If they can get Robert Carlyle...

[reddevil18]

Which is probably why he declined to act in the travesty that was Indy 4

Or it could be the fact that he's half-dead.

Ian Mcshane or Nathan Fillion. Nah, just kidding. Except for the Nathan Fillion part.

The whole purpose of this is what actors would you like to see. They can name whoever they'd please. I mean, if you read the first post...

...who else can they get? Think about it, really. RC sounds like a good, big paycheck type of man. Maybe he's not here, who knows what he is making with SGU (or will)...but who else would you like to see in SGU, if all doors are open?

I'd like to see Kevin Spacey, David Paul Boreanaz (Angel), James Marsters or even Nathan Fillion. I think David/Kevin/Nate would all make a great Young. Although Nate/David would be better -- they are more suited to be in funny roles, like Jack O'Neill. However, I doubt David would give up bones for SGU -- and Kevin Spacey is a stretch...but who knows?

What do you guys think?

...you'll see that this is, if all doors are open (meaning even if they couldn't get the guy, because of budget or availability or lack there of), who would you like to see in SGU? So unless your a mod or the person who started this thread, how can you tell us what not to dream?

David Dayan Fisher - he did a guest appearance in "The Game" on SGA, Season 3. He's had a recurring role as CIA Agent Trent Cort on NCIS. Was in "National Treasure", among others. There's just something about him that seems like he'd fit into the cast of "Universe".

Anybody else I can think of is already involved in other series or movies.

And James Marsters is on "Torchwood'!!!

[AvatarIII]

Or it could be the fact that he's half-dead.

or more likely the fact he decided to retire from acting in movies after having such an awful time on LXG.

as you can see all he's done since LXG is the voice in a 007 compter game and a voice in an animated short.

Is he really?

That's one thing I love about the man. Whether he's playing an Egyptian immortal or a Russian sub commander, he still has the same accent. Bless him, he doesn't even try to sound differently.

Last time I checked. Plays an android I believe!!!

Wow, did not know that. I knew he was on the Dragonball movie, but Tourchwood? He picked a good show at least.

[SG1Commander]

How about Robert Duncan McNeill (Tom Paris in ST Voyager). Though I guess by now he isn't really young anymore, but he's not old either. He might make a good Everett Young.

I could actually see Robert Duncan McNeill as Everett Young. Although, that might be considered type-casting. But, again, that would be an awesome choice.

The show starts filming in a month, so shouldn't we be hearing more news about casting soon?

Nathan Fillon, William Shatner (Played as Denny Crane Style, Not Star Trek style), Mila Ventemiligia (Peter petrellie from Heroes), Rick Astley (Come on! Space Roll!) oh and Samuel. L. Mutha****in Jackson!
