Somehow, I think Ian McKellan would make a good Robinton. Don't know how musical he is, but he does the kindly smile well.

much as i don't like her or using big name stars, just because they are big name, Sarah Michelle Geller always reminds me of Lessa

and yes, Sir Ian might be good as robinton, or ben kingsly. imho a much underated star, and he does sing.

Any recent news?

Nothing since DragonCon, last August. Of course if/when negotiations are ongoing, they can't be commented upon. But we've heard numerous times before that there are "interested parties" and "negotiations," but nothing has come close to materializing since the TV show deal fell through just before fliming began.
