    My cat. Everyone would be played by cats. Untrained cats, just put them together in relevant places and roll camera. It’s art now.

      I was thinking specific cats (a la Unsinkable Sam or Stationmaster Tama), but these newcomers need breakout roles too!

    Nicolas Cage.

    Doesn’t matter that he isn’t even close to being a match, but the movie would most certainly be entertaining.

    I’m thinking the actress for MJ in Spiderman (forgot her name) is the closest match, but it would still be a very rough one. For starters, I’m wondering how well she’d do in leg guards or if she could do a Kiwi accent.

    Probably Keanu Reaves. We went to the same schools growing up and have similar ethnicity. I don’t actually remember him, though I must’ve passed him in the hall? He’s a few years my senior.

    I describe myself as looking like what happens when you skip character creation. I’m super average-looking and would be tough to pick from a crowd.

    Either Jack Black or Daniel Day-Lewis, depending on who directs/who’s casting.

    Edit: I’m not saying I look like Daniel Day-Lewis, I’m saying I like to think my life would require an actor of his caliber and complexity. Probably Rob Schneider would suffice, in reality.

      In a similar vein, not Rob Schneider the actor, but that racist stereotype Mexican he plays in a bunch of movies. I would find it hilarious in a “I’m the dude playing the dude disguised as another dude” way.

      Wait.

      RDJ playing Rob Schneider playing that character.

      Daniel Day Lewis?! Now, I know you’re being disingenuous. Please use no fewer than 25 words between the; painter, journeyman cobbler, chef, bon vivant, quite possibly the greatest actor of his generation and Rob “screaming internally for validation” Schneider.

    Apparently I look a lot like a certain, well known actor. So much so, that several people independently of each other told me that.
