I'm casting directly from DIsney and Nickelodeon tween shows; lots of strong female characters (really!), lots of guys who make Rodney look smooth.
The captain is going to be Maddie Fitzpatrick. Right now, she's a sixteen-year-old candy counter girl at the Tipton Hotel in Boston, but, honestly, she could run anything.
A complication of Maddie's life is that her oops-how-did-this-happen best friend is London Tipton, heir to the Tipton fortune, who is useless, except when she isn't. Somehow, she'll be along for the ride, to learn the Lesson of the Week.
I'm wonder whether or not Kim Possible should be along. She'd make a great team leader, but she might be TOO good.
Then there's Raven Baxter, who I'm not such a fan of, but she can see the future (albeit unreliably) and this might come in handy if they ever have to do blind DHD dials. Her goal in life is to become a fashion designer, but I think she could learn to aim a blaster.
Oh, and I just thought of the science officer! I was going to go with Sadie Hawthorne (from Naturally, Sadie) but my kids don't watch that anymore so I've lost her voice. Instead, I think I'll import the entire main six characters, plus little brother, from Zoe 101 - maybe I'll even have the sixteen-year-old star bring along her real-life infant! (Did that make the news outside the US?)

Yeah, this could be fun.
