Perfectly cast roles in films

[CityStu]

Quite a few in the Harry Potter films - Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, Helena Bonham Carter, etc.

 

[Thorin Oakenshield]

Ben Afleck - Batman.














Only joking.

In fairness he was damn good in BvS. I find it a damn shame we are getting a young batman again. I would have preferred they simply recast Affleck with somebody more interested in the role and continue with the older batman. Along the way they could have introduced nightwing and oracle, characters long overdue their cinematic debuts

Not a film but Phil Silvers in Sgt Bilko the man was born for the part.

 

[DRINKLEVEDRY]

Robert donat goodbye Mr chips

Gregory peck to kill a mockingbird.

Everyone in good will hunting.

 

[bluemoon32]

Gene Hackman as Jimmy 'Popeye' Doyle, perfect

 

[FCBarca]

Everyone in good will hunting.

Especially Robin Williams who you may already know was written by Damon & Affleck with him already in mind for the role. Reminds me of Will Anderson doing similar with Rushmore & Bill Murray who was also perfectly cast IMHO.

I feel just as strongly about Jim Carey in the roles for Truman Show & Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

 

[Dicko69]

Not a fan of his but keanu reeves in the matrix, to think will Smith was 1st choice to play neo. He turned it down preferring wicky wicky wild wild west.

He was PERFECT as Ted in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.
