It was just a matter of time before Prince William and Kate Middleton’s storybook romance was given the movie treatment. Lifetime has already begun production on a royal wedding film, titled Will and Kate, that is reportedly airing the week before the couple recite their vows on April 29 at Westminster Abbey. Newcomer Nico Evers-Swindell, who has appeared in bit parts on shows like NCIS: Los Angeles and Law & Order, has been cast as Prince William, and Star Trek’s Ben Cross will play Prince Charles. See our picks for the women who could fill Luddington's shoes in a pinch.
