    James "aw Shucks" Stewart - cause hes decent, an everyman, but still kind of cool but not aloof. Oh yeah, and always does whats right.

    And If I wanted someone who was really cool to play me I would go for Joseph Cotten all played out in Gothic Black and white.

    James van der Beek.

    Michael Sheen.

    To perfectly capture the madness, the badness and the sweetness that is me, I don't think there's a better man out there for the job. From the times I'm happy and excitable, to the times I'm brooding and angry, I think Sheen could pull it off with a nice bit of flair and panache. If he thought that playing Brian Clough was a challenge.......

    Chris Burke would be a shoe in for me. He has the look but probably has too much intelligence.

    I would like to have John Cusack play me as he is about the right height, but given that I carry a lot more muscle than him not to mention my ink, I am going to have to go with Dwayne Johnson as height and weight (not to mention body art) are close.

    Chris Hemsworth could be another as his build for Thor is similar to mine and his is 6'3 or 6'4 as well. Actually he might be appropriate as a number of my tattoos are based on Norse mytholgy and one is of Mjolnir.Will need to darken his hair and get inked up though. :D

    i have been told that i would be like a younger Brendan Gleeson so i would have to go with him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,384 ✭✭✭Duffy the Vampire Slayer


    Me and my friends had a lengthy discussion of this before. I ended up being Phillip Seymour Hoffman (We ignored age).

    Christian Bale is the only man who could accurately capture the pure complexity that is LZ.

    :pac:

    Well I had another "comedian" in mind for you, but I still cannot remember his bloody name, so I ended up going for Evans as I figured it would get a reaction. :p

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Daniel Day Lewis. He's the only one I would allow to portray me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    ^same.

    He'd be a more convincing me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 239 ✭✭mrgardener


    Brad Pitt. 'Cause I'm that good lookin'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,568 ✭✭✭candy-gal1


    Drew Barrymore, her personality in most of her movies and real life fits me exactly :)
    plus a fair few people say i look like her! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 697 ✭✭✭gent9662


    Mario Rosenstock. I've been told I'm the spit of him.

    Because I apparently look like him............Jared Leto


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭Sanjuro


    Paul Giamatti. Or an older, balder, uglier Michael Cera.

    Although a mate of mine is convinced Steve Carrell should play me. He's a big fan of The Office. This concerns me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,770 ✭✭✭smokingman


    J. Depp apparently. Same build, same face, same "boyish looks"....so my wife tells me. :pac:
