Ossicle Wrote:You're right, he does look good. At first I thought Viggo Mortensen could be really good, but didn't realize he's very tall. I guess that is a mark against him.
Viggo Mortensen is 5' 11" (according to his profile on imdb.com). That is the same height as Jack. So as far as height goes, Viggo is perfect. His face is very distinguished though, which isn't good for Everyman Jack. I like him for the part because he has a rugged persona, which I like in a hero character.
I do think Marky Mark would be better than most other suggestions I've heard. I also think Eric Bana would be good. It might save him from The Hulk debacle. That wasn't his fault, it was just the horrible screenplay. The best actors and the best directors couldn't have turned that into a good movie, I think.
