Modern Remake

I know it's a blasphemous thing to bring up, but the whole time I was watching the film, I was thinking how fun it would be to see Elijah Wood take on the lead role in a remake.

Who else do you think would be good in a modern remake? I could only come up with actors that I really liked for a couple others.

Josef - Elijah Wood or James Franco

The Advocate - Ricky Gervais (it is supposed to be a comedy, granted a black comedy) or John Goodman

Leni - Marion Cotillard or Rachel Weisz

Titorelli, Block and Uncle Karl would all be very fun comedic roles too, but I haven't been able to think of anyone that fits in my mind...

Here's the issue with trying to make a modern adaptation of one of Kafka's works...The only person I could think of that should even attempt such a project would be Jim Jarmusch

Colin Hanks as Josef K. He has an appropriate nebbish quality, but also plays paranoia and seething frustration very well.
