Beautiful pictures
who would you want to see?
I have no specific actress in mind, but this surly looking English lass doesn't look anything like Laureline. I doubt she can bring the character to life either.
Were there really no redheaded French actresses suitable for the part? I find that hard to believe. Laureline is the star anyway, more than Valérian.
They both dont look the Part.
On the Facial Expressions of the Video I would assume.
The Middle Aged Dude has become an Mid Twenty Half Asian Guy.
And the Red Haired Woman looking mid Twenty has become a Drug Junky lol
I recommend reading the albums. It's one of my favorite comics, and a Sci-Fi classic.
How Laureline became hooked with Valerian is pretty funny story in it self.
Anyway, she's the brains of the duo (as much as the dude likes to think posit otherwise).
It's not like they got a white woman to play an Asian guy.

He's going on about Dr Strange.
It was a cowardly call to appease China, I think (though Tilda did a good job, as she always does). The Ancient One is Tibetan in the comic, and China might have disapproved of Tibetan mysticism being shown in a positive light.
As for the gender flip, that was quite welcome. The old stories are terrible sausage fests.
