    Default Hugh Hefner movie- main acotr?

    I know that a week or so ago there was a buzz about Hugh Hefner- Girls Next Door, tell-all books by exbunnies, etc. Then he officially ok'd a movie based off his life. Now there's a ton of buzz about Leo DiCaprio possibly playing the lead. Do you think Leo would be a good choice, or do you have someone else in mind?

    PS: I KNOW that the sun is not thew most reliable zine, but the movie has been officially ok'd. Now the only question is who will play Hef- and the bunnies? (I volunteer! )

    I don't see any facial similarities so.... no. I'd have to do some browsing to see who WOULD make a good Hugh, though.

    I don't see Leo as Hef...I just don't see any physical traits that they have in common.

    I like Leo He may not look alot like him but he is a good good actor. He would probably play the part really good.

    Leo is just not a man to me. He's still a little boy and always will be. I like him in boyish roles. He's just not that debonaire, distinguied gentlemen type. Just like Sean Connery can't yell, "Woohoo! I'm King of the World!" or play a developmentally disabled rural kid.

    Work what you've got, I say.

    Leo looked nothing like Howard Hughs, either.

    Yes! Leo in "adult" roles is so forced and luke warm to me. But hey, that's just me.

    Leo can play any part he wants to! Maybe I just think that cuz I have a crush on him.

    Cliff Robertson played him before in "Star 80."

    Randall Batinkoff (who??) also played him in a TV movie.

    For this one? Jeremy Davies, maybe?

    Thats tough, Hugh has such a gentlemanly air about him, I can't picture any current actors who could do it justice. They need an early Sean Connery, not a Leo boy.

    I've had a crush on him since he did Romeo + Juliet with Claire Danes. I think he would do an amazing job. He doesn't need to look exactly like Hugh as long as he can portray his style and essence.

    Agreed! He doesn't look like him at all, but he is an outstanding actor. I think he would do a really great job at playing Hef.

    Leo seems to be really selective about his movies. He only does the biggest and best with the most acclaimed directors. I really don't see him taking a part to play Hef.

    And ditto on Leo being a little boy. He wouldn't be right for the part anyways with that baby face.

    I think I'm in the Leo camp. He seems to do well with biopics.

    To me, looks don't have to match up. When the focus is too much on if there is a good facial match, the movie suffers.



    Because there ain't no tits on the radio
