I liked the symmetry of Leo actually turning down the role while also being a Tarantino alum.

The all female Ghostbusters stunk, mostly for being an unfunny comedy, the Thing remake didn't work because they tried to shoe-horn in a romance and the lead was like 19 years old.
Thus I present an All-Female Thing
Macready - Katee Sakoff (Oculus, Battlestar Gallactica)
Childs - Noomi Rapace (Prometheus, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo)
Blair - Sigourey Weaver (Ghostbusters, Copycat)
Garry - Helen Mirren (Caligula)
Palmer - Meg Tilly (Body Snatchers, Psycho II)
Cooper - Kathy Bates (Misery, Dolores Claiborne)
Clark - Vera Farmiga (Bates Motel)
Bennings - Jodie Foster (SIlence of the Lambs)
Nauls - Gabourey Sidobe (American Horror Story:Coven)
Norris- Lena Dunham (my nightmares)
Windows - Tessa Farmiga (American Horror Story:Murder House)
Fuchs - Sean Young (Blade Runner)

Because Childs is a hot head and it's time to move away from the "angry black man" to the "angry black woman".
I'd much rather have Starbuck vs The Girl with the Dragon Tattooo
Black iconic females from horror films is fairly scant and I choose actresses that are a.) alive b.) realistically working

Well it was color blind casting but...

Still, it's your list. I just figure these considerations are worthwhile - I know I had to do a little research for that list I made (mainly for the older characters), but that was worth it. Now I can't help but imagine that if one person could be a better Childs than Keith David, it'd be Pam Grier.

So your colour-blind casting results in you picking less non-white people than were in the original film and your idea of moving from "angry black man" to "angry black woman" leads to casting a non-black woman? As for your criteria being "alive" and "realistically working", there are still plenty of black actresses working today who could fit the bill (Samira Wiley would be my first pick). It's not like Keith David had ever been in a horror movie before The Thing either, so it's not like you can really claim that there aren't enough iconic black women in horror - it can only take one appearance to make an iconic character.
Still, it's your list. I just figure these considerations are worthwhile - I know I had to do a little research for that list I made (mainly for the older characters), but that was worth it. Now I can't help but imagine that if one person could be a better Childs than Keith David, it'd be Pam Grier.

Pam Grier is 67 years old, way to old to play a physical rival of Macready.

Uhuh....question when you say "non-white" you really mean black correct. That's why you decided to strip two of the biracial actresses I cast of their ethnicity. When I put together my list I focused on quality actresses which is why seven of them have Oscar nominations. Now could I have picked some random actress from a Netflix series...sure but that would sell out my ideals of taking actresses who've done fantastic work in the horror genre and putting them together for one.
Pam Grier is 67 years old, way to old to play a physical rival of Macready.

Also, no kidding that Pam Grier is too old to play Childs now. I thought this was clear from a) the fact that my list was a 1982 one and b) the fact that I suggested the considerably younger Samira Wiley for the part instead.
