If a movie of the series were to be made

General Discussion
This is for all the books, bear in mind the child acotrs would grow up

Nat - As much as I loathe him I think Robert Patterson could Ptolmeys Gate well, to old for the other two books though
Voice of Barti- Rowan Atkinson or Colin Farrel (No two actors do sarcasm better IMO)
Kitty- ???
voice of Faquarl- Sean Bean
Lovlace- Hugh Lawrie
Deveraux- Matthew Newton
Jane Farrar- Keira Knightly or Emma Watson
Makepeace- Matt Lucas (has a history of serious acting so he would be suiteable)
Duvall- Daniel Craig
Whitwell- Dame Judy Dench (pictured whitwell as dench the moment I read a bout her)

These are just some ideas other characters would be good talk about to

The voice of Nouda is clearly BRIAN BLESSED. That is all.

Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes.

Also, BRIAN BLESSED would be a perfect Nouda, Sent =D

Though I do think Stephen Fry would be a decent Makepeace (and Stephen Fry with BRIAN BLESSED's voice would be incredibly awesome).

Most of those aren't too bad actually.

But I doubt Daniel Craig could fit the werewolf Duvall.

Hugh Laurie as Lovelace for me is not the best choice.

Kitty probably would indeed be an unknown actor casted.

I agree there actually; Fry would be an awesome Makepeace.

Word.

Also, Dench is a perfect Whitwell.

I'd prefer a thinner Christian Bale as Lovelace, but I can see Hugh Laurie playing it very well, likewise with Daniel Craig.
Nice list.
As much as I like Judy Dench, she's a little old for me for Whitewell.

Steve Coogan would work nicely :)
For some reason, I want a section of the imp playing a Gilbert Godfried voice.
Some cameo to something else...
"What do I look like, some talking parrot?"
-referring to Aladdin-
I like him, so something like that.

Yeah, Godfried would be good in a part too.

NO.

I think this one can work.

Never really thought much into who I'd like to see in the movie, but I've always imagined Farqual as sounding like this guy.

Faquarl has always sounded like Sean Bean to me and after rown atkinson was the first i put down

I actually think a movie would defeat the funnyness of everything. Most of the very best parts are the thoughts of Bartimaeus, and trying to include that would be... um... difficult.
they would be difficult to implement but this is a hypothetical who do you picture as x type of thing.

TBH I just wanted to see if people agreed with me about dench and bean

I haven't read this books in years, but is Lovelace the guy who dresses or acts like a pimp or is that the PM?

Either way, Hugh Jackman must play one of them. Preferably wearing something like this:

Dancing girls optional.
He's got the Lovelace teeth in that pic.

Also, the return of Kian! He will never be too old to don a hat with a feather and play Nat in my head!!
