- Barrymore as Jessie preferred by two; historical-era proposal distinct current remake.
- Current Jack: Josh Burlin haunting choice, Clooney rejected as default. Separate three options Costner, Gibson baggage, Cranston with Jesse Pinkman analogy; Costner enthusiasm.
- Chastain Amber emphatic choice with age disagreement, considered workable.
- Styles/Chalamet Dirk suggestions; Teller/Powell Dirk/Reed too old/cool, Cruise Jack joking enthusiasm; Efron ten years earlier admired, Chalamet physicality questioned.
- Sydney Roller Girl emphatic, Pugh twist, Anya Taylor Joy doubted Valley plausibility; Majors Buck, Plemons Scotty praised.
- Dunst/Johansson Amber debated age but plausibly youthful, Chastain reaffirmed; Robbie most exciting additional choice, earlier would be Roller Girl.
- Downey Jr current Jack versus 1996 Dirk or Reed hypothetical, personal timeline uncertain, comedy admired.
