Just got done watching Cowboys & Aliens (great movie imho despite the... odd name) and was extremely entertained by Harrison Ford's acting in his gruff role. When I saw him pull a close-range headshot on a large xeno thing with a revolver my mind went "I wanna see this guy as an IG Commissar!"
Now tell me, what actors do you think would make the best Commissar for a 40k movie involving IG?
I'm not suggesting a movie or anything, I just want to have some good lolz and ponder any interesting thoughts provided by any Dakka-ites who come across this thread.

Praise be to the Omnissiah
IG/"Legion of the Damned" - 5000 points (Cripes, when did that happen?)
Vampire Counts: 1000 points? Maybe? Either way... Welcome to the Jungle |

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood. |

Samuel L. Jackson. Man would have NO problem with executing a pansy-ass deserter. Ladies and Gentlemen (but mostly nerds), I believe I have found us a winner. And you all KNOW he'd be perfect.

Yeah, I agree. At least he's got the face for it.
I say Robin Williams. If his use of funny voices and whimsical attitude does nothing to inspire you, well he just shoots you in the face. No I'm not serious.

Ok, Willam DaFoe as a VERY close second. I still think Samuel L. Jackson is perfect though. I'm just glad nobody said Ah-nold or Stallone. Just saw "Black Death" last night though, and I think Sean Bean (Boromir, for those you unfamiliar with the actor) would make a great Commissar with short hair too. He can be a *alternate name for "Rick"* and get the job done.

Jason Statham, he has no emotion to speak of so would be perfect. Hugh Laurie could go well, has a great no nonsense stare. Stana Katic (Beckett from Castle) could make a good femComm.
Johnny Depp would make a good inquisitor. Mark Harmon (Gibbs - NCIS) would make a perfect Gaunt.
