I would like Leopnardo di Caprio to play Grand Duke Nicholas Konstantinovich and Roberto de Niro to play Grand Duke Konstantin Nicholevich ---- when the rights of my book are bought by someone.  The question is, who would play Fanny Lear?

Sarah Sutton didn't have Maria's large bust or plumpness but I'm sure a hypothetical 1980 production would have used padding or prosthetic breasts to give an impression of Maria's figure.

I'm guessing you're a Doctor Who fan, Tatiana?

Yes. Grew up with repeats of Old Who before the BBC withdrew the rights to focus on Nu Who.

Eva, looking at a couple of photos of Fanny again how about Emma Stone for the role?

Erik, How nice to hear from you!!! Yes, she would be perfect.... but.... I still have to wait to see if someone would buy the rights to my book. I think it would be a great movie. Love your mini-series....they will sell very quick...

I've been a Who fan since the late 70's, before most of the current cast were even born (although the latest Doctor, Peter Capaldi, is older than I am).

Thanks Eva! I ought to be back writing more soon. Notes take a long time as I'm sure you're well aware.

Keep us posted on any movements with Fanny Lear.

I'm sorry, but as much as I love Naomi Watts, I don't believe she was anything like Diana. The movie was awful too.

My cast:

Alicia Vikander - as young Maria Feodorovna
Mia Wasikowska - as young Princess/Empress Alix
Maryl Streep - as older Empress Alexandra
Anne Hathaway - as Grand Duchess Tatiana N.
Jessica Brown Findlay - as Grand Duchess Maria N.

to love it even while one suffers, because life is all.
life is God, and to love life means to love God.”

Ironic, since I "cast" Jenna as Kole in Days Of OTMA's Lives.

How about Robert de Niro as Grand Duke konstantin Nicholaevich, when my book FANNY LEAR LOVE AND SCANDAL IN TSARIST RUSSIA is made into a movie?
As his son Grand Duke Nicholas Konstantinovich, maybe Leo de Caprio.
