Cast this Series
-
Sorry Gipper , to be honest I don't know who any of these people are except for a very few. Also if we are limited to actors living and working today it's almost impossible, I don't know nearly enough English actors which is what I've been looking for were I Casting.

Do you mean you don't know the characters from the Arthur tales? Derfel and Nimue are a bit unknown....but the other characters are always in the Arthur movies/shows.
And I know that you have read the Bernard Cornwell books that this is based on.
Did he write those Saxon books? If so I just got one of his, the first and one of the series, the last Kingdom. As far as the Arthurian stuff I just don't know English actors well enough. I mean I could probably fill in the blanks with the ones that are big stars now but not familiar enough to discern.Do you mean you don't know the characters from the Arthur tales?

Yes, same guy that writes the Saxon Tales. He actually says that his Arthur Trilogy is his best work.

Are we going with english actors only as it's an english show? Also are we going all-star, dream cast, or less well known?
BBC did this show a few years ago, btw.

I know there are Yanks who can do a British accent and vice versa.
By the way that always amazes me in the case of an Englishman doing a Yankee accent that isn't obvious to me. Kenneth Branagh and Gary Oldman come to mind.

Yes, I saw that show....a decent one.
You can choose any actors you like. I chose mostly British because it is set in Briton.

A lot of British actors when they try to do an American accent have a flat nasaly aspect. Like they were 1920s Chicago gangsters.
Some try to cover it up by attempting to do a southern accent. Again, with some, it works, with most....no.
But the guys you mention do do well.

Frankly I'm not a huge fan of most American actors doing a Southern accent Tom Hanks specifically.
They always wind up sounding like Moe Howard doing Colonel Beauregard.

I think I said Yanks.

I think you meant that they come off sounding like Foghorn Leghorn.

There are at least 9 books, and now a BBC Series.
http://www.bernardcornwell.net/the-last-kingdom-series-formerly-the-warrior-chroniclessaxon-stories/
I have read all the books...most 2 times over.
I have not seen any of the TV show yet. I will likely buy it when it comes out.
