I suspect amongst British commentators it will prove to be one of the more controversial casting decisions, although as far as I can gather most Americans don't know who he is.<br /><br />It's also worth noting that HBO also took one of the amusing bit-part priests from FATHER TED and turned him into Lucius 'MFer' Vorenus, so they're pretty good as this sort of thing. We'll see how it goes.Adam Whiteheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383677312079611311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-71748050145932833972010-07-17T21:31:44.735+00:002010-07-17T21:31:44.735+00:00(swing and a miss anony-mouse poster here) Ah but ...(swing and a miss anony-mouse poster here) Ah but I'd already been "shocked" in to seeing "Lovejoy" as a totally different person/actor after watching Sexy Beast, before Deadwood. But again, I really hope I'm wrong, and the fact he's spent most of his post Soldier Soldier career in theatre should bode well. hERE'S HOPING!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-26989311287479692952010-07-17T17:11:23.060+00:002010-07-17T17:11:23.060+00:00epic casting. although im not sure about jerome fl...epic casting. although im not sure about jerome flynn though. i guess its going to be another wait and see thing. god hoping he pulls a heath ledger and wows us all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-75667004476956350072010-07-17T16:32:00.581+00:002010-07-17T16:32:00.581+00:00I'm going to assume that his audition was real...I'm going to assume that his audition was really good. Britain and Ireland aren't exactly lacking in 25-45-year-old actors who can nail a dubious, dangerous but charismatic scoundrel (Richard Armitage for a start, whilst Dominic West was also suggested but far too big for the role now).<br /><br />But yeah, based on his performance in SOLDIER SOLDIER alone, I wouldn't have picked him for this role. I'd probably have gone for Robson Green, who at least has done a few darker, more nuanced roles in his time.<br /><br />I'm hoping he blows us away though. It's not as far a stretch as Lovejoy playing a prostitute-beating barman in a dark and gritty Western and that worked out ;-)Adam Whiteheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383677312079611311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-59616217056835940892010-07-17T14:43:56.564+00:002010-07-17T14:43:56.564+00:00I hope I'm wrong and that he really nails the ...I hope I'm wrong and that he really nails the part, but Jerome Flynn is the first big standout "Swing and a miss" casting decision for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-53325748191156467192010-07-17T14:32:11.174+00:002010-07-17T14:32:11.174+00:00Jerome Flynn...what a joke.Jerome Flynn...what a joke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
