    Who for you would be perfectly cast in their roles?

    2 ones for me recently would be Bale as Batman & Craig as 007....

    Any others?

    Both Ian McKellan and Vigo Mortenson I felt were excellently cast for their respective roles in The Lord of the Rings.

    This for people in roles based on characters in books? like,bond and lord of the rings already mentioned.
    Well I'm gonna say Laurence Fishburne in the Matrix.

    especially since Mortensen was a last minute replacement, couldn't imagine anyone else as Aragorn now.

    Think I might be getting confused between 'good actor' and 'perfect casting' with these suggestions, but Daniel Day Lewis in most of the things I've seen him in, notably In The Name Of The Father and My Left Foot, have. Also, Viggo Mortensen in A History Of Violence, loved him in Eastern Promises (what a movie, what an actor,
    sauna scene eek!
    ) but maybe it's hard to call it perfect casting considering the roll required a russian accent which for me was the only 'weak' aspect to a serious performance from him.
