How Would Sarah Pekkanen Cast Catching Air?

To cast CATCHING AIR, I'd need three very different actresses - women who look nothing alike and can portray characters with wildly different personalities.

  

I think Reese Witherspoon would be perfect for Kira, because she looks the part and because Reese does a great job portraying energetic, charming, type-A women. Kira is a little tightly wound, partly because running the B&B largely rests on her shoulders, and I think Reese could tap into those emotions with a real authenticity. 

 

 

Jennifer Lopez would be a wonderful Alyssa, because she radiates warmth with flashes of passion. Alyssa is a free spirit who has to adapt to one of life's big curveballs, and a woman like Jennifer, who has reinvented herself, would more than do the role justice. 

 

 

My final main character, Dawn, would be a little trickier, because Dawn has such an intense storyline. She's on the run from someone (I don't want to give away spoilers so that's all I'll say!) and she is completely terrified, but as the story progresses, she finds an inner strength. I adore Emma Stone, and I think she could pull off all the emotions required of Dawn's character, so let's hire her for the role!
