Yeha if Quinto was taller I would definitely go with him!  He was good as Sylar and Spock!

Quinto would be my second choice, Lee Pace is my first.

But if you've never seen Pushing Daisies you wouldn't understand.

Ha ha! I didn't realize there was a thread about this! Awesome that so many ppl think like me - Nathan Fillion ALL THE WAY!!! He's already proven he can pull off a brilliant Wise Ass to Cop ratio in Castle.

I aim to misbehave. Zachary Quinto would be my second choice.

And no, no, and HELL BLOODY NO to Hugh Jackman. Just no. Nononononono. That would be the Dresden Files of my nightmares. I love Gerard Butler but imo he would be a bad choice, I have never seen him pull of wiseass. Same thing for Clive Owen, I just can't see him in it.

I can see Jackman doing a part as one of the Denarians (NOT Nicodemus.) Thing is he might not be willing to take less than a lead role in the films.

As for who should have the honor and pleasure of playing TDF's Denarian boss? John Glover. Hands down, he has the style, smooth voice, and soulless, calm, calculating look down pat.

WOAH! John Glover is a good Nicodemus. He might make a good liver-spots too (my first choice for Nicodemus will always be Gary Oldman.)

He probably would, except that I'm going to have difficulty immersing myself in the fact that he's a cold, calculating, heartless bastard who wants to remake Humanity's perceptions of him after most of the burn notice episodes. That character kind of sticks like a needle on a phonograph in my mind.

Lol, thats awesome.  If it helps you can watch the old pretender episodes where he is the evil pretender/psychotic serial killer.  He can definitely do the veneer of polite while behind his eyes he is figuring out how to best crush your sanity...   Ah, the classics. :)

Gary Oldman was my first choice also, based off of Zorg from Fifth Element, Dracula, and Serius Black.

Robert Kneeper was a distant second for lack of better choices that fit the look i have in my head.

John Glover does however have the look that I picture, so I could definitely agree with that choice too.

As for Murphey, over time I am beggining to think that maybe Kristen Bell could pull it off.


When I had made my orignal cast some years ago, I did not pick her because at the time I didn't think she could pull off the tough chick, but now I think maybe she could, not for any particular role she has done recently but she definitely has the cute petite blond look that I picture for Murphey.
