...and if this film were still made in 2004, it should have the following actors:

Shylock ... F. Murray Abraham
Antonio ... Ian McKellan
Portia ... Kate Winslet
Nerissa ... Keira Knightley
Bassanio ... Colin Farrell
Gratiano ... Christian Bale
Lorenzo ... Jude Law
Jessica ... Rachel Weisz
Solarino ... Gary Oldman
Solanio ... Tim Roth
Launcelot Gobbo ... John Hannah
Old Gobbo ... Christopher Plummer
Tubal ... Warren Mitchell
The Duke of Venice ... Anthony Hopkins

P.S.: I still haven't decided who should play the Leonardo or the princes of Morocco and Aragon. Any suggestions?
