Hmm, Paul Bettany seems to be a good choice.

i actually love that tom hanks was cast as langdon. langdon has a lot of intellegence and depth and heart in his character and i can see tom hanks acting him very very well.

who would be sophie? that one is kind of puzzling me.

exactly! that's why I said earlier it was more about Sophie than Langdon, I had the feeling there was actually more of Audrey in it all... like it was her "journey" with Langdon as a background, which felt strange since Tom's acting was more like: "yeah, whatever". Is it only me who felt that they were kinda emotionless about everything and actually only Leigh showed a little bit of excitement? nope just me? :lol:

I never pictured Langdon as physically sexy or hideous looking while reading, so Hanks seems like a good choice to me. I'm not familiar with Delpy's work. I've only seen her as a guest on Graham Norton's show, but she seems lovely.

Sir Ian McKellen is in it! I can so see him as Teabing.

When the news about The Da Vinci Code the movie came out, i was actually thinking of Viggo Mortensen as Langdon. He could play that role really well, plus he's got all the stuff Langdon has - that cleft, the body. It's just him. I agree that Tom Hanks was miscast. No matter how good he isas an actor, if the role doesn't suit him, he'll not stand out.

Paul Bettany :nod: he made Silas look hot. :lol: Silas' supposedly a huge scary creepy Albino. Though, he played his role really really well. I thought he actually has the best performance in the movie, but he's the character that is colsest to the character on the book.

RE: Angels and Demons, that is my favourite novel! I would be thrilled if it'll be a movie, but please not Tom Hanks again.

Yeah I wasn't thrilled with Tom Hanks being chosen for the part but hopefully it won't bother me so much while watching the movie. I agree that Paul Bettany looks perfect but I pictured someone more portly for Teabing. Actually when I saw Ian McKellen was in the cast I immediately thought he'd be playing the grandfather so I was surprised when I found out that wasn't the case.

I jsut got back from seeing it. I liked it, the book was better but I enjoyed the movie. although I didnt like Tom as Longdon it just didnt seem right to me thats not a all how I pictures him when I read the book. I loved Paul in the movie he played Silas perfectley. I also didnt really like the ending of the movie either
