The plot:
The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of their human hosts while leaving their bodies intact, and most of humanity has succumbed. Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, knew about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the too vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.
Melanie fills Wanderer's thoughts with visions of the man Melanie loves-Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer yearns for a man she's never met. As outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off to search for the man they both love.
If they ever make this book into a film I have no doubt it will be absolutely amazing and if done right it could possibly be even better than the book. While reading I envisioned these actors portraying these main characters. With that being said, I present to you The Host cast.
&
Henry Cavill as Jared Howe
&
Alan Ruck as Doc
Channing Tatum as Ian O'Shea
&
Anne Archer as Magnolia "Maggie"
&
Clea DuVall as Sharon
Malin Akerman as Seeker (Lacie)
picture her with dark brown hair
Emmanuelle Chriqui as Jodi (Sunny)
Kristen Bell as Wanderer "Wanda"
There ya have it folks. The Host cast that SHOULD come to past should they ever make this great Sci-Fi novel into a movie. In the mean time I highly recommend reading this book if you haven't already.
Who would YOU cast?...

OMG! I'm pretty sure your cast is PERFECT!
Tom Sizemore?! TOTALLY! Wow... Kudos!
And Kristen Bell... Awesome as Wanda... I really hope she writes the 2nd book so we can see more of her in a different body.
I think you should send your blog post link to Stepheniemeyer.com
Love it!! Especially Henry Caville!
Jared Howe - Jensen Ackles
Jamie Stryder - Logan Lerman
Wanderer/Pet - AnnaSophia Robb
The Seeker - Christina Ricci
Sunny - Anna Friel
Aunt Maggie - Maureen Lipman
Sharon - Amy Adams
Agree with Weird Vision, Jensen Ackles= Jared Howe. No doubt about that.
I think that Ackerman would be better as Wanda.
Drew Fuller as Ian O'Shea.
Alan Ruck is perfect as Doc.
i like your cast, but i imagined them more like this:
Jared: Paul Walker
Jeb: Hugh Laurie
Mel: Odette Yustman
Wanda/Pet: Anna SophiaRobb
Seeker: Christina Ricci
i haven't found who i want for the rest yet. Same as you put for Ian. ;)
i think kellan lutz would make a perfect ian. jessica shozr would make a perfect mel, and i love henry cavill for jared!
I completely have my heart set on Channing Tatum for Jared -- I don't really know, other than that.
Also, it's nice to see a dream cast that hasn't gone down the TV/CW route for once. I'm so fed up of seeing Sophia Bush/Jensen Ackles/Jared Padalecki and now even Jim Beaver parroted around as ideals for these roles. Don't get me wrong, I love them all (huuuugh Spn fan) but they're not right for this film.
Wow That would be an amazing cast for that movie
WOAH!
This cast is perfect!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your Mel!
Almost Exactly how I imagined her!
All apart from your wanda/pet!
I think she may be a bit old! But apart from that... WOW!!!!
