OMG LOL! Yes, he'd be "brilliant" to use the Doctor's words. Although isn't he sucked up into the Shakesphere theatre group? If not, I think that'd be awesome!

I second this one if it's possible.

Once upon a time an a casting thread long since closed, I mentioned [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0344435/"]Ioan Gruffudd[/url] as a potential [url="http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Lancelot-2-ioan-gruffudd-216178_1400_941.jpg"]Littlefinger[/url].... I think he'd play the charming harmless bureaucrat very well. (and this would help him redeem himself from the Fantastic Four films :) )

(McAvoy would be the ultimate Littlefinger, but he's to high-profile now)

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005171/"]Angus MacFayden[/url] for Robert.

Right age, right coloring, right body size (he is chubby, he could probably gain a little more or wear a fat suit). Looks kingly with his beard and all that (nice Leonidas vibe), currently has a minor recurring role on Showtime's Californication so seems like the right "price" of actor.

He was in the recent Saw movies, most of you may remember him as Robert the Bruce in Braveheart.

I saw an interview with Mark Strong yesterday and as I was watching I kept thinking he looked just like the Stannis I had imagined ;)

I've found another RENLY: [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1658935/"]Jack Huston[/url]

Agreeing with Aoede on Littlefinger -- he's always described as being slight in form and height, it's his personality and cunning that's [i]big[/i]. Personally, I would suggest [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1535423/"]Michael Raymond-James[/url] for Littlefinger. If I remember correctly, Petyr's father was Braavosi, so it suits that the actor playing him should look a bit more distinguished from the nobles around him -- he should look as though he doesn't quite belong.

:lol: Brilliant! Runkle as Varys...yeah well, maybe.

A lot of good suggestions here but I would like to agree on [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0130536/"]James Callis[/url] for Littlefinger (I think he could pull it off), or maybe [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0790688/"]Michael Sheen[/url] (as someone suggested) but he might be too expensive.

I also like the idea of [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005171/"]Angus Macfadyen[/url] for Robert and [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0835016/"]Mark Strong[/url] (too expensive?) for Stannis.
