You can't just DO THAT to a person! I mean, my 8-year-old cousins could get away wit no knowing who Freddie Mercury is, but then I'd have to have a stern talkin'-to with my uncle about how he is failing his children.

[also, "her"...]

How about Bryce Dallas Howard for Lilly? Or Maeve, for that matter.
My Dresden Files Purity Rating is 40%. It'd be higher if I could find the time to actually play the DFRPG.

This may have been mentioned before (possibly even by me) but Joe Manganiello could be a really great Harry. He's a bit buff for the role, but he's got the right look and is pretty tall at 6'5"

was just going thorough older pages on this thread

still say Clancy Brown for Morgan.  That voice, that presence...for god's sake, he's not just the Kurgan! He's Lex FREAKING Luthor!

This is who i picture as Morgan when i read, even though I never realized it. 

also, what about Christian Bale as Kincaid?  big actor for a small part but I can kind of see it.

And I know he's not Hispanic (no shoe throwing please)  But I think it would be hilarious to see Mark Walberg as Carlos, talking about how pretty he is.

Edit:  So i can justify it, I'm thinking of the scenes in the Departed between him and Alec Baldwin, legit laugh out loud stuff right there.
Magic, motherf*cker.

If we're doing a non-hispanic for Carlos, I still have to go with Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

After seeing a thing on some Livejournal about casting the Dresden Files, and some other stuff, I've had a few new ideas. The list is just in the order that I thought of them.

Harry=Paul Blackthorne
Bob=Peter Dinklage (The man is a god of snark)
Murphy=Sarah Jane Morris
John Marcone=Mark Harmon
Hendricks=Adam Baldwin
Gard=Uma Thurman or Tricia Helfer
Erlking=Tom Waits
Nicodemus=Timothy Dalton
Peabody=Wallace Shawn
Morgan=Clancy Brown
Mortimer Lindquist=Kurt Fuller
Mother Summer=Hellen Mirren
Mother Winter=Tilda Swinton
Maeve=Mila Kunis
Odin=Rutger Hauer
Merlin=Bill Nighy
Ebenezar=Jeff Bridges
Leanansidhe=Julianne Moore (Christina Hendricks is an acceptable option)
Michael=Jeffrey Dean Morgan
Shiro=George Takei
Butters=Steve Buscemi (The voice James Marsters does for Butters in the audiobooks even sounds kinda like Buscemi)

That's all for now.
My Dresden Files Purity Rating is 40%. It'd be higher if I could find the time to actually play the DFRPG.

You're asking for the same death sentence as GW.
