Who would you want to play yourself in a movie?

[Leemaster777]

So, lets say that, for one reason or another, you've become unfathomably famous and popular. I dunno, maybe you cured cancer, or saved the world from aliens, or maybe a genie did it or something.

Whatever the case, you're the hottest thing right now. And, Hollywood has decided to make a movie about your life. Plus, they've given you a certain amount of creative control on it, specifically, you can choose who you would want to play yourself (and no, you can't do it yourself. Either you can't act, or you're off busy doing other spectacular things).

Remember, whomever you pick has to actually be able to DO it. So no picking dead/retired celebrities. Other than that, feel free to get creative on it.

Personally, I think the only actor in Hollywood capable of accurately emulating my real-life awkwardness would have to be Jonah Hill.

If not him, and I was feeling particularly narcissistic, I'd go with Neil Patrick Harris. Because he's fucking Neil Patrick Harris.

 

[SckizoBoy]

James Mason... though I'd have to go back in time to a time when he was in his mid-twenties and then bring him back. Damn the inconveniences of time... -_-

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Samuel L Jackson.

Because my movie will be as inaccurate and awesome as possible.

 

[Andy Shandy]

If it has to be realistic, then Patton Oswalt. He's one of the bigger (proportionally not fame) actors, if I recall correctly. Or Brian Cox, since he's Dundonian, so he'd have the right accent for me anyway.

If I get to choose anyone, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Samuel L Jackson or Hugh Laurie. It would more than likely be a very differing film depending on the final choice.

Christina Hendricks-

Spoiler: This lady

As this guy-

Spoiler: C'est moi!

It'd be hilarious.
I'd have them keep all the gender roles the same, too, just for the lulz. If I'm going to have someone play me, I may as well keep it interesting.

robert downey jr, I want to be Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes or maybe zach galifianakis to get the beard right

 

[shogunblade]

Phillip Seymour Hoffman. His hair is a little bit more red then mine (He classifies blonde to me, though), but short of that and the exception of a 23 year difference, we look quite a bit alike.

Although, someone once told me that I looked like Matt Lucas. When I was quite heavy (and about 15 - 16) we looked quite a bit alike, except I'm not british, and I wasn't quite impressed with him on Krod Mandoon, so I'd still vote PSH.

Edit: I abbreviated Phillip Seymour Hoffman as PHS. I had Final Fantasy VII on my mind again. Changed it.

 

[Heronblade]

Sean Bean (voice of Martin Septim, Boromir, Eddard Stark)

The face is similar enough, and his mannerisms (at least on screen) are a close match.

I'd love to get Daniel Craig up there, but have to admit the match doesn't work out.

 

[ohnoitsabear]

Arnold Schwarzenegger. Nobody else would be manly enough to accurately portray me.

 

[Queen Michael]

Mila Kunis. I'm a twenty-four-year-old guy. Now that would be interesting.

 

[PsychicTaco115]

Jesse Eisenberg

Socially awkward youth with funny hair? We're practically twins!

And before anyone says Micheal Cera plays the same role, we don't have the same hair color/style and he's turned to the Jersey Douche side recently

I weep for him

 

[Dawns Gate]

Tom Cruise. He's almost as messed up as I am.

 

[BloatedGuppy]

When I was younger, the overwhelming consensus was John Cusak. Looks, personality...there was that vague resemblance, you know? We could've been brothers.

Now that I am older....eh. Probably still John Cusak. John Cusak or Mark Ruffalo.

 

[G32420NL]

Steven seagal or Jean claude van damme, who gets the role will be decided by an akward kicking contest.

Lol, captcha: my mind's eye, want to keep it out of there if you dont mind

 

[excalipoor]

Leonardo DiCaprio. He's alright in everything I've seen him in.

Not the young, pretty Leonardo, though. If modern-day DiCaprio were to grow his hair out, had thicker eyebrows and wore brown contacts, we'd look somewhat alike. Which is kinda sad, considering that he's 15 years older than me...

 

[Starik20X6]

(and no, you can't do it yourself. Either you can't act, or you're off busy doing other spectacular things).

Dammit man, you foiled my plan to star in my own biopic and cast Christina Hendricks, Emma Watson and Anne Hathaway as my various girlfriends! Grrr.

OT: I was once described as halfway between Mark Webber...

Spoiler: For those who don't know what he looks like.

... and Orlando Bloom...

Spoiler: Seriously? You don't know what this guy looks like?

So, seeing as Webber isn't an actor, I'll choose Bloom.

 

[Violator[xL]]

Mackenzie Crook! Just as ugly!

[bowserboy26578]

Older me played by Hugh Laurie. I'd be happy with that.

 

[The_Blue_Rider]

Well Daystar already took Samuel L. Jackson so I'll go with the next best option

It was either Cage or Christopher Walken, but Cage won over somehow.

This is all rendered somewhat moot though since Im not even Caucasian but whatevs
