I always thought of Idaho as a black man, don't know why.
Jackson would be a bit too old though, the role would require great physicality for sword fighting.

Jodorowsky would have cast this man as the Baron.

Other actors cast were Gloria Swanson, David Carradine, Geraldine Chaplin, Alain Delon, Hervé Villechaize and Mick Jagger.
But I can't remember their roles except Swanson as the Reverend Mother and Carradine as Leto. I guess Chaplin would have been Jessica. I remember seeing a short person amongst the Moebius costumes so that would have been Villechaize but I dunno in what role.
