Some people criticize. Others push you forward.

Try being the second one today.

Someone find me a man as beautiful as Louis In the church episode one because truly I have never seen anyone else who will compare

when you click onto a fandom wiki page and there's a banner at the top saying "we've moved to [new non-fandom wiki hoster], please find us there instead," an angel gets its wings

I wonder what the internet has for me today

Given the reboot/revival trend, "Jem and the Holograms" deserves to join in (And here's my fancast)

Preferably a full-on reboot rather than a revival; it'd be great to see certain scenes with updated/modern animation--plus there were some storylines/arcs I think could've been done or incorporated better (ie Roxy being illiterate and the Jem/Rio/Jerrica love triangle). Given how much 80s music has influenced modern music, I don't think it'll be hard to find songwriters to do the show justice (maybe if they could get Chappell Roan under contract, that'd be AMAZING). And while I'd LOVE for the OG cast who's still alive to return or have new roles, similar to the cast for X-Men: The Animated Series/X-Men '97, here's a fancast just in case they wanted new faces:

Anna Kendrick as Jerrica/Jem--I swear, I was THIS close to saying Amanda Seyfried, but I find it easier to imagine Anna capturing Jerrica's controlling/condescending side (not a jab), as well as having a good voice I'd enjoy hearing as Jem! Idina Menzel was also a heavy contender in my mind, as was Jennifer Lawrence (at least for speaking roles).

Cristina Vee as Kimber--Perhaps it's the vibes I get between Marinette's hyper attitude and Kimber's bubbly attitude, but I think Cristina is my ideal Kimber voice.

Anika Noni Rose as Shana--I've said it before: Anika is an underrated voice actress! I'd love to hear her as Shana.

Kelly Marie Tran as Aja--Speaking of Disney, Kelly's performance as Raya really makes me feel like she'd be a good fit for Aja.

Xolo Maridueña as Rio--Xolo was one of the first actors I considered, and since I'm assuming Rio is Latino (Is Rio's ancestry ever discussed?), a Latino voice actor thus felt appropriate amongst the other choices. If I wasn't focused on that, Yuri Lowenthal, Christopher Sean, and Mensa Massoud were my backups.

Steve Blum as Eric--Someone I'm very familiar with (mostly as Wolverine in various properties), he was the first voice that came to mind for Eric.

Elizabeth Gillies as Pizzazz--What is there to say? The energy (and the singing voice) is there.

Rachel MacFarlane as Roxy--As an "American Dad" fan, her role as Hayley makes me think she can capture Roxy's attitude (because Hayley has her wild moments).

Cree Summer as Stormer--I kept thinking of someone who I could see having a similar (though not identical, of course) voice to Susan Blu's performance, and eventually I landed on Cree, who's a classic voice actor for a reason!

Halle Berry as Synergy--While I think Halle has a youthful voice that may sound a bit young for Synergy, she as a sincerity to her and wisdom that I find synonymous with Synergy.

Hope you liked the ideas! Who would you cast for an animated reboot of "Jem and the Holograms"?
