I feel like James Spader would be a good protagonist if a journalist or a scientist. He just popped into my head spontaneously, but I hadn't really given any thought to who would work best. I guess that the most important thing is that they choose good actors rather than simply very popular beautiful stars. Serious actors can do so much to help suspend disbelief, and the suspension of disbelief is difficult to achieve consistently in a giant monster film. I prefer the 1954 uncut version of Godzilla, but I have to say that the 1956 American version was lucky to have Raymond Burr's demeanor and sincerity on its side. I would be happy to see a believable, confidant protagonist like that in our upcoming film.

No.

Also, John Cusack would be a terrible choice.

Morgan Freeman - He can star in any movie, and still fit in perfectly. He's just awesome.

John Krasinski of Office fame would make a great American reporter in Japan. I think he's a great actor, and would love to see him in bigger things like this.

If they try the "old fisherman" character again, a cameo by Haruo Nakajima would just kick massive amounts of ass.
Also, similar to the J.D. Lees look-alike in GINO, Devlin and Emmerich look-alikes getting killed would just make my day. :P

No.... On a more serious note maybe - Samuel L. Jackson, Morgan Freeman, Anthony Hopkins, Jeff Goldblum, any of them i actually wouldn't object being in the new Godzilla film.

Oh boy, Crazy Ralph's back! I thought Jason got 'im back in '81... technically '84... whatever.

I'd like to see some Toho cameos, and I think J. D. Lees deserves one as well... and if it's set in the USA, make the Mayor Emmerich and his lackey Dean ;)
I used to be a lot more optimistic and outgoing, believe it or not. I used to actually be passionate about this stuff.

I don't know how anyone else feels about this, but I'd like Will Smith, he's my favorite actor and he's done great in serious movies before, while also managing to retain an air of comedy to the character he brings. That and he's one of the few actors that play serious roles that I know by name.

I agree that Will Smith would be a great person for this movie, but I hope he would leave most of the comedy out.

Yeah, but I agree. But he's managed to pull fairly serious roles before, like The Persuit of Happyness and iRobot. Just how he delievers his comedy makes it seem really natural, not forced like a lot of comedy in certain series.
