In that case, can Chris Pine play Thomas? ;D
Seriphina:
Chris is too beefy.

I disagree. The first thing I think of when I word-associate Harry's descriptions of Butters is "the little ME." Then again, just about everyone is little to Harry, including "the little ectomancer" Mort.
As for the actor, no clue. I still go for Moist - Simon Helberg. I don't know if he can do the "scream like a girl" (I haven't seen very much of his work) but he's got the Judaism and the dark hair... and he's five-foot-seven.

Well, like you said everyone is little in Harry's eyes. But for me that part of Butters description had more to do with him being scrawny and weak looking rather than simple height, but that could just be me.

Oh, yes, he's done the girly scream and other various cowardly bits in his time on Big Bang Theory (I take it you havent seen the show, so dear lord watch it, it's Great!) But thats part of my problem with him is I dont want to be getting Butter and Wolowitz mixed up, the characters are a little too similar. For that same reason Im against the idea of Sarah Michelle Geller for Murphy, because it wouldn't be Murphy, it would be Buffy and her new wizard friend.

I've seen 4 or 5 episodes of Big Bang Theory, all on airplanes. Liked them all, and it's also where I found my (physically) perfect casting for Murphy. I'll get on it with the watching.
I see where you're coming from with the idea that he's already played too similar a part. I guess my want to see him as Butters is stronger than the worry I'll mix 'em up, personally!
