Actually, I think they would probably have the PC with the "default" party for the most part (Minsc, Jaheira, Imoen, and in BG1 Khalid and Dynaheir). The other NPCs would just show up along the way, having small parts. ToB NPC would probably be added, just due to the plot, as would Yoshimo (also for plot reasons). Otherwise, the others would just have cameos (probably joining just to handle their "individual quest" and then go their merry way).
If they establish the fact that bardic colleges are a primary source of knowledge in the Realms, the PC could be a bard. This would combine the knowledge aspect with the "rapscallion" aspect that is popular in cinema.
