Bring new actors in---this a prequel, not a sequel! I hope Del Toro will stay true to the tale as told by Tolkien as it stands alone and does not need any backtelling or additional explanation.

When did Ecthelion die? And John Noble is quite right that a younger actor should play a younger role. Denethor when seen in ROTK has been greatly changed by his confrontations with Sauron, and wouldn't be recognisable to his earlier self.

Can't he see this is much bigger than him? He shouldn't be so selfish to deprive us audience members of continuance, and the suspension of disbelief. He is Denethor, and by God, if he is alive, then he has a duty to play him again, should Denethor be written into the movie...
