Always thought that Gary Oldman would make an excellent Radical Inquisitor kinda in the style of Stansfield from Leon.

Christopher Walken would make a great Commissar.

Charlie Sheen as the Deciever

TBH I would voice him with James Earl Jones. Much classier.

I think it goes without saying, that Gary Oldman would be awesome in a Grimdark 40K world... in a multitude of roles...

Also, Patrick Warburton as Marnius Calgar

Hugo Weaving would be a great Asdurbael Vect imo. He already has the whole elf thing going on from LOTR anyway.

Hugo could do many many characters.


I think Christopher Lee would make a great Eisenhorn.

Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines

Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.

Morgan Freeman would make a good Emperor , Chuck would'nt. Christopher Lee would make a very good Sorcerer of Tzeentch.

The biggest indicator someone is a loser is them complaining about 3d printers or piracy.

Statham would bring Cato Sicarius great justice of over 9000

Marneus Calgar can only be portraied by one individual. Ray Stevenson on steroids.

The lord Cypher, Robert Plant.

Ian McShane - Fabius Bile

Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd
