I figure we'll know within a month, so let's put our best guesses forward?

I know who I'd want to see: He'd have been an easy choice some years ago, but I think he just looks too old. |

thought I had time-traveled to 2004 seeing Josh Lucas up there.

McAvoy could be a very good choice.

I may throw some valid names not considered by the poll.
Daniel Craig
Michael Shannon
Josh Brolin
Sean Penn
Edward Norton
The last two names are due for a critical comeback, and especially Norton who is way overdue for an Oscar.

I'd love to see Ryan Gosling but would also be ecstatic if it ended up being Matthew McConaughey or Jake Gyllenhaal.

Josh Brolin.
Or maybe Sean Penn.
I think Bale works for the role, but I don't really see him being cast.

Unless that Ari Aster project moves forward anytime soon, Joaquin Phoenix has an opening until his Napoleon film with Ridley early next year...

Is Tom Hardy no longer on casting lists for parts that can only be played by white guys? I know Capone sucked and he was ridiculous in it, but he is still a thing in prestige Hollywood casting circles.
He's friends with Leo as well, and they've worked well together on two previous occasions. If he isn't shooting something else, he is definitely a strong possibility.

Looove the Edward Norton choice. Plus him & Leo are pretty good friends (maybe Leo could talk Scorsese into it) |

Yeah, I'd have to imagine that Hardy would probably be a top ten casting director choice for the role. He's currently still one of the top names in the industry, and you regularly still hear his name mentioned when it comes to large major roles in big features. Capone may have been a mess, but Venom was a hit, and he’s still a recent nominee too. I doubt he plays Tom White, but I have no doubt his name was likely thrown around as a potential possibility for the role. |

Even The Revenant allegedly only came to him after people like DDL, Wock, Fassbender, Penn, etc. passed or had scheduling conflicts. |

Even The Revenant allegedly only came to him after people like DDL, Wock, Fassbender, Penn, etc. passed or had scheduling conflicts. I never said Hardy was a first choice thing in prestige casting circles. But he's seen as a strong and well regarded actor who is a respectable option first or second choices pass or can't do it. We live in a world where Armie Hammer gets cast for lead roles in Rebecca or The Godfather TV show (The making of), which are prestige projects on a certain level. Hardy is definitely up for projects on that level as well. |

From what I remember, there used to be an open forum with movie insiders where they regularly exchanged scripts and movie news before it was reported in the trades. It was discussed there that Day-Lewis and Phoenix were on Inarritu's wishlist after Penn became unavailable. Not sure if they were ever actually in talks. The forum has since been hidden so only registered users can see the posts there (if it even exists anymore). |

I don't think he's considered poison or anything, but I would choke on my coffee if I woke up, pulled up Deadline, and saw that Tom Hardy got a lead of a Scorsese/Spielberg/Lynch/Tarantino/Coens/Fincher/etc. film. Armie Hammer is a fair comp, I'll grant you. |

I can't find it anymore, and I've looked fairly diligently. If it still exists, it's an email chain with a very small circle now as opposed to a Google Group. |
