"I was just wondering because a person who was already a veteran of the stage."

What did the person do? You didn't complete your thought.

What? He meant because Victor Garber is a 'veteran of the stage' and was in the movie, it seems fitting that he would be asked to play the role.

I get what you're both saying (qolbinau and millie) but to be fair, if you a completely different poster has to explain it than the OP failed.

And the answer to the original question: absolutely not. never.

Yeah, the good stage.

Actually, to be fair... it wasn't a difficult post to understand and the inability to comprehend the post says more about the smart a$$ responses people make than it does about the post.

Anyway... it make sense to wonder about such casting with Garber's stage background, but imo while he would have done a fine job, I do think that the casting would have been uncreative and too obvious.

Yes, I knew the OP was saying that (per the original post), just being sarcastic based on the wording second post.

This is one of the times when I think the "smartass" responses are not out of line. Yes, I find the ones in response to a single typo or grammatical mistake a little annoying, but when the OP clearly can't be bothered to use punctuation, let alone complete sentences, then I say bring on the snark.

Put the bitchiness away, girls.

If Victor Garber HAD performed the role on Broadway, would this have been the first time an actor created a film role and THEN the Broadway role? Or has it happened before?

There are lots of instances where an actor originated a role on Broadway, then got to reprise it in a film. But are there any examples in reverse?
