Perfect Casting Part Three

[newjak86]

Never watched a lot of Farscape so I will take your word for it. I've never actually picked out an actor I would like to see play Nicodemus.

Is Alexander Skarsgard the same as Stellan Skarsgard?  Not sure.

Alexander Skarsgard is the son of Stellan Skarsgard, almost the same but not quite haha.

I really liked the guy that played Harry in the tv show, Paul Blackthorne, and wouldn't mind seeing him come back, and I have to agree with the people that picked Eric Roberts for Marcone......his gangster character in Dark Knight practically was Marcone.  I think Elizabeth Hurley would make a good sidhe woman, either as Lea or Mab.

[Rasins]

After seeing him in ST, I kinda like Benedict Cumberbach as Nichodemus.

Okay, I've got a possible Andi. Everybody say hello to Melanie Leishman from Todd and the book of Pure Evil.

[rudobrody]

if she was cast for Andi, then I think Andi needs a bigger role in the series   or dye her hair and she could be Molly

[the ghost lives]

Not that it would work anymore given his age now, but I've always pictured Nicodemus as Rik Mayall from when he portayed King Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar. Just switch the white coat for a black one.

And no to those in this thread and the one that linked me here who brought up the idea, you do not want a porn star playing Laura. You want an attractive woman who can act sensual and can act. The latter rules the porn stars out.

Nicodemus could be played by Simon Merrells who portrayed
Marcus Crassus in Spartacus: War of the Damned.

I picture Andi as a little (ahem) "thicker"--but my preference runs that way anyway...

[hank the ancient]

I've seen some of her work. The main reason I'm suggesting her is that she can pull of the nerdy college kid Andi starts out as, on top of "way to go butters" Andi. That's a pretty wide range of character progression, all things considered.

OK.  And I visualize Andi as quite a bit (ahem) "thicker".  Or, as Bob puts it, "And they have BOOBS!!!"

I present to you - Donald Morgan:

I did not actually expect Brendan Gleeson to look so perfect to my mental image on Morgan, but there it is!

Others:
Warden "Steed" Chandler: Benedict Cumberbatch (yes, I know it's sever under-using, but heck we're dreaming, right!)
Merlin Arthur Langtry: Jason Isaacs (add some age-wrinkles to the face, and remember to add the long flowing hair and beard)
Karrin Murphy: Amy Sedaris (at least in hight and looks; I really don't know her capacity for tough/fierce though)
Susan Rodriguez: Halle Berry or possibly Zoe Saldana

My choice for Dresden:

I was watching Almost Human on Fox. The level of snark this man can fit into one hour of television is amazing.

It's been said before. but he doesn't strike me as geeky snark. maybe i'm being prejudice. maybe he can pull of a geeky vibe. but I don't think I'd buy it from him.

Eh, to each his own. He's kind of a nerd in real life too which is part of the reason I picked him.

Does anyone have good picks for Murphy? The two actresses I think could play her are Scarlett Johansson and Maggie Grace.

Scarlett is my first choice because she has the perfect look IMO. She's short, blonde, and attractive. She can also play kick-ass characters like Black Widow in the Avengers.
Maggie Grace was my second choice because she might be too tall (5'. I can picture her as Murphy though and she can play well off snark like she did in the movie Lockout with Guy Pearce.

[Quantus]

My pick is charlize theron for murphy.  Though she played unhinged well enough in that snow white flick Id say she's a redhead dye job away from being a good Lea as well.
