This thread and a thread on my Twitter for my Podcast (where someone posted 4 photos of actors and actresses asking who they should be cast as for comic book movies), made me think we should try something similar...

So...

Sir/King Graham -
Valanice -
Rosella -
Alexander -
Gabriel Knight:

Detective Mosely -
Grace Nakimura -

Are we talking modern day actors, or can we choose from multiple eras?

I can't think of anybody yet for now. But just to add something interesting, how about a cast for a Sierra biopic? Who'd play Ken Williams, Roberta, Al Lowe, Scott Murphy, etc?

Gabriel Knight = Humphrey Bogart, maybe? Or Ed Bishop (who played Philip Marlowe on BBC Radio)?
Detective Mosely = Victor Mature? Peter Sellers?
Grace Nakimura = Miyoshi Umeki? Keiko Agena?
Alas. All the male actors I've picked are long gone.

If we are talking about actors from any time, then GK is obvious. Tim Curry from around Rocky Horror era.

I love the idea of Paul Rudd playing Roger!

I hate to admit it, but Paul Rudd is a great choice as Roger...
