It's about time for an updated version of the 1960s classic, and we're up to the recast challenge! Click through and see who we chose to play Gilligan, Skipper, and the rest of the crew. YOU DECIDE: Who would you pick to play your favorite 'Gilligan' cast member? Are you listening, Hollywood?![The New Cast]()
We'd have an indie comedy superstar portray "little buddy" Gilligan, a "Star Trek" legend tackle the Skipper, a... well, just click through to find out who made it past the casting couch.![Gilligan]()
Bob Denver was the original Gilligan, and we think indie film star and 'Arrested Development' goofball Michael Cera could match his bumbling charm. Can't you see it? (AP)![The Skipper]()
Captain Jonas Grumby, AKA, the "Skipper" was played by Alan Hale, Jr. We think 'Star Trek' and 'Boston Legal' star William Shatner would be perfect for an updated version of Gilligan's father figure. He's already proven his captain skills as Captain Kirk! (REUTERS)![Ginger]()
'Mad Men''s Christina Hendricks just might be an improvement on the Ginger Grant character.Tina Louise first played the island's resident movie star. (REUTERS)![The Professor]()
The physical resemblance alone is enough to cast 'The Mentalist' star Simon Baker in the role of The Professor. (REUTERS)![Mary Ann]()
"Once Upon a Time's" sexy Ginnifer Goodwin would be smashing as Mary Ann. Former Miss Nevada Dawn Wells was the original brunette. (AP)![The Millionaire and His Wife]()
Jim Backus played Thurston Howell, III, AKA the millionaire, in the original. 'Lost' and '90210' star Alan Dale would be perfect; he's used to playing wealthy old dudes. Natalie Schafer portrayed Eunice "Lovey" Wentworth Howell in the original, but we think the woman behind Lucille Bluth would be a hoot. 'Arrested Development''s Jessica Walter is perfect for the role. Plus her former co-star Michael Cera would be Gilligan, which could help keep the set friendly, at least until Shatner started making outrageous demands and pouting in his trailer.
