Who will play Hillary in the movie?
After Hillary wins it all, who should play this remarkable woman in the Hollywood movie?

I'm thinking Madonna, someone bold and brassy like Hillary.

Please spare me the Hillary bashers wit, oh why even ask. They have to spread that wit around I guess.

45. for some reason, I read that as "Morgan Freeman"
Yes, but could Jessica Tandy play Bill?

47. Morgan Freeman as Senator Clinton? Now that would be a bold casting move.
But hell, I'd watch it.

I can't think of any Freeman film that I haven't enjoyed, or felt he did anything less than a great job in.

50. Except he was the shittiest president during an asteroid disaster ever.
I can never forgive Freeman for the millions who died because he was too much of a political coward to evacuate the East Coast in a timely manner. Obviously playing a Republican in that movie.

He was a wonderful President in "Deep Impact".

2. Meryl Streep
For her ability to portray women who are smart, brassy, sometimes abrasive and sometimes vulnerable at the same time.

She has proven to be a phenomenal actress.

I KID, I KID, just a joke.

63. It was really odd to see Travolta do such a fine job. He's usually pretty
lackluster but in this one, as Bill Clinton, he nailed it good.

15. not bad
she does have a resemblance and the right age for old Hillary, but would need someone else for young Hillary like maybe Charlize Theron or something.

16. I dunno about Charliz
But Cybil Shepherd came right to my mind. She did such a good job portraying Martha Stewart in that television movie, I think she would do well playing Hillary.

34. Good picture selection to make your point.
I don't think it would be a very serious movie in Ellen's hands, though. She's way too funny.

Meryl Streep definitely a good choice.

Candace Bergen?
