Mistress Kizuna casts... Captain Britain!

Happy belated holdays, and a new cast list from yours truly.

I decided to do a fan cast for the Excalibur team. I've stuck with purely British actors for this one.

Brian Braddock/Captain Britain - Jamie Bamber. Amazing actor, as evidenced on Battlestar Galactica, and more recently in Law and Order: UK, relatively youthful, handsome and more than has the build for a superhero (just look him up on Google and you'll see more tha your fair share of him in nothing but a towel), and looks just like Brian in the face too.



Merlyn - Christopher Lee. He's already played a badass wizard on Lord of the Rings. I'm open to other suggestions though.


Roma - Natalie Dormer. Gorgeous and talented? What more is there to ask for?


Elisabeth "Betsy" Braddock/Psylocke - Lena Headey. Since Psylocke is Brian's twin sister, it makes sense to cast her, right? And Headey is not only good looking, but she great at being tough.


Jamie Braddock - James Purefoy. I'll admit that I haven't seen much of Purefoy's stuff other than a couple episodes of Rome, but he was great in them, and would be pretty funny as Brian Braddock's crazy big brother. And Purefoy, Bamber and Heady actually do look like they could be siblings.


Meggan - Rosamund Pike. She's been making her name in several movies, and she's just perfect. She's got a down-to-earth quality to her that fits in perfectly with Meggan's elemental empathy.


Pete Wisdom - John Barrowman. Just watch him in Torchwood, visualize him with longer hair, a beard and an eyepatch. I'm open to other suggestion with the caracter too.

Good cast! The only one I don't see is Bamber. Not that he
isn't an amazing actor 'cause he is!

But the Marvel site lists Captain Britain as 6'6". Jamie's
only 5'9" unfortunately and I don't care how they do the
camera angles he will look short! I thought I was pushing it
with 6'2" Rupert Penry-Jones as Brian Braddock!
The only way they could make Jamie look tall is with fx I'm
afraid!

Solid casting, no doubt!

Christopher Lee is class all the way, and the Roma and Megan picks are dead ringers

To DDD: I don't think height should necessarily be an issue. I mean, tons of people have Sam Worthington as Captain America in their fan casts even though Worthington's barely 5'9 himself. There are many other examples too, so I think Jamie could more than manage.

Besides, since when have comic book bodies ever been particularly realistic anyway?

You got a point there Mistress@! I mean they've
made midget Tom Cruise look like a giant throughout
his career! lol

Jamie Bamber is an amazing actor and would do the
part justice! I'm just a stickler for accuracy!

Cool. I do like bamber but I agree with DDD that he might be a tad on the small side..im sure he could get away with it.
