and you have all got to remeber, johnny depp is the most choicey of actors on earth!!, seriously, turned down titaninc, speed and a bunch of huge movies, he only does it if he likes the character and can seriously explore it

Which, as Kincaid, he'd probably go a little nuts with :D
theSandman:
some thoughts:
Karrin - Katee Sackhoff (if you've only seen her in BSG you may not agree, watch her Bionic Woman spots or The Sentinel).
Eb McCoy - Brendan Gleeson (28 Days Later, Harry Potter films)
Morgan - Mel Gibson (Braveheart, We Were Soldiers)
Luccio 2.0 - Jessica Biel (Texas Chainsaw Massacre, London)
Michael - Josh Holloway (Lost) or Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings, A History of Violence)
Butters - Simon Pegg (Star Trek, Shaun of the Dead) or Butters from South Park, you decide.
Marcone - Bill Duke (I know he does not fit the physical description at ALL, but something about the way James Marsters reads Marcone, makes me picture a soft-talking Bill Duke).
Erlking or maybe Kincaid - Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood, Generation Kill)
Sadly, I can think of no actor qualified to play Harry in all respects, so here's a list of some that work for different reasons: James Marsters. No way can he hit the height mark at 5'9", but he kills the soul and voice of Harry. Joe Flanigan from Stargate: Atlantis may have some of the looks/attitude down, but probably not the acting chops or the light-hearted side of Harry.

Listens to Wind-Wes Studi
Karrin Murphy-Kathryn Morris
Valkyrie Gard-Ali Larter
Cujo Hendricks-?
Molly Carpenter-Laura Vandervoort
Sanya-Michael Clarke Duncan
--- End quote ---
Probably it's just me, I was think of somebody along like these:
Listen to Wind-Graham Greene (he may be too old now but since this thread is about "perfect casting" so)
Karrin Murphy-Yvonne Strahovski (she may be too pretty to be Murphy but hell she can kick butt)
Valkyrie Gard-Kristanna Loken
Molly Carpenter-Jordan Hinson
Sanya-Djimon Hounsou (minus the Russian accent)
Cujo Hendricks-Brock Lesner
John 1:17:
Hendricks ?

Wow, that is a frightening man.

... or Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings, A History of Violence)
--- End quote ---
*gasp* I can't believe I never even thought of Viggo as Michael! He's soft-spoken, and violent when need be, and the whole way through LoTR, he kept giving off this aura of calm... that sounds pretty much like Michael to me! I vote Viggo for Michael Carpenter! Good call, Sandman :)
Of course, with this image, he could nail the role of John Marcone, too...

I have never seen Stargate: Atlantis, so I don't really know who Joe Flanigan is... And I heard somewhere that JB originally wanted to have JM audition for Harry on the Syfy show, but James wouldn't leave his kids. (Which is both awwww! :) and Awwwww! :( ) And yeah, his height was definitely an issue, lol. I've heard about ten different accounts, saying he's anywhere from 5'7.5" to 5'11". However, James' hair is naturally afro-ish (you should see pics of him from his high school days -- so funny), so I think that leads to a lot of improper conclusions about his height. He would have had to wear lifts or something to achieve the right height.
This is actually a picture of him with his hair straight (?!)
