I would cast Zoe Saldana as Antigone only because I have always seen her play the rebellious and vengeful but always morally correct. I see her being the sister that would fight for what is right rather than what society says is right. I would cast Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ismene because I saw her in Belle and she would just fit that role perfectly to especially for a period piece such as this.
I think Creons speech would appear on Twitter. He gives me a Donald Trump dictator vibe and it would make sense to put it on a space where people are sure to see it. He’s a King and he should be able to share his opinion with the world because his word is literally law. He is entitled and and arrogant, probably cares about his power and using fear and propaganda instead of compassion to rule.
