He may work... but, then again, he may overpower the scene. You need more of a character actor and not a "star". That's the only thing against Nicholson...

Have you heard of an actor named Robert Hardy out of England. He played Siegfried Farnon in All Creatures Great and Small series... He would be perfect. Great actor, disappears into the role, has the look of Bombadil.
