Let's pretend we are PJ and company and can pick who we want to play the characters. The only catch is that we can't choose the actual actors. State who you would choose and why.
So instead of David Wenham, who would you choose to play . . .

Well, I didn't mind David Wenham's acting- it was more the screenplay that (for me) pretty much ruined Faramir. However, I did go to see King Arthur today at the cinema, and was quite impressed with Hugh Dancy, who plays Galahad (who's always been my favourite of Arthur's knights! ;D). I thought that he may have done a fair job at Faramir. His IMDb profile is here: www.imdb.com/name/nm0199215/, with photos and filmography. I 'd definitely recommend King Arthur, especially to those of you who have an interest in weaponry and warfare. The film has very, very little of Arthurian legend in it, but is rather a sort of historical epic focusing on characters like those in the Camelot myths. I really, really enjoyed. But, going back to topic, I'd be very interested what everyone else has to say about other possibilities for Faramir. Of course, as I said above, all of the acting in the LotR films was first-rate, but it's always fun to have these "what-if?" conversations! Elen sila lumenn omentilmo, Lomadia |

I searched for pics from Hugh Dancy and I think that he is not bad for Faramir...  Lol...I really don't have any idea for an actor who could play Faramir... But is there another opinions?! Share with us, ppl!  |

Ooh, I've changed my mind! ;D Henry Cavill is a wonderfully talented young actor, and he is very, very close to my idea of Faramir, both in looks and in acting style. I've only seen him in "I Capture the Castle" as Stephen Colley, but according to IMDb, he's also played 'Albert Mondego, Mercedes's son' in "The Count of Monte Cristo," which I have not seen, as well as some other films I've not heard of [did you know that they've made a film about Tristam and Iseult? It's coming out this winter- doesn't look very good, though.  ] Unfortunately there aren't many good pictures of him on the internet. This was the best I could find: Any thoughts?

I'm leaning towards Colin Firth. I think he would have made a great Faramir! I just love him. Here's a pic from www.firth.com |

I'm thinking Anthony Perkins (best known for Norman Bates in "Psycho") could have done an alright job. Unfortunately, he's been dead for some time.
I don't know. There must be someone out there who could play a perfect Faramir. The trick is to find him!
