Ledger wasn't some romcom actor...
People complained but Ledger was still a very good actor. Very good with a lot of range going in. Adkins is a mediocre action star at best and just a good fighter type. How are you even comparing?
Ok, I'll indulge this and then I'm out. I'm comparing on the simple basis they are actors who's previous work is used as a reason they can't portray a character. Ledger did mostly romcoms and dramas, not intense psychopaths. He was basically a pretty badboy in most of his work. Good actor yes, but people assumed because that is mostly what he did that's all he could do. It's the same as Adkins and people assuming he can only be a dumb action guy because that's what most of his work called for next to his phenominal fighting work. It's typecasting, asuming because they do one thing mostly, that they can't do another. Only huge difference in that aspect is we all saw ledger, most of you know adkins from one or two very simple roles. So the assumation is even greater. I agree with most of you that Bently is probably the best choice...but in the end dismissing my pick so readily with such a lack of actual knowlege of that pick stinks of ignorant elitism.
