Hollywood is doing 'Dallas' - an upcoming feature film based on the CBS drama series from 1978-1991. Here's who Variety says is being considered ... and a few who aren't.

J. R. EWING
Original: Larry Hagman - Deliciously evil
Proposed: John Travolta - He can play mean
Proposed: Mel Gibson - Divinely inspired?
Proposed: Kevin Costner - A 'good old boy'
Proposed: Tommy Lee Jones - He's a Texan!
Our Pick: Donald Trump - Tycoon with good & evil sides

SUE ELLEN EWING
Original: Linda Gray - Sweet and clueless
Proposed: Catherine Zeta-Jones - Loves older men!
Proposed: Demi Moore - But it's clear she likes 'em young!
Proposed: Jennifer Lopez - Texas-sized booty
Our Pick: Martha Stewart - She and Trump are a pair, right?

BOBBY EWING
Original: Patrick Duffy - Eternal good guy
Proposed: Matthew McConaughey - Texan, but too naughty
Proposed: Owen Wilson - Texan, but even naughtier
Our Pick: Zach Braff - 'Scrub' in for a zany Bobby!

PAMELA EWING
Original: Victoria Principal - Always breathless
Proposed: Drew Barrymore - She could do the voice!
Proposed: Reese Witherspoon - She's got the twang
Our Pick: Keira Knightley Just hot enough

LUCY EWING
Original: Charlene Tilton - Hopelessly spoiled
Proposed: Lindsay Lohan - Understands dysfunctional families
Proposed: Jessica Simpson - How 'bout Lucy Duke?
Proposed: Mandy Moore - Just about right
Our Pick: Hilary Duff - Plus, she can sing!

I have a challenge for you. You get to play casting director. You get to pick whoever you want to be a part of the Ewing Family as long as they fit the original description. Let's see who gets to stay at SouthFork Ranch as "You Cast the Cast"!
