Actresses? WTF? There are no wimminz in my warhams!

In the darkness of the 41st millenium, there are only men. Bald, screaming men. So I guess I'd have to go with Jason Statham.

I don't think Morgan Freeman needs to play the Emperor's Voice, he can just outright play the Emperor.

Ooh, we could have Jack Black as an ork that forgot to charge because he was too busy being kooky and zany!

I guess we'd have to recast the role afterwards.

Sean Connery can be the old-yet-still-totally-badass-ladies'-man Inquisitor.

Robert Pattinson as Dante is an interesting idea, it would allow him to redeem himself after Twilight, unfortunately, it could very well draw in millions of lunatic fangirls who would all start wearing "Team Dante" shirts or some crap.

Of course, the positive here is that it would give 40k nerds an excuse to talk to girls... Besides, all women are lunatics.

If you say so, personally I think the Twitards can stay the hell out of my 40K, but then again I have a gf already who puts up with my hobby. If I was still single I would probably agree with you lol.

Well in all serious tho, Robert Pattinson himself hates Twilight and only signed on to do the movie so he could hit on the lead actress. So I'm seriously thinking he should have a chance to redeem himself. I know you were trolling/being sarcastic on that one, but its actually not too bad an option
