But let me ask you this, would you want to play one of your dead fathers characters? Some people might not want to go down that path.
But there are really quite a few actors that would be a good fit.
One of the early posts in this thread mentioned Michael Ironside. His performance in Starship troopers is one of my all time favorites.

Really the hardest person to cast would be Adama.
Michael Ironside would be a good choice. But, regarding Jeff Bridges, I could actually see him doing it, if the situation ever presented itself. When you think about it, there's really no better tribute than having a son walk in his father's shoes for a bit.
