I've never found DiCaprio quite as attractive as others seem to have, but he's such a talented actor. I could see him translating well to stage.
Daniel Craig, on the other hand? Be still my heart! Interesting that he and Kidman are looking to do something together... I guess that means they enjoyed working together on The Golden Compass (which I'm so excited to see).

I realize he's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's hard to deny the man has talent. He's nuanced, skilled, and charismatic. I think the transition would be smoother then say Julia Roberts.
I for one would love to see this come to fruition.

HOT DAMN!
This sounds absolutely incredible. Can't wait.

Am I the only one who is more excited about the play itself coming back to broadway regardless of who is in it?
Am I the only person on here who likes/knows this work?

I saw a staged reading of Pavlo Hummel at the Public a year or so ago (I think Philip Seymour Hoffman directed it) . I brought my mom, who saw the Pacino version in Boston when she was a teenager.
I'm definitely excited to see a fully staged version. I think DiCaprio would actually be decent in the role as well.

ugh, Denzel. swoon
I would be curious to see Leo's stage presence. I agree that he will probably need to develop his stage tech a little bit. Sometimes he has a tendency to under-speak a little (thats not even a real word but I hope you know what I mean), but maybe he's grown out of that now.
well, if he makes it to broadway maybe he will start giving out actual autographs instead of preprints :o)

*bump*
What ever happened with this? I remembered it the other night and wondered if I was just imagining it all. I'm not a fan of the Leo from the 90's, but I've enjoyed his latest work much more and couldn't wait to see it. Anything said lately about it?

Posted: 10/8/08 at 5:51pmI'm more anxious to see Daniel Craig on stage! I find him to intriguing and a great actor.
