Totally wrong. Mis-cast if you will

Post by Captain Nash »

Now it doesn't take a degree in rocket science to understand that many of the forum members are unhappy with the casting of Daniel Craig as James Bond.
But do you think any other character has been mis-cast in the past?
Who doesn't fit the role as it were?
This can be any character, be it in a Bond film or any other.
For me, one that springs to mind is George Clooney as Batman.

Ralph Fiennes as Steed. Richard Roxborough as Sherlock Holmes. Kate Beckinsdale in anything.

How about Daniel Craig as the poet Ted Hughes in Syvia. I may have the wrong man, but as I recollect the fella was 6 ft 4 plus. :shock:

Anthony Hopkins as the original Zorro (with Antonio Banderas). Good actor, but definitely did not look like Zorro.

Agreed. That stick couldn't hold up to tough chicks such as Sigourney Weaver, Carrie-Anne Moss, ect.

What is it with Hollywood trying to sell supermodels as tough chicks in leather? :roll:
