Perfect Casting, part 2

I always pictured her as older, but... Lea?

[Quantus]

Id definately say Lea need to be a little older.  But she could do a Raith pretty well

[MagusLucius]

Well while we are on the subject of actors who hide their accent well, Gary Oldman is a perfect example. For years He was working in Hollywood and I had no Idea he was british. Andrew Lincoln, Plays Rick Grimes on the "Walking Dead". And Just about Every man from the south in "True Blood" Also Britts. the only Guy who is actually from Louisiana in that show Is Eric, ( the vampire viking)
(sorry, tired and not googling all their names)

   Speaking of Oldman, Throw a dart and hit a villian he can do it, But I would love to see him play the good father Forthill

I've actually been thinking Ian Holm for Forthill.  He's played a priest twice before, that I know of; Once in The Fifth Element, where he played Fr. Vito Cornelius (a rather comical role, to be sure) and the other time was when he played the Wheelchair-bound Jesuit Priest in Bless the Child.

Maybe Lash? Her or Scarlett Johansson.

Both Gary Oldman and Ian Hold would do great in the role, to be sure.  However, for some strange reason though I keep thinking an aged Mel Gibson would fit it nicely...

I can't really see Gary Oldman playing the soft-spoken Forthill

So far, my list is:
Michael: Neil McDonough
Forthill: Ian Holm
Mab/Titania: Michelle Pfeiffer
Rashid: Erick Avari
Arthur Langtree: Donald Sutherland
Listens to Wind: Graham Greene
Martha Liberty: C.C.H Pounder
Nicodemus: Gary Oldman
Odin/Vadderung/Kringle: Anthony Hopkins
Bob: Steve Buscemi

I had originally thought of Anthony Hopkins as John Marcone, but I think he's a little old for the gymnastics that Marcone gets up to.   I always saw Michael Ironside as Donald Morgan.  And while I hear James Earl Jones when I read the Erlking, I'm not sure I see him as the character.

Other actors I would love to find a part for (And I realize that you have to find an actor that fits the role, not vise-versa)
Jeremy Irons
Mark A. Sheppard

[Quantus]

Odin/Vadderung/Kringle: Anthony Hopkins

Not typecasting him a little too much?   

[THE_ANGRY_GAMER]

Jeremy Irons = Erlking? Nicodemus? We need to find someone creepy for him to play.

[Quantus]

He could do Grevaine or Cassius perfectly though...

He looking a little older than I what I imagine for both Nic and the Erlking.  And the Erlking is supposed to be noticeably asymmetrical in his features. 

[KoshN]

....american idol.

How I HATE those two words!  Conjures up memories of that worthless, piece-of-crap show, one of the main cancers of TV.

I didn't like him as Dracula, at all.

[KoshN]

He could do it, but I think he might do well as a villain. Maybe Justin.

I wouldn't want to see David Tennant as a bad guy.

Then don't watch the Harry Potter movies...

Dresden's my bag, not Potter.  Potter's for kids.

How about Joanne Kelly as Lara Raith?

I would go with Jaime Murray from Warehouse 13 before Joanne Kelly. Joanne Kelly was already cast for Bianca in the series, however.
