Josh Brolin for sure, first actor to pop in my head.

josh brolin is the quintisential cowboy, IMHO atleast.
another guy is ofcourse Kurt Russell. i cant really put one infront of the other, they both seems pretty perfect for the part. only thing is that brolin is age-perfect, but Russell has aged pretty well.

josh brolin would actually be a pretty good choice, since they have kind of the same look and macho voice

Russell Crowe. Brad Pitt's too pretty, Jim Caviezel doesn't fit, and although Hugh Jackman might work, he's already done this kind of role so many times.
Although Crowe did 3:10 To Yuma, I still think he'd kick serious ass as Marston.
Don't try to cash in love, that check will always bounce.

Mike Madsen would be good, although I think he may be in his late 40s/early 50s now. His voice sounds like Marston's anyway. Josh Brolin would be better as Jack Marston IMO.

Russel Crowe would would be cool but Hugh Jackman would actualy be kinda good he kinda has a scruffy look like John Marston or Josh Brolin. Oh and I know this thread is mainly for John but for Nigel West Dickens I kinda see the guy who voiced him being able to do it ok he of course has the same voice but he kinda looks like him

what do u all think about Viggo Mortensen

Timmian — 15 years ago(March 14, 2011 04:35 PM)

i think hes too skinny. he got a good beard-face though, but i saw him in appaloosa(sp?) and i didnt buy him as a cowboy.
so thats a vote of no confidence on my part.

I haven't seen Appaloosa but he was superb in Hidalgo, though.

For all those who like the idea of Karl Urban as Marston (he was my first choice as well, but I do like the idea of Brolin)

Christian Bale is also another ideal Marston.

id prefer bale as Solid Snake

Good idea.
BTW, I think I heard that the producers were actually considering Brad Pitt for the role of John Marston. Think I heard that on GameSpot.

Brad Pitt as Marston would be pretty awful.
Okay, that's a bit unfair maybe, but when there are other actors so much better suited to the role the idea of Pitt playing Marston just loses all appeal

Jaoquin Phoenix as Marsden and Daniel Day Lewis as the antagonist. That would be the beep
