Lion El Johnson - Dustin Clare

 

Fulgrim - Jude Law 

 

Pertuabo - Scott Atkins 

 

Khan - Jason Momoa

 

Russ - Hugh Jackman (cliche yes, but I like him) 

 

Dorn -Kevin Mckidd

 

Konrad - Kim Coates 

 

Sanguinius - Chris Hemsworth

 

Ferrus Manus - michael fassbender

 

Angron - Dwayne Johnson 

 

Roboute - Charlie Hunnam 

 

Mortarion - Manu Bennet 

 

Magnus - Paul Bettany 

 

Horus - Russel Crowe 

 

Lorgar - Ron Pearlman

 

Vulkan - Peter Mensah 

 

Corax - Frank Grillo 

 

Alpharius and Omegon Vin Diesel & Jason Statham  

I'd save Fassbender for Loken. Whoever said Cillian Murphy as Argel Tal, congratulations, you've made the Word Bearers Irish in my head. So, Dohmnall Gleeson for Xaphen.

 

Neither Statham or Diesel have the cerebral vibe that the twins need, in my opinion. Also, they're twins - just have one actor play both like Jeremy Irons in Dead Ringers and Arnie Hammer in The Social Network.

 

I cannot for the life of me picture Crowe as Horus. I could imagine him as Meduson, though.

For Khan, I like the guy in Thor over Momoa

For Sang, I stick by young Brad Pitt

...but as that's impossible, how about Travis Fimmel (of Vikings fame) minus the beard

EDIT:

Based largely on his dancing scene in The Assassin, Chang Chen for Jubal Khan.

I searched Chang Chen...and it looks like he could play any WS character. I think maybe even the Khan.

For Russ, someone who looks like this

I know he's slightly cliche for epic fantasy and sci fi movies but I feel Hugo weaving has a place here somewhere. I can't put my finger on it, maybe a word bearer? Also have we done Khârn? Brother Chaplian Kage took care of one of my favorite characters with Ahriman(fantastic choice by the way I can never unsee it in a good way), but who to play Khârn? While I like tom hardy something about his face doesn't mesh well in my head, he's got the chops but I feel he doesn't look gruff enough.

 

As a final note I'd throw in James Purfoy as Sevatar.

We forgot someone.

 

There can be no grimdark cast without Christoph Waltz!

 

This man is a genius actor, who earned a place in a Warhammer cast as a villain. Erebus or Kor Phaeron maybe? Lorgar even?

 

What do you think?

Surprised to see that Liam Neeson hasn't been mentioned yet. I could picture him as one of the Alpha twins (think Raz al Ghul) or as Lion El'Johnson (think Qui Gon Jinn).

 

Also, for Lorgar, the fella who played King Xerxes in the first 300 movie. I always read Lorgar speaking this way when I'm reading.

Old cucumber for Malcador could be interesting.

I'd go with John Hurt for Malcador. Cumberbatch could work for Lorgar.

 

Also - guys, the twins are identical. That's their thing, that no one can differentiate them. You can't just cast a guy to play one of them.
