That Ewan would play Collin's part and Collin would play Ewan's part. That would make the movie MUCH better in my opinion.

Nah, Ewan plays a very good hardliner and Colin without played the breakdown of his character perfectly.

Yeah I really liked the fact that they played the characters against type. I was really impressed with their on screen chemistry; Great actors> Would love to see them do something else together in the future.

I think it worked fine the way it was.

The possibility occurred to me but I reject it. For one thing, Collin is a better actor and better able to handle the emotive stuff his character called for. Ewan is more artificially slick and better suited to his role.
