I always thought that Ken Curtis (Festus on Gunsmoke) looked somewhat like Hitler.

How about Friedrich G. Beckhaus as Sepp Dietrich. Beckhaus played as Heinrich Mueller in Die Wannseekonferenz (1984, Infafilm).

James Woods is such a good actor he would be good playing ANYONE but Kaltenbrunner would be really up his alley. Di Caprio,at one time could have played Heydrich, but he is nearing 40, although with makeup and trickss,he might just do it. I have it on good authority that the role intrigues him.
My book CHECKMATE: THE ENIGMA OF REINHARD HEYDRICH deals with Heydrich's ascent from a sweet, nice altar boy, a Catholic boy, top of his class in everything, sports, classics, science, music, who became the most feared man in Europe at the age of 25.
All the choice for actors are really good. We need a good looking and bright Lina Heydrich. in my book Reinhard Gehlenplays an important role,as do Arthur Nebe Carl von Eberstein,
Please visit my site:http://isabellavacani.blogspot.com
My blog on current events ranks 5% out of 200 million blogs.
I have posted a whole blog on Heydrich and have also posted a few chapters. From my analysis and commentaries that,I think will be of assistance in undertanding WWII; Heydrich and all the 4 very flawed (God Help us) leaders - Hitler, Stalin, Churhill and Roosevelt.
Thank you for taking the time to show photographs and give me suggestions.
As ever,
Roxelana - Isabella Vacani von Fechtmann

Hi, I've been curious about the photographs that you've said. Are they important for you to see or to have? Make up and tricks were used to hide signs of aging.

For the role of Heydrich (If it could be),I choose one woman,Amy Winehouse.

And the Russian actor, Gosha Kutsenko, would be at his right place here, too.)

Am I the only one to think that Roger Bart looks a little bit like... herr Mrugowsky?))
Anyway... I think him to be a perfect candidate for the role of that impressive man.
