The role of the tragic hero suit him very well:) I will vote to! :) Richard Armitage will be perfect as an Austen hero but I also thing he will be perfect as Rochester in the new adaption of Jane Eyre.

I guess 35 year old Colin Firth was a little old to be playing a 27 or 28 year old Darcy and we didn’t complain about that.

Some of us did…

@ #71:

Never managed to get hold of Sparkhouse although I keep my eyes open for repeats on TV - for obvious reasons!

I read about this on C-19 last week and wondered when it would show up on Austenblog. :) I totally agree that RA is the correct and obvious choice for the role of Knightley. How could they possibly cast anyone else??!!! LoveGgemma Arterton and think she has the right mix for Emma. I can totally see her verbally sparring with RA. What a great adaptation that would make! And admit it ladies, how many of us are giddy at the idea of RA dancing at the Crown Ball??!! Oh yeah... Hah!
