In a recent real world discussion I was asked if I thought they were planning to do a Horus Heresy movie or one that at least mentioned that topic for even a few minutes as background for another 40k story.
So the question is this, who is out there that could fit the look of the various Primarchs?
For even a camera pans past them as a quick look at these heros of yore?
post up your ideas here and lets see where this takes us.

Bill Gates = Peturabo

Nathan Fillion = Rogal Dorn

Wolverine guy = Leman Russ

Ian Maclakin = Magnus the Red

Lerando Dicapro = Sangunius

Nathan Fillion is too sweet looking to be a Space Marine, let alone a Primarch. It would be like Orlando Bloom being anyone other than Sanguinius. Hugh Jackman would be pretty good for Leman Russ though. I'd also like Edward James Olmos to be a primarch but can't place who he'd be good for. Maybe Rowboat Girlyman because he's supposed to be the spiritual liege or whatever.

The Rock = Vulkan

Christ Hemworth (the guy who played Thor) = Lorgar

Robert Pattinson = Fulgrim (Cause he is a pretty boy and can be bitchy!)

Brad Pitt = Horus Lupercal

Thats all I got for now...

I wonder who should play Mortarion. The actor's appearance wouldn't matter that much since Mortarion wore his helmet most of the time and was then horribly mutated, but his voice would need to be perfect.

Isn't Vulkan black? I thought he and all Salamanders had black skin because of their corrupted gene-seed?

Also, I think of Fulgrim as having long blonde flowing hair, haha xD
