You're just trying to make me feel better about them. ;)
Oh ... your icon ... oh ... *distracted* I think I wanted to say something ...
It's really difficult for non-native speakers to achieve such a perfect accent that people don't even notice anymore that they're not American, and unfortunately that's what most American producers want. As long as his accent is too noticeable they'll only cast him for non-American characters. I mean, how many non-native speakers do you know who have or had a proper career in America? I can't think of many. First who comes to mind is Diane Kruger, but only because she sounds so American by now that Tarantino didn't even believe she was German. ;)
*goes back to staring at your icon*
Ah, speaking of Twilight. The author of the books actually wanted Henry Cavill to play Edward. Cavill, who is a) gorgeous and b) a decent actor. Fortunately he was too old for the part by the time they started shooting the movies. But it sickens me that I might have enjoyed at least parts of Twilight (not the crappy plot, but the pretty main character) if Cavill had been in it.
