Another point to consider is the casting, which you kind of alluded to.
Who do you cast as God? Or the Oracle in The Matrix? Or as Dracula?
Do you cast John Candy as Dracula? Or Eddie Murphy as Dracula?
Do you cast Alanis Morissette as God? How about Woody Allen as Indiana Jones?
In the director's hands, the actor can be like a musical instrument. The instrument can play a wide range of notes, but with a very defined and limited voice and tone that no matter what the actor does, he or she cannot completely change his or her voice.
