    He's convincing. He does the typical British-to-American thing of just making his voice low and gruff like, say, Hugh Laurie in House (are we all that gruff?) but it works.

    i dont think there is an "american accent" because different places have differentaccents

    That's true in Britain as well.

    Hugh does a good one he is subtle about it, if he was doing the texan from the simpsons it would be obvious :D

    Like Jason Isaacs in Black Hawk Down. That one was painful.

    Take away the beard and shorter hair, that'd be a great look for a real life Kenny I think.

    Do what?

    That guy has Chuck written all over him.

    that's not kenny, its chuck
  • edited October 2012
    He doesn't look it in that picture, but Dillahunt is too young to play Chuck. I agree he'd make a decent Kenny. He wouldn't be my first choice though. He'd make a great St. Johns brother, however.

    I'd like to see Harold Perrineau do it, just to hear him yell "CLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!" when she's taken away on the boat.

    Definitely Omari Hardwick. He looks more like him than any actor, and he's played the roll of caring for a little girl before (in 'Kick Ass'). The only thing is his voice isn't really deep enough.

    Exactly! I guess Idris Elba or Michael Jai White would be the next best thing, but I can't picture either one of them playing a character as gentle as Lee.

    depends how the writers and director wants it to be (plus producers)

    Lee is obviously a somewhat young man (late 30s, possibly). Denzel Washington is about 15-20 years too old for that role. And that girl looks a little too old.

    Yeah but I wouldn't mind, Denzel is awesome. They usually make kid roles a litte older.

    And I don't want his old butt playing my baby daddy Lee.

    Who do you think would be a good lee if they were to make a show/webisode?

    My choices Michael Jai White all the way

    Michael Jai white really needs to start getting some work before he gets too old and miss his action hero window. I mean that guy is a great martial artist. I couldnt believe he got a petty role in batman just to die without kicking any butt.
    Im really hoping they hurry up and make a Black Pather movie and have him play him.
    but I dont really see him as a Lee. Possibly. But lee cant drop kick people. Every time I see MJW in a movie and that dosnt happen Im disappointed.

    Uhm yes this^^^
    But then again Denzel gets all the work. Give some other black actors a chance to shine. Not to mention hes gettin to old.
    He would still kick the roles a$$
  • edited October 2012
    Nice one for Clem up there ^

    I like Michael Jai White for Lee, but I think the Omari Hardwick is a nice find for him too. Got the look but I have only seen him in one movie.

    What about the rest of the cast? I'm always interested in casting. I say Jennifer Carpenter for Lilly. That's my only "perfect" one.
  • edited October 2012
    I agree Denzel is a bit too old. Idris Elba is a good choice. He looks so much like Lee I wonder if he inspired Lee's character design. The girl would be good. They could age her up a little from 8 to, say 10.

    And I just found out Omari Hardwick is from Georgia. It was written in the stars. :)
