Nah, the fourth nail was worked into the metal of the first minigun and given to Chuck Norris.

yes but part of the essence of micheals character is when the times comes to smite gods enemies, micheal wades in to impose god will

An approximated quote from Harry Dresden "The reason I like Micheal has nothing to do with holy swords and the smiting of evil."

I'm not so concerned with physical characteristics for Harry, but the acting has to be great.  Harry goes from cynical wise-cracker to towering, righteous rage in an instant.  He can be shy, insensitive, gentle (especially with children), analytical, and wildly emotional.  He has a host of emotional contradictions, this role requires a GREAT actor.  He has to be able to go from smart-ass to bad-ass in the blink of an eye.  Harry has lived a lot of life in his 30 or so years and it should be reflected in his demeanor, not many young actors can portray that.  I think Robert Downey can do all of this.  I would be interested in knowing why you don't think so.


I cannot tell you how much I agree with this statement. Except for the Robert Downey thing. Everything I've seen him in for the last ten years or so he seems to be playing essentially the same character. Besides, he's too old. He's almost too old to play Tony Stark.

hmm bradley cooper could b a could kincaid but you think mcgreggor is big enough to be an ass kicking armour wearing knight ?


In relation to the other post I also quoted, in regards to the actor playing Michael, I am less worried bout his physical appearance than I am about the actor pulling off the true character of Michael Carpenter.

Sasha alexander ( Kate from NCIS ) as elaine
I know she isnt blond but i see Robin Tunney as murphy, small fierce and tuff...

I agree with this, especially with Robin Tunney as Murphy. I usually don't have much of an opinion as far as the cast goes, except for the following roles:

Bradley Cooper as Kincaid - I wasn't even familiar with Bradley Cooper as an actor when I started reading the books. I always picture Kincaid exactly like him.

Ewan McGreggor as Micheal Carpenter - After seeing Ewan McGreggor's performance in Angels and Demons, I'm convinced he could be Micheal "The Fist of God" Carpenter. Especially with the line from Gravel Peril "Don't yada-yada the Lord, Harry. It's disrespectful."

Summer Glau as Karrin Murphy - I think Summer Glau is a talented actress. I know from watching Firefly and Serenity that she could handle the physicality of the role. And to me her stature and cute nose all but scream "MURPHY!"

The more I think about it, the more I want Jim to be the voice of Bob.

I'm re-reading Dead Beat right now and from the way Mab spoke of Kemmler, a lot of the signatory nations of the accords may have viewed him as a potential threat.

A picture of Harry, ragged, unshaven, bloodied and sinister looking. His staff is glowing with hellfire as he stands over the bodies of slain enemies. Underneath the text simply reads "The good guy."

A plain black t-shirt splattered with "blood" and a name tag that says "Hi, I'm An Innocent Bystander".

Isn't Nathan Fillion kind of...old to play Harry? Harry was 24 or 25 with the series began.
