Getting Turned on by Caprica Casting

I'm really getting turned on by the casting of the Battlestar Galatica prequel Caprica. While I don't mean that to sound so dirty, they have cast two pretty hot actors.

A few days ago Sci Fi Wire reported that Esai Morales will be joining the show. Now they are reporting that Eric Stoltz is going to be playing a wealthy computer engineer. They are both incredibly sexy, and terrific actors.

When I first heard that the prequel was going to be more of a night time soap, I was a little reluctant to want to see it. That's changing as the casting announcements are being made. Of course I was a little turned off by the idea of a re-imagined BSG until I saw that Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell were staring in the mini-series.

The producers are doing a great job of attracting really talented people that you wouldn't necessarily associate with Sci Fi. I think that that has been one of the strengths of BSG. I'm now hoping that it carries over to Caprica.
