I think Bardem is a great choice for Roland. We'll see if he accepts though.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
I love you all I really do...from one constant reader to another but I seriously am infuriated with Javier as Roland...I am the Richard that is posting on Lilja's facebook release about this...I respect the man as an actor but he is much more suited for Marten then Roland...Long, tall, and ugly is not him...
Christian Bale would be a better Roland.
I like the idea of Bardem. He really is an amazing actor and I've loved him ever since I saw him in The Sea Inside.
I wonder if he'll accept the role or not. He just had a new baby a few days ago and signing on to play Roland is going to be a HUGE time commitment.
I am Daenerys Stormborn and I will take what is mine. With fire and blood.
I'm completely with you Richard. I am so disappointed in this news. First we go from the incredible creative team of Lost to Ron howard. And now . . . With the exception of daniel craig, who was a rediculous thought in the first place, I would have been happy with any of the actors on the list to play roland. I am not happy with the choice of Bardem. This is off to a bad start. Ruined my whole day. Ha

I like the idea of Bardem. He's not someone I imagined playing Roland, but when I heard his name, I thought: Hey that's not a bad idea.
Just another three beans on the subject:

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
I would much prefer Jarvier Bardem to Christian Bale. Bale is a god awful actor with no range what so ever. However, I have not seen any Bardem movies..can he even speak without a spanish accent? Plus, he has brown eyes so he better freakin wear some contacts.
Guess my dream of Viggo being Roland is shattered.
i think "Bardem" is over-rated. i think "Ron Opie Howard" is smoking crack cause "Viggo" is a by FAR better actor, if "Bardmen" takes this job he'll have to lose A LOT of weight cause Roland is skinny & from pictures i've seen of him he's to heavy. i'm sorry he does NOT look the look at all. someone on the IMDB board said that they should get the dude who's on 'Haven" if anyone watches that show
on "Syfy" channel the actor who's name i forget but he's the main male lead on the show. the cops son. or rather the cheif's son. look him up he looks just like "Roland' Ought to look. he may be too young for it, but they could always age him.
I don't believe he can speak without a spanish accent. Still so bummed about this mess.

hell even "Antonio Banderas" did i spell his name right? hmm..?? let me know if i did? if not sorry about my spelling, anyways, that's a guy for example who's been doing american movies for almost 20 years now. & even HIS English though good, still has an accent in them.
Viggo was my first choice, but maybe he just wasn't interested.
Madness.
I don't much care how good an actor he is, but this is terrible. Accent or not, he does not look white. He has brown eyes, he is a Spaniard. He does not in any way resemble even closely resembles the arch type that is Roland...
Is it so hard to get a half decent white actor?
They should have gotten Mortensen at any cost.
Howard has got to be smoking crack here.
THANK YOU that's just what i said.
Where the hell is frank darabont when we need him?

i wish i knew man i wish i knew
You all are preachin to the choir!!!! Viggo Mortensen is wayyy better than Bardem. Even if they could not get Viggo, a least get an actor who looks like Roland. An actor that has blue eyes!!! If Bardem does accept the role (I hope he does not accept it!) I hope he at least wears blue contacts!

I agree on both accounts. Especially on the part of Susannah! A white actress would screw up the entire movie series!!! If the actress is white, the character aspect of Odetta/Detta would fall apart! Nothing would make sense! Especially for the book The Drawing of the Three, the Odetta/Detta character was half of that book plot. Also for the Song of Susannah. The entire Mia/Susannah/Detta character plus the whole entire storyline will just die!
If the actress is white, the whole entire characterization of Susannah will fail! The movie would be better off if it just leaves out the character of Susannah instead of making it a white actress!

Bardem would be great as Roland. They'll olden him up a little and he'll look great.
i was talking to my dad tonite about him. & he said it best. the guy looks like a horse! he goes he he he's got a horses head. i thought about it. & you know what? he's right! he DOES indeed look like a horse.
It would make sense for an actor that looks like a horse to play him.
From The Waste Lands
"Keflex. You can trust it, Jake; it came from a government-approved pharmacy in good old New York. Roland swallowed a bunch of it, and he's as healthy as a horse. Looks a little like one, too, as you can see."
yeah i know, i LOVE that line. but as someone said Roland is English he's NOT described at all with an accent. i am curious though on one thing, how in the hell will the high or low speech sound?
