As for hair, Statham can grow hair, it just doesn't look good on him.
because instead of a forehead he has like and eighthead.
But again, does Kincaid really have long blond hair? I don't remember that. Does anyone have the exerpt where the describe Kincaid's physical description?
tiny[but]fierce:
I think Ray Wise would be a very good John Marcone. Take a look:
He's kinda got that grandfatherly-soccer-coach-possible-mob-boss look to him. This picture of him is actually taken from a screen cap in the Season 2 episode of Bones, The Titan on The Track. He played a crooked PI that killed a senator or something.
There's a bit of a striking resemblance between him and the graphic novel drawing of Marcone in the comic version of Storm Front. And there's the fact that he was born in Akron, Ohio.
Not that it really means anything to anyone other than me :) (Ohio born and bred here -- I get excited when I find actors and actresses that are from my home state.)

Page 107 of the Paperback edition of Death Masks:
A man stood on my doorstep. He was nearly as tall as me but looked a lot more solid, with shoulders wide enough to make the loose black jacket he wore fit tightly on his upper arms. He wore a navy blue shirt and stood so that I could see the wrinkles caused by the straps of a shoulder rig. A black ball cap reined in dark golden hair that might have fallen to his shoulders. He hadn't shaved in a few days, and had a short, white scar below his mouth that highlighted the cleft in his chin. His eyes were grey-blue and empty of any expression in a way I had seldom seen.
For some reason, I am now picturing Josh Holloway, who played Sawyer on Lost.

--- Quote ---I personally think it's more important that they have the attitude of the character (OF COURSE, what they look like is seriously important too), but am just saying. xD

I don't disagree, but for me, the look is more important. I don't care if an Oscar-winning actor gets cast as a Dresden character and has the attitude - if they look nothing like the physical description of that character, that would be a fail for me.

from Death Masks:
He was nearly as tall as me but looked a lot more solid....A black ball cap reined in dark golden hair that might have fallen to his shoulders.
Kincaid walked in, in the same outfit I'd seen that morning, but without the baseball cap. His dark blond hair was instead pulled back into an unruly tail.
from Blood Rites:
He was a big guy, almost my own height, with dark golden hair just long enough to look a little exotic.
The lean mercenary was dressed in greys and dull blues, very nondescript, and had his hair pulled into a ponytail under a black baseball cap.
--- Quote ---As far as ASkars trumping Statham...AGREED! Eric Northman character is probably my favorite True Blood character, I can't wait til that comes back on. But I picked Statham because I picture Kincaid more rugged, and ASkars is too pretty for the Kincaid in my head, he did play a Meekus (green shirt) in Zoolander after all.

But ASkars also played Iceman in Generation Kill:
And actually, Rudy Reyes from Generation Kill would make a pretty good Ramirez!
Steve Buscemi or Paul Reubens as Butters - how old is Butters supposed to be anyway? Because those suggestions seem too old to me.
As far as how old Molly is when she becomes a major character, I am pretty sure that Molly is supposed to look older than her actual age. So to me, casting someone who looks really young like Dakota Fanning, does not work for me. Not to mention, I have a big problem with her skinny built for Molly.
Vash the white:
decently old, because he feels wrong about having a thing for molly in wn
