Isn't Dresden supposed to be very tall, with an angular face? . . . And no buzz cut hair, or whatever the current style is.Yeah, you know you just described Nathan Fillion after dismissing him out of hand, right?
Not sure who the two Brits areI'm... very sad for you.
Out of the options posted only Zachary Quinto has the right facial features of angles and planes.I'm somewhat in the Fillion camp, but I will say right off that it's not about his features at all. Though I still think his features could work for Harry, it's about other things, like his half-smirk. Every time I read something about Harry snorting and delivering a smart-ass line to a bad guy, I imagine that smirk, and the tone of voice that goes with it. Other little things to do with tone or delivery, too. Like for example, when Harry wakes up from being knocked out and says, "The kid knows what she's talking about. ... What are we talking about?" I hear Nathan Fillion, in the same tone as his "What happened about me?" line from Firefly. When Harry gets really brutal, efficient, and dangerous, I see the look on Fillion/Mal's face when he put a bullet in someone who was threatening a young woman, or slapped a torture device on the guy who had been torturing him. When there are quiet, serious moments in the books, I hear Fillion's quiet and serious voice. So no, I don't think he looks exactly as Harry is described in terms of angular features (for that look, my vision is of David Tennant) but I can still see Fillion as Dresden, because it's his voice and his expression that pops into my head so very often when reading the books.
Wow, that's almost exactly what I see in my head when I think of Hendricks. If his facial hair was less perfectly groomed and more perma-stubble, that'd be perfect!
Can Lara Pulver, Irene Adler, pull off Lara Raith?
I've wondered before if I'm defective or something, but I am not attracted to Matt Bomer at all. I understand the appeal. I mean, he's clearly an extremely good looking guy, but he just does nothing for me.Maybe you have really good gay-dar.
Benedict Cumerbatch, though? I swoon and swoon some more.Me too, sister, me too.
Now Benedict Cumberbatch and Matt Bomer are fighting for Thomas in my head and ...augh I can't decide.Go listen to this reading of "Ode to a Nightengale" and get back to me on that.
Like David Tennant. I think David can pull off Harry, honestly.Agreed!
I still want Benedict Cumberbatch in it because I'm a huge fan.Well, I submitted him for Thomas...
...I now want to see Benedict Cumberbatch as Harry Dresden.As Harry? Okay, no, I can't see that one. I think he is amazing in every way, but he is not Harry.
Is that the woman who was on Dexter for a little while? She certainly acted the part of temptress pretty well, so I could see that, too.
Of course, now I'm drifting back to Spencer Locke as Molly. She's how I've always pictured her.I don't think she looks quite edgy enough as "punk Molly." Especially since Molly seems to be really losing it in the recent book. Can this girl do kind of edgy/crazy/desperate? (The image you posted earlier of Taylor Momsen looked very much edgy enough.)
Punk Molly Apprentice Molly Mature Molly
Summer Glau looks amazing with white hair! Where did you find that?
I wouldn't see Christina Hendricks as Lea. For me, she lacks the class, is too vulgar."Vulgar"? But she's so lovely
I would love to see Milla Jovovich cast as someone. I just can't decide who. Any ideas?What about Lara?
Um, thank you for that.You're very welcome!
