Thought: Who should play Amy Winehouse for her biopic film when they do one?

6 Comments

Now that Amy is gone, you can expect Hollywood to make a biopic film about her where an actress would play the deceased pop star. The actress would have to match her look and be around the same age.

Here are my picks of young actresses that should play Amy:

  • Scarlett Johansson – Scarlett is just about Amy’s age and she has the good enough acting chops to play just about anything, plus she can sing and has musical experience.
  • Megan Fox – For years, Megan and Amy have been compared to each other. They both look kind of similar. Just give Megan the similar clothing Amy wears, the same tattoos, and there you go, Megan would look exactly like Amy. Megan doesn’t sing but she could learn for the film.
  • Keira Knightley – She’s got Amy’s look a little bit too.
  • Natalie Portman – Simply because she did a great job with “Black Swan”, I think Natalie would be a good fit.
  • Christina Aguilera – She did a good job playing the leading role in the film “Burlesque” which is a film that I actually enjoyed, plus, she’s an actual musician and singer too. She wouldn’t be a bad pick.

I would go see an Amy Winehouse biopic film, depending on who’s directing and starring in it. I just hope they make it an Oscar winning movie when they do one.

Report: Ronald Reagan biopic is on it’s way to the big screen…

Leave a comment

This was bound to happen and yes, it is happening. A Ronald Reagan biopic is on it’s way to the big screen. The film will focus on his life from his childhood to his Hollywood life to being president, all the way up to his death in 2004. The film will be adapted by two different novels, “The Crusader” and “God and Ronald Reagan”. The goal with the biopic is that they want to avoid the controversial mistakes from the 2003 mini series, “The Reagans”, which caused an uproar through the entertainment world. For now, no casting and no director has been confirmed yet, but we will hear about those soon. Read more from the Hollywood Reporter.

Who should play Ronald?

I just hope they won’t give the role to Leo Dicaprio, Matt Damon or Johnny Depp for the young Reagan.

An actor would have to match the young Reagan’s look, here is the young Reagan here:

I would pick either Ethan Hawke or Christian Bale to get the young Reagan.

For the old Reagan, I’d say give it to Fred Ward. Why Fred Ward? Because he looks almost identical to Reagan, on top of that, Fred already played Reagan in a movie once called, “Farewell”. Why not have Fred play him again? I’d say go for it!!!
