It took some thought, cause when playing an alien with a non-human standard skin tone, not to mention some physical facial characteristics it can be a bit of a stretch.

I think when it comes to Tala Akaela though, Naomi Scott would do a great job:

Naturally, you have to imagine some prosthetic work, maybe some Alita style CG eyes (Tala's are bigger than a normal human, though not as big as the Alita example). Oh, and a lot of blue makeup/body paint. I am sure Michael Westmore could do it though, lol.

If it helps, here is both a standard picture of Tala if you haven't seen her or want an easy comparison. Also for a more direct example, use this mildly spoilerly MU Tala pic to imagine if Tala looked like a human... as if she was trying to fool people in that universe for some reason...

The image of Brie dragging Cullum across DS13 is suddenly a lot funnier now that Adam Scott is Cullum

Gwendoline Christie. There's be prosthetics and lots of makeup, but she has the build, height, and general facial features to match Zirao.
Yep, Dominic West is Sam. You can now put a face to the kidnappings

I still have no idea who would play Drake. And I’m a bit torn between either Jennifer Lawrence or Emily Blunt to play Evette. I’m quite aware they don’t really look the same at all.

Had a suspicion I would find a thread like this.

I had to think about this one. But, after watching the Diplomat, Keri Russell would be the perfect person to portray Commander Nathes. Sarcastic, witty, overwhelmed with their assignment, and harboring an unyielding focus on the truth. Nobody else.

For no discernable reason (side eye’s @Calyx) I think Lena Headey would be a perfect fit for Jessica Barron-Stern…Ahh I love flushing out characters.

It is still actress Michelle Forbes (Ro Laren / Adm Cain) for Cpt. Trellain De Drowvani-Nimitz.

As silly as it sounds… probably Henry Cavill. But he’d make life hell for everyone on set because he’d be a super lore nerd.

With the beard, of course.

She’s a little taller but has the bubbly personality that can cover Ansha. Also, she can cover a Punjabi accent well. Just put some green makeup on her, some antennae and roll camera.

Karl Urban, dammit. It’s gotta be Karl Urban as Drake.

I mean, I don’t know if he leaps out at me for the choice, but I don’t hate it, either.
