    He looked the part just fine for Legolas, but he's a terrible actor and he overdid it in practically every scene he was in.

    oh well yes of course... I always said Pirates of the Carribean would be great if it weren't for him and Kiera Knightley.... fortunately they've both refused to do anymore (as if they were really wanted) :smh:

    you know i started to entertain the idea of Craig for Roland after i watched Casino Royale, but i don't want to give up my Hugh Laurie so i say Craig can play Walter maybe...

    ok, lets have a worst case scenario.

    what if... the movie was made by WWE films?




    Roland:



    Eddie:



    Susannah:



    Jake:



    That guy from WaG/Gunslinger born I can't remember the name of right now:



    Yeah, so whoever they end up choosing, just remember it could have been worse

    He's headed down the road Keanu Reeves has already paved.

    There are some pretty impressive lists. Cleese as Dandelo is a decent choice and after watching House a lot lately, I think I can get on the Hugh-for-Roland train (Daniel Day Lewis is still my #1 choice, though!)

    I honest to God don't know, but me and my cousin came up with a joke cast once. Lets see...we had Christopher Walken as Roland, Whoopi Goldberg as Susannah, Justin Timberlake as Eddie, and Macaulay Culkin as Jake.

    Tiffany thank you for also wanting Daniel Day Lewis for Roland.

    Also even though I've seen Gary Oldman as Flagg/Walter. I could def bet behind Robert Carlyle. He would def be able to pull it off.

    Default Who would I want to play?

    I'm a newbie here, but I've been a fellow traveller with Roland since the first book was published. At the time it annoyed me that we didn't reach the tower by the end of that book

    If I could play anybody it would be Father Callaghan.

    He has real depth and resonates throughout the tale, with the back links to Salem's Lot. He is a huge part of the story arc and as much a part of Roland's Ka Tet as anybody. I admire his moral courage and conviction.

    Thanks Mat,

    I loved the realisation FC had when he realised he never had to justify himself to Barlow in SL.

    Also the scenes with FC and Jake in the Dixie Pig.

    I'd likely be Cuthbert... I think he's the closest to my actual personality, plus the physical description matches:

    Good to see you, Steve.

    This is a monster thread so I thought I would just pop in my 2 cents and someone who has followed most of this can tell me if any of these have been mentioned yet.

    I kind of like the Hugh Laurie idea. Clint is definitely to old but did anyone ever mention Tommy Lee Jones? He sadly is also probably a bit too old but damn, he has the temperament. Josh Brolin? Maybe. He doesn't really blow my skirt up.

    For Suze it needs to be Angela Basset.



    She can shoot a gun and she has that regal quality about her that she will need. Also she's a damn fine actress.



    As for Eddie, I don't know. He's a tough one. Shia Lebeouf comes to mind, especially after some of his recent films. He has decent comedic timing and he already has the benefit of being in several action flicks. He's also a bit of a f*ckup so he's got that going for him... which is nice.
