The more I think about it, the more I realize that he'd make a great Dresden. Besides, I barely watched the Sci-Fi show. (I refuse to call it SyFy)

I only call it SyFy when it does stupid stuff that I dont want to associate with a good name.

Try as I might I cant think of a good Hendrix, anyone have ideas?

Ving Rhames. Rawlings or Stallings? I think he made those rhyme on purpose. Though he is maybe a little more buff then either in the book I can see him as a cop that dont take shit whos been demoted twice or as someone with the guts to call Murphy nicknames...

Ray Stevenson, yes dye that hair red and give him a tall blonde to play Viking quest with.

I guess I'll have to ask the Ladies on this one.  Is this guess handsome enough to be Thomas?  Because he was awesome in Hellboy, and I'd love to see him in there somewhere.  I could see him being Thomas...(although he's really my frisrt choice to play Drizz't Do'urden in a Drizzt movie....but thats another story)

hmmm... young actor who, at least, favors a younger Bruce ... tall, dark-haired & dark-eyed.  Joe Manganiello?  He's either 6'5" or 6' 6".

Well, since very few if anyone seem to like/care about Molly, here's my latest favorite.

Spencer Locke
Currently 19
Height 5'7"
Too old for the first book with Molly, but only by a few years.  Hollywood could make her look younger, and then she could 'grow' at a faster pace for the series, since 1 dresden year won't equal one real year.

Dianna Agron got a new haircut, and since I think she's just adorable, I'm tossing her in the casting mix.

Dianna Agron (Glee, FOX) for Murphy or Maeve
Currently 25
Height 5'6"
Probably too tall for Karrin Murphy, but still a good age to start her at, unless JB really wants her to be older. 
She might also be eligible for Maeve, but I always imagined that role to be a little more... voluptuous.




If she WERE going to be Maeve, I think she should do Aurora as well, since they were described nearly as polar opposite twins.  And that would influence my opinion on Mab as well.  I see something similar between her and Stana Katic (Castle, ABC).

Stana Katic for Mab
Currently 33
Height 5'9"
Only 8 years separate Stana and Dianna, but I think that could be handled between make-up and the slow aging of Fae.  Make Dianna look a little younger, and Stana look a little older (so she looks the same as the series progresses).
