Black Mage needs to be someone used to suffering, so i'd have to say Will Arnet would be perfect.
I third Will Ferrell playing Fighter.
A good Thief would be Seth Green.
For Red Mage i think it would have to be Robin Williams.
Black Belt would HAVE to be Samuel L. Jackson.
No idea about White Mage.
An insane Adam West would be the perfect King Steve.
For Sarda, i'd have to say Lewis Black
Jack Black would make a good Garland.

I can't see Will Ferrell as Fighter. Not...really someone you'd expect to kill things.

Much as Ryan Reynolds would work quite well, I finally remembered who I thought of for Thief last time this came up: Hugh Laurie, doing something not unlike Dr. House.

And bear in mind, wazn, that you don't really see Fighter himself doing much killing. But you do see a lot of him being awfully childlike and offering comments like "I'm a helper!"

I fourth Will Ferrel as Fighter, and second Black Belt as Samuel Jackson!

I agree with what has been said and agreed with;

Samuel L Jackson as Black Belt.

The real trick will be getting Jolene Blalock to play Commander T'pol.

1st: It has been too long

2nd: I noticed there have been no bids for BM...so i cast my vote towards the fugly guy that plyed "jackie boy" in Sin City. He looks like he would smell funny...

Hmm Hugh Laurie would make a good Thief, i mean i he's fantastic as Dr. House and the two of them are quite similar. The only problem is that Hugh might be a little to old to play the nimble Thief.

About the DWs... Who could be the actors for them?
Garland could be played by... I'd say it, but then I'd get flamed to death since no one likes his acting.
Hmm... Bikke... Who could be Bikke? Someone with experience in acting as a pirate... Uh... Johnny Depp?
Hell I have no idea about who could play the other two.

More like voices but...

BM: Rowan Atkinson, Lewis Black, Jack Nicholson (English Accent included)
Fighter: Someone who can pull of a "Caboose from Red Vs Blue" kind of performance, Tony Robinson (sans English Accent)
Thief: Phil Hartman (you said Living or Dead), Hugh Laurie, Will Arnet
Red Mage: Nathan Lane

This is all I can think of at the moment. Sorry if it's a poor list...
