I actually think that Paul Bettany would fit the bill for Josiah. Either him, or Paul Blockthorn. Neither of them seem usual, but in the movies where they've played as villians, I think they'd be perfect.

Bettany would be perfect. And did you mean Blackthorn, cause there's no Blockthorn. Don't think he'd be quite right though.

Bettany's roles all ooze his British-ness, though. While he's one of my favorite actor, he's honestly not right for Josiah, either. Josiah just seems, background wise, very ambiguous. I must have different views of the characters than all of you.

I see Josiah as a gentle man gone mad due to the poisoning of the shards and the drive they've given him to accomplish his plan. I don't see him as anything close to an 'ultimate villain' in any regards than his power. Bettany is an epic man built for epic roles, he couldn't play Josiah.

The only person I could see Bettany playing is the head of E'Shuyum, Jack. Seeing as how Jack IS British, and his role demands a more comedic twist, which Bettany can deliver.

Cairoi pretty much has it down.

Josiah was a gentle scientist interested in solving problems of the world. He originally planned the shards to be an energy source. But when the government took away his life's work and threw him in an insane asylum to keep him quiet. He became obsessed with revenge, and when his shard returned to him, he snapped. He got his revenge, and turned to trying to get what, by his perverted logic, belonged to him: the world.

All this is going to be revealed in the prequel.

For some reason, my mind keeps bringing me back to Matt Damon for Josiah...

Honestly, I could see Matt Damon. I say Matt Damon or Edward Norton.

I could see Norton as a Jeremy or Leon. I dunno about Josiah. But Damon, basically does the part he normally does at first, then pulls out his character from the Departed for the rest.


Were Stanley Tucci younger, he could do Jeremy too.

Leon: Hugh Jackman

Holly's Dad: Robert Deniro or Harrison Ford

Isha: Gina Torres

Holly: Summer Glau

Josiah: The guy from the hulk, or Matt Damon

She came up with someone good for Edgar, forgot who...

Alright, so so far it seems like everyone has been cast except for the coolest character, and one of the characters who are not nearly so cool as my own.

I am at least pretending not to be biased in any way whatsoever.

Who is Brad, and who is Seifer?

Yeah, me and Cairoi have been talking about Seifer a lot. It's a hard choice. I halfheartedly threw out Viggo Mortensen. Cairoi seems to like Jared Leto.

No clue about Brad. Hm...

If any of you have seen Dexter, I'm sure you'll agree.

Me, I loved this RP, and I had a great time doing it with you all. Can't wait till the next one.
