He is good in the role...Quote:

If he can turn in one of his 'calm' performances, he's probably an excellent choice, actually.
Calm? Nobody wants a calm Brian
Mads Mikklesen for Leman Russ
Also remember that all big fantasy/sci fi productions must by law include Karl Urban, Sean Bean, and Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen.
I will also accept either Angela Landsbury or Maggie Smith as Malcador, no others.
Summer Glau for Night Haunter
Sean Bean - Ferrus Manus
Do I need to explain why?

As for Malcador....

There's a lot, lot more to her than Dot Cotton.
Yes, I am be srs.
Dunno, part of me wants him to play an Imperial Guard captain or similar character that is highly ranked enough to talk to the main characters, just low enough to plausibly not be a 'proper' named character in the HH books, to talk about his plans for the future once the Imperium is united...
...and then live. Preferably after doing something that even the space marines are a little surprised he survived. Just to mess with people's expectations. Set him up so that future imperial guard can have a shrine to the patron saint of lucky escapes.
June Brown was one of very few things that was great about the BBC adaption of 'Gormenghast' back in the tail end of the nineties. She's got my vote as a potential female Malcador. It's an inspired bit of casting, actually.
As for Sean Bean, he's really got to be Imperial Army. He's too down-to-Earth to be A Primarch. Cast him as the forerunner of Creed, or Solar Macharius. Or maybe Kyr Vhalen.
As for Mads Mikklesen. Yes. All the yes. Frankly, that man can play whatever Primarch he wants. The man's amazing.
Your vision of the Heresy skews less 'HBO' and more 'Flash Gordon', doesn't it? :)
