Harrison Ford or Tom Selleck are two good older choices. Gary Sinise is fine. Thomas Kretschmann. Stefan Skarsgard. Eric Bana.

B.) I think the actors veiws should mirror Ayn Rand's.

No brainer! Who is...John Voight!
Should be flattered & do it on the cheap because the cause & message is righteous!

Penn Jillete? Gary Busey ? Dennis Miller ? Chuck Norris ? Jon Voight ?

Rand Paul, of course

Jim Caviezel. Perfect. He has the strength and presence to pull it off.

Benedict Cumberbach is a fantastic choice because he is the only actor with the intensity, gravitas and skill to play such a part.

I'm leaning toward Josh Brolin - Simon Baker, Jim Caviezel, Christian Bale and Daniel Day Lewis are also great suggestions

Jon Voight would be my vote.

ok..here goes...the guy who plays FINCH..michael emerson from the show person of intrest..he is perfect i think..

Hugo Wallace Weaving. He has aptly demonstrated a wonderful ability to deliver massive, intelligent dialogue with power, poise and precision (V for Vendetta, Cloud Atlas, etc.). That is, after all, what John Galt does the most of, isn't it? May need a make up artist to pretty him up a bit but my personal opinion is he would be a best option for the role.

im in favor of Timothy Olyphant too, or charlie hunnam from 'the edge' or 'sons of anarchy'

Tony Goldwyn might be a perfect fit.
He is a seasoned actor and recognizable.
He is 53 years old and could really pull it off.

Daniel Craig would be awesome. He has the steely no-nonsense attitude, good looks and a good hold of characters like this. His father, was a merchant seaman turned steel erector so there is personal knowledge of metals manufacturing in his family past for character reference.

Jeff goldblom

Michael Fassbender who played David in Prometheus. He has the look, features, and style to pull this roll off.

morgan freeman

James Rosen

almost anybody would be better than the let down we had in the change of actors from I to II. The original cast was best, find a Galt that fits who is tall and can act. Liberals need not apply!

Agree ken wehr

I would like to see someone who can express the philosophy in film and perhaps has done so in real life. Oliphant could pull it off. Dennis Miller probably too old but could kick-----..

Dan Stevens, who played Matthew Crawley in Downton Abbey.

Tim Olyphant would be a good choice as well.

simple...Jeremy Irons why...see this
