The Voice of the Hitchhiker's Guide

As noted in sweinberg's LJ, Stephen Fry will be the voice of the HHGttG! That's excellent news, as the only other person who really could have pulled it off (Michael Palin) is just a little too predictable.

I am having panic attacks waiting for this movie to come out. May will not come fast enough for me and dear god do not let this movie be delayed. I am so excited! LOL

Eric Idle could've done it.

True. I sense that there might have been a little bit of an effort to avoid casting any Python, out of a sense that it seemed too obvious.

Eric has great delivery, but he lacks the smugness of Stephen's voice.

Stephen!! I think I'm going to squee almost as much as the Alan Rickman news.
