2. Ellen Page
Geek Credentials: Kitty Pryde in X-Men: The Last Stand and the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past, Ariadne in Christopher Nolan's fantastic mind-bender Inception, and she's also lent her voice and likeness to this October's PS3 video-game, Beyond: Two Souls
Who She Should Play: Page has a very youthful face, which would mean that she could potentially play a lead Padawan character, as she would be believable as someone in their late teens or early 20s. Furthermore, her awkward, nervous demeanour in many of her roles would lend itself well to the fear at the state of the galaxy, given that the Empire is presumably trying to take hold of it. Given Page's considerable acting chops, we can see her transform from a shy and retiring sort to a confident warrior over the course of the movie, or even the trilogy. Consider this quite possible, given that Days of Future Past is already well into shooting, and she could surely slot an additional X-Men film in-between Episodes 7 and 8. Ok, I'm thinking way too far ahead, but you get the idea...
