Film adaptation of Thief: The Dark Project

Garrett
Master thief, misanthropic loner, cynical, jaded, sardonic and professional. Best in the biz.

Casting choice: Christian Bale

Constantine
Engimatic and eccentric noble who moves to the city and hires Garrett to steal a one of a kind artifact locked away in a cursed material. More than he seems.

Casting choice: Anthony Hopkins

Viktoria
Thief's pawn that contacts Garrett for Constantine. Seems to have connections with the Order of the Vine.

Damn it.

[On a Pale Horse]

It was an old thread, easy to miss. I just happened to remember that one because I liked it. Plus I think there's a funny version of it somewhere where you make a ridiculous cast for a remake of a movie. Maybe that was the old board though.
