Ya lost me at Amy Addams as auntie bev lol


apptitude49

Me too, Amy Schumer, maybe.


sixzeerosix

hear me out, catherine o’hara


Icy-Character-7227

Ok YES! Now that would be good casting 👏🏼


bostoncapecod12

Merrill Streep as Bev!


unclepeteusa

Turtleboy should be heavily involved


TruckFudeau22

Yes, but he shouldn’t play himself. You need a really solid actor for this role. Casey Affleck maybe.


bostoncapecod12

Chris Evans as Turtleboy, Casey Affleck should direct and produce no one does Boston movies like him


FashionBusking

Naaaa.... Turtleboy should play himself. PERIOD!


Fit-Doughnut-4096

LOLLL!


Equivalent-Stomach35

Give Peyton Manning his first real role as Turtleboy

Joczef9

These two and Toni Collette were amazing suggestions.


Bianca1174

This is great casting! Everyone but Amy as Bev. I think Amy Schumer as Bev would be perfect


SlipperiestofSlopes

Omg Amy Schumer would be spot on


sammieray21

Melissa Peterson that played Barbara Jean in reba would be a good judge.


apptitude49

She's too pretty to play Aunt Bev, I think.


Jamma7420

Not only is this absolutely perfect, but I'm realizing I NEED Toni Collette to play Julie Albert. That is a guaranteed Oscar nom.


crazykindoflife

RIGHT?!!


spicyprairiedog

This is great 😂 Can Kevin James be one of those inept Canton cops? Maybe Red Solo Cop?


crazykindoflife

Oh absolutely!!!


artichoke424

Yessss but oh Diane Lane's accent was so bad in The Perfect Storm !


mrsphilbertgodphry

Matt Damon as Lally, Ben Affleck as Matt McAbe, Bill Burr as Chris Albert


Idaho-Pearl2T

Bill Burr!!! 🤣🤣 100%


Embarassed_Egg-916

10/10 would watch this movie 🍿


Senior_Apartment_343

The real thing is more fake than a movie


crazykindoflife

Omg thank you haha. I worked so hard on it, I felt kinda silly but also super proud?? 💀


ClubMain6323

Gotta have Mark Walberg, Ben Affleck, Matt Dillon…


crazykindoflife

I purposely did NOT pick them 😂. I’m a Masshole and it’s really annoying to see them all in every damn Mass based movie lol. It’s predictable.


will_this_1_work

Damon not Dillon


ClubMain6323

I think Matt Dillon could play one of the dumb cops. He’s really funny in There’s something about Mary as a PI.


Perfect-Brush9581

Yes!


laujalb

Jeremy Renner as Bukhenik


crazykindoflife

I ALMOST added him for Aiden. I def think he’d be amazing as Bukenik. I couldn’t find an actor with his jawline and he DEF has it.


laujalb

Also Rob as Matt McCabe would be hilarious. He'll need to cultivate mass for that role


Zenflash

It’s the diabitis.


Dizzy-Gur9163

These are great!!!


itaint2009

So good besides Yannetti!! Don't do my man like that lol actually the first time I saw Yannetti, I was reminded of Chris Klein in Sweet Magnolias https://preview.redd.it/8wlbcikz6h5d1.jpeg?width=611&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=646e278f190b8583a3ef45458d6689b250426db1


lbky73

That’s great. And I can see and hear Bateman doing “what if anything” “who if anything” perfectly.


crazykindoflife

Thank you for seeing my vision 😂


hawaii2121

The Proctor photo is perfect


crazykindoflife

😇


ruckusmom

Since you choose Michael Chiklis, I just want to say how the case remind me of "Shield" (best TV show ever) and I want him to be Brian Albert. I'd swap with Louis CK be Chris Albert.


crazykindoflife

I was LITERALLY GONNA DO THAT and didn’t!

will_this_1_work

In this photo I would go with Ben Bailey over Chiklis


RJJR666

Omg Ben Bailey for Yanetti 😲


SlipperiestofSlopes

I vote Andrew Scott as Alan Jackson. He would kill it-he’s such a good actor. Right personality for the part and they def look similar enough..(esp in AJ’s younger years).


schillerstone

So many great picks! I beg of you to try again with Yanetti and find a handsome man 🙏


Europia79

Yanetti is already an Eloquent, Charismatic, Handsome man... ...He could play himself :P


HappyHippoLover

Jennifer Aniston and Chris Pratt


Plenty-Concert5742

The runaway bride is a dead ringer for Jen McCabe https://preview.redd.it/xqxe7ehcqj5d1.jpeg?width=1012&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=18360cf5b161bb31db0a44e11d1a0bf932264709


Lakewater22

Ew it’s the eyes!


crazykindoflife

Oh wow it’s been a long ass time since I thought of her lol


Plenty-Concert5742

Those eyes are nightmare fuel. Lol


CuteFactor8994

SNLs' "Coneheads" playing the part of all the bald-headed characters!


Open_Foot_4417

Anyone from New Kids on the Block that could work for anyone above? Oorrr Mark Walhburg??? They already have the accents down!!


artichoke424

It really is going to be all about the accents. Hand down


No_Struggle_5290

It’s so funny bc I’m from MA and I don’t even hear the accents unless it’s a very exaggerated word haha so I wouldn’t have even thought of that


MrMorningstarX666

Ok ok, so you realize the budget for all these people alone would be like $100M. If they did a movie, the only stars would be Karen read and attorneys maybe, the rest would be less known actors.


crazykindoflife

My husband said this exact same thing. Why are you killing my dreams?!!! Scorsese is directing. We got big money 💰


Infamous_Strain_9428

Nicely done


KP-RNMSN

Holy hell Aiden playing himself!! Love it


Hotterthanyourwife22

Flawless.


Hope-Sky7559

These are great choices! I could also see Shantel VanSanten (from For All Mankind) as Karen also. (Reposting because I accidentally created a second account… whoopsie 🤦‍♀️)


3moon56

OK the mother from 7th heaven should play bev. Under no circumstance should Corey Stoll be casted. He turns every role to crap. Yannetti deserves better than that!


Sleuth-at-Heart62

I disagree. Corey Stoll was great in House of Cards!


lalazoe

This is so good and I love the PowerPoint presentation. Love.


xiabiofushun

Id like John Malkovich as Brian Albert.


crazykindoflife

This is also one I struggled back and forth with!!! But he’s a little older than BA.


truedatornot

I like Jessica Gunning from Baby Reindeer for Julie Nagle.


crazykindoflife

Julie is 19? Or 20? It was hard to find a younger actress with her look. I love Jessica Gunning though!!!


mid-night_gem

Julie is 25…


crazykindoflife

Oh ok! I couldn’t find her exact age online only old hockey photos with her age then.


[deleted]

38


crazykindoflife

Oh holy shit. Learn something new every day!


Knitaholic1519

I’d suggest Enrico Colantoni for Yanetti’s role and David Boreanaz for Jackson. I like Diane Lane over Carrie Mulligan for Karen and I find Amy Addams way too pretty and young to play Auntie Bev’s role, but I don’t have another suggestion right now. Joe Mantegna would be great as BA. Edits: Auntie Bev: Cybill Shepherd, Jayne Atkinson or Cherry Jones / Lally: Kurtwood Smith or Xander Berkeley / Other suggestions for Yanetti: Corbin Bernsen or Colm Feore (which would be my pick) / Higgins: Bruce McGill / Karen Read: Kim Raver


crazykindoflife

I love Enrico for that! Cybill is a great suggestion. Holy shit, Colm is PERFECT! I knew there was an actor I couldn’t place for him!!


Knitaholic1519

Yeah, Colm Feore is one of my favorite male actors (Canadian and bilingual, BTW) and he would be OUTSTANDING as Yanetti.


sharkingdonkey

Dean Norris (Hank Schrader from Breaking Bad) as Brian Albert. Jeremy Strong (Kendall Roy from Succession) as Tristin Morris.


Crixusgannicus

Homelander as Saint John of Bahston...."I'll allow it".


Crixusgannicus

Chris Meloni actually looks like a bigger Yannetti.


Infinite_Buy_2523

Joey Fatone as Brian Higgins


This_Cable_5849

I love how you use Diane Lane but say age may be an issue but then use Amy Addams for Aunt Bev lol. Looks solid tho


crazykindoflife

Okay okay… you’ve got me there. Haha


Street-Dragonfly-677

Aunt Bev = Mom from Family Ties Meredith Baxter Edit: JLo for KR. They kinda give off the same energy: mean.


but_does_she_reddit

Why would Amy Adams be judge Bev!


crazykindoflife

I think about her in her role of Sharp Objects and thought she’d be good. They have the same coloring as well. Again, this is a Hollywoodified version of this cast. But I’d be interested to see who you believe should play her! https://preview.redd.it/zz35lc5o4k5d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a0e6d3034b0e559e420622b4ba3a58858903ee6b


but_does_she_reddit

I just feel like she’s so young but I do see that and she was AWESOME in sharp objects.


HowYaLikeMeow

I really love this! I would pick Catherine O'Hara for Auntie Bev. But then it would be a comedy.


Lakewater22

Fuck yes Tony Goodwin as Alan Jackson.


crazykindoflife

I was particularly proud of that one.


Lakewater22

❤️ I have been in love with him since he was president Fitz in Scandal. He would be PERFECT for the Jackson role


crazykindoflife

Sameeeee!

chipsndip30

diane Lane is 59


Freddy_Farmer1956

Get someone bitchy for Jen McCabe.


Champ-02

I think for Karen, Jennifer Garner would be perfect


Hannah-Tangerine

The teacher from Charlie Brown that goes “Waaa waah wah wah…” when she talks should play Lally. Love Carrie Mulligan as Karen. Two badass babes and Carrie loves rolls with important discussion topics.


AbstractStranger

Jen McCabe and Colin Albert is spot on.

apptitude49

I think Proctor should be played by Tony Hale. (From Veep and Arrested Development)


Bubbly_Rule8154

Please don’t insult Jake G to play this officer!


dirtydrifter82

You're about 20 years off for some of these actors. Amy Adams as Auntie Bev... wtf you thinking?


EqualCamel3356

Susan Misner as Karen, or Emily Blunt


Chatty_Kathy_270

Ok Lenny Clark for something!


Chatty_Kathy_270

Toni Collette as Karen Read


Europia79

Good picks for **John O'Keefe** & **Jen McCabe**, but I really do not like your picks for **David Yanetti** or **Brian Albert**. Also, while I do like **Jason Bateman**, I am not sure he should be the one to play **Lally**. Also, 100% hands down **Rhona Mitra** as **Karen Read** !!! Also, if you can't get **Antony Starr** for **John O'Keefe**, then I recommend **Stephen Amell** or **Aaron Paul** !!! ...Actually, now that i think about it... **Aaron Paul** could be perfect for the role of **John O'Keefe**. Edit: Sorry, if we can't get **Rhona Mitra** as **Karen Read**, then how about **Nina Dobrev** ???


finnballsblue

AJ soprano as John okeefe


crazykindoflife

Oh I can see this!!!


Squitch

Blake Lively as KR


nebulaespiral

I'm sorry for this and I hate to rain on the parade here, but to me this post seems incredibly callous and disrespectful. This isn't a movie, it's not fiction, someone really died here and, from what it appears, another person's life has been ruined by a shit investigation (to say the least). None of this should be entertaining. It's our duty as fellow humans to pay attention and demand justice for the families, seek truth and accountability. How would the families of O'Keefe and Read feel, seeing this post?


crazykindoflife

I promise you I’m not going about this without that thought. There’s many true crime movies and tv shows based on real horrific events. I’m just thinking about the casting of the film that will hopefully portray this story in the best way. I imagine the screenplay will really make John’s story the center of the film. Which is something he really hasn’t had this entire trial.


KeyPrudent6366

When is Read's book "If I did it" coming out?
