Youre not wrong, but then Hugh Jackman was WAAAY too tall to play Wolverine and he did a fine job. Massive height differences work fine in print, but when you actually have to start framing a shot around one character that is staring at the navel of the other it gets problematic. As long as Harry is at least a few inches taller than Murphy Im happpy, it doesnt actually have to be a 5'0" to 6'5", or whatever their extreme heights are

OK--I remember this popular "dad/hero" type actor that I've always pictured in Michael's role, but can't remember his name or what shows he played it! ARRRR--curse us and crusssh us! Been buggin' me since I first met MC. He had dark brown, almost black hair, some gray. Usually in a quasi-"Beatles" type haircut, thick mustache, gentle demeanor, usually soft-spoken. Frequently played a small-town sheriff or cop, usually single parent with a kid or two. Wore flannel work shirts when not wearing cop uniforms.
Can anybody tell me who this is? He's best fit for Michael Carpenter.

Sam Elliott?
Quantus:
If that's him now Id say he's too old for Michael, but would work for several of the older wizards (McCoy, maybe Langrty or Lafortier)
PilgrimDan:
Sam Elliott would be terrific as Eb. Either him or Tommy Lee Jones.
