks a bit like a care taker who cares for a child and believes in hope and

believing. And she is also a chef. Looks very supportive and encouraging. She also looks happy and willing

to risk herself for someone she loves. She looks like she is very nice and kind. On page 6 She has to leave

and Matt becomes sad and then she apologizes and is very kind to him.

- Tom: Tom Felton

We liked this as tom as clearly you can see you can see a bit of an evil nature in him. He has the type

of ginger hair that Tom has in the book. They share the same name and most importantly the smile of

Tom Felton reminds me of a person who deceives others and respects the elders. He acts very nice

and respectful but only puts himself first.Tom also looks a bit confident and wealthy to be part of the

big house. We found the description for Tom's vision on page 44 of the book, where Farmer says, "It

was a boy somewhat older than himself, with bristly red hair and freckles." This vision was clearly

matched with what we clearly see above in Tom Felton!

- Rosa:

We think that she should be Rosa because she looks like a maid and could be very demanding and violent. She looks as though she doesn't even try to fake being nice as she does this in the Book as well. On page 37 Farmer says “She looked tall and strong.” She looks just like Monique and she does look angry and like she would kill someone. Moreover, She seems like she could hate someone who is different.
