Gilliam is working on it (again)

[cclark]

If Gilliam has to recast Quixote, who would you all like to see? Somebody on the IMDb message board mentioned Daniel Day-Lewis for the role.

I have to say that no matter who is finally cast for the role, John Hurt was the one I had hoped for (even back when Robert Duvall was cast as Quixote). Here's hoping he recovers soon, regardless of whomever steps into the role.

Update: John Hurt given all-clear on cancer

Update 2:

Speaking to BBC Radio Norfolk, Hurt's agent agent Charles Macdonald has since clarified: "Sir John has been given very good news by his oncologist but it falls short of an all-clear. Nonetheless it's very good news."

Here's hoping he gets an "all-clear" soon.
