Dad's Army remake.
Discussion
Not sure about this one. The original cast defined the characters.
I guess the challenge will be bringing the characters to life without simply copying Lowe, Le Mesurier et al. Bill Nighy is in the frame as Sgt Wilson which makes sense, but if Russell Brand turns up as Pte Frazer it'll confirm my suspicions that this is going to be a bit ropey. Not sure who else is involved yet. Off the top of my head I reckon Simon Pegg could make a good Pte Pike.
Don't tell him your name Pike

How about (medical insurance and availability for filming dependent) just for fun.
Sean Connery to play Pte Frazier.
Anthony Hopkins to play Pte Cheeseman.
Roger Moore as Pte Godfrey.
Michael Caine as Pte Walker
Michael Gambon as Cpl Jones.
Leslie Philips as Sgt Wilson.
Rowan Atkinson as Cpt Mainwaring (he has gone grey and is the right age now)
Plus someone who looks younger than they are to play Pike, Daniel Radcliffe?

Any suggestion of Russell Brand messing about with dear old Dad's Army will see me with FourWheelDrift said:
