There are just some people we can’t live without on our television sets.
Remember when we first set eyes on Marcia Cross? She had an iconic role as Bree Van De Kamp on ABC’s hit Desperate Housewives. Where is her character today and has any of her traits changed?
Then there’s Charlie Hunnam from Sons of Anarchy. The dude may be having a successful movie career, but it doesn’t help us see him on a weekly basis, right? Wouldn’t he fit in very well on Game of Thrones?
Have a look at our gallery of stars we adore and their next potential career move and what it means for the character!
Scheming Opportunist on Empire – Bethany Joy Lenz
Lenz’ most notable role to date has got to be that of Haley James Scott on One Tree Hill. She would be a fantastic addition to Fox’s hit series Empire. She could easily play a scheming opportunist who blackmails Jamal with some very dirty secrets about his family in order to secure a lucrative record deal.
Game of Thrones Villain – Charlie Hunnam
Hunnam may have left Sons of Anarchy behind, but he should be back on the small screen like now! With his rugged good looks, wouldn’t Charlie Hunnam be a natural fit to portray a villain on Game of Thrones? His character could be a nemesis for Khaleesi as she tries to reason with the Dothraki clan, now that it looks like she’ll be with them a while.
Obsessed on Mistresses – Blake Lively
Is anyone else missing Serena from Gossip Girl? Let’s be honest, Blake Lively would slot right into the show as one of the mistresses, but what if she had some beef with Joss and just so happened to be working her way through her back catalog of men? Is she obsessed, or is it all just a coincidence?
A Shared Past on Grey’s Anatomy – Nina Dobrev
Nina Dobrev officially bid adieu to The Vampire Diaries a few months back, but we’re already missing Dobrev from the TV landscape. What if she showed up ay Seattle Grace as a new doctor, who just happens to share a past with another doctor? This sounds like a winner to us!
Weirdly Obsessed on Supergirl – Teri Hatcher
Where is Teri Hatcher right now? She was on ABC’s smash Desperate Housewives. What if Kara saved Hatcher’s character from a certain death and it lead to a weird obsession? Hatcher would literally be showing up everywhere Kara is and she’d be sending her threatening messages, but why is she doing this? We’d have to tune in for the truth!
A New Teacher on Teen Wolf – Adam Brody
Brody shot to fame on The OC, but he’s not had much luck with subsequent roles. There can never be enough teachers in Beacon Hills, right? What if Brody played a new teacher, who just happened to be a werewolf and had some vital information for Lydia about her banshee problem?
Amnesiac on The Vampire Diaries – Sarah Michelle Gellar
Sarah Michelle Gellar loves vampires, right? She battled them for seven years on Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Remember that flash forward that concluded The Vampire Diaries Season 6? What if Gellar showed up as a woman with amnesia who foretold what was going to go down? She’d be ruled crazy, but when the city is in ruins, she could be the key to restoring order? Intrigued yet?
Rags to Riches on Blood & Oil – Elena Satine
Elena Satine was a real scene stealer on the final season of Revenge. What if Louise ditched the Hamptons and headed back to her southern roots to start a new life, but a deal goes wrong and she ends up broke? This is a riches-to-rags-to-riches story we want to see on TV!
New Beverly Hills Resident on Devious Maids – Marcia Cross
Marcia Cross loves soapy dramas. She began in Melrose Place, before moving to the suburbs on Desperate Housewives. Can you imagine if Bree Van De Kamp hot footed it to Beverly Hills and moved next door to Evelyn? These two redheads would fight to the death over a secret from their past, but would it be dark enough to be the mystery of the season?
Hot Doctor on Code Black – Patrick Dempsey
Dempsey is arguably one of the most famous TV stars. He spent almost 12 years on Grey’s Anatomy. He may have been let go from Grey’s, but that could be Code Black’s gain. He has a massive following and could show up as a character VERY similar to McDreamy. It could happen, but he’d need to remain single unless Ellen Pompeo miraculously moved over with him,
A Demon on Once Upon a Time – Ioan Gruffudd
Ioan Gruffud needs a new show right now. Hearts were broken when ABC swung the axe on Forever a few weeks back. What if Emma isn’t alone as the dark one? There must be A LOT of evil beings in the world of Once Upon A Time. Gruffudd could portray a demon who must keep her on the path to evil… his life would literally depend on it.
A New Producer on UnREAL – Mary Louise Parker
Parker turned in a flawless role as Nancy Botwin on Showtime’s hit series, Weeds. She could show up as a field producer vying for Quinn’s job and will go to any lengths to get it. Can you imagine the witty arguments between Constance Zimmer and her? It would make the frothy drama even more better.
A New Writer on Scream – Elaine Cassidy
Elaine Cassidy portrayed the character of Abbie Mills in the CBS summer slasher series, Harpers Island. What if a new writer showed up wanting to write about the killings in Lakewood? The twist would be that the killings are unsolved, but she would have a manuscript written which pegs Emma as the murderer and has an extensive amount of evidence to back this up. WTF?
