Meta Who would you cast in a Chris Chan movie?

I'd cast Clint Eastwood as Bob. I'd cast Seth Rogen for Chris and Amy Schumer for Christine. I don't have a big pool of actors so my choices would be shit. If we get the Jerkhief, then I'd cast Idris Elba.

 

Since Chris is supposed to be sympathetic he would be played by a really attractive actor and then a really attractive actress after transitioning. All the trolls would be really ugly. It will definitely win an oscar that way.

 

I don't really think that they would go that route for oscar bait. I think that instead they would have Chris being an unattractive man, that becomes a beautiful woman after transitioning. Perhaps they would have the main trolls (Clyde Cash, Liquid Chris, Alec, etc.) as attractive people and the legions of lesser-trolls and weens as being incredibly ugly. Clyde Cash and Liquid Chris would move on from Chris, while Alec will continue to troll Chris but he'll be showcased in the movie as even more of a villain because now, instead of trolling an ugly autistic guy, he's trolling a beautiful transwoman who's trying to move on with her life and he's the last major troll from the classic period who hasn't left him alone.

 

So a remake of the ugly duckling then.

 

Chris- Patton Oswalt
Bob- Dustin Hoffman
Barb- Melissa McCarthy in 20 years
Liquid Chris- Paul Dano
Meagan- Zooey Deschanel
Clyde Cash- Johnny Depp
Sonichu- Andy Serkis
Mary Lee Walsh- Judi Dench

 

Actually, maybe I'd just have Benedict Cumberbatch play every character in the movie. I'm sure he could pull it off.

 

The Tom Cruise character from that movie doing one of Chris's shouting meltdowns would be awesome.

 

Pretty good casting, especially Liquid Chris, he does look like Paul Dano's twin.

 

If Robin Williams were still alive, he would be the best actor to play as Chris.

 

I mean, he already dressed like a woman in one movie...

 

My personal picks for the cast and crew....

Director: Quentin Tarantino (in the trademark Tarantino style for the extra bizarre factor)

Chris: Patton Oswalt
Barb: Lily Tomlin
Bob: J.K. Simmons
Mary Lee Walsh: Meryl Streep
Michael Snyder: Jeff Goldblum
Cole Smithey: Paul Giamatti
Clyde Cash: James Franco
Megan Schroeder: Selena Gomez
Sarah Hammer: Kylie Minogue
Thorg: Seth Rogen
Marvin: Phil LaMarr
Sonichu: Jaleel White (he was the first voice of Sonic, so why not?)

 

I read the last one as Jesco White. Just imagine Jesco white as the voice of Sonichu.

 

That would be even better!

 

Neil Breen and Tommy Wiseau as everybody.

 

Imagine CWC with the same voice as Homer Simpson...

 

I was going to say Chris Farley as Classic Chris until I remembered that he's dead now.

 

Just do Jack black. He's the closest we have . That or Zach gallifanikis. Or however he's spelled.
