I think he should be inbetween 12 and 15.

me too, but I disagree that he should be british: for example, Ben Barnes is british, and he spoke with a spanish accent. Also Peter Dinklage (Trumpkin) is american, and he spoke with a british accent. So... you see, lots of people can develop really good accents.
BTW, this may seem kinda stupid, but I'm still fresh bread, and I would like to know how to put up an avatar, and sig.

Good point, Narnian King.
I just hope that they cast him right - C.S. Lewis seemed to give him a distinct character and image. And unlike alot of characters in the books, I can see him pretty clearly in my mind when I read VoD.
But PC movie was awesome, and I could barely imagine Barnes being Caspian in PC. So I am sure everything will turn out for the better.
As for the age thing, I thought Eustace was about 10 or 11 in VoD, wasn't he? So shouldn't the actor be about 10-14-ish? (as I think some people on here have mentioned before)
Narnian King - not stupid at all, just a week or so ago, I was wondering the same thing! I am not sure exactly how or why, but when your name isn't Orange any more - then you can post an avatar and sig.

i thought about auditioning, i am 13 right now but i am not very tall, so i could probobly pass as a 11 or 12 year old, i am not British, but i can fake an alright accent.

I don't want to discourage anyone from auditioning, but I do think that British is one of the harder accents to get right. Fake ones sound way too fake to me. But by all means, go and live in England if you think you can learn it.
I really, really hope they don't go 16 or older with Eustace. That's just pushing it... but then again, Ben Barnes was pushing it. 12 or 13 seems about right to me, since that will be Georgie's age, won't it?

I don't think they will. I mean Eustace was supposed to be really immature and Around Lucy's age. And he was really a pest.

They cast their Eustace! He's going to be played by Will Poulter. I'm a little jealous, but I think he'll get it done.

Yes, here is a link for anyone who wants to read about Will Poulter as Eustace...(or see his picture)

He looks like a brat to me...so I think he will do well, haha

he looks young...so I think they are staying true to the age of Eustace in the book!
The website says that Will Poulter is 14, but if you notice, Skandar, William, and Anna are all older than the characters they play. It's all about hair, makeup, and costumes that pull off how old they look!
