Which actors would star in the movie based on your life?

Did this little selection thing on Facebook where you selected the actors who would star in a movie based on your life. And I kinda thought it was a fun idea I thought we could do it here.

It's five categories and it goes as follows:

You
Your love intrest
Your best friend
One of your parents
Your worst enemy


Also feel free to add reasons to why you chose the actors. I selected the following:

You: Jake Gyllenhaal http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0350453/ He's got the geeky guy thing down and given a beard he'd look like a prettier version of me.

Your love intrest: Mary Elizabeth Winstead http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0935541/ She's so damned cute and I think you could buy her as a love interest for Gyllenhaal.

Your best friend: Scott Grimes http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0342241/ He's hilarious and a great actor and I feel he would honestly be a lot of fun as a best friend character.

One of your parents:
Terry O'Quinn http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0642368/ Obviously great actor, but he sorta looks a bit like my dad.

Your worst enemy: Mark Sheppard http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0791968/ Technically he looks a bit more like me, but he would be kickass channeling a particular smarmy bastard from my teens.



Obviously this is sort of the Hollywood-improved version of my life, but that' how it is :lol: Look forward to seeing other peoples contributions.

Oh also mods, if you feel this is more TV and gen Media feel free to move it. Me I feel it's sorta riding the edge.
 
You: Matt Damon (I can't think of any popular Asian actor in Hollywood my age)
Your love interests: Angelina Jolie (as herself); Matthew Fox; Channing Tatum
Your best friend: Blythe Danner
One of your parents: Either Robert DeNiro or Diane Keaton
Your worst enemy: Ciaran Hinds
 
You: Wil Wheaton (wearing lifts in his shoes).
Your love interest: Felicia Day ? :lol:
Your best friend: Errrrr.
One of your parents: Glenn Close.
Your worst enemy: Joe Flanigan as himself. :mad:
 
Me: Alyson Hannigan (nerdy but cute)
Love Interest: Gael Garcia Bernal (the thinking lady's crumpet)
Best Friend: Sandra Oh (I'm basing this purely on her character in Grey's Anatomy - frosty on the outside, warm and silly on the inside)
Parent: Jonathon Rhys Davies (beardy and well-read)
Worst Enemy: Megan Fox (just because she looks mean!)
 
Me: Dita Von Teese, plz.

Love interest: Jet Li or the hot Korean dude from G.I. Joe (Storm Shadow)

Best Friend: Jessica Simpson (LOLOL SORRY ERIN)

Parents: Macho Man Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth (if she were to come back from the dead)

Worst Enemy: Paris Hilton so I can stab her repreatedly.



It's almost eerie how much Randy and Elizabeth look like my parents back in the day.
 
Me: Carrol O'Connor
Love Interest: Jessica Alba
Best Friend: I dont know his name, but he played the craggy face supervisor cop in "The Crow"
Parents: The Honeymooners
Worst Enemy: Any loser who graduated from West Point.
 
Me: Andy Richter
Love Interest: Julia-Louis Dryfus
Best Friend: Dave Foley
Parents: Red and Kitty Foreman from That 70s show, except Kitty would be the mean one
Worst Enemy: Brannon Braga
 
Probably some very cheap and totally unknown actors as a movie based on my life certainly wouldn't make any money and would probably utterly boring.
 
You: Neil Grayston
Love interest:
Zoe Saldana
Best friend:
Milo Ventimiglia
Parents:
Kate Jackson, Christopher Walken
Worst enemy
: Eliza Dushku

Oh also mods, if you feel this is more TV and gen Media feel free to move it. Me I feel it's sorta riding the edge.
Nah, it's fine right here. :)
 
Everybody would be played by Holly Hunter. And it would be directed by David Lynch.

:bolian:

Obviously that's a first pitch. A better pitch will come along later...
 
Starring
Jerry O'Connell
...Michael Christopher

Zachary Levi
...Best Friend


William H. Macy
...Dad

Jack Nicholson
...The Devil
 
No, my life is much too dull for a biopic, and would be a bit dark, unless there's some serious 3rd act redemption comin' real soon now. And I can't raise enough ego to say which famous actor would play me.

James McAvoy as James Tyler
For no other reason than I'd look a hell of a lot better and he'd have the accent down. Though I'm too much of a media whore not to be cast as myself ;)

Katee Sackhoff as Diane Marczynka
...whether I were in charge of casting or not, my girlfriend wouldn't let anyone but Starbuck play her.

Kevin Bridges as Marty Michaels.
Not my closest friend, but Marty brings the funnies, and although he might resent being represented by a fat Scottish comedian, my life is majorly depressing, I need my funnies.

Penelope Wilton as Mummy Tyler
She'd have to play the same character she did in Sean of the Dead. My mother wouldn't see the funny side, but I would.

Tom Hardy as Glen Dunbar
They look absolutely nothing alike or have any similar qualities whatsoever. But Glen doesn't look as menacing as he fights, Hardy could bring a new dimension to him.
