Who is Dagny Taggart?
Beautiful, tenacious, and fearless, Dagny Taggart has inspired women and men alike for over 50 years.
As Atlas Shrugged Part 3 heads to production, some major decisions still lay ahead. For the past several months, we've read all over the web everything from "Taylor was PERFECT!" to "Samantha IS Dagny!" to "You should have case [INSERT NAME HERE]!"
Now it's time for you to tell us directly. Who is Dagny Taggart?
Taylor from Part 1? Samantha from Part 2? If you had to pick someone else, who would it be? Beyond her ability to embody the character of Dagny Taggart, what else should be considered when casting Dagny? Should she already be an advocate of Ayn Rand's ideas? Should she have at least read Atlas?

Dagny is difficult to cast because she is so incredible. Rand describes her as being elegantly beautiful, strong, poised, and commanding. I have been in love with Dagny since I first read Rand in college.
I loved the original cast. The second one absolutely not! Stick with one or the other but please don't recast yet again.
Other ideas: Lena Headey, Natalie Portman, Keira Knightley, Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, Rose Byrne,
If I didn't know better, I would think the cast from one were the main producers in the gulch. lol
I concur with most everyone commenting that the cast from Part 1 is the way to go.
