If it had to be made, who would play you in the movie of your life and why? It doesn't matter if any actor named, is currently deceased.

Algren - I'd be curious to see his interpretation.

In what way does he reflect or resemble you?

On second thought, I think Ben Foster would suit well.

Because he's got a good range overall (him catching my attention in Hell or High Water helped) and unlike M. B. Jordan, he's actually got a little more of my look that it could be passable.

Ha. "a little more of my look"....it helps that he's not a black man.

I think Toby Kebbell would be a good fit for Algren.

And Javier Bardem would be a good fit for Lecter.

Post Re: Who would play you in the movie of your life and why?
Hmm, I honestly wouldn't care as long as the material was played right. It's been a while since I've been said I look like anyone really famous. Jim Carrey in Bruce Almighty is probably the last one that I heard (but not 2004, someone recently said that, lot a film buffs where I work, I didn't really see it, more about the hair, and my physical-ness)

Different question? Would you want a Forrest Gump type film? Or a just a part of your life do you think would be interesting enough for a film so far? I can think of a couple of really good films where I'd be a great supporting role, and maybe a few starring (with many creative liberties taken) I'm still too young to look at a life film about myself, let alone who played me. Though I'm not sure I would even want a movie about my life. I'd rather pick from it for interesting parts for a screenplay. Hurricane Irene is the current one I'm working on, and local news response (based on my own.)

Romance about how me and my wife met and grew together, moved to China etc. Just the fact that we are of different nationalities and we had a long-distance relationship/marriage for a few years would be enough for the Nicolas Sparks crowd. Our Story (which would probably be the name of the film) would be good for at least $45m as it is opening on Valentine's Weekend.

I think my high school years would make a great psychological thriller or horror movie.

Post Re: Who would play you in the movie of your life and why?
That sounds nice, and definitely interesting given the current climate. Would you go for more comedy or drama, or make it a mix? Also from what you do say it sounds it at least could have a "happy ending" kind of scene.

Edit, I'm speaking to Algren of course. We all know Zwacks is a horror film

Algren do you think it would play better if your roles were reversed, and you are Chinese and she is an English girl trying to make it in China.? You got two fish out of water stories right there, but because you are male, it works better with a Chinese lead actor, for box-office reasons of course

I'd want to keep it English male, Chinese female just for guidance purposes. I wouldn't know how to give advice to a female playing my role. And it would be romantic drama very much like The Notebook but with a lot less actual drama (more just petty drama, barriers to overcome, and culture differences).
