No need to recast, the original film is best

I know. I only telling this theoretically.
I'm interested which actors would fit into role

Id cast Brad Cooper as Kimble only because I thought he could have been the next Indiana Jones and has that Harrison Ford "every man" quality about him.

Here's my cast, then

Ben Affleck as Richard Kimble
Liam Neeson as Gerard
Natalie Portman as Helen Kimble
Tom Cruise as Nichols
Mark Ruffalo as Sykes

Leo has already done Catch me if you can. I don't think he'd be a good fit, since the similarities between the movies would take me out of the story. I would be constantly reminded of the other and would be continually making comparisons between the two.

It's not that Leo wouldn't do a good job.
