Okay. Let's look a who we have nominated:
Taylor Schilling
Samantha Mathis
Jodie Foster (too old?)
Angelina Jolie (too famous?)
Kate Beckinsale
Claire Danes
Angie Harmon
Dana Perino
Candace Cameron
Marjorie Monaghan

You taking notes, Scott?

Anna Torv should be Dagny Taggert. Watch one episode of Fringe and you'll see why.

First of all, I loved the novel. The fact that you did a very cheap production of this classic is bad enough, but to not do whatever it took for the sake of consistency and quality regarding the massive and unacceptable changes in actors is an insult to Ayn Rand. You should have moved mountains to keep Taylor Shilling and the rest of the more than apt cast or given the project to someone who had to ability and class to do so. I was disgusted and deeply disappointed that you ruined what could have been a decent trilogy. I totally agree with the person who lobbied for a re-shoot of II and returning the original cast from the first film. Ugh! You did not honor the memory of Ayn Rand one bit by your ineptitude. You made a discount store version of part two and it, frankly, stunk.

Preferred Taylor - alternative might be Piper Perabo

taylor, hands down... as well as as many of the part 1 cast as you can muster... michael linden

Taylor for me as well.

Melissa George. Any doubts, check out Cinemax series, "Hunted". She can do Dagny like no other.

For consistency's sake, the third part should have an all new cast. But they'd have to be better than either previous group. Jodie Foster is a bit too old, although she still looks gorgeous at 50. I think she could still pull off a 37-year-old Dagny. Angelina Jolie sees herself as a real-life Rand character but is too famous to be seen as anything but Jolie. Charlize Theron is too tall. But if a repeat cast is planned, Taylor Schilling is my preference.

This one is easy. Naomi Watts

Taylor Schilling IF you can get her away from Netflix and Orange is the new Black. She IS Dagny. The other one just doesnt believe the role she is playing. Taylor is so believable.

Hands down, without a doubt, Taylor Schilling IS Dagny Taggert! And for that matter, the more of part 1's cast you get, the better the movie will be.

Taylor and yes, the actors should read Atlas Shrugged but also The Fountainhead.

The entire cast of Part 1 was much stronger than Part 2. In fact, Part 2 was difficult to watch. The actors were just that: actors. They never became their characters.

Taylor Schilling!

Taylor without a doubt. She was perfectly cast in my opinion.

Agree with those who found the cast from Part 1 a more appealing representation of AS characters. So it would be Taylor from ASP1. Taylor was a much better Dagny. She was far more compelling in the role. Do what you must to bring back Taylor. And we certainly don't need a third Dagny for even more confusion and embarrassment.

... The whole AS1 cast. Only change .... Daniel Craig as Galt :-D

as we all know angelina jolie wouldn't do it - you have to have someone who has the same aura as angelina. someone with a lot of depth, in their thirties, etc. like charlize theron. adrianne palicki, ali larter, anna paquin, diane kruger (terrific), evangeline lilly, january jones, julia stiles, katherine heigl, katie holmes,

Give us a chart with the names and photos of the main characters of EACH part (1 and 2) and a check box to show preference for the actor in 1 or 2, and I think you'll have a more useful poll.

For example, I would prefer Dagny 1 and Francisco 2....

Taylor

Bring back entire cast from Part 1!!!!!!!

Taylor, without question

Taylor from Part 1 is the ONLY choice! If fact, PLEASE bring back the ORIGINAL cast! The cast from Part 2 was a HUGE let down and really ruined the movie for us! I bought Part 1 in pre-sale and will not buy Part 2. Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1! Taylor from Part 1!

... by the way... Dagny had brown hair.
