Nicolas Cage should play Harry Dresden.

I might die. And not from happiness.

Dresden: "Don't call me a dinosaur. It isn't fair to the dinosaurs. What did a dinosaur ever do to you?"

Dresden: "Hell's holy stars and freaking stones shit bells."

Mark Sheppard for Nicodemus. I have Christian Kane listed as Kincaid.

I like Mark Sheppard.  Mark Sheppard is awesome.  Sir Anthony Hopkins can pull off the maniacal evil gentleman better, though.

You mean as Cassius after he loses the coin?

Plus, Mark Sheppard is excellent as evil smarmy demonic... demon.

And this is just as King of The Crossroads, baby! Just imagine him as a roughly-two-thousand year old fallen angel!

Heck, Mark Sheppard's been in just about every single fantasy/SF/paranormal TV show in the past 5 years, so he'd HAVE to have a chair for this one. :D

Of course.  He needs a role.  But I see Anthony Hopkins as more of a Nicodemus than Mark Sheppard.

Robert Knepper would be a good Nicodemus, even though he is over the age Nic is suppose to look like.

I think Josh Brolin would make a better Nicodemus personally.
