[THE_EPISTLE] I've found Hoppy, but not Simon Templar.

Hi Pete,

The role calls for someone who can play suave and sophisticated, preferably with a mid Atlantic accent, but who can also act ruthless and tough, which would rule out Hugh Grant. And by the time this film gets off the ground, if it ever does, he will be too old.  I would also prefer an unknown or little known actor to play the role. A well known actor carries too much baggage and his personality would end up on the screen, not the personality of ST.

I think that you and I want another Roger Moore! :-)

Take care,
