Wrath of Terra Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Chow Yun Fat as Khan? That's just lazy thinking. How about we go for a guy who's played Genghis Khan in real life in the film Mongol. Namely this guy; http://www.celebritywonder.com/wp/Tadanobu_Asano_in_Mongol_Wallpaper_1_1280.jpg http://www.timeoutsydney.com.au/film/reviews/large-mongol31r.jpg http://medicinema.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/mongol460.jpg Anyone who's seen the film will testify that he turned out one hell of a performance. Also I reckon that Kevin McKidd would make a good Guilliman as long as he played as he played Lucius Vorenus in the early episodes of Rome. I imagine Guilliman to to as rigid, inflexible and humourless as Lucius in these episodes but also like Lucius having just some sort of presence about him that would make people follow him.

However, I wish people would stop suggesting Jackman as Angron or Russ. He's a poor Wolverine and he'd be a poor Russ/Angron. He can't do berserk believabley. Christoper Walken might make a good Curze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Still going for Jason Statham as Angron, his personality and the way he looks is perfect. You could literally take Jason, CGI him in power armour and thats job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Haven't got actors for a lot of them yet, but I do have: Horus: Laurence Fishburne Fulgrim: Jason Isaacs Khan: Chow Yun-Fat Lion El'Jonson: Brad Pitt Mortarion: Patrick Stewart Vulkan: Samuel L Jackson Rogal Dorn: Liam Neeson Angron: Jason Statham Ferrus Manus: Vinnie Jones (does huge, crude and tough very well) More to come as I think of them!

Hello, by the way, first post and all. I laughed so hard when I saw Samuel L Jackson, I can imagine it now ;) 'Enough is enough! I have had it with these goddamn snakes on this goddamn battle barge!'

Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 He is the Primarch of the Salamanders, after all! I had more Mace Windu in mind than Snakes on a Plane ;) Vinnie was originally going to be Angron, but I decided he'd be better as Ferrus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 The list i am creating just now had Liam Neeson as Dorn as well, some how it fits perfectly. :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Now quite tempted by: Bill Nighy as Mortarion, Gerard Butler as Russ (based purely on his performance of Leonidas in 300) Patrick Stewart as Magnus Jude Law as Sanguinius (don't be too harsh, Sanguinius fans, I know he's a :cuss, I just think he could get the character right) Christian Bale as Corax Still need Guilliman, Lorgar, Perturabo, Konrad Curze and Alpharius, but I'm getting there! Oh, and would Malcolm McDowell be too old for Dorn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandOfDorn Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I think Andy Serkis would have to be Night Haunter, and maybe Hugh Jackman as either Angron or Corax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Good call on that, didn't think of him. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Ooh, Andy Serkis as Night Haunter! VERY good call, and I hadn't thought of him either. And would Michael Dorn with his awesome voice be a good Vulkan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandOfDorn Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I think Serkis has exactly the right look, and we know he can do the demeanour through acting Gollum in LOTR, dark man indeed. I think Christopher Lee would make a good Mortarion too, except i dont want to be stuck in the LOTR cycle of actors haha.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 He's a bit old, but otherwise he'd be brilliant. I'm still going with Bill Nighy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandOfDorn Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 He's a bit old, but otherwise he'd be brilliant. I'm still going with Bill Nighy though. Yeah thats why i was reluctant, and yeah he would be good, except i have him typecast as the guy with a dry wit from various british films haha... I think Jared Leto may make a good Corax too?

Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Yeah, Jared Leto would be a good Corax. I'm still stuck for Lorgar and Guilliman, because I don't know what they look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandOfDorn Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I would imagine Lorgar as regal yet zealous (the wrong kind of zeal at that..) and Guilliman as probably much like Dorn in character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I can sort of picture Leonardo DiCaprio in Word Bearers armour. Would I get horribly flamed if I suggested him as Lorgar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdfest10 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 The Emperor - Timothy Dalton El Jonson - Eric Banner Sanguinius - Orlando Bloom Guilliman - Stephen Lang Dorn - Tom Beringer Vulkan - Djimon Honsou Corax - Paul Bettany Khan - Ken Watanabe Leman Russ - Liev Shreiber Ferrus Mannus - Jason Statham Alparius/Omegeon - the Olsen Twins (just kidding, Vin Diesel) Night Haunter - Bill Nighy Magnus - William Dafoe Angron - Vinnie Jones Fulgrim - Jason Issacs (easy) Mortarion - Kevin Spacey Purturabo - Arnie Horus - Viggio Mortensen Lorgar - Gabriel Byrne Malcador - John Hurt Valdor - Daniel Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 That's a sweet cast, Vin Diesel as Alpharius is a great choice, and John Hurt for Malcador. I like Djimon Honsou as Vulkan, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guillermus of Eisenheim Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 The complete list at last! Primarchs Lion El'Jonson: Brad Pitt Fulgrim: Jason Isaacs Perturabo: Gerard Butler Jaghatai Khan: Chow Yun-Fat Leman Russ: Liev Schreiber Rogal Dorn: Malcolm McDowell (I imagine Dorn looking like Tolian Soran - Google him if you're not sure) Konrad Curze: Andy Serkis Sanguinius: Jude Law or Toby Stephens Ferrus Manus: Vinnie Jones or Jeff Bridges Angron: Jason Statham Roboute Guilliman: Kevin McKidd Mortarion: Bill Nighy Magnus the Red: Hugh Jackman Horus Lupercal: Laurence Fishburne Lorgar: Liam Neeson Vulkan: Michael Dorn Corax: Hugo Weaving Alpharius Omegon: Vin Diesel Marines will be played by the same actor as their Primarch unless they’re specifically described as looking different. All Alpha Legionnaires will be played by Vin Diesel. Malcador: John Hurt Kyril Sindermann: Jim Broadbent Euphrati Keeler: Emily Blunt Mersadie Oliton: Kerry Washington NOTE: You may be surprised about my choice for the Emperor. It's stated that the Emperor was born in Anatolia, which is part of Turkey, so I chose a Turkish actor for the role. EDIT: Removed the actor for the Emperor. It wasn't a great choice.

Pulse Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Your reasoning for a Turkish actor is obvious but he doesn't look much like he would suit the role. Especially with that voice, what a bad mix up. :tu: Michael Dorn is a good choice for Vulkan i have to admit, why though do people assume the role of Vulkan has to be taken by a man that is coloured? I suppose it helps people relate. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
