ETHAN CURTIS REVEALED



This cover is not my favorite, and sometimes I wonder why I made him blond, but despite all of that, Ethan Curtis of MILLIONAIRE'S CALCULATED BABY BID, is one of my favorite characters of all time. He's cruel, damaged, but at his core, he's desperate to be loved. My favorite type of hero...
When I write a character, I usually have someone in mind - as in, "Who would play this guy in a movie."
But this time around, I didn't.
I don't know why, maybe he was just so crystal clear to me from the get go.
At any rate, I thought we could play a little game today and see who you all think should play our man Ethan in the movie version of MCBB.


First up we have PAUL BETTANY. Don't think of him in DaVinci Code, with all that red eyes and chalky skin - that will just throw you off...



Up next for your viewing pleasure is HEATH LEDGER. Normally he doesn't do it for me, but he is blond and this picture is...well, NICE...


LEGOLAS.
Yes, I understand he's a fictional character.
And that his hair is long, and his ears are elf-like.
And sure, he's not wearing a suit.
But, you can kind of see it, right? Right? RIGHT?


Chef god, GORDON RAMSAY
As I said up top, I have a thing for angry, damaged men...and if they can cook - WELL...




Next is, JAMES BOND/DANIEL CRAIG
What is there to say...
Seriously, look at those eyes..



Okay, last but not least, THAT GUY FROM SEX AND THE CITY
...I love you Samantha Jones...




So? What do you think? Whose going to play the part of Ethan??

P.S. DON'T FORGET, PHOTO CONTEST MONDAY

DANIEL CRAIG. I love Daniel Craig. He was so sensational in Layer Cake and Munich as well as Bond. And are you so excited for the Golden Compass? Am I totally off topic? Point: DANIEL CRAIG. Yes, please.

Definitely the last one...he just seems to fit the role. I prefer my heroes tall, dark and handsome!

His name is Jason Lewis. :)

Also, not to take over the comments, but what about Paul Walker?

Dinah, my love, I know - I was considering him, but he's a little weak-chinned, if you know what I mean..

Ha, Dorothy! I love that too...
