Perfect Casting, part 2

[cass]

...But who is he?

[MoSeS]

I haven't worked out perfect casting for all parts, but I've thought of Jordana Spiro as Murphy ever since I started reading The Dresden Files.

Similarly, I've thought for a while that Alana de la Garza would make a great Susan.

Is it a cliché to say that the descriptions of Thomas made me think of this guy?
Tom Welling
Hmm. Dunno what I'm still doing wrong with the links.

First thing is your linking to a whole web page, not a link to an image. You can insert the link but not as images.

Second I don't think you can link to an image on imdb, they probably don't want hotlinking to increase their traffic.

Use google and search images. Then use those to insert image.



Here are 3 images of the above mentioned actors.

[MoSeS]

Thanks for the help, lets see if this works.  I hope the image isn't to big.  Is there anyway to shrink the size with the image tags?  I also wouldn't want to take up too much space on this website.
My pick for Thomas.  He's 28, and he already has the grey eyes.

yes you can resize it. just choose your width and height like this.

[img width=60 height=40]{url}[/url]

I think it will always size it down to width of 600 or height of 400 if it's larger, and it will size it proportionally.

Thanks,
Please be patient with my while I try this out...



Okay, a couple of trys and its working now.  YEA to the "Modify" function!!!
It didn't work when I left the image tag snipet in the Quote line, though.  Odd that.

...But who is he?

Oh, sorry, guess that would help.
He's Lee Mead.  He's a British Actor and Singer.

Here he is being all angsty in white.  It's from a Dutch TV show.

The song is Close Every Door from the musical Joseph, but if you ignore that
and a couple of the lyrics, it sort of fits.  Plus the weird set looks like some sort of magical prison
set up in the Never Never. 

[MoSeS]

Lee Mead, has a good look, but I am not familiar with his acting. But everyone has to start somewhere I guess.

He kind of reminds of the guy from Entourage though, Adrian Grenier, it's the hair I think.

And before you think it, no I don't think Adrian Grenier could pull off the right Thomas attitude.

[Scop]

It's always about the hair

@ Atanvarno

Tom Welling as Thomas, I'd back that. He has the strong silent type thing going on.

I have only seen a few episodes of Smallville, but I always wanted to watch the whole thing, I just never had the time to catch up on it.

[Atanvarno]

I don't suppose you've missed much by not catching all of Smallville; I watched the first season, and the writing varied from uninspired to unfortunate. It's hard to tell if Welling's up to much as an actor, since the Clark Kent character is such a dip. I want to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, but...

But he certainly is, er, Bowflex-y. And gray-eyed. So there's that.

[Scop]

Tom Welling's not a bad choice, but he's not exactly waife thin these days with that Superman inverted A frame going on.

[MoSeS]

For some reason though when they first introduced Thomas I had this image in my head.

It's a character from the Witchblade comics.

And I have never read or seen any of the Dresden Files graphic novels so I don't know what any of the characters in that look like.

[Scop]

I can defiately groc with the long flowing hair

[Tribblechomper]

Sorry rose but have to disagree with most of these for a movie (but I can't disagree with how you see them in your head ~_~)

I'll explain.

Karl Urban as Kincaid- no explanation here, I just don't see him as Kincaid.
Justin Hartley as Thomas- I don't know who he is.
Viggo as Michael - Good choice, Sean Bean would be another
Meg Ryan (48) as Murphy -  I loved Meg Ryan when I was growing up. Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathy Ireland, etc. These were my generation of celebrity females. But Meg is little old now to be Murphy. And Meg didn't age well either.
Meryl Streep (60) as Charity - too old, and can you picture Meryl as the wife of Viggo.....uhhhh no.
Kate Bosworth as Molly - Kate is pretty, I am not too sure about her as Molly though.
Catherine Zeta Jones (40) as Susan - a little older than I would picture Susan, Jones would make a good Arianna Ortega


Keep in mind is easier to make someone look older than it is to make someone look younger.

"Karl Urban as Kincaid- no explanation here, I just don't see him as Kincaid."

OK...before Urban got the role of Dr. McCoy, he had another thing in common with the late DeForest Kelley; both were routinely typecast as bad guys.

Urban as Kincaid, maybe...Warden Morgan, definitely

All I can think of is Pathfinder and Chronicles of Riddick. And unfortunately both of those were not great movies. I am not saying it's Urban's fault, just unfortunate that he was in both of those.

I still say:

Thomas Raith: Matt Bomer

Karrin Murphy: Victoria Pratt (I think she fits)
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm399217152/nm0695560

And maybe for Butters this guy:
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2959381504/nm0862328

He's on the show Bones. Plays a good nerdy type forensics guy.
He fits the profile I think for Butters.

Just another of my two cents.
