Perfect Casting, part 2

[Dina]

WOW! How I didn't think on that before? JAmie is a perfect Mac!

[Cdawgi]

None of the above. James Marsters would be the logical choice to play Harry. He seemed rather tall from the few episodes of Buffy that I watched and he is the official voice of Harry Dresden. Still thinking on who would be good for the other roles, but don't you think Christian Bale would make a suitable Thomas?

[NeuroHeart]

Sooo - how about Adam for Butters - he's dippy enough.

Yeah, he's got the character for it, for sure. He's a bit tall and redheaded for Butters, but Lord of the Rings proved that height can be changed, and he already changes his hair color. (I still picture David Krumholtz, though, and likely always will)

Glad I'm getting some agreement on Jamie    I was just re-listening to Dead Beat, and heard Mac described as "bald and good at it" and he just popped into my head. The more I thought about it, the better his demeanor fit.

James Marsters... seemed rather tall from the few episodes of Buffy that I watched

That's television magic for you. I have met the man, and he was definitely not more than three inches taller than me, so he's 5'9" at most. Bear in mind that he was often on screen with Sarah Michelle Gellar, who is 5'2" or less.
Besides, he's too pretty to be anyone but Thomas 

(P.S. Christian Bale is not pretty enough to be Thomas.)

But if Jamie was cast as Mac, he'd have to shave his mustache!

[NeuroHeart]

But if Jamie was cast as Mac, he'd have to shave his mustache!

I don't see why. Descriptions say he is bald, but don't specify clean-shaven. As least, I don't recall a description saying he's clean-shaven. (The fact that he is described as wearing black slacks and a white shirt just clinches Jamie for me.)

I love how psyched she looks to be getting her picture with the Bruce.

I was just trying to be in character.  Yes.

[NeuroHeart]

That was you, Priscellie? Cool 


So, I see Mouse as a shaggy Irish Wolfhound:

(They're huge)

And Mister as a big Scottish Fold:


I would love Eddie Izzard as Bob:



Outside the household, Ron Glass as Rawlins:

I don't have photos for most of the rest of the police force.

Was re-reading Summer Knight so I did photos for Lily, Fix, and Meryl:

I was just trying to be in character.  Yes.

You have no need to justify. It was The Bruce. That's reason enough to be psyched up.

Also, Stephen Fry for Bob.

Whaaa?! 

[Lara]

So Nathan Fillion is out front?  I absolutely love the man, but I can't see him as Harry....

[NeuroHeart]

Whaaa?! 

I don't quite understand your confusion. Could you elaborate on it?

Please, allow me:

Jim has mentioned many times that Mouse is a Caucasian Mountain Dog (or one of the variant names of that breed).

*shrug* Jim has also mentioned that Erica Cerra is his casting choice for Susan, but that doesn't keep me from seeing her as Gina Torres. Huge, shaggy, grinning Irish wolfhouds look like the initial picture I formed of Mouse after reading descriptions of him in the novels.

[habu987]

Never seen him in anything, but he looks plenty intimidating.

Check out Prison Break.  Robert Knepper's character T-Bag is one of the freakiest bad guys I've ever seen on tv.  Before watching that show (I just finished watching the second season on Netflix), I don't think I'd ever seen a character that actually made my skin crawl.  Perfect for Nicodemus!

Re: Nathon Fillion.  Thank you, NeuroHeart.... I'm beginning to see the light!
