Nicholas Cage would probably get it seeing how Hollywood miscast him in 99% of the films he's in.

Not one single suggestion for an Indian actor? Why are they all for white men?

I don't get it..

LOl he would probably even keeps his mullet

Brad Pitt.

reply

Hahahahahahaha! Maybe Brad would do as good a job (or should I use Brad's Cherman accent to say "chop"?) as he did in "Seven Years in Tibet."

FWIW, if you think there's anybody around who could equal Ben Kingsley's job, you're just spinning your wheels.

Besides which, why would you want to remake a masterpiece? What's missing from the original? A remake would be something like repainting a Rembrandt, wouldn't it?

reply

Patrick Stewart? Granted he isn't as dark as Ben Kingsley but he does have good screen presence.

reply

Christopher Walken, though he'd have to shave. his head. and learn to speak.. complete sentences. Obviously.






Opinions are just onions with pi in them.

It should be an Indian, in which case he would be unknown to western audiences since there are not many Indian actors who are well-known here. Not a white actor with a spray-on tan or whatever. Apparently some white actors were considered before Kingsley, and that's just strange.
