    My only thing for Alcide is that he has to be good looking and fits the character or can play the character really well. I’m so looking foward to this season sounds so cool that they’re introducing new characters but hopefully not too many in one whole season.

  • Tiny

    Henry Cavill is perfect as Alcide.

    • Celia

      Henry Cavill or Tom Welling!!!

  • paula

    what about Lucas Black ..perfect southern accent and real, too

  • Flo

    Hugh Jackman where are you?!

    • Melinda

      Alas, Hugh is a bit too long in the tooth to be Alcide.

  • Melinda

    Has anyone thought about Gille Marini? He’s big and muscular enough, easy on the eyes, could probably morph his French accent into more of a Cajun accent easily enough. Just a thought.

    • Taylor

      I have to admit I never considered Gille Marini but I could definitely see him as a very sexy Alcide!

  • Meg
  • Melinda

    Scott Elrod is closest to the way I’ve envisioned Alcide in the books. Tom Welling might also be able to pull it off. (Based on Tom’s characterization of Clark Kent on Red-Kryptonite)

  • Deion

    Victor Webster anyone? No? Ok.

  • jvanhove@huskers.unl.edu

    I TOTALLY agree with Taylor kitsch!! He is good looking and rough around the edges!

    • Melinda

      Taylor would be a very good choice, but I don’t think he’s big enough.

  • qq

    he’s a bit older, but Adrian Paul of former “Highlander” fame would be excellent. Or Ioan Gryffudd (sic), although he’s a bit slight, but in the looks dept, he knocks me dead!

    • Melinda

      too old, in my opinion

  • Brit

    all I can say is Joe Manganiello would fit Alcide prefectly!

  • Lilly

    Henry Cavill will be the perfect “Alcide”

    • Melinda

      Henry Cavill wouldn’t be bad, but I think he’d really need to bulk up for the part. The books always refer to the Weres as being larger than average.

      • Celia

        Henry IS big. Have you seen him on the Tudors?

      • Melinda

        I have to admit that I have not, I was just judging by the pictures I found online. He’s got the height though.

  • Melinda

    What about Brian Austin Green?

  • fork me

    I’m putting ALL of my money on Alcide being played by Joe Manganiello….. I’m assured of this!! lol

    • Melinda

      I’ve never heard of him, but after looking him up, I think he’s the best I’ve seen so far! 6′ 5″ sounds about right and muscles on muscles looks about right. Yep, he’s my new front-runner!
