James Purefoy - the BEST Marc Antony in history

miles replied: Agreed. Except for Marc Antony of course.

amsyco13 replies Yep. Purefoy was the best!

Alendil replies James Purefoy OWNED Antony.
So did Ciaran Hinds for Caesar.

Anyone who has ever seen a single episode of Rome, knows that James Purefoy is the only choice.

I may be alone on this one but Gerald Butler would be perfect for Marc Anthony. Before he became a poncey, romantic comedy dweeb he was a real actor with alot of sex appeal and charisma. Just sayin'.

Marc Anthony is without doubt GERARD BUTLER. But Jolie is no Cleopatra! She's to skinny for Cleopatra, she's to skinny for everything.

Clive Owen is perfect for all the reasons Marc Antony would inspire... as for Cleopatra, Jolie is simply too old, too smug faced for the childish playful cunning character. But then again this is Hollywood; let`s throw in Jolie, Pitt and maybe Depp as Caesar, an overly melodramatic script and people will flock like crazy.

Clive Owen would be a good match for the ambitious, impulsive, brutal and decadent Roman who fell in love with the Orient charms (but I may be biased by James Purefoy's performance ...).

As for Cleopatra, Bellucci was a very good match (though Cleopatra was in her 20s when she met Marc-Anthony!).

Michael Fassbender. Why? Watch him acting. He can become anyone. He is one of the best actors we can see nowadays.

Just get Brad Pitt and they'll make millions upon millions of dollars. Personally if it isn't the muscial that was being planned with Catherine Zeta Jones, then I don't care.

Gerard Butler, Daniel Day Lewis, maybe Russell Crowe (but I dont really prefer him)...They need to cast someone strong, someone who can emotionally and mentally match the performance that I hope Angelina will give. Cleopatra has such potential to highlight a mental and emotional character that uses these "powers" to manipulate, mold, and rule Egypt as a force to be reckoned with. Massive potential for this film, hope they can pull it off.

If I had to pick an already known actor, I think Javier Bardem would be an interesting pick, we'd see a more fighter side than serious, and he hasn't been a lead with Angie before....

Marc Antony from Jennifer Lopez should play Marc Antony, HA that would be crazy!

i think that daniel day lewis is the most qualified actor for this role,he is a genius.
another actors :Vincent Cassel or javier Bardem

Russel Crowe, but, Viggo Mortensen is an interesting possibility.

Although, Angelina Jolie seems a little old for the part.

Cleopatra was a teenager when she first met Caesar.

so agree with that. Great actor in different genres, good pair of legs. Also think that Daniel Craig could do the character justice as well,
