It also says that lynda carter has been cast in a role but doesnt say what the role is..

[MaryAnne]

She'll probably be Lulu Hogg!!!! :D


Now that's interesting. This Gainey dude was on Bad Day in Hazzard.....was he the one that ended up wearing the Sheriff's uniform?? How ironic is that?? ROFL

Even though Rosco has been cast already, I thought of a great actor to play Rosco... Christopher Guest. He has the comedic talent and can do a fair southern accent. Whaddya'll think?

[dukesfan1979]

Hey ya'll
I still say that Tomme Lee Jones would have played a great
sheffif roscoe. I guess that was just a rumor. any thoughts?

[Dasy_General_01fan]

Its just my opinion...but that guy doesn't look like he would make a good Roscoe. It sounds kinda wierd but...he doesn't look like he could throw insults like ole Roscoe! :)

[Capt_Redneck]

With the movies and roles he has played, he seems tobe more of a meaner character. Maybe that is the direction they are going with Roscoe for the movie....Let's hope not...

The new Rasco! WOW what an actor M.C. Gainey. I was on set meet with him talked and what a nice guy. Not to give away the plot but this Rasco is not playing any games with the Dukes. Hope ya love the movie... Great to spend time with you M.C. what a great comrade.

[Capt_Redneck]

The early rumors that I heard regarding the casting of Lynda Carter was that her character was to be "Jesse Duke's girlfriend". Has anyone else heard this?

No, sorry, but i did just think of a good roco............Mr. Jeff Foxworthy, i dont know, something just says he would have made a good one, maybe not i dont know.

[travelerF150]

I think Jeff Foxworthy would've been a good roscoe too. I think Larry the Cable Guy would make a good Cledus.

[dukesfan1979]

yes I agree, ol Jeff Foxworthy would do just fine. I can picture Jeff doin some "cuffin and stuffin". lol...

[T-Man]

who could of bill engval and ron white have been?, if all the blue color boys was in it, it would be pretty cool, a big o redneck time i guess you could say!

[malchus]

I just read an article about the movie on MTV.com. They said they were going to make Roscoe less "hokey" and the laught would be gone.. I just can't imagine an uptight Roscoe. He always made me laugh. What are the dukes with "Dipstick" and "Goo, Gi Gi"

The article had some new pix also.

[gimp2005]

wow mc gainey is deffiantly more serious than james best diffrent uniform too ! but at least velvet ears is there at least he isn't a big hukking dog
i wonder tho how many police officers there will be? possibly 6? scary eh?
anway later gang!@

[MaryAnne]

Yeah... MC Gainey "No disrespect to the original but that was hokey."

NO %*(!$* Sherlock!!! It was supposed to be you dipstick!!! Jit!!

Frankly, they're probably having Rosco serious because they couldn't find an actor to properly protray Rosco. Kudos to James Best for breaking the mold. KHEE!

[gimp2005]

ok a freind of mine walked on set w/ his son and wife met mc gainey{ who loved the little guy even made the kid laugh lol} they spotted jessica and she just about fell inlove w/ brendon she held him and when she did he put his head on her shoulder johnny and seann said hi to him briefly lucky little guy got a kiss from daisy duke{lucky kid!} anyway he might get the pictures on the internet fairly soon.....

[Eddiemunster]

This might have been mentioned before, but Willie Nelson as Uncle Jesse?
That's got to be fun to watch!!! :)
