Angelina, I think...and no, she wouldn't make a good Sith. I'd imagine a Sith Lord to be gaunt, which she's anything but.

You mean as a silent androgynous person in a fully enclosed suit?

No I meant him as Revan after his fall. As his performence showed in the movies I mentioned he could play characters who are very dark yet you could sympathise with them. This is perfect for a role such as Revan.

What about Jason Isaacs?

Well, that's not really a Sith now.
And personally I've never played as a male Revan so I wouldn't know.

I got two that are kind of out of left field. As we all know sith come in pairs of two.

Mark Callaway, and Glen Jacobs. Better known as

The Undertaker

and

Kane

Powerful Sith they could be. Powerful indeed.

So in your opinion you don't think she would, great. I do. And when have any Sith been gaunt?

Apart from Count Dooku and Palpatine, I can't think of any.
There are a few more in the EU, of course, like Asaijj Ventress, Darth Traya and Joruus C'baoth (not sure if the latter is full Sith or just crazy Jedi)
Maul and Vader were hardly gaunt. Even in the EU there's Exar Kun and the quite full figured Aurra Sing.

Maybe Palps, and not ROTS Palps, but ROTJ, not Dooku though. He is a big dood.

Blasphemy! Christopher Lee is gaunt by definition!
He's Dracula, man!

Of course, there's also Tarkin. But he wasn't a Sith...

.. as far as we know!

gaunt (gônt) pronunciation
adj., gaunt·er, gaunt·est.

1. Thin and bony; angular. See synonyms at lean2.
2. Emaciated and haggard; drawn.
3. Bleak and desolate; barren.

Count Dooku is none of these things, except maybe bleak.

So this guy doesn't look bony and haggard to you?

Then we clearly have different definitions of gaunt - while he's not an extreme example the cheeks alone say enough. *shrug* That's just how I imagine Sith to be.

Alright, I'll concede haggard, since anyone born in 1922 is definetly worn down, but I concede it very stubbornly since I am considering his over all look. His clothes and hair are well kept and not haggard. But he is not thin, nor bony nor emaciated. Bleak yes. Desolate... well I've never used that to describe a person. Angular? No. I consider Peter Cushing o be angular.

Christopher Lee has aged very, very well and looks excellent for a man already well into his 80s.

What about the guy who plays Baal on Stargate? He's already got the sinister angle down pretty well.

Kane looks like he'd be a good match to be that self-resurrecting Sith from KOTOR2

EDIT-Crap, I meant Sion.
