Every other Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!
Before we get to the recast results, did you see that the houseboat featured in Sleepless in Seattle is now for sale? You could live out your own Sleepless in Seattle!
As for the recast lists themselves, this week posed a serious challenge in choosing just one list as the winner. Most of all, I loved so many of the Sam-Annie pairings. Some of my favorites include Mari_Sofi's idea of Hugh Jackman and Elizabeth Banks, sweetrae80's adorable suggestion of James McAvoy and Jenna Fischer, jopperma's pairing of James Marsden with Keri Russell, cleegiants' coupling of Matthew Perry and Lauren Graham and the Lee Pace-Jennifer Garner combo that sfmastiffmom suggested.
There were many great Becky ideas as well, like ChrissyBaby's Leah Remini (perfect!), alethe16's idea to cast Angela Kinsey and supertramp's suggestion of Melissa McCarthy (Sookie is ever the best best friend!). Finally, I have to say I loved the suggestion of Sarah Chalke playing Annie, as put forth by leeluvfashion. Such great ideas!
Since I did have to pick just one, however, I finally went with kateymarie's recast list. Congrats, kateymarie! To see who she chose, along with new cast photos, read more.

Carly Pope - blast from the past. Has she done anything recently? I loved her on Popular.
