Containment Casting Call - CWC the Movie

[Optimistic]

Long time lurker, first time poster. Forgive me if this has been done before, but I thought of this topic last night and just had to get it out to the world.

We're making an epic of the life and times Christian W. Chandler, the most fascinating and heart wrenching tale ever told. Who would you cast as the main characters? I thought of several A-list celebrities who would be perfect these iconic characters:

-Parents-

Clint Eastwood as Robert Chandler. "Get away from that internet. I'm cuttin' it down."

Since we can't get the late, great Elizabeth Taylor, Kathy Bates as Barbara Chandler. Enough said.

-Villains-

Guillermo Diaz as Joshua Martinez.

Javier Bardem as Jack Thaddeus. Creep factor.

Justin Bieber as Bluespike. I can see this as his segway into acting.

Patrick Warburton as Kacey's dad. Obvious reasons.

Adam Sandler as Michael Snyder. I picture him screaming, "Get out of my stooooooooreeee!!!"

-Sweethearts/Gal Pals-

Vannessa Hudgens as Herself.

Rachel McAdams as Kacey.

Amanda Seyfried as Ivy.

Ellen Page as Any number of various gal-pals.

That's all I've got for now. Please contribute!

 

[Rio]

any male cast member of Jersey Shore as Clyde Cash.

Emma Stone as Jackie

Kristen Stewart as Megan

What I kind of have in mind for this is, how CWC himself might cast the movie of his life, if he had any wherewithal to do such a thing.

Henry Winkler as Michael Snyder and I'll fund $1000 for production.

Kevin Spacey as Chris

I think John C. Reilly would make a good Chris

Phillip Seymour Hoffman. All the way.

Justin Bieber already had his segue into acting with an episode of CSI. Still, he'd be my choice for Bluespike.

Emma Stone could be Jackie or Ivy.

Here's my cast for a Chris-based miniseries

Chris: Patton Oswalt
Bob: Lance Henriksen (Although Tony Musante or J.K. Simmons would also be great choices)
Barb: John Travolta in the fatsuit from "Hairspray"
Cole: David Cross
Megan: Ellen Page
Anna: Felicia Day
Snyder: Jeff Goldblum
Mary Lee Walsh: Rita Moreno
Clyde Cash: Goodfella Mike G
Vivian Gee: Christine Nguyen
Rob Bell: Lee Tergensen

And if you wanted to include the A-Loggers, then here's my expanded cast

Anthony "A-Log" Logatto: Eddie Malavarca in a fatsuit
Ahuviya Harel: Charles Busch (He played a great tranny on OZ)
Pagan Death Knight: Dean Winters (just give him some fake eyebrows and a black leather jacket, and you're set!)
Robert Wayne "Rika" Stiles: Ted Levine

I just realized that most of my picks were on OZ

 

[LM 697]

Hoffman and Eastwood are too prevalent when it comes to a CWC movie.

I know, hence why I picked Lance Henriksen and Tony Musante as choices for Bob. As for Chris, Patton Oswalt would be a good choice and I will change my post to reflect that

The more I hear about this the more I wish there was a Cwc Movie

 

[Long Sun]

Any movie about Chris would be attack by the Autistic community so fast
If I did it I would double cast many roles because we have reality and the world as Chris see it.
for exsample
as Chris see it he's Michael Cera but as the world see it him would Jonah Hill at his heaviest and in a fat suit

Jonah Hill doesn't really have that much range. He tends to play a very similar character in all of his movies.

Like could you imagine Jonah Hill squeaking and talking in a high pitched voice about Sonic the hedgehog?

The thing with doing a Chris Chan movie is you need a really good character actor to play the lead role. I mean I doubt very many people could pull off Chris Chan just right. It's why Phillip Seymour Hoffman is such a good fit since he tends to play overweight manchildren that shit themselves

 

[Grabthar's Hammer]

There was an indie movie that came out last year called Dark Horse that centered around a very Chris-like character. The actor's name was Jordan Gelber, who had done mostly stage acting before this...he would be a perfect fit to play the real Chris.
