I think Hugh Laurie ia a good Roland Deschain
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Viggo. He fits Roland beautifully.
ReplyDeleteMy first choice is Hugh Jackman, Second choice would be Viggo Mortensen.
ReplyDeleteTimothy Olyphant - just watch Deadwood and you will see his swagger just seems like Roland in live action. Actually a lot of the cast of Deadwood should find its way into this movie/series, some very fine actors.
ReplyDeleteNone of them. I think Daniel Day-Lewis would be a perfect Roland Deschain.
ReplyDeletei totally agree!!! he's the only one who could pull it off.
DeleteI completely agree with the Hugh Laurie choice. He'd be PERFECT.
ReplyDeleteNo to Mortensen (geez, guys, Roland is not Aragorn!), no to Hamm (too handsome) and a very, very cautious "maybe" to the other two.
ReplyDeletePeople forget that Roland is not classically handsome. He's actually rough-hewn, leathery, lined, even a little ugly. I don't mind if the actor playing him isn't butt-ugly, but I will mind if he's excessively handsome.
My choice is very unconventional: Mikhael Persbrandt.
