That guy is too young to play Shane (or Rick).

 

I'm going to assume that whoever they cast to play Rick will be roughly the same age as this guy. Terrible.

 

Rick shouldn't be cast as an early 30-something. He needs to be a little older. He needs to look "experienced". I always have imagined him as more of a 40's-ish character. Not old, but not a spring chicken.

Just got hooked on the graphic novels, I love this series! And the only thing more exciting than this is HBO making a series of of "A Song of Fire and Ice" by George R R Martin.

Rick Grimes???

Nope hIs playing Shane

 

Really? The article states that he is playing Rick Grimes...

 

Jon Bernthal ("The Pacific") has been cast in a lead role. The series revolves around police officer Rick Grimes...

 

 

 

The qoute you used just says he has been cast as a lead character, not the lead character. Apparently Rick Grimes will be Andrew Lincoln from over my way. Who by the way, IMO is a good, charismatic actor.
