No, Moretz is very annoying

She can act normal though. Lolita is supposed to act a little annoying anyways because she's a bratty teenager

Maybe she could play a good Lolita but I found her unbearable in the Kick Ass movies (not sure if it's called Kick ass or bad ass but I am sure you've seen them)

I actually think a mini-series might be the best way to approach another adaption.

That would be interesting but I don't know if any networks would pick that up lol.

Moretz is 18 now.

Moretz is so overrated...

reply

I think Kierman Shipka from Mad Men fame could make a good Lolita. She certainly has the acting chops.

Perhaps Jude Law as Humbert?

reply

And maybe Sam Neill or Pierce Brosnan for Humbert though they might be a little old now.

Humbert- either Benedict Cumberbatch or Tom Hiddleston

Lolita - hmmm... Mackenzie Foy?

Charlotte - either Cate Blanchette or Kate Winslet

Quilty - ???? not sure yet

I just can't stand Chloë. She can't be a good Lolita.

I think Drew Barrymore or Juliette Lewis when they were young could’ve pulled it off nicely.
