It's June and PoA movie finally is out. Before and after the movie there was a lot of stink about the choice of David Thewlis. So... do any of you like Thewlis more now? Do some of you still have a different person in mind as your ideal Remus? Please share and bring photographs (or good links!) I'll start... I did a fan art with David Wenham (as Faramir from The Two Towers) as my Remus. You can view that at growl.8m.net/art/aikakone.html |

Hmmm...right now I'm kind of lovin' the idea of Hugh Jackman ...but have also seen pictures of Ralph Finnes that make a good looking Remus. Although one of my favorite fan arts of Remus is found on The Full Moony here by Shley. Although will give credit where credit is due and conceed that Thewlis wasn't terrible, not ideal, but not terrible. |

In my opinion, that art looks like Sean Bean, who is frickin' GORGEOUS! No complaints on that.
Oh, and Sean did play David W.'s brother in LotR, so it's all good.
I love Ralph, but I never saw him as Remus. Perhaps it's because of his darker brown hair.

Sean Bean for Remus, yes, yes, could agree with that  ! Too bad Jason Isaacs was already taken for Lucius, he would have been yummy too!  |

Hugh Jackman I can see... I could see David W., too... But I think my ideal Remus would be Ewan McGregor (I probably spelled his last name wrong... ignore that). I know he's not so... er... rugged, as most people assume Remus to be, but make-up does wonderful things. |

Perfect Remus...I've always been fond of David being Remus actually. Though I'll concur that Ewan McGregor (sp?) would also do the job nicely. ;D

I was put off by the moustache in the publicity stills, but when I actually saw PoA, I thought Thewlis did a smashing job. He had just the right blend of nerdiness and competency. I don't see Remus as being conventionally handsome. But maybe that's just my personal preferences coming into play.

As much as I'd love to think of him as a rather 'debonair' type guy, I don't think he is either. I think he'd be more the average joe, the type of guy woman don't necessarily 'swoon' over at first, but fall in love with over time, once they get to know him. |

Hmm... On second thought, I agree with that, too. In my mind I see him as horribly quirky -- a bit more sharp-looking, pointier than Thewlis.
I was very happy with his particular musical taste, however. That made me smile. ;D

I squee'd like an nutcase when I found out David Thewlis was to play Remus, hes pretty much who Id always envisioned and I'm a huge fan of his anyway. I have never looked back. I think he was perfect for the role.

I have nothing against David actually... just that he didnt look like "my" Remus I can agree with Aikakone about David.W. But I am pretty stuck with David.T's charm. He has sort of an ohh... effect on me. So with David.W's looks and David.T's charm he would be my perfect Remus.

I'm sorry I just noticed the post! Tells you how often I come here, doesn't it.  It's David Bowie in my avatar. PSSam, I am *finally* looking at the pictures of Tennant because now that I've seen the GoF movie, I have name recognition with him. I can definitely see this man as more Remus-y to the Remus that lives in my head. |

I found another potential Remus! Jefferson Hack! Lovely name, yeh? Some would either not know who he is or know him as the father of Kate Moss's child Lila Grace or the co-founder and editor of Dazed & Confused (have no idea what that is personally), impressive resume. Here's some pics: www.myvillage.com/photos/kate_moss_jh.htmwhat do you think? |
