More Info at:
Robert Langdon, the lead character in New York Times Best Seller The Da Vinci Code and its prequel Angels and Demons, is physically described as having wisps of gray in his thick brown hair, probing blue eyes, an arrestingly deep voice, and the strong, carefree smile of a collegiate athlete... the body of a swimmer, a toned, six-foot physique that he vigilantly maintained with fifty laps a day in the university pool. (Angels and Demons, Chapter 1)
With that description in mind, the list of actors that should portray Langdon is limited to a few people, but we must also keep in mind which performer Dan Brown, the author of the books, would like to see on the big screen as his characters come to life.
His favorite name, as well as many of the fans of the books, for the role is Australian actor Hugh Jackman, who is currently starring on Broadways The Boy From Oz. The Golden Globe nominee (for Kate and Leopold) fits the description almost perfectly and can speak in a flawless American accent, according to Brown in an interview with Portsmouth (New Hampshire) online news source.
We are asking you to consider Hugh Jackman for the role of Robert Langdon because if the creator of the series believe that he is the best actor for the role, we think it would be fitting to go with his wishes. He too knows what will make these books into great movies, just as you do.

- Jackman has done nothing but good, casting him as Robert Langdon would be no exception. As a fan of Mr. Brown's work, I implore you to cast Jackman. However, if you do not, please refrain from casting Harrison Ford or Russell Crowe for I will refuse to see the movie if you do. Thank you.
