lol, yeah, i'm the "newbie". funny, as a fan of SRD for 22 yrs, and someone who read the Gap series as they were released back in the early 90's i still end up being called a newbie. anyway, it was Angus i was proposing Jackman to play, though when i posted that i didn't realize how tall Jackman is. (i read just today how he is 6'2"). considering how well he has done with the surly character of Woverine i figured he could handle the character, and i was thinking he could put on a few pounds, ala DeNiro in Raging Bull.Elfgirl wrote:Noticed in another Gap topic that a newbie had suggested Hugh Jackman as Nick...nice choice, but Hugh don't have the 'grimace'!
it is a shame Jack Black hasn't shown an ability to play a dead on serious role, because he is a physical match for the part. then again, maybe Angus could be his break out role. i mean, back when Caddyshack came out who thought Bill Murray would ever be a "serious" actor? (though after seeing "Razor's Edge" i saw the potential).
