Take or leave most of them except maybe pulp fiction. Was he wanted for Vincent?
shareI think he would probably have made a better, more intense Aragorn than Viggo Mortenson. I'm guessing that's the part he was up for in LOTR.
shareI think your right but Viggo was very good and maybe Daniel would have taken something away from the other actors and made it indirectly more about him rather than the collaboration and story being told
shareYes. He would have outgunned almost everyone else in the cast. Viggo's talents were more in line with the others and made a better blend.
Interview With The Vampire would have been interesting.
shareGlad that Gary Oldman took 'Sid & Nancy', to be honest. He was uncanny in that film.
It's a shame Oldman and DDL never stood eye-to-eye on film. They were set to be co-leads in 'Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead' (1990) but DDL backed out due to burnout. Tim Roth took the role.
