Perfect Casting, part 2

If Hopkins were 30 years younger, I'd be all for him as Nicodemus. As it stands now, his age lends him more towards Eb or possibly even the Merlin.

[MoSeS]

^ Agreed

[Warden John Marcone]

I could get behind Hopkins as the Merlin.

Go back in time and get Richard Harris before he passed. He's got the look and he's certainly got the acting chops.

[Kali]

I dunno, I like Hopkins as the Merlin 'cause ... Richard Harris was a sweetie pie.  Sure he could also pull-off a badass Dumbledore, but the Merlin should have that Old Warrior air about him, along with Wise Old Wizard.

He's too nice.

Get his son, Jarrod to play the role.

Get W. Morgan Sheppard to play the role of McCoy, and his son Mark to play Morgan.

I agree, I've heard that Anthony Hopkins can do creepy well, but I can't think of any movies that I've seen with him where he plays a creepy character. (Actually, at the moment, the only movie that he's in I seen that I can think of is The Mask of Zorro)
But yeah, NI like him for Eb, but I do feel like mentioning that he's supposed to be playing Odin in Thor, who's the choice of Vadderrung?

Have you never seen Silence of the Lambs?

I don't recall seeing any warrior-ish description of Langtry in the books. He just looked like the wizard's wizard, IIRC.

Moving off Merlin, Nic and Eb.  (Who walk into a bar....no never mind...just being silly.)
Anyway when someone mentioned only calling Crispin Glover the "creepy pale guy" it reminded me that we used to call Oded Fehr - "the tattooed desert dude" from "The Mummy."
Anyway, though he's a bit short - I nominate him for "The Gatekeeper"

Thinking about it - Arnold Vosloo might make a good Nic - he can do nasty really well.

Mmm.  Oded Fehr.  Remember in The Mummy when the plane crashed, and he stumbled around, then took off that stupid flying hat and shook out that hair?  I fell in love.

Then he cut it.  Men with hair like that should be forbidden by law from cutting it.  Men with nasty hair can cut it, men with beautiful hair should never.

...

Sorry, where were we?

tis easy to regrow hair.

Not sure where this falls in the conversation, but when I close my eyes, I see Kurt Russell as Michael, Will Smith as Sanya, and Pat Morita as Shiro.
