THE FALLEN--the movie
April 11, 2010
Who do I think would make a great Derek Stillwater if a film were made? I give my thoughts on that at My Book, The Movie blog. Check it out and share your opinion.
Cheers,

I'd nominate Viggo Mortensen.
He is probably best known for playing Aragorn in the Rings Trilogy. I first saw him in "A Walk on the Moon" (an interesting indie move set in the Catskills during the summer of Woodstock and the first lunar landing) and most recently in "Eastern Promises" (where he plays a Russian mobster in contemporary London who is actually a undercover agent for the FSB, successor to the KGB).
He'd be an interesting choice. I think Viggo's a great actor (and needs better scripts), although I haven't seen Eastern Promises yet, I have seen him in TLOR, of course, and in History of Violence and a couple other things. He could do it, for sure.
There were a lot of rumors that he was going to play Reacher in a film based on Lee Child's books, but I don't think anything's come of it. Lee's books have been compared to mine (or vice versa, I guess) and I could see Viggo in that role.
