First Casting News for Syfy's Being Human Re-Imagining
June 28th, 2010
It's been a while since we've heard anything about Syfy's upcoming "Being Human" re-imagining (or whatever they're calling it these days), but it looks like we know who'll be playing two thirds of the threesome made up of a ghost, vampire, and werewolf. Read on for the details.
According to The Ausiello Files on EW.com, multiple sources are confirming that Sam Witwer ("Smallville") will be portraying vampire Aidan while Meaghan Rath ("The Assistants") has signed on to play ghost Molly. Check out their photos below, and let us know what you think about them playing these characters.
That just leaves werewolf Josh, and according to Ausiello Sam Huntington (Dylan Dog: Dead of Night) is currently in talks for the role, for which Ricky Mabe and Aaron Ashmore both previously tested.
No other details yet on the Stateside version of "Being Human", which is being scripted by Jeremy Carver and Anna Fricke; but keep it here for more because now that they're closing in on the cast, things should start gearing up shortly!

It's great. My only complaint is there aren't nearly enough episodes per season!

Oh shiznit. I thought it was just a movie. I can NOT start catching up on another series. I finally got my SUPERNATURAL seasons,and have started from scratch. I'm on episode 10 (season 1) (Scarecrow). I had made it to season three then lost track,so I wanted to start fresh but finish before the next season starts. Then I have DEXTER to get caught up on. Between that,and I want to keep up with THE GATES (I like it,alot of storylines being laid out and I think it can be good) I can't follow/start anything else. My tv time is VERY limited now.

No new cast needed. The original is great, not old, not in another language, ... No remake/reimagining/re... needed. Me is annoyed.
