Casting the Bible Movie: Zac Efron and Whoopi Goldberg
Great job, casting directors: according to the stats on the previous Casting the Bible Movie post, Orlando Bloom would play David or Jonathan, while America Ferrera would play Ruth or Esther!
Anyway, it's time to cast another Hollywood movie or two. This time, you need to cast Zac Efron and Whoopi Goldberg (though not necessarily in the same film.) Who would they play?
Have fun! Over the weekend, we'll compile the answers to reveal Revelife's casting selections!

I would casr Zac as Joseph with the coat of many colors and the favored son....
Whoopi could be cast as Sarai, Sarah Abrahams wife, she laughed at what God was going to do...
Am I the only person who could care less about Zac Efron?????
honestly...I could see Zac as Saul...
Whoopi? idk, I think Hennabreath got it right...
Whoopi could be Lot's wife
Zac I would say Joseph
Yeah, I like Zac as Joseph as well! Saul? No way! That would need to be someone tall and imposing with broad shoulders and dark handsome features like Russel Crow or Hugh Jackman.
Whoopi = Lot's Wife
Zac = Little Jesus
If this was the Bible re-interpreted as comedy, I can totally see Whoopi as the Queen of Sheba "wise"cracking with King Solomon.
Zac Efron... He might be a good Jonathan to Orlando Bloom's David. I can also totally see him as Joshua too.
Hmm.....I think Zac could be Joseph
LOL I totaly agree with @shedreamer@xanga , Whoopi should be Lot's wife!!
Joseph, and.... uh. I don't know. I haven't actually read the Bible, I just know a bunch of the stories. >.>
i was thinking about when I think it was Saul contacted the Medium...these two would be great
Zac as Daniel or Jonathan; Whoopi as Sapphira, the Medium (whom Saul went to, ditto on that quiet_strength), or Sarai (ditto, hennabreath)
Efton = Absalom
Goldberg = Lucifer, Ol' Scratch himself
@hubbaduh@xanga - Nope. I don't even know who the fuck he is, ergo I could not care less.
Whoopi Goldberg as the Queen of Sheba!!
Zac Effron as Cain or Absolom--but he would need more hair.
You can see how much I like Zac. :P
Since Efron has agreed to star in the Footloose remake...
I would say he should lead everyone in cavorting before the golden calf in the wilderness, before Moses and Joshua come down with the ten commandments.
Whoopi... She could be the witch (medium) of Endor that Saul consults with to call up the ghost of Samuel, befitting her role in Ghost.
Both would seem fitting.
Whoopi ought to be the angel Gabriel(a). I know all of the angels are cast as men (I think they're really genderless), but I think she'd have fun telling Mary that she's going to have a baby.
Let's see...my roommate knows Zac Efron and he's extremely conceited...soooooooo probably some wayward person. :) JK or Joseph would actually be good...if you age him up, Noah could be a possibility...hahhaa or Adam if you really want to go there. :)
I'm gonna say Whoopi as an angel for some story. It seems fitting. Don't ask me why though. ha
zac efron should be a young david.
i can't think of anyone who whoopi goldberg should play.
@hubbaduh@xanga - No... I think he's overrated. lol
For some reason, the first person that came to my  mind for Whoopi was Ruth.  I do think it's funny thought that everyone keeps suggesting people who die (I mean...REALLY. Lot's wife?????  I'd think more a Paris Hilton type for that haha)
Zac Efron... he definitely looks like  he could be a David or someone.  If he grew his hair a little he might make a good Sampson.  (To Vanessa Hudgens' Delilah? HA Just kidding)
Zac - I could totally see Joseph or Daniel, or perhaps the prodigal son?
Whoppi - I like the Queen of Sheba idea! Or maybe Deborah.
Zac Efron- Joseph (Old Testament)
Whoopi Goldberg- ??
I could see Zac as Soloman or Joseph.
Whoopi...Saul's medium.
I like the idea of Zac as Joshua or paired with Orlando as Jonathon or David.
Whoopi...that's hard. I can't see her as anything haha.
