James McAvoy. I think he could pull Wil of really well.

I say Anderson Cooper. hehe
Seriously, I have no idea. An unknown who can act would be good for me.

I would say either Ben Barnes (Prince Caspian) or William Mosely (Prince Caspian and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe)
The Road Goes Ever On......so remember it is not the Destination but the Journey that is important.

Keep in mind, he's young, but not too young. The impression I got was around his early 20's. As it was with Eretria, the entire time I was reading Wil's part of the story, I had an actor in my head already. Jonathan Rhys Myers. He's got a slight Irish accent, which I think might suit the valeman.

John seems like he would do ok. but I can't picture him being someone like Wil after seeing him in The Tudors and August Rush. Ben Barnes seems to masculine to me to play Wil but he could probably do it if he played a character like he did in Stardust, James Macavoy could probably pull it off. If I picked anyone to play Wil it would be... maybe chris pine. i don't know it seems like most actors nowadays are to older looking in my mind to play a part like Wil's. He always seemed younger to me and fresh and full of life, yet somewhat innocent... That's a toughie to pick his actor.

I think Wil must be around 20, so i was thinking about someone younger, like Jeremy Sumpter, who had played Peter Pan, 4 years ago.

Just cuz something always bad happened to him in American Pie, and bad stuff always happened to Wil: thus, perfection.

I know that is probably just a bad picture but if Wil looked anything like that in the movie, all children will run away screaming...and also will be protecting their pies, lol.
But seriously that photo makes him look like the Joker without the green hair.

How about say you're sorry for giving any and all people who gaze upon that picture to forever have nightmares?

If he ever becomes the replacement Joker, that is the day I stop watching Batman movies all together.

Hmm. That's a good pic of Jeremy Sumpter. He just seems a little bit more Shea or Parr to me.
Barnes, in my opinion, does not have the look at all for Wil. Moseley is closer but... not sure... Here's a pic:

Wil is Chris Pine but thats my opinion. I like his voice for Wil, and he's cute and has blue pretty eyes..lol.
here's the website to look at a few of his pics...

Pine is kind of a nice find but he looks so old, IMO.
A good thing about Moseley is that he's only 21.
And Rachel Hurd-Wood (my Amberle pick) is only 18.
That'd be a nice young cast, IMO.

Lady, you dont like Rone, do you? (Not to get off subject).
I do agree that Peter Pevensie could make a good Wil, if he starts learning how to act better. While he was much better in Caspian than in LWW, he still isn't quite there, in my opinion, yet.
