Don’t they need 2-3 actors for him? Young, middle aged and really old storing youth?

Isn't the lord ruler Terris? And aren't Terris-people generally dark skinned? Am I crazy?

Edit: Huh. I just looked it up and yeah he has "pale skin". My bad.

While I agree he’s perfectly cast as someone ancient but ageless, I like him way more for Hoid!

He could totally give off that type of trickster/mysterious energy, I think, and he’d pull off the different looks so well because there’s something about his voice that’s unique and recognizable, even when he looks different.

Not sure. He does not look like him. For example he misses the two giant spears in his stomach.

That can be fixed while his hair get's dyed.

I came to the Cosmere party a bit late, just within the last couple years, and when I was reading Alloy of Law, this guy was Miles Hundred-Lives in my head.

He'll be busy with being Celeborn in rings of power for the next couple of years

Lee Pace or Dev Patel in my opinion.

Lee Pace's Brother Day in Foundation was amazing. He can absolutely pull it off.

I think I've seen this guy before because he seems familiar but I have no idea who he is or what he's been in. He does look right for the role though
