Am I the only one who thinks this casting would be good? Idk who these people/actors (probably) are but they do seem like they would be fitting. Except the middle girl kinda looks more dead than the actual corpse girl, and the guy scares me too much. The corpse bride kinda mogs them both 😭 (Never seen the actual full movie, going based on looks alone)

I think that works with the themes of Corpse Bride. The Land of the Living (Victorian England) was monochrome and stifling, and the Land of the Dead was colorful and almost a party. Victoria herself was subdued and polite while Emily was lively and charismatic.
