Which actor should portray Werner Voss?

Recommended Posts

I'd cast my vote with Shia LaBeouf, though he's far from my favorite actor. But this is where he looks the part.

John Cussack is a good choice IMHO.

Nicholas Cage had the right eyes - but he is definitely beyond the age of a fighter pilot.

I like Robert Downey jr. - I guess he could play him.

Or the German Jan Henrik Stahlberg?

I hope there is no Voss movie. It would be about one day, that day would be overly dramaticized way more than it already is, the CGI would have the planes performing stunts a Pitts couldn't pull off, and the history driving the film would be flagrantly inaccurate.

He does make a very valid point.

Asa Butterfield did an amazing job in "Hugo" and I can't wait to see how he does in the title role in "Ender's Game" when it comes out in November. Since Hauksbee's script is still on the drawing board, there is time for this kid to age into the role.

 

Interesting coincidence is that he was born 100 years after Voss, so if you start filming in 2016 or 2017, he'll be exactly the right age!

Voss = Peter Lorre (obviously)

 

But why stop there:

 

Goering = Sydney Greenstreet

MVR = Errol Flynn

Ball = Alan Ladd

Bishop = James Cagney

Kitchener = Gloria Swanson

Teh Kaiser = Anton Walbrook

Haigh = Charlton Heston

Tsarina Alexandra = Ethel Merman

Rasputin = Liam Neeson

 

Wonder what the title would be - Voss in Translation ?
