Have they cast the Plame movie yet? I mean, Sharon Stone is too obvious

[Bucky]

For Plame and Wilson it ought to be Sharon Stone and William Macy.

The one I can't figure out is, who play him...

But I do have at least one solid candidate...

[tblue]

1. I was thinking the same thing. Sharon Stone, I swear.

[tridim]

2. She should play herself.. She's got movie star looks.

Isn't Sharon Stone a republic?

[Tanuki]

7. Sharon Stone is true blue---she is a proud Democrat and she puts her money where her mouth is

8. Saying someone should play themselves takes all the fun out of these threads

And who cares what Sharon Stone's politics are? She's a dead ringer for Plame.

[tridim]

11. Sorry, didn't mean to be a downer

I haven't been so excited in a loooong time. :woohoo: I guess watching the live story unfold is much more satisfying to me that thinking about actors who might play Plame in the movie.

3. Danny Divito as limbaugh

[Botany]

4. Am I a democrat Rep. Westmoreland?

[Divernan]

9. I swear - some guys would pick Sharon Stone to play Mother Teresa!

Yes, Ms. Stone is very hot; and yes, she's the object of your fantasy - but I don't think Ms. Plame achieved her professional status/job by spreading her legs for a camera, and I'd like to see an actress who has demonstrated her acting talents without the soft porn angle, PLUS some activism on behalf of social and/or political issues cast for the role.
Re: the Basic Instinct scenes:
Several better known actresses of the time such as Geena Davis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Meg Ryan and Julia Roberts turned down the part mostly because of the nudity required. In the movie’s most notorious scene, Tramell is being questioned by the police and she crosses and uncrosses her legs revealing the fact she was not wearing any underwear.

13. Stone was good in Casino and in an HBO movie i saw and that was about it.

[Botany]

19. Lighten up

I was having some fun .... end of story.

BTW I thought Basic Instinct sucked.

5. Maybe Geena Davis as Ms Plame!!

[DURHAM D]

6. Joe Wilson should be played by Clooney.

I agree with Sharon Stone as Valerie. Robert Novak should be played by a padded Billy Bob Thornton. George Tenet should be played by George Tenet - maybe we can finally get some info from him.

[Tanuki]

10. Sienna Miller could also play Valerie

[Beaverhausen]

12. Michael Douglas would be great as Joe Wilson

How about Hillary Swank for Valerie Plame?

[Sydnie]

15. Michelle Pfieffer or Annette Benning

those would be my choices for her.

[Greeby]

14. Jeri Ryan, maybe? If you listen to Valerie's voice without seeing her

And then listened to Ryan in her non-Star Trek roles, sounds like a dead ringer

[Babel_17]

17. Agreed , an attractive blond who was betrayed

and abused by a powerful republican member of government? Good choice. :) Getting her the role would resurrect that sordid tale.

And she's of the right age and currently cast in the role of a highly intelligent woman.

[youthere]

16. Wendy Malik.

[Bucky]

18. ...as Judy Miller?

Those villain roles are much juicier, I think.
