This is a list of characters, real and fictional, in the 1998 HBO docudrama TV miniseries ''From the Earth to the Moon''. ==Fictional and/or connective characters== *Tom Hanks appears as host of the first 11 episodes, introducing each from in front of a huge relief sculpture of the Greek god Apollo. This format is not used for the final episode, "Le Voyage dans la Lune", in which Hanks appears in character as Jean-Luc Despont, assistant to French filmmaker Georges Méliès. *Lane Smith portrays Emmett Seaborn, a fictional news reporter for a fictitious television network. Seaborn appears in the first 8 episodes, covering America's space program from the earliest days through the flight of Apollo 13. He also appears in the final episode, reporting on the final Apollo 17 lunar mission, and is himself an interview subject in a mock documentary. The fictional character was added to provide a sense of continuity to the series, often serving as a Greek chorus. Seaborn's personality is similar in some respects to Walter Cronkite, though the real Cronkite is mentioned at times and seen in archive footage. The use of a fictional character also allows for dramatic conflict to be created more easily in episode 8, "We Interrupt This Program," with another fictional reporter Brett Hutchings (Jay Mohr). *Clint Howard as fictional flight controller Paul Lucas in episode 5, "Spider". *Jay Mohr as Brett Hutchings, a fictional young television reporter who competes for Emmett Seaborn's job in episode 8. *John Michael Higgins as the host of a fashion show featuring the nine wives of NASA Astronaut Group 2 in episode 11, "The Original Wives' Club". *Blythe Danner provides voice-over narration for much of the final episode, which is presented in a documentary format. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of From the Earth to the Moon characters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
