IIRC, in TPTP Foul is invisible, surrounded by a corona of Illearth green. We see him in WGW, but he is sort of blurred out, like in those police chase programmes
I don't think leonine means the features here I rather picture a mature man with a flowing grey hair, you know like a Greek God on a painting... or like Sean Connery in The Rock when he came out of prison.

I dunno folks.
When I saw Jackson's representation of Sauron for LOTR's I thought that is basically how Foul would be. No, not a great big firey eye, but more etheral <sic> and intangiable. No facial features at all except for his err, firery eyes.
Finding the right VOCAL for Foul would be a good challenge. I still get this idea that he has this BOOMING DEEP voice. But then something like Connery or Hopkins would be good I guess. Too bad James Earl Jones (aka voice of Darth Vader) is passed on.
He's not quite deep-voiced enough for my liking, but Patrick Stewart. I suppose he could put on a deep voice... (Bear in mind that, being English, all the Landspeople have English accents as far as I'm concerned )
TC: Viggo Mortensen
Foamfollower: Liam Neeson (I'm having a hard time deciding if I actually think he'd be good for the role, or if I'm just biased because the guy is HUGE)
Lord Osondrea: Dame Maggie Smith

I think Ewan McGregor should play TC in a very small thong. No but seriously. He looked quite sick in Trainspotting. Maybe he isn't old enough(?)
The reality is in this head. Mine. I'm the projector at the planetarium, all the closed little universe visible in the circle of that stage is coming out of my mouth, eyes, and sometimes other orifices also.
I think Mira Furlan (Ambassador Delenn in Babylon 5) would make a magnificent Memla na-Mhoram-in, the Clave member who converts to TC's side. She excels at portraying offended dignity.
A few days ago, rereading the scene where Memla tells TC she found out the Clave had lied to her, I heard her words in Furlan's voice...

I think Keanu would be great, although I always see TC as being old and somewhat haggard.

ahahahhahaa, yeah and Jackie Chan could be Lord Mhoram!
