Members Tishy Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 REG just came off playing Mimi in Rent in which she got rave reviews. Rent just ended and if she wasn't talented enough, they would never have let her close that award winning amazing show. I think that when enough time passes, REG absolutely can play Dru. I always saw Dru as strong, independent, fierce but with a touch of vulnerability. REG can definately do that. Mimi is more of a Dru than an Olivia IMO.

Members soapluva Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 Someone like Vivica A Fox or Gabrielle Union comes to mind when I think of a Dru recast . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 now you got to be pulling my leg GU don't look like she could have had Lily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapluva Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 You're right but she definitely has the attitude to pull off Dru !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 Everyone said Heather Tom could never be replaced, and they were proven wrong. Even the high-profile Joan Van Ark was successfully replaced (with a much better actress IMO). Drucilla can be recast. How about Nia Long as Dru?

Members David_Vickers Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 I wish ONE LIFE would bring Renée back as Evangeline. ONE LIFE needs more than just one African-American actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 My answer would be no, but I think it's unfair to say she will lack the "fierce" factor, when she's never been given the chance to show it. It's like how everyone said that Heath Ledger would make an awful joker, and he surprised us all. Remember it's an actor's job to embody the role. I think Renee Jones or even Amelia Marshall would make a better choice though, I was never a big fan of RG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted September 14, 2008 Members Share Posted September 14, 2008 No they weren't. Most people still don't see AH as Victoria and want HT back. Would she ever consider doing daytime again? I guess I could sorta see her as Dru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted September 15, 2008 Members Share Posted September 15, 2008 On this board, yes. But I've seen polls on other boards where Amelia has won over Heather. It is interesting how opinions vary from board to board. For instance, most people on SON prefer DS to CK as Lily, but look at the results of this poll on SOC. I actually think the audience is about 50/50 on Heather vs Amelia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Southofnowhere Posted September 15, 2008 Members Share Posted September 15, 2008 Isn't she too young? BTW i just seen Renee in an Steven Segal action flick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cyberologist Posted September 15, 2008 Members Share Posted September 15, 2008 I think Renee is a highly skilled actress and could pull it off but I would like her return to daytime to reprise the role of Evangeline Williamson. That is just my preference...but isn't she still on Broadway or is that over??...my thing is I have read rumors as to why Victoria left her role so? If these are true what is going to change here?
