Recently asked the question ‘If you could produce a biographical film based on any person, who would it be and who would you cast in the main role?’

I then got an answer from user ‘Prideful’, they stated a movie based on Hillary Clinton and with Annette Bening portraying Hillary. This got me thinking due to the fact I always thought that Meryl Streep would be best at being Hillary but now that I think about it, Annette would be amazing as well.

So, who is your dream portrayal?

Also I recommend users to follow up on peoples answers and give their opinion and if they think there is someone else who would be better suited to the role.

i think Meryl Streep is too obvious a choice, and actually if they made a biopic about Hillary Clinton’s life, i’d like to see them cast actresses in different age ranges to play Hillary in different parts of her life; and my ultimate choice would be Glenn Close for current-day Hillary.

Haha thanks for the shoutout 🙂 guess I can explain my rationale.

I always heard some small rumors/talks about Annette being a b–tch to work with, and that haircut/personality/smile she had in American Beauty, reminded me of Hillary. Waiting for the Hillary version of that breakdown crying scene Annette had in American Beauty.

I think eventually there will be a movie about Hillary either about her presidential run(s) or her time as the First Lady. Meryl is around Hillary’s age, but I do not see much physical resemblance between them. I can’t really think of any other actress who could pull off looking like Hillary to be honest, even Annette is a stretch, but you gotta start somewhere.

That would be amazing if they done different ages, I would love to see Jessica Chastain as 90’s Hillary. Hillary actually looked youthful when she was in her 50’s and if you put a blonde wig on Chastain she would look the part.

If Jessica pull’s her acting/debating skills from Miss Sloane into this movie, I am here for it. Although to be honest, I don’t think Jessica looks anything like Hillary.

My dream is Rosamund Pike as Grace Kelly in a better biopic and then she can win her Oscar. I’m dying for this.

THIS. Could you imagine scenes of her remaking Dial M for Murder? Ahhh. I had also heard about a year and a half ago she was the frontrunner for a Vivien Leigh biopic, wonder what happened to that.

Jennifer Jason Leigh as Janis Joplin. Michelle Williams was a terrible casting choice, she literally looks nothing like her. I know JJL is a lot older than Joplin when she died, but they have so many facial similarities I think she could pull it off.

Although Natalie was bloody magnificent as Jackie O, I would have loved to see Rachel Weisz playing her. We were very close to it if Rachel and Darren didn’t split.

Rooney Mara or Lily Collins for a young Audrey Hepburn, Audrey Tatou or Natalie Portman for an older Hepburn, Winona Ryder for a much older Hepburn.

January Jones for Grace Kelly.

Ivana Millicevic for a younger Donatella Versace.

Scarlett Johnasson as Marylin Monroe.

Keira Knightely as Cate Middleton.

Tammy McIntosh as Katharine Hepburn.

Rebecca Ferguson = Ingrid Bergman
