Merkel Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Probably playing the Beast Rabban, I reckon. If so, great casting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merkel Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Here are some casting predictions: David Dastmalchian will play Piter De Vries Benicio del Toro will play Stilgar Viggo Mortensen will play Duke Leto 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Viggo would be a great Duke 20 years ago. Now he's too old for Ferguson and Duke and Lady Jessica were similar age, there was no May-December or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merkel Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Actually, according to the book, Duke Leto was 51 during the events depicted, and Lady Jessica was 37. Viggo is now 60 and Rebecca is 35, so I don't think it's that much of a stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Oh, OK. Thanks. I guess I forgot but then, they all use spice for youthful look so it's hard to gauge, ha ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Glad this is getting made. Even though it will likely lose money and not get sequels like the Lynch version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dementeleus Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I think Leo would be awful as Duke Leto. For one thing he looks and feels way too young (I know he's not that far off age-wise). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) but between a bomb and a hit even if the boxoffice draw of an actor isn't the most perfect choice? Edited January 8, 2019 by Valonqar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGlass2 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Let's face it, this will be one of the best movies of the decade - and a bomb. Hopefully both parts will be shot at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has a chance to succeed at the BO this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On screen, he could look perfectly reasonable next to Chalamaletetelelmeta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
