So the local gaming group started thinking about the Ulta movie comming out. Assuming it does fantastic and they decide to a live action movie set in the HH who would you pick to be Horus? The big E or any of the primarchs? If this has bee done before sorry but we though it was an interesting question.

It's a good thing this is a joke list or I would be crying sorrow filled tears of blood from my anus.
Horus would be tough to get right I think. I would have to say that none of the actors could be the traditional Hollywood stock. They'd need to be new or really unknown actors that just have really good skills. I would NOT want to see a well known actor filling anything more than a 5-minute side roll.

Horus, i'd give to Ben Kingsley, with some minor facial prosthetics for scars. Im not kidding, the guy is perfect.
Alpharius, i'd give to Robin Williams, because he has the right facial shape and is a damn good actor. Possibly with some big hair...

When you call an intimate moment with your partner "the Assault Phase"
Is that followed by a pile-in move?
That brings a whole new meaning to the term "Hit and Run"
Can that be following a deep strike, or do you have to wait until the next round? |

You guys are crazy, THE Chuck Norris can't play the Emperor as he gets pretty much killed... The Emperor probably wears Chuck Norris pyjamas, super man does...
Chuck Norris once ate his birthday cake whole, before his friends could tell him there's a stripper in it! How wouldn't he kick some crappy Horus actors ass?!
I'd cast Mick Hucknell as Magnus!
On a serious note, being an ultramarines movie, surely it wont be during the HH...

- Roboute Guilliman
"As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

Granted the list is in jest, I think that Samuel L Jackson would make a better Vuklan than Shaq. Also Billy Crystal for Croax? I would rather see Christian Bale as Croax. Wait Bale can be the Night Haunter. As for Croax, how about Jason Stathem? Also I think Cary Elwes needs to be included in this list. Mabye make him Ferrus and drop Ashton? Also for Khan, I think we can get a good asian actor instead of having a washed up American wrestler. How about Jet Li or the guy who played Sulu in the new Star Trek moive?

As if on cue, you hear two people singing from the stairwell, and the door is opened and a pair of very smelly, very dirty guardsmen stumble in, completely drunk, and covered in vomit, and immediately collapse unconsious on the porch.

And yea, I made that same point. I would lose all faith in GW if they ever made a full-length film with the slowed idiot-spawn that dwell in Hollywood and call themselves "actors"
And yep. Emperor was Turkish, so I'd want to see him played by a Turk.

Eh, I wont go so far as to say he was Turkish, I mean, he was born in 8000 BCE, well before Turkey was around

Agreed on Daniel Day Lewis, for Horus or the Emperor. Hans Matheson would be good too, if you know of him. Little known British actor.
I quite like Paul Bettany but he always gets poor films. He would be good as one of the Primarchs.
Bill Nighy as the Emperor?
