Gwyneth Paltrow could've been cast in this exact production. She's the same age as Ben Affleck and she's always looked very good. She looks way younger than Affleck now. Plus, she had worked with Fincher before... I am a little surprised he didn't consider her, though I know Witherspoon was shopping the project as a star vehicle for herself. Fincher has said that his main inspiration for his vision of the character was Carolyn Bessette - maybe Paltrow reads as too laidback California for that kind of patrician East Coaster? I mean, both Affleck and Paltrow were older than their corresponding characters in the novel. I wasn't saying Paltrow should've been precluded while Affleck remained. People also forget that the two dated for a while...not sure if that had any bearing on her viability as a casting selection. I'm sort of hijacking my own thread here, but my original dream picks when the film was announced were Charlize and Bradley Cooper.

Allenism - I want Meghann Fahy and James Marsden! Interesting bit of meta-casting: she is from Boston, he's from Oklahoma - they'd know how to play the cultural differences really well I think.

If we're talking about a modern actress who is capable of playing sweet and demure but also can go buck-fucking-wild, I'd suggest Jodie Comer.
