I also think Clancy Brown would make a good Donald Callahan. He played a minister in Carnivale (though he was possessed, lol). But he's what I pictured Pere Callahan to look like.

I would choose
Roland == Anson Mount
Susannah Dean== danai gurira
Actually, Cranston would be an incredible Roland, provided they make the movie(s) before we all grow up and die.
River Phoenix would have made an excellent Jake.Dream cast? Like, anyone I want? Even dead people? Pointless fantasy time:
Roland--a younger Clint, like from Heartbreak Ridge era.
Eddie--Leo Gorcey (the head Dead End kid)
Suze--Slammin Pam Grier, from the 70s
Jake--River Phoenix, circa 1985
Walter--Richard Widmark, circa 1950
Callahan--John Huston, circa 1965
Those are the ones in my head when I read, anyway.
I've always found it interesting to see who people want to play as in films, I just have to block them out of my mind later to not ruin my view of the character's in my mind.
My first would be (like a lot of people) Javier Bardem as Roland, even if Roland isn't Mexican, to me he just fits.
Colin Farrell as Eddie, he just, I don't even know, looks the part, if you can make this guy look like a junky stoner, that is.
As Susannah,Whoopi GoldbergSanaa Lathan. Sanaa is beautiful and (I don't know if this is racist, cry your pardon if it is) has that black dialect accent.
As Jake, you know what? Maybe Chandler Riggs. He's a bit old for the role, but they might change the age like they did in Under the Dome, so it might be good.
Father Callahan: God, that's a hard one. I can't even figure that out. As for the rest, I dont even know, this is my first dream cast list.
So let us see yours!

For me it has to be Aaron Paul for Eddie, and how about Iain Glen from GOT's as Roland? He has my vote!
I'm afraid you can't have Sean Bean - it is an established rule that he is killed in absolutely everything. Poor Roland wouldn't survive the first hour Iain Glen though... like it.I think Iain Glen or Sean Bean would be perfect !

Here is an out there suggestion... Mads Mikkelesen (or Hannibal). Maybe he would need to work as the voice but he has the eyes!
