Off hand I can't think of any movies where each act has an entirely different cast (unless you count Sheldon).

I think the biggest issue might be it's perceived lack of originality since many of it's themes have been copied....

Corisant = Trantor, etc....

OK... Let me rephrase... I can't see how you could make a film (or films) that is/are faithful to the series and wouldn't confuse the hell out of the majority of the movie going public.
