It's Counterfeit Casting time again! Let's see who we have this time around.
Clark Gable
Who was he?
Suave and sophisticated leading man who was also a prankster.
CHOICE CANDIDATE: George Clooney
Come on, can't you picture it? This
one picture also clears up any disapproval on appearance.
James Cagney
Who was he?
Known for his gangster movies, he managed to stray away from the tough guy image to show his range in other genres.
CHOICE CANDIDATE: Jeremy Renner
I saw a few similarities between Cagney in
White Heat and Renner in
The Town, the main one being their characters have itchy trigger fingers and tempers to match. Plus, Renner has shown his range as an actor prior to
The Hurt Locker and
The Town.
Robert Redford
Who is he?
Good-looking leading man who can be a goofball from time to time.
CHOICE CANDIDATE: Brad Pitt
Seriously, it seems so accurate. I have no further comment.
Yess in all 3, but I will also propose Leo Di Caprio for Redford, especially with the Gatsby role coming up.
ReplyDeletePerfect casting choices, Anna! In this feature, you surpassed yourself.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see Brad Pitt as as Gable and his exes and current girlfriend as his lovers and co-stars. A younger version of Juliette Lewis as Harlow, Paltrow as Lombard, Aniston as Shearer and Jolie as Crawford.
