Fan Casting HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE (live action remake)

Based on the book and the Studio Ghibli film, this story takes place during World War II and tells about a young woman named Sophie who runs her late father's hat shop, even though her mother and older sisters want her to get out there in the big bad world and at least find a man. While taking a walk through the city, she meets a handsome young man named Howl, who reveals that he's a wizard and he demonstrates it by letting her fly with him. Later that night, her shop is intruded by a bulbous and pompous woman called the Witch of the Waste. She misinterpreted that Sophie is Howl's new lover, and she punishes her by transforming her into an old lady, and worse, she can't tell anyone how it happened. After escaping from her home, Sophie stumbles upon a mechanized mansion that moves on robotic legs, and she squats (as in, getting inside unannounced). The house is run by steam and the fire comes from a fire demon named Calcifer. When Howl and his young assistant, Daniel, meet her, "Grandma Sophie" claims she's their new cleaning lady, and they really need one because the house is a mess. She really just needs to find the Witch. And it gets complicated as a secret society of witches and wizards are readying themselves for the brutal elements of war.
