Perfect Casting Part Three
Foxed:
Pace is too gentle for Harry. I could buy Thomas maybe.
The late Alan Rickman would have been an excellent Bob.
If we're shooting for Storm Front Dresden, dude who plays Rafael on Jane The Virgin would be an excellent Harry.

I'm just going to weigh in on my pick for Harry in this post, but I think James Purefoy would make a great HD. If you have seen the movie Solomon Kane you can't help but think... Hey, that is Harry Dresden.

Someone with a similar look that I think is a slightly better fit is Tom Ellis. He's doing great on Lucifer. He's a lean 6'3", and can pull off sardonic humor and whit necessary for a proper Harry Dresden.
Foxed:
Him I like. Definitely the right look for Dresden.

I have a suggestion for Harry that I haven't been able to get OUT of my head, since it got IN: What about Jake Johnson (aka Nick on New Girl)?
He's 5'10" which I realize isn't ideal, but I would count on movie magic to fix that. He's sarcastic, he's the quintessential everyman, and he's from Chicago! So long as he can play a character a bit less goofy than Nick, I think he could be gold.
New Girl is odd for me now because I just see Harry when I watch. :)
