Maybe it's the whole Shrek II thing sticking in my mind (it was on some obscure cable channel here the other day), but Antonio Banderas would be a decent choice also.

No. Greebo is not spanish/latino !! Banderas could be Casanunder, he is greasy enough... but not Greebo ! Greebo is a lean (ok, fat) mean mouse-killing machine, Jackman is purrrfect ! (and I would have to go see the film if he was in it, of course) He's got his own fur, and he's already used to having claws... (X-men 1/2/3)

I did think of Barbosa. Nevertheless,you are right Sir when pointig out that he needs more serious shaping.

That you for agreeing with me, my good knight.

I don't think Greebo is fat, Katcal. As least not in his human form. And why couldn't he be latino?

I think that latino would be the best form for him

Is it just me or does the latino race seem the most catlike?

They do. It's something about the preportioning. And the way most of them move. Cat-like is just built in. Not even my 7-month pregnant teacher is an exception.

He's fat as a cat, not as a human, I agree, but being a mean fat cat creates a personnality that just doesn't fit Banderas at all, to me. Greebo is a "butch" cat, as cats go, and the greasy seductive side of Banderas seems wrong... Jackman is just a natural cat, to me, he even makes Wolverine cat-like, which is saying something... But maybe I should read that part of the book again, I may have completely forgotten some vital details...

Banderas or Jackman would be awesone as Greebo but as i was reading maskerade i couldnt help thinking of Colin Farrell!

Hummmm...


Well... seeing as Greebo "spends most of his time as a human looking for trousers" I can actually quite imagine Colin Farrel OR Hugh Jackman as Greebo. And that's where Banderas doesn't fit in... Just not tasty enough

Jackman would be fine, but I've got to disagree about Banderas. Very tasty actor, and he could handle the dangerous/attraction part. Parts of Zorro come to mind, for me!

Latinos can be innately sensual, and cats are sensual to the nth degree. Even Greebo, apparently. Ask all of the lady cats of Lanchre!

Edit:classic dyslexic fingers moment!

Plus the way they roll their rr's, like a purr.

EDIT: And the shape of their eyes, and the shape of everything else too....
