I can see that. I think of Vlad as an edgy, brilliant guy, and one of the first actors to come to mind presently to fit that description is Johnny Depp. He's introspective enough and yet can be baddass enough. He also has that "hidden depths" thing going for him, and could pull off the kind of "adventure angst" feel that enclouds (heh) Vlad. One caveat - he'd have to lose the effiminate flair of his Capt. Jack Sparrow character - I don't get that vibe from Vlad at *all*. johne (phy) cook wisconsin, usa personal blog: http://breezeway.blogspot.com aerie blog: http://aeriepress.blogspot.com/ stormfort list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stormfort/ >From: Ryan Grove <ryan at wonko.com> >If we could go back in time to about 1990 or so, then I can easily see >Vlad being played by Timothy Dalton.
