For anyone who's ever read this book, what do you think about the casting of the movie adaptation? Will Ferrell is going to be playing Ignatius J. Reilly. I have trouble imagining Ferrell in this part. It seems like he'd turn the part into more of a caricature than an accurate portrayal, which is sad considering that this is one of the most memorable characters in modern fiction. I think Philip Seymour Hoffman would've been a great pick for this role. He's already got some of the girth (I'm sure he'd need extra padding too), but he's also a great actor and I think he could pull it off perfectly. Any other ideas of people who could do a great job with the part?
