There was one pretty decent reason why Cruise was cast as Von Stauffenberg...
Aside from that, I understand the Cruise really wanted the role, and he apparently still has enough horsepower in Hollywood to get most of what he wants.
Uncanny. Okay, but I just wish he would have TRIED for a German accent. I don’t know.
I know Costner is not a great actor, but he did have “Dances with Wolves,” but he was miscast as Robin Hood.
