I have nothing against Gerard Butler, he's brilliant, but I also feel Nate Parker could have played the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera. Who's with me?

Definitely! I love Gerard Butler, but if they couldn't get him, I think Nathaniel Parker would have made a very nice Phantom.
Question iscan he sing?

(This one is freakishly real looking! It doesn't look fake at all! Is there something the producers aren't telling us? :P)
These were all made by the amazingly talented Elavielevenstar. All due credit goes to her!

You think that's hot? You should check out her Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman and Ralph Fiennes! Still thoughNat still should do it someday. I look at 'Haunted Mansion', 'Far From The Madding Crowd' and 'Vanity Fair' and would just love him to take a whack at it! Then again, I'm kind of hoping that one day he'll also do Jane Eyre. You know, sort of a continuation of his Rochester in 'Wide Sargasso Sea'. Except you knowwhere he keeps his pants on.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who thinks this! I think that he is more suited to a non singing version. He's my personal choice for Erik if they ever decide to make a miniseries of Susan Kay's novel.
The lovely artist and phan, Elavielevenstar made this gorgeous photo manipulation as a favor to me a while back and I thought I'd post it here!

hey guys!
I absolutely adore Gerry Butler, he was a bloody AWSOME phantom but i think if they had not been able to get Gerry that could have had Nate! I know little about him but just seeing his picture before and reading your comments, i think he too would have made a awsome phantom of the opera!!

Hmm..sounds goob68d. Mr Nathaniel was definitely wasted in The Haunted Mansion so the lead in POTO can't be that bad
God's in His Heaven -
All's right with the world!

sure, although I loved Gerard Butler's work. my only curiosity is if Nathaniel can sing? I haven't seen much of his work. but I can imagine him in that role too, sure!
