Who'll Grow Accustomed To Her Face?

The My Fair Lady remake has been announced now... though they lost Daniel Day-Lewis to Nine.

The last time we discussed this, the question was who could play the other roles.

Michael Caine and Alfred Molina were mentioned as people that some of you would like to see in the lead. But really, they need someone in their 40s or early 50s so that it's not too gross, I think. I love Bill Nighy, but a bit creepy to have him macking on Keira, no?

Ironically, other actors who would have been right for Nine are really not right for this. George Clooney could act it, but he is a bit too easy to see her fall for.

So who?

Would Crowe consider it? Can Liam Neeson sing? Is Hugh Jackman too hunky? Is Christian Bale uptight enough to overcome his muscle? Not a great Travolta role. Kevin Costner could never do the accent. Gere? Ralph Fiennes? Colin Firth?
