Whats a tosser? Jerk, A-hole, etc...?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Pretty much.

[Archmonarch]

Is Cassidy an effeminate tosser, then?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Heh. Not quite. He's more a

bad-tempered, self-absorbed, conflicted Irish vampire drug addict with loyalty/commitment issues who ultimately comes through for the MC.

I think whoever plays Jesse would have to be some unknown new guy. Really make the character distinctive.

 

I think Colin Farrell could do Cassidy.

Colin Farrel is too pretty. He could totally do the character, he just looks nothing the part.

 

Though it would be entertaining to see him do this:

I'd like to see Guy Pearce in the role, if not just because he's scrawny.

If he can do an irish accent, he'd be awesome.

I think, without going into any spoilers, that Cassidy IS a bit of a lackwit tosser. An absence of anything below the surface could work extremely well.

 

On the subject of Jesse, if I were directing I'd be inclined to take the actor away for about six months and put them through the mill. Hard work, fistfighting, day long drunks. You name it.
