Casting Call: Boomer
As before, there is only one Boomer, should a continuation happen: Herb Jefferson Jr.
However, if a remake is to be made, who would you like to see play the role?
Some names to consider and discuss:

Re: Casting Call: Boomer
Donald Faison? Yeah, a good choice. I love him on Scrubs, but I know he can play drama well, too. And whoever 'plays' Boomer needs to have both those elements.

Re: Casting Call: Boomer
Oh man....too many great choices here:
My first choice...
*turns back and flips a cubit*
1. Rainbow Franks
2. Anthony Montgomery
3. Richard Chevolleau
If they do choose a reboot I think they should go with a younger cast for longevity and these lists of actors would really (IMHO) make a great Boomer...awesome choices Malkyte!

Re: Casting Call: Boomer
I think Derek Luke or Anthony Montgomery.
They both look like Boomer.

Re: Casting Call: Boomer
Tough selection. Thought about this one for a while. I've decided to nominate Cuba Gooding Jr. as Boomer. Saw him in "The Tuskegee Airmen". I think he'd fit quite nicely into a Viper cockpit and could portray the character pretty well.
Just my .02 cubits

I also think that Cuba Gooding Jr. would be a good choice for the role.
He's a very good actor and I've seen him in a few movies and really enjoyed his acting talent.

Doggone! That is a good pick. I can see him as Colonel Tigh too, if Alimi Ballard or Rob Brown get the Boomer call.

Re: Casting Call: Boomer
I think I already have a selection for Col. Tigh. Dennis Haysbert from "24" Seasons 1 & 2 and from the CBS series "The Unit". No one would try to "mess around" with him as the Exec.
