I want to be played by a dog

My life isn't very interesting, but it'd really spice things up if they had a dog try to do it.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 6 points 3 days ago

There's no rule that says a dog can't play ~~basketball~~ a person!

:P

The Air Bud cinematic universe is a lawless hellscape

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 6 points 3 days ago

What's the story, Wishbone?

You spent the first few years of your life, catching tail and sniffing butt, winning through life on loveable personality alone, and becoming a loyal and devoted partner, spending your sunset years curled up on a nice seat, watching the kids do their thing and getting occasional head pats from strangers for a life well lived and job well done.

Danny Devito.

...I'm a woman.

[-] BigLime@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 days ago

I refer to him as Daddy DeVito

... I'm a dude.

Aubrey Plaza. She’s way hotter than me (that’s kinda the point), and not half Japanese (will make the racist parts confusing and/or hilarious) but she could definitely pull off my resting bitch face and general disdain for everything.

[-] viking@infosec.pub 32 points 3 days ago

Ed Sheeran. Specifically because he's not an actor and would stumble through the movie just like I stumbled through life. All ginger, no plan.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 22 points 3 days ago

All Ginger No Plan - that's an amazing life motto. ;)

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 days ago

Sounds like the name of a stand up comedy special.

[-] JWBananas@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Sounds like an orange cat

Gary Oldman, dude's a chameleon. I'm sure he could find a way to play a mid 30s SE Asian dude

[-] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 3 points 3 days ago

On the other hand, if you had Will Ferrel play you, but he and everyone is completely unaware that he is SE asian.

[-] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

I'd take him as a second choice if I couldn't get Gary. To muddy the waters a bit I'd try to get Ken Watanabe and Shohreh Aghdashloo to play my parents.

[-] Hubi@feddit.org 21 points 3 days ago

I'm pretty tall, so the logical choice would be Tom Cruise on 12 inch heels.

[-] 200ok@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

Three Tom Cruises in a trenchcoat

[-] johsny@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

Brad Pitt.

Bit of a downgrade but I can live with it.

[-] MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

I want my movie to be cast entirely with Muppets and Tim Walz.

[-] Enkrod@feddit.org 4 points 3 days ago

Best answer

[-] random_character_a@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Nicolas Cage

Looks nothing like, but it would be funny as hell and in order to get him to sign up, they would have to make it somehow trippy and surreal.

[-] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 days ago

Christopher Walken, Jeff Goldblum, Willem Dafoe, and Gary Oldman. All of them.

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Everywhere, all at once.

David Cross and Bob Odenkirk, with a made-up have surgery scene mid-film to explain the change.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

They're both male so I'm assuming you were very ugly and bald at some point but now not quite as ugly and your hairline is ...un-receding?

Jk

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I'm actually a beautiful woman. They will both have to agree to substantial surgeries before they agree to play me.

For the 5% of my adult life that I’ve had short hair and no beard: Quentin Tarantino. For the rest of my bearded, long-haired adulthood: Steve Burke from Gamers Nexus. But they need to have blue/green eyes and forehead wrinkles.
(Huh. On paper that just sounds like I look like Nick Offerman, but not really.)

[-] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 days ago

John Malkovich, I don't know why. I just like him. And I think he would be kind in my portrayal.

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

In Soviet Russia, John Malkovich being you.

Zac Efron.

The girl I was crushing on in high school crushed on him really hard as he appeared in High School Musical. I spent wayyyy too much of my youth trying to emulate Zac Efron as a result. Eventually, that whole style just kinda became my whole style. Seems like a good fit.

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

Never gonna happen because I'm white and look absolutely nothing like him, but I wouldn't mind having Jam Hsiao play me. Don't know if he's done more than Green Door on Netflix, but I'd still absolutely enjoy it.

Though, if it was animated, I'd want kid me voiced by Cree Summer because she is my all time favorite voice actor/actress.

[-] AnnaFrankfurter@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Some lonely sad miserable and depressed actor

[-] Vampire@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

Nice try FBI

[-] Marin_Rider@aussie.zone 7 points 3 days ago

Karl Pilkington. he would do a great job of complaining about every minor inconvenience I've dealt with

[-] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago

Lady Gaga

I bear no resemblance. I can't sing. I just think she's neat.

I look like a middle-aged Richard Gere, with hair loss. All action on the sides, and nothing on top.

[-] andrewta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Depp , he’s about the only one that could pull it off.

[-] thrawn@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Was hoping to see Margot Robbie in here requesting Margot Robbie play her

Adrien Brody.

I'm told, quite often, I look like him. Plus he's a method actor or whatever do we would get to hang out which might be cool. He seems nice.

[-] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

I’ve been told more than once that I look like “that creepy Scarecrow guy from Batman Begins.” So I guess Cillian Murphy. I didn’t like looking creepy tho.

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 4 points 3 days ago

They meant hot, but didn't dare say it.

People say I look like Carrie Ann Moss (Trinity) but as a child I had more Lucy Lawless resemblances. So I don't know, but either case they'll have to get a tan cause I'm more of a Penelope Cruz skin tone.

[-] ODuffer@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Rowan Atkinson.

Melissa McCarthy, she has a good sense of humor which is great because my life is kind of a joke.

[-] distantsounds@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)
[-] Sequentialsilence@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Jason Mamoa. I look like if he took a break from the gym for a year. He and I also share several hobbies.
