Hmm. I've never thought of Chris as Angel. It's an interesting idea. I was actually thinking that of all the major roles in the show, Angel would be the only one I would consider Justin appropriate for.
I've heard through the grapevine that Justin has his eye on Roger. I'm sure he doesn't want to do a reprise of Joey's role (Mark) and I can't see him taking a big enough risk to do Angel justice. I think Chris's countertenor falsetto and teeny size would make him perfect for Angel though.
I would kill to see Clay Aiken as Roger. He's already got the grungy spiky-haired hipster emo thing down, and his voice is very very similar in tone, timbre, range and quality to Adam Pascal's, excepting that Clay doesn't have all of Adam's pitch problems. Seriously, listen to Clay's version of "Solitaire" and tell me he wouldn't kill on "One Song Glory."
There is no universe in which Justin Timberlake has the vocal skills to play Roger. It would make me very, very sad if that were to happen. If I had my fondest wish come true, they'd cast Ewan McGregor. But that probably won't happen.
As for Clay, I can't say. I've never really heard him. My distaste for American Idol has prevented me from giving anyone on it a fair listen.

I understand. I have a feeling Clay would too. After all, Clay's distaste for the franchise (which seems to hate him right back, even though he's their only actual star) compelled him to fire the whole lot of them the very *day* his contract with them expired this month. All that aside, he's the finest pop tenor out there right now. I'd be happy to send over the MP3 of "Solitaire." It's nothing short of extraordinary.
