So, pretty funny side note: Starz is going to be broadcasting
Camelot, yet another Arthurian, in 2011. You can watch a first look
here. I think it has a lot of potential.
One of their big coups was landing Eva Green to play Morgan, their combined version of morally ambiguous witch Morgan Le Fay and her outright evil sister Morgause. Eva Green, of course, was cast as Yva Darrows Balthasar several pages back in this thread. Apparently, we're not the only ones who think she makes a good ethics-challenged sorceress. Now it turns out that James Purefoy, the go-to British character actor for good-looking, sword-swinging douchebags, is guest starring in 2 or 3 episodes as King Lot of Orkney, Arthur's first great adversary - and Morgan's husband. Mr. Purefoy was my pick to play Jak.
So yeah. That's weird.
