Perfect Casting Part Three

<< < (143/184) > >>

Ananda:
I was watching a The Cure concert from 2016 this weekend and Robert Smith looked perfect for the Mother Winter role. :). Sorry, Robert, I love your old music, but you're perfect for the role.

What about David Walton for Harry?  He's got good height at 6'4".

Quantus:
I thinks Ive settled on Michael Fassbender as older Harry (with Matt Bomer as Thomas) and Eric Balfour for a more SF age Harry with Reeve Carney playing Thomas.  Reeve was Dorian Grey on Penny Dreadful if you've seen it, and I think he'd fit the various tones of Thomas nicely as looking like he might be the much prettier brother of Balfour.

KipIngram:
Oh dear - this has been a topic my wife and I have discussed endlessly.  We've never hit on anyone we consider fully satisfactory for Harry himself.  I guess my "favorite" castings are:

Katee Sackhoff - Murphy
Isaak Sirko - Marcone
Liam Neeson - Michael (I literally hear his voice when reading Michael lines)

When I read some of the descriptions of Lara in action, I find myself imagining Angelina Jolie in Lara Croft mode; there's more similarity there than just the name.

The wife and I have discussed many, many castings for various characters, but those three I itemized above are the ones that really resonate for me.  Most of the others I'm able to envision numerous performers taking on.

Speaking of this general topic, I read not long ago that all the big movie studios are hungry for "franchises" - it's the new big thing.  Well, what the heck?  Here's the perfect franchise, all laid out and ready to go, right under their noses.  Come on, Hollywood!

Foxed:
Sackhoff has a good 6" on Murphy.

Jaime Camil as the male Eeb.
