Bill Cameron's "Lost Dog," the movie

Now showing at My Book, The Movie: Bill Cameron's Lost Dog.

The author's entry opens:

Way back when I first started writing Lost Dog, I was already visualizing the movie version. As each new character materialized on the page, the casting director in my mind was on the job. The brooding, yet smart-assed form of John Cusack would be Peter. Dennis Farina as crusty Skin Kadash. Gillian Anderson as perky Ruby Jane (yes, I confess to a deep and abiding Scully crush). Jake was a tricky one, and while I never settled on a specific choice, any of the boy toys from Beverly Hills 90210 had the inside track.

A few of these actors have grown too old for the roles, so read on to see which fresh faces Cameron has in mind to now play the characters.
