#thank you for fueling my current east of eden fixation

what is the worst east of eden casting you can imagine

oh this is such a good question.

alec baldwin as sam hamilton. i'm including sam hamilton in this production just because the thought of alec baldwin playing him is destroying me.

harry styles as both cal AND aron trask. that's right, through the magic of video editing, we're going to have former one direction frontman harry styles as cal (harry with disheveled hair) AND aron (harry with like. slicked back hair or smth.) surely their scenes will have the intended emotional impact despite being cobbled together from footage of the same guy who objectively cannot act by a team of underpaid interns!

taylor swift as cathy. with at least one taylor swift song featured on the soundtrack that explicitly girlbossifies cathy.

david hornsby with his hair dyed brown as adam trask. i think we as a society could definitely poor little meow meowify david hornsby if we tried hard enough.

lili reinhart as abra. played in the same manner as betty on riverdale.

in 1955 movie adaptation fashion, lee is just straight up not there.

alternately, lee is played by ken jeong or someone equally 1) wildly unsuited for the role and 2) not chinese, causing me to lose the last shred of sanity i have.
