although he would also make a funny Vect, or some random skitsoid Astropath/Sanctioned Psyker. or perhaps a Cultist

**yellowsnow**

George Cloney should be a space marine or some IG commander.

I read the second name and then realized that you should keep 40k out of your sexual fantasies.

i think Dolph Lundgren would make a great marneus calgar

**RxGhost**

I think Dolph Lundgren IS Marneus Calgar.

**Riddick40k**

Gerald Butler as Marneus Calgar...... THIS IS MACRAGGE!!!!... *Kicks a nid into a bottomless pit*

Russel Crow as Sicarius, He's already got the Roman Centurian look down

Liam Neeson as the Emperor! He already voiced a jesus lion why not an immortal?

**Uhlan**

Those movies should be cast from human history... 40k is a grimdark space opera not a kitch soap opera for adolescents... dangit.

That said, I can imagine...

Bruce Willis as a disgruntled IG NonCom on Cadia. Interesting blend of subtle humor, sarcasm and action.

Anthony Hopkins as Fabius Bile. The perfect closet psychopath.

Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as Fulgrim Though I don't care for the series, he's great in the 'Tudors'.

Paul Bettany as Sanguinus. Great actor. Plus, he comes with his own wings.

...to name a few.

Too many edits!!!!

**Mr Nobody**

My memory fails me, but you know the guy who did Neo in the matrix and th en in the day the earth stood till? He'd be an eldar since they show very little emotion and he has the right look forit too.

**OverwatchCNC**

Keanu Reeves?

**Mr Nobody**

OverwatchCNC wrote:Keanu Reeves?

Yes, that's the one.

**bthom37**

Arnold as a C'tan.

**Kurce**

Sarah Jessica Parker-Nurgle

oh wow... i burst out laughing at work. people are looking at me funny now. man, that is so frikkin' funny. you are a very bad man.

**Thousand Nuns**

Helen mirren or judy dench as a canoness. ( i could see them bashing heretics....ish)

Sigourney weaver as an ordo xenos inquisitor.

Lucy lawless as a seraphim?

The scarred commander guy from avatar as any guard officer or commissar.

Sam worthington as a marine scout.

Lemmy as any orc. Or should that be orc god...

The nazi from inglourious B***ards as...well anything he's just awesome.

And lastly bruno ganz (downfall) as goge vandire. "I'm too busy to die!"

**Cranberry Muffinman**

lol @

Paul Bettany as Sanguinus. Great actor. Plus, he comes with his own wings.

Bruce Willis would be a great Space Marine Serg or Captain

Ever heard Keanu Reeves speak let alone act? The illusion would end as soon as he opened his mouth.

**Zakiriel**

Richard Simmons as Abbadon.

He was fantastic in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure as Ted "Theodore" Logan.

**Brotherjulian**

Anthony Hopkins as Fabius Bile is freaking brilliant! I'm always going to imagine Bile in a Hannibal Lecter voice now.

Russell Crowe as Leman Russ, he's a real brawler. (depends how he looks with a beard)
Clint Eastwood as Yarrik, as said , or maybe as Solar Macharius
I think Brad Pitt as Sanguinius (think of Achilles in Troy with wings)
And just for fun I'd fit Steve Buscemi in somewhere as a Chaos sorceror

**Commisar Von Humps**

Christoph Waltz, the guy who played Colonel Landa in Inglorious Bastards would make and excellent Commissar/Imperial Commander/Inquisitor

Mat Damon would be the perfect Chaos Spawn

Alec Baldwin would be a Great Chaos Lord or MAYBE a Captain or Chapter master or something.

**Colep715**

Bill Nighy as Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn and Arnold Shwarzenegger as Kharn the Betrayer.

**Cybronx**

Blasphemer! Heretic! Burn!

Am I the only one who thinks Tom Hanks would make a good Ibram Gaunt?

I agree!

**Harriticus**

Daniel Craig/Vin Diesel/Stephen Lang as any generic Space Marine Commander.

Vigo Mortensen as Lorgar. He plays heroes these days but one of his earliest roles was playing Satan in the 80's movie Prophecy. He would be a good Lorgar if he returned to that kind of depiction.

Vinnie Jones (Juggernaut in X-men 3) as Ghazghkull Thraka

Christian Bale as Konrad Curze (see American Psycho)

Liam Neeson as Eisenhorn

Kelly Hu or Maggie Q as Commander Shadowsun

Christopher Lee as Ahriman or a generic Dark Eldar Archon

Jude Law/Orlando Bloom/Keanu Reeves as any kind of Eldar.

**asimo77**

Jackie Chan as the Emperor

Robin Williams as Horus

Tyler Perry as Vulkan

Robert DeNiro as Rogal Dorn

Steve Buscemi as Malcador

Everyone else-Eddie Murphy

Yes, yes I am...also, Russel Crowe as Khorne-everyone remember South Park where he went around the world beating people up? Yeah, sounds like something Khorne would do. Khorne would also have a boat named "Tuggah," I'm sure.

Obama=Tzeentch

Courtney Love=Slaanesh (and to think, until I said this Slaanesh was my favorite...crap)

**BSent**

Neal Patrick Harris as Commisar Yarrick. He already has experience from Starship Troopers.
