by matthew-pandolfo | created - 04 Mar 2015 | updated - 04 Mar 2015 | PublicFu
1. Aaron Paul
Actor | Breaking Bad
Aaron Paul was born Aaron Paul Sturtevant in Emmett, Idaho, to Darla (Haynes) and Robert Sturtevant, a retired Baptist minister. While growing up, Paul took part in church programs, and performed in plays.
He attended Centennial High School in Boise, Idaho. It was there, in eighth grade, that Aaron ...
Edward Elric He proved his acting chops in Breaking Bad and demonstrated he could do action in Need for Speed. Plues, he's short enough.
2. Josh Hutcherson
Actor | The Hunger Games
Joshua Ryan Hutcherson was born on October 12, 1992 in Union, Kentucky to Michelle Fightmaster, who worked for Delta Air Lines, and Chris Hutcherson, an EPA analyst. He has one younger brother, Connor Hutcherson. From the age of four, Josh knew that he wanted to be an actor. In order to pursue his ...
Alphonse Elric This would mostly be a voice-over role, but for the times we do see Al Hutcherson looks young enough to play the younger brother of Paul.
3. Mads Mikkelsen
Actor | Hannibal
Mads Mikkelsen's great successes parallel those achieved by the Danish film industry since the mid-1990s. He was born in Østerbro, Copenhagen, to Bente Christiansen, a nurse, and Henning Mikkelsen, a banker.
Starting out as a low-life pusher/junkie in the 1996 success Pusher (1996), he slowly grew ...
Lt. Roy Mustang (Choice 1) Mikkelsen looks old enough to be a superior of Arron Paul, he has the perfect look, and he's proved that he's a fantastic actor through Hannibal, The Hunt, and Casino Royale. However, he may be too old to convincingly play the young lieutenant.
4. Benedict Cumberbatch
Actor | The Imitation Game
Benedict Timothy Carlton Cumberbatch was born and raised in London, England. His parents, Wanda Ventham and Timothy Carlton (born Timothy Carlton Congdon Cumberbatch), are both actors. He is a grandson of submarine commander Henry Carlton Cumberbatch, and a great-grandson of diplomat Henry Arnold ...
Lt. Roy Mustang (Choice 2) If Mikkelsen proves to be too old, Cumberbatch is another fantastic actor who could fill the role. However, he may be too close in age to Aaron Paul.
5. Hugh Jackman
Actor | Les Misérables
Hugh Michael Jackman is an Australian actor, singer, multi-instrumentalist, dancer and producer. Jackman has won international recognition for his roles in major films, notably as superhero, period, and romance characters. He is best known for his long-running role as Wolverine in the X-Men film ...
Furher King Bradley/ Wrath
Jackman has proved that he's not only a great action star but also a great actor. He's also, well, jacked and could convincingly portray Bradley's action scenes. He may not appear old enough, but I'm sure some makeup could fix that.
6. Liam Neeson
Actor | Kinsey
Liam Neeson was born on June 7, 1952 in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, to Katherine (Brown), a cook, and Bernard Neeson, a school caretaker. He was raised in a Catholic household. During his early years, Liam worked as a forklift operator for Guinness, a truck driver, an assistant architect and an ...
Van Hoenheim/Father
Neeson has proved that he's still very much in the action game. He is also an exemplary actor and could portray the mysterious father figure perfectly.
7. Eva Green
Actress | Casino Royale
French actress and model Eva Gaëlle Green was born on July 6, 1980, in Paris, France. Her father, Walter Green, is a dentist who appeared in the 1966 film Au hasard Balthazar (1966). Her mother, Marlène Jobert, is an actress turned children's book writer. Eva's mother was born in Algeria, of French...
Lust Green is a good actress. Bout those eyes though! THOSE EYES!
8. Andy Serkis
Actor | War for the Planet of the Apes
English film actor, director and author Andy Serkis is known for his performance capture roles comprising motion capture acting, animation and voice work for such computer-generated characters as Gollum in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy (2001-2003) and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012), ...
Gluttony Gluttony would definitely have to be a motion capture role and for that there's no one better.
9. Benicio Del Toro
Actor | Sicario
Benicio Del Toro emerged in the mid-1990s as one of the most watchable and charismatic character actors to come along in years. A favorite of film buffs, Del Toro gained mainstream public attention as the conflicted but basically honest Mexican policeman in Steven Soderbergh's Traffic (2000).
...
Greed Although he may appear a bit too old, Del Toro could definitely play Greed before he assumes Ling's body. After that, he would simply be providing the voice.
10. Asa Butterfield
Actor | Hugo
Asa Butterfield was born in Islington, London, England, to Jacqueline Farr and Sam Butterfield. He began acting at the age of 8, after a talent spotting casting director saw him at his local after school drama club, The Young Actors Theatre in Islington. Following on from a couple of small roles in...
Selim Bradley/ Pride
In the film, Selim would undoubtedly have to be written older for the sake of having a good actor. Asa appeared young enough in Ender's Game and has demonstrated that he's an actor of surprising versatility.
11. Emma Stone
Actress | La La Land
Emily Jean "Emma" Stone was born on November 6, 1988 in Scottsdale, Arizona to Krista Jean Stone (née Yeager), a homemaker & Jeffrey Charles "Jeff" Stone, a contracting company founder and CEO. She is of Swedish, German & British Isles descent. Stone began acting as a child as a member of the ...
Winry Rockwell
Emma stone has developed her acting ability over the past few years and has shown that she could convincingly portray the Elric's childhood friend.

His father, from Amherst, Nova Scotia, Canada, is black (of Black Nova ...
Alex Louis Armstrong
He's got the guns, he's got the smile.
13. Lauren Cohan
Actress | The Boy
Lauren Cohan is a British-American actress and model, best known for her role as Maggie Greene on The Walking Dead (2010) and recurring roles on The Vampire Diaries (2009), Supernatural (2005), and Chuck (2007). After her film debut on Casanova (2005) as Sister Beatrice, she starred in the sequel ...
Cohan has shown that she can do action through The Walking Dead. She also exudes confidence and can portray the down-to-earth nature of Riza.
14. Michael Fassbender
Actor | Shame
Michael Fassbender is an Irish actor who was born in Heidelberg, Germany, to a German father, Josef, and an Irish mother, Adele (originally from Larne, County Antrim, in Northern Ireland). Michael was raised in the town of Killarney, Co. Kerry, in south-west Ireland, where his family moved to when ...
Jean Havoc A small role, but one in which I believe Fassbender would fit perfectly.
15. Joel Edgerton
Actor | The Gift
Joel Edgerton was born on June 23, 1974 in Blacktown, New South Wales, Australia, to Marianne (van Dort) and Michael Edgerton, who is a solicitor and property developer. His brother is filmmaker Nash Edgerton. His mother is a Dutch immigrant. Joel went to Hills Grammar School in the Western Suburbs...
Maes Hughes
The perfect age to have a young family, Edgerton has demonstrated his acting chops in Warrior and The Great Gatsby. He has just the right balance of bad and good to portray Hughes.
16. Zoe Saldana
Actress | Avatar
Zoe Saldana was born on June 19, 1978 in Passaic, New Jersey, to Asalia Nazario and Aridio Saldaña. Her father was Dominican and her mother is Puerto Rican. She was raised in Queens, New York. When she was 10 years old, she and her family moved to the Dominican Republic, where they would live for ...
Someone who can equal The Rock , Zoe Saldana has proved herself an action star in Guardians of the Galaxy.
17. Tom Hiddleston
Actor | The Avengers
Thomas William Hiddleston was born in Westminster, London, to English-born Diana Patricia (Servaes) and Scottish-born James Norman Hiddleston. His mother is a former stage manager, and his father, a scientist, was the managing director of a pharmaceutical company. He started off at the preparatory ...
Solf J. Kimblee
A diverse actor, Hiddleston fits the role of Kimblee perfectly. Just think of Loki, but with alchemy. Plus, that smile! THAT SMILE!
18. Christoph Waltz
Actor | Django Unchained
Christoph Waltz is an Austrian-German actor. He is known for his work with American filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, receiving acclaim for portraying SS-Standartenführer Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds (2009) and bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz in Django Unchained (2012). For each performance, he won...
Shau Tucker
Just deranged enough to play the state-alchemist-gone-bad
19. John Hurt
Actor | Nineteen Eighty-Four
One of stage, screen and TV's finest transatlantic talents, slight, gravel-voiced, pasty-looking John Vincent Hurt was born on January 22, 1940, in Shirebrook, a coal mining village, in Derbyshire, England. The youngest child of Phyllis (Massey), an engineer and one-time actress, and Reverend ...
Tim Marcoh
He's just John Hurt. Enough said.
20. Michael Gambon
Actor | Gosford Park
Sir Michael Gambon was born in Cabra, Dublin, Ireland, to Mary (Hoare), a seamstress, and Edward Gambon, an engineer. After joining the National Theatre, under the Artistic Directorship of Sir Laurence Olivier, Gambon went on to appear in a number of leading roles in plays written by Alan Ayckbourn...
Father Cornello
A small role, but one in which it would be fun to see Gambon. He can transition easily between happy, fuzzy priest to dark brooding cult leader.
21. Lee Byung-hun
Actor | Dalkomhan insaeng
Lee Byung-hun was born in 1970 in Seoul, South Korea, and grew up in a wealthy family, thanks to his father, who was a successful businessman. He never dreamed of pursuing acting until a friend of his mother's suggested it. He auditioned for the KBS television network in 1991 and was accepted. His ...
