the guys from Rammstein as russian mobsters.
The main cast from the sopranos as the italians. the asian gang from the fast and the furious as the yakuza.. the guys from cool runnings as the yardies. :D Me as the head of the Ancients.... (i ride like a fucking madman, and look like one too....) short of me... Ethan Hawke. Bruce Willis - as Dirk Montgomery |

Surely they would better portray "Der Nachtmachen" since, IIRC, Rammstein are all German... |

If you put a beard on Danny Devito, he would look like the dwarf on SR pg. 47.
Especially on Danny's final scene of Get Shorty. :grinbig: |

For some non-human roles:
Both Danny DeVito and Rhea Pearlman (I believe that's his wife) as Dwarves. For some reason when I look at the Shaman in the BBB I think of Rhea. I'd tap Vin Diesal, The Rock and Brock Lesnar as Orks (Brocks from WWE) The Big Show (whatever his name might be) and Vim Rhanes (not sure how to spell his name - played opposite the Rock in The Scorpion King.) For Elves I'd like Liv Tyler, or Jason Isaacs. I'd like to cast Isaacs in the role of Dodger if her were to make an appearance in the movie. I have to agree with Bruce Willis kicking some major mojo as Dirk Montgomery. I know he's hated, but I like the idea of Keanu Reeves. He has the look for a Cyberpunk movie. I know that for years before the Matrix ever came out a lot of characters I've seen in my gaming region that played SR were modeled on Neo types. (Black Leather with the trenchcoat - nothing amazingly original but he fits the look) I like Eliza Duhksu for a "militiant" type roll. I'd love to throw Alyssa Milano in there as a Hermetic. That's a pure hormonal thing however. Jason Statham, Val Kilmer, Ed Norton, would all be some of my other choices. |

Janeane Garofalo - Fixer, Mage (Imagine her snarling at someone, then ripping off a force 9 toxic wave...) and all-round hard-ass.
Face it, she's a raving nutjob loony who looks like she could litrally rip precious things from various parts of anotomy and keep them for later. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. - Waitress or street-mage. Sigourney Weaver - Rigger. I mean, she's all sniew and tendons and attitude. Whoopi Goldberg - Face or fixer. Go a bit grungy and have a rant. Gov. Arnie - Cyberzombie. Hell, he's got it down pat by now :cyber: And it/he doesn't need to speak much... Rene Rousso : Assassin. Typecast, but oh so believeable. Stallone - Washed-up Corp security advisor. I.e. - meat-on-legs. Hugo Weaving - Well, Corp Suit. Or fixer. Or Face. Or pure evil. (Out of interest, who though he was going to ask Frodo in LoTR: "Will you...cooperate, Mr Anderson?" I've asked about 30 people and the answer is "yes") Gillian Anderson - Rigger, oh yeah. Lance Henriksson - Face, fixer or mage. I mean, he drips outerworldly menace or what? Roseanne - Shaman. Probabily Bear. :) -l |

Did anyone see Weaving in Proof? He'd make a great blind magical investigator or something crazy like that.
And we want his real accent! ~J |

Okay, I'm just joining this conversation, and I'll confess to not having read the entire thread. However, I did read this. And I'm hurt. The Blackwing personality in Corporate Punishment is based on my character. Although Gary Oldman is like unto a god where acting is concerned, he would not be the one to play this role. Only one man has the physique, look, and mannerisms to properly play this role. That man is Adrian Paul. |

I only just thought of this (having seen Ghost Ship yesterday reminded me) - Gabriel Byrne! He's a great actor, capable of doing any role you push at him, and so his "face" could potentially fit any character! I'd probably go with a Johnson, though. Others from the film:
Karl Urban (Munder - also Eomer from LotR:TT) as a street mage/shaman. Real grungy feel to him. Ron Eldard (Dodge) would make a great combat worthy Face character. He was a Golden Gloves boxer, you know... Isiah Washington (Greer) would make a great Company Man - former or otherwise - complete with SUBTLE™ cyberware. And Yet More, at random: Takeshi Kitano (Takahashi, Johnny Mnemonic) as Yak Oyabun. Don Francks (Hooky, Johnny Mnemonic) Dwarf Rigger. Dennis Haysbert ("Chief" Billy Graham, Navy SEALS) as an Ork Sammy... Daniel Dae Kim (various - Angel, Voyager, The Jackal etc) Corp Cuit/Physad/Yak... take your pick. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (LOADS, including Shang Tsung from Mortal Kombat) as the Johnson from the shiny page pictures in the BBB - "Mr Johnson... and friends" Richard Jordan (Logan's Run, Dune, Many others) - Corp/Maf BIG BOSS Brad Dourif (fragging EVERYTHING!) Aged, whacky mage! More to come!!!!!!!!! |
