Default Esienhorn Movie?

So.. I've been thinking.. If they made a 40K Movie Series, Eisenhorn would work perfect... But who in Hollywood should play who?

Quixos- Anthony Hopkins: He is the perfect blend of intellect and insanity. Also, he rules.
Uber Aemos- The little squatty professor guy from Harry Potter... Flitwick? I couldn't think of anyone to fit him really.
Godwyn Fischig- Someone portrayed in the movies as a real starch ass. Maybe someone like.. Damn, I dunno... Perhaps the guy that played Morpheus?
Gregor Eisenhorn- Easy pick here, sorta. The only one who really matches Eisenhorns looks is bruce willis.

For the rest, lets here some opinions!

Bruce Willis is the ultimate space marine/hard ass IG character.



But nobody from hollywood should be in it save willis.


Call up the cast to 300.

So.. It is confirmed Bruce should be in the movie... Should he indeed be Gregor Eisenhorn, or some other suitably bad arsed character?

I think Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus) should be Midas Betancore because Midas is described as having dark skin, and they're both badasses. Fischig should be played by someone hardcore... I think that might actually be better for Willis. If they could make Christian Bale (Equilibrium, Batman Begins) look older, he would do well as Eisenhorn, I think. Bequin should be Kate Beckinsale (Underworld, Van Helsing, The Aviator). I don't know why, but she fits, in my mind.

I like these picks! You show some wisdom.. Now whats nagging me is who should play the role of Ravenor, Commodus Voke, Heldane, etc..?

i would pick Viggo Mortison for Ravenor (Hildalgo, and LotR)

Voke i would love to see Shawn Connery but i dont know (Indian Jones, 007, and many others)

also wasnt Heldane the guy that Eisenhorn sacraficed to bring forth Cherubael when he was fighting the titan?

if so i would use daniel radcliff of hairy potter fame just to see him used for something purposeful for once.

and who would voice cherubael? my pick would be the giant black guy from the green mile

also i would like to nominate Vin Diesel for Midas or Godwyin (Fast and The Furious, Riddick, Chronicles of Riddick, XXX)

also for Godwyin maybe The Rock (walking Tall, Doom, WWE fame, The Walk Down)

I like Vin Diesel as Godwyn.

The guy from the Green Mile is Michael Clarke Duncan. He was also in Armageddon. He would be a good Cherubael voice. Deep and powerful.

I think Hugh Jackman (X-Men, Van Helsing, and in 2008: Wolverine) would make another good candidate for Eisenhorn. Yeah, him as Eisenhorn and Christian Bale as Ravenor...

Heldane is the pupil of Voke in Xenos. In Malleus he is a full-fledged Inquisitor, and is kinda radical from what I recall. Doesn't Heldane show up in Gaunt's Ghosts, too? And Rawne kills him?

dammit man, i'm readin the ghost books at the moment! if you've spoiled something for me....

anyhu, how about jason statham (lock stock, snatch, transporter 1&2) for a roll? he's pretty badass, could be a good fischig or godwyin, or even eisenhorn himself.

ah heldane did appear to be just a muscle man when he first showed up. i guess some unknown could play him in his first few scenes but he would have a larger part near the end wouldnt he?

Vin Diesel is possibly the BEST actor ever made. Yes made. He is God and should be worshipped as so.

Did anybody in here actually read Eisenhorn? Anyone?

I'm almost done re-reading it. And it's still amazing. I did notice that we're getting a lot of caucasian actors for the part of Midas Betancore. He's described as dark-skinned.

Whoever plays Midas should be Hispanic I think, perhaps Bobby Cannavale.

Bruce Willis? Are you guys kidding? I honestly think that, with some practise, Tom Hanks could pull off a really good performance as Eisenhorn.

Uber Aemos should be played by Sir Ian McKellen.

I think Liam Neeson would make an excellent Eisenhorn, he's got a great voice to use the Will in.

Plus he can be badass like no other, Batman Begins, anyone?
