I've wanted to see Viggo Mortensen as Dracula for quite awhile with Michael Gambon or Alan Rickman as Van Helsing and Felicity Jones as Lucy with Rachel Hurd Wood as Mina and Daniel Radcliff as Harker (with a lot of emphasis on their love story) with David Tennant as Renfield, with perhaps Rupert Penry Jones as Seward. Mind you, I also think a four or six hour miniseries is the way to go!Zahir Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14533361554787004824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287358707617356230.post-82275849423757404912011-12-16T05:27:27.248+11:002011-12-16T05:27:27.248+11:00As most of my movie exposure comes from American m...As most of my movie exposure comes from American movies, it's admittedly hard to think out of the box. If, for example, I knew of a Dutch actor with a similar appearance to Van Helsing, I'd defer to him.<br /><br />Do you have any ideas for a better cast? :DAnthony Hogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05097943063660238778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287358707617356230.post-176269758719783152011-12-16T05:20:52.114+11:002011-12-16T05:20:52.114+11:00You seem to be focusing on an American retelling o...You seem to be focusing on an American retelling of <b>Dracula</b>, since your cast is virtually all-American. With that in mind--yeah, methinks you've got a good idea there.Zahir Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14533361554787004824noreply@blogger.com
