Too short, Warbucks is usually tall to make Annie look smaller.

Posted: 5/26/12 at 5:40amJohn Larroquette would be perfect, but with The Best Man extending, it seems unlikely.

A bit too old, no? He's sixty-six! (Love him, though) I really can't imagine who it might be....
I can't imagine it would be too much longer until we know.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

The only "name" they are going with in this revival is for the role of Cecile.
Trust me.

Posted: 5/26/12 at 12:29pmTo be honest, as far as I know they don't have a Warbucks set in stone yet. Still talking to people.

Posted: 5/26/12 at 12:35pmI don't think they'll get a person with a big name for Warbucks. I wish there was some type of research to support this, but I feel like unless it's a male heavy show or some other similar circumstance, getting a female "name" brings more success than bringing in a male.

Posted: 5/26/12 at 12:44pmHugh Laurie! That is actually an intriguing idea.

Nah, Hugh Laurie's too small a name.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has twice as many letters.

Posted: 5/26/12 at 1:04pmEven though he may not be able to do it..Ron Raines would be a great Daddy Warbucks. He is not too big of a name...but..but..if they want a BIG, BIG name, then I say Donald Trump!
