Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
Michael Sheen is one of my all time favourite actors & one of the best working atm and I thought he was great as Aro. Any teeny niggles I had were to do with the script, not his portayal. He was perfect for Aro.

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
For those who haven't seen it, here's Michael on Top Gear in Novmember, just after he flew back to London after the New Moon premere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8kfUPPJZhA

On BBC America, you can see that whole episode of Top Gear next Monday night a 9:00, though the interview was edited due to time constraints compared to the original BBC 2 version, and I felt that you guys should see the whole thing if you want it. Pretty good interview, and not a half bad laptime around the track(I believe that it's in or near the overall top ten on their lap board).

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
In most ways, Michael Sheen is perfect. He plays the part in a way that is pretty disturbing and that fits with what I have of Aro in my head. He's slightly eccentric, with a lust for the life he has. He's excited to find new souvenirs and protects what he feels needs to be protected. All in all like a said ever so slightly disturbing.
The only problem I have with it is I keep seeing Tony Blair (when he played him in the film The Queen) when he's on screen, and I keep expecting him to morph into Blair

Who thinks he looks like a young Hugo Weaving and Jason Issacs all rolled in one?

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
I have one thing to say.
You think Aro is scary? Try Michael in a really tight TRON suit looking David Bowie. That's scary.

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
And it should be said that Mike's back as Aro in BD part 2. I've seen him in Frost/Nixon and New Moon, and is impressive in both films. I also saw him on Top Gear a while back, and he seems in person to be kind and witty. No wonder why in England and America he's an actor in demand.

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
^^^That was really good news. If for some reason he wouldn't have been back for BD I would have been TICKED. He was AMAZING as Aro!! For me he made the Volturi scene. I haven't seen any of his other movies (I might see the new Tron. Not sure though.) But I loved him as Aro. To me he is Aro.

A re-run of it was on the BBC last night...I had so much fun watching him....I honestly can't believe he can go from the joking guy to Aro in a short make-up session...it's unbelievable...

Re: Michael Sheen as Aro
Yes, he is such a versatile actor! I was surprised to learn a couple of days ago that he voiced the white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland.marielle wrote:Chernaudi wrote:For those who haven't seen it, here's Michael on Top Gear in Novmember, just after he flew back to London after the New Moon premere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8kfUPPJZhA

I enjoy A LOT the way he portrays Aro, he makes him so creepy.
