Nickolas Cage 
or Kasparov.
Johnny Depp FOR SURE!!
From what understand, Morphy was a bit of a freak. And nobody does freak better than Johnny.
I remember a movie once about Morphy. i think he was played by Farley Granger but it was so long ago I could be wrong. Does anybody remember it?
And they could even base it on Francis Parkinson Keyes' novel about him.
Heaven forbid.
Johnny Depp FOR SURE!!

I've had it with these motherf#####g rooks on my motherf#####g 7th rank!
I think Cage should stick to action movies. I think Matt Damon could play it he appears to be intelligent.

Maybe Robert Downey Jr. can do it:

I think Hollywood should make a movie based on Morphy's life considering Morphy's level of legendary. Hmm,.. which actor do you guys think is suitable enough to play as Morphy??
