Still just a fictional movie theory from me... Call me crazy you guys...

So after I made the Picture of Sisi of how I imagine her in a movie, I was wondering about the rest of the main cast.
If you know a little about her, you must be aware of the fact that she was the wife of Francis Joseph, Emperor of Austira and King of Hungary and she was also a good friend of Count Gyula Andrassy.
Some say that they even had an affair, because the Emperor had affairs too and they rarely had... well, sexual life (in fact, historical books say they were together intimately only when they wanted a child, so... for about four times, throughout all those years).
I don't want to take part in that debate, I respect everyone's opinion about that. Only, I would like to express my own idea and thoughts about this fact (I mean the Sisi-Andrassy relationship).
And in the end, I will explain the background of this picture.

I do not believe that Sisi and Count Andrassy had ever had an affair, possibly because - as historians say - she had no desire to be with a man "in that way". The reason is simple (no, not that because secretly she was a lesbian...), it is because the first time her husband approached her, she was just an innocent girl and the Emperor was already experienced in a way. She had bad memories about her wedding night, because her husband was not particulary that tender lover what you usually expect for the first time. So all those bad memories and bad experiences in her intimate life with her husband made her sort of dislike physical love.
However, I say however - and I had this idea because I read a fictional diary of Sisi - I do believe that Sisi and Count Andrassy had some kind of a chemistry and desire, and they possibly had an affection and a love of a kind towards each other, but it never came to pass.

So, about the picture what you can see now...
You already know my ideas about my casting choice for the role of Sisi, so I'm not going to repeat myself about that.
I chose JJ Feild for the role of Emperor Francis Joseph (and yeah, I gave him that characteristic beard ), because he's that nice looking man - even with that beard - and we should not forget, that in that era, the Emperor was considered to be a good-looking man. He's also a good actor, so I think he would be perfect for this.
For Count Andrassy, I wanted someone really and extmely handsome and I told that to my BFF also I mean I wanted someone good-looking for the Emperor too, but for the Count, someone even better (my BFF said that the final result is only my choice, hers would not be like this, so... ). Someone, who has great charisma and has talent beyond measure. So I chose Richard Armitage... Is that a surprise from me? Yeah, I didn't think so...
No but srsly you guys, there has to be a chemistry on both sides, if you know what I mean. Sisi has to be able to work well with Francis Joseph and also with Count Andrassy so... that's why I chose these actors.

Also, I would name my [imaginary] movie 'The Empress'. Just like that. Because it's simple.
And I would use the famous words from that era in the trailer: "Others just fight their wars, the happy Austria is getting married."
(Because when Sisi and Francis Joseph was about to get married, the mood in Europe was full of the threatening of a war and Austria should have taken part of it, but instead of that, the young Emperor got married. So that's why they said at that time, that 'Others just fight and you, happy Austria, get married.')

I could go on and on about this, but then I would end up writing a thesis... Srsly guys... someone should tell me to shut up...

Anyway... If you have a few time, I would LOVE to read other opinions about an imaginary movie casting. Or anything in that matter...
