Crossing Jordan

It was reported that the show was casting a character described as a sexy, funny and slightly cocky cop. An offer for the role as been offered to Viggo Mortensen. [Michael Ausiello]

from here

(Probably pure speculation, but has me wondering would he consider a tv role? Probably not.)

Doesn't that show star the brunette hottie he flirted with on the Carson Daly show during the Hidalgo press tour? [/troublemaking]

Somehow I doubt he would want to commit to a TV series. I'd like to see him in that role though. (Maybe he would have better hair? lol)

IIRC, she was flirting with him.

Beg to differ, my esteemed colleague. He checked out her ass when she sat down, and playfully sidled up to her later in the interview, chuckling his little nervous/playful chuckle.

wasn't he checking out her booty though [/troublemaking]?

Jill something or other isn't it?

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

Oh pardon me. I was so quick on the retroublemaking I didn't see you already said that

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

Maybe he would have better hair

As long as he didn't have DC's stylist as an advisor!

Hennessey. You guys are right- I forgot about that.

*high five*

Jill Hennessey, I believe. Almost a Catherine Zeta Jones looky-likey.

[pusspower.livejournal.com]

But don't think she didn't enjoy it, being the LOTR fan she claimed to be.

[fomocobaby.livejournal.com]

Yep, I think she giggled right along. Her babydaddy probably wasn't too thrilled, but maybe he's out of the picture now.

Doesn't really matter to me...(a) yo no care (b) I suspect that Viggo has a sig other at the moment and (c) I don't think he'd do a guest spot on a TV show, esp not one that isn't really high-rated or critically acclaimed. Lost, maybe, but not so much Crossing Jordan.

Almost a Catherine Zeta Jones looky-likey.

Hm. You're right. Never paid attention to the facial features,though. Is it more than the hair thing?

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

A groupie? Maybe she's anony on the message boards saying what she really feels about Viggo.

*shrug*
Dunno...what do you think?

I think she's nice looking, but not quite as pretty as CZJ.

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

Can't see him on Lost. Not sure what show I'd place him on. Hm.

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

Dern tootin' there's a strong resemblance. They're very close in age too.

Does that mean she could've been Mrs Michael Douglas too?

[fomocobaby.livejournal.com]

Ew! What's that poor girl ever done to you that you would wish her misfortune like that?

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

LOL - anyone's entitled to a sugar daddy aren't they?

[caranglamiel.livejournal.com]

Very interesting. I'd be surprised if he did it though.

[wwowie.livejournal.com]

There's a lot of big name stars that are doing a lot of TV these days. While I can't see him doing this, that fact gives me a bit of hope. :)

[vigwig.livejournal.com]

He could do a "law and order" nearly everyone else has.

[gueststar70.livejournal.com]

I can see him in more of a CSI epi than a Law & Order epi
