To ask for your BEST TV/movie casting?

[Cherrysoup]

Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner, menacing and scary!

Alan Rickman as Snape/in Die Hard, the sheriff of Nottingham (I may be biased, I think he was amazing in most things)

Bruce Willis in Die Hard, just the right amount of snarky humour.

Gary Oldman as Sirius Black.

Do you have any ‘bang on’ castings?

And this!
Also, he was wonderful as Lucius Malfoy.

Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce as Frasier and Niles Crane.

Gary Oldman as Jackson Lamb in Slow Horses. Pure genius.

I loved the books and he was just as I'd pictured - goodness that man is gorgeous

So many in the Harry Potter series. There were a few misses but far more hits:

Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid
Emma Thompson as Trelawney
Alan Rickman as Snape
Maggie Smith as McGonagall
Tom Felton as Malfoy
Brendon Gleeson as Mad Eye Moody
Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix

Robbie Coltrane as cracker.

Patrick Stewart as Professor Xavier in the X-Men

Angela Basset in Black Panther

Tilda Swinton in Orlando

Ana de Armas in Knives Out

Dafne Keen in Logan

David Tennant as the doctor in Doctor Who

Alan Rickman in literally everything

Peter Facinelli as Carlisle in Twilight (literally the only well cast character)

The entire cast of Nurse Jackie

Maggie Smith in everything (specifically Downton Abbey 😂)

Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean

The entire cast of NCIS (upto season 12)

Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn, the chap who played Eómer, Sean Bean as Boromir in Lord of the rings. Also Christopher Lee as Saruman was genius.

Hugh and Laurie as Jeeves and Wooster. As though it had been written for them.

Miss Fisher (as in the Murder Mysteries)

I'm not good at actor's names.

Stanley Tucci. He was scarily good!

Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny in The X-Files, crazy chemistry that you can’t write. Brilliant.

David Suchet - Poirot

Henry cavill as witcher.

I love Romy Schneider getting a mention. I love the Sissi films as well as her later work. She was a goddess!

Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean

Yes, this.

James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano
Ray Liotta as Henry Hill in the Goodfellas
Malcom McDowell as Alex in Clockwork Orange
Shelley Duval as Wendy Torrence in Shining (that poor lady deserves a bit of credit)

Ooh loads none of whom I will be able to remember now
Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn
Judy Dench as M
Daniel Craig as Bond
Henry Cavil as Gerard of Rivia
Helena Bonham Carter in anything, I love her
Joan Hickson IS Miss Marple

Morgan Freeman and tim robbins in shawshank
Thora Hird in talking heads
tom cruise in Top Gun
Daniel Day Lewis in gangs of new york or just about anything
maggie smith in anything

Godammit auto correct - Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia

Yes, she's outstanding.

Mitchell and Webb in Peep Show.

This!
I love the books and thought I'd hate the series. Inspired casting, as is Kristin Scott Thomas as Diana.

Ha, came to say LotR and three posters have already done so.
All round the perfect casting.

Josh O'Connor as Charles and Erin O'Connor as Anne in series 3/4 of The Crown. Casting in series 5 fell off a cliff for some reason.

Hugh Laurie as House
Andrew Scott as Moriarty

Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh in Killling Eve . Just perfect.

All the major Lannister characters in Game of Thrones
