Here Dugoni dreamcasts an adaptation of his new novel, The Eighth Sister:
When I wrote The Eighth Sister I had Denzel Washington in mind to play Charles Jenkins. Jenkins is African American, over the age of 60, but fit and very competent. I’ve since had people suggest making Jenkins younger so that Will Smith or Idris Elba could play him. All of them would be fantastic and it would be an incredible lead.Learn more about the book and author at Robert Dugoni's website.
The other lead is the antagonist, FSB Agent Viktor Federov. Russell Crowe would be great in the role, as would be Gerard Butler.
As for Jenkins wife, Salma Hayek would be perfect for the role.
There are many other characters, but those are the leads.
