I thought it would be a good idea to have a space to discuss what roles we would like Julian to play if we were in charge of casting!

i personally would also like to see jrt as a superhero. can't you just imagine standing on top of a skyscraper,in a tight-fitting lycra suit saying his superhero catchphrase then zooming off into the distance, his cape swooshing behind him..... :drool:

Oh yes I'd totally be up for him to play the next Doctor...or even better a villian in the new series so him and the Tennant would be on screen at the same time! :swoon:

THAT WOULD BE THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD. EVER. *hyperventelates*

As for my personal choices ... I find the smarmy Nigel Plumb character in The Rotters' Club strangely endearing, and I think he plays is really well, so a similar role to that would be great. Preferably with the same cool costumes.

How about a period detective series, with Julian as the clever, charming detective

Oooh, even better, he could be an amateur detective, who plays the cello for a living - we could have some musical interludes as well then.

The Cello-Playing Detective - geddit? :lol:

Seriously though, Julian in period costume playing a philandering dandy would be wonderful but I'd quite like to see him play a role that's completely different to anything he's ever done - preferably a straight as opposed to a comic one. I just think he's such a brilliant actor but because he's done a lot of comedy (and played a lot of foppish characters!), people tend to forget that. Take his performance in The Trench, for example - amazing!

god i love that movie he is amazing in it

That is a good point ch1ch1 - he was very very good in The Trench. I am always blethering on about Julian doing more theatre. I know he's done lots in the past, but I've missed it! I'd love to see him in something quite intense...bit of Chekov maybe, or how about playing Iago - that really would be unmissable.

Oh yes! If he did any sort of Shakespeare at all I'd be there like a shot! How about a reading of his sonnets? Mmm... :drool:

Personally, I would like to see him play a mysterious Victorian hypnotist who dresses all in black and has the power to make women do anything. (I'm sure JRT has that power in real life anyway! :wink:

)

This would involve a lot of swirling mist and of course a number of close ups of his lovely blue eyes. :drool:

Oh, how I wish I'd seen him on stage, too - now that would be a treat!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes it's about time he did a bit of theatre. I haven't been to a play for months and a little get together would be lovely - before I forget what you all look like :lol:
