Artemis Fowl Senior

Which actors would you like to cast? What do you want to see? What would you do if you were the director?

Wouldn't Jeremy Irons (Merchant of Venice, Elizabeth the first) be a good Artemis Fowl Senior???? I think he would, who agrees with me??????? ^_^

The only problem is(for me)that I don't think he is realy good actor!!!But if the movie is about 1st book only I don't think we will need Artemis Fowl senior at all!!!

Ooh, I think he will make a GREAT Artemis Fowl Senior! I think he's a really good actor, why haven't I thought of this before? :banghead: Silly me :focl: .

(I really liked his voice in The Lion King, and he was really good in Eragon. Too bad the rest of the Eragon movie sucked. :P )

That's where I know him from! Merchant of Venice! I couldn't figure it out! Thank you muchly.
I do think that he'd be amazing. He looks the part, if he had darker hair. My only concern is that he wouldn't take a job. That's my worry with all of the well known actors that people have chosen. They might not want such a "degrading" job as a small role in a movie based on a children's book.
Thanks to darvit and /b/for my signature. :D
And thanks Kagoma, for the awesome birthday present that is the C&H sprite!

He was in the Lion King? Did not know that.......
But I saw him when he won a Golden Globe and I think he's perfect!!!
I haven't seen Eragon either, I've read the books though!

He's become this special type of actor who plays these kinds of roles. XD

I first recall seeing him in Dungeons & Dragons.. I found it amusing to see him appear in Eragon. :focl:

Yeah, it would work. B) He's a great actor. He's almost 60 years old, though.. How old is Artemis Sr. supposed to be, anyway? :unsure: I imagined Artemis Sr. as a forty-something. :P

@Aphrodite: Yeah, he was the voice of Scar in the Lion King, I think.. :)

A job is a job, and money is money. A lot of prolific actors do small appearances or children's movies. For instance, William Macy has played all sorts of roles across the board, from Fargo to Doogal. I don't think that will be a problem with most actors.
