Just wanted to post this and see if anyone had any new information on the movie. I know they have a director and a writer and that Russel Crow is supposed to be Robert. Just wondering if you'll could just keep me, and all of us, updated.

Rusel Crowe is Robert? That's been finalized?

When is the filming of this movie supposed to begin? Does it have any sort of website yet? I hope they don't destroy the book...

Pretend you are a Hollywood casting director. How would you cast the movie?

BTW, according to IMDB, the movie director is Ron Howard and the screenplay was/will be written by Akiva Goldsman, both of A Beautiful Mind fame. It'd be intriguing if Russell Crowe was cast as Robert, although he is not listed on IMDB. No one seems to have been cast yet. Anyway, here is the link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382625/

Trying to answer my own question... what do y'all think of Rachel Weisz for Sophie?

I don't really think that Crowe would make the best Langdon. I don't know who I would cast, if I had a choice. I do think that Rachel Weisz would be a good choice for Sophie. The only thing that I can see being a bigger challenge than keeping with the integrity of Brown's writing is finding a big albino actor to play Silas. Makeup just wouldn't do it for that. Whoever is writing the screenplay should make sure to consult with Brown, too many movies have been ruined by the transition from book to film. Example: The original Jurrasic Park screenplay was written with Michael Crichton consulting and was as true to the novel as any adaptation I have seen. After the first movie, however, Crichton was being phased out and the movies just went downhill.

Yeah, the first Jurassic Park was such a good movie. Then came 2 and 3 which totaly sucked, to be blunt  .

Movies.com also has a listing which rumors that Kate Beckinsale is going to play Sophie (a poor choice in my opinion).
Who would I choose?
Robert=Rob Schneider ("You can do it!")
JUST KIDDING.
Actually Crowe might be okay. But Beckinsale? She doesn't seem the type to me. How about Catherine Bell. (hubba hubba)
I picture a Robert Langdon in my head but I can't think of an actor that looks the way I imagine him. To me he is about 40ish, with wavy brown hair that is short, but not too short (much longer than a military cut). He has an intelligent looking face and a thin body. He is strong but not "built." He might wear sandles with Khaki's and a loose button up shirt in the summer. A blazer in the winter, or a turtleneck sweater with the sleeves slightly rolled up and tucked in to a pair of corderoys.
We'll see.
