But it MIGHT work. Fiennes as Caesar is good. I still like Daniel Craig as Anthony. He is LOADED with sexual charisma. Ha!<br />I can't wait to see who they cast. The news should be coming along pretty quickly now that Jolie has signed on.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-2174673799651642782011-03-30T20:31:25.127-04:002011-03-30T20:31:25.127-04:00I did some thinking and came up with some casting:...I did some thinking and came up with some casting: Russell Crowe as Antony (we know he looks good as a Roman from Gladiator). Ralph Fiennes as Julius Caesar is a possibility, maybe even Colin Firth as Caesar, but definitely not as Antony - as much as I love him, he doesn't have the sexual charisma needed for the part.Julie at Outlandish Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16595989966510183531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-89179000989102772082011-03-30T19:43:33.923-04:002011-03-30T19:43:33.923-04:00Well, but remember that Cleopatra was mostly of Gr...Well, but remember that Cleopatra was mostly of Greek descent. A descendant of the Ptolemies who spoke Greek. I think Jolie could look the part with the right make-up and whatever.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-64070401733920319932011-03-30T19:39:21.151-04:002011-03-30T19:39:21.151-04:00Much as I love Jolie I can't help but wonder w...Much as I love Jolie I can't help but wonder why the producers wouldn't want to cast an model who might actually look the part. After all, that was on of the (many) faults of the original; Liz Taylor just didn't pull of "Egyptian."Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-5921162755894087452011-03-30T17:09:00.031-04:002011-03-30T17:09:00.031-04:00Julie: I think she'll be perfect.

For Antony, it's hard to say, I'm really not up on the current actors out there. Just please don't cast Eric Bana!Julie at Outlandish Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16595989966510183531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-48011004353092098582011-03-30T16:52:08.537-04:002011-03-30T16:52:08.537-04:00Yes, I think so.
