It has been announced that Nathan Lane will portray The Great One. I hope they get Christopher Lloyd to play Art Carney.
Really? At 63, I’d have to say Christopher Lloyd’s a little long in the tooth to play Art Carney during his heyday (he was 37 when The Honeymooners began airing).
Sure, he’s getting old but he definately has the ability to portray both Carney and Carney as Norton.
How about Ryan Stiles? He’s tall and loose-limbed enough, although I have no idea whether he could play the serious parts.
If you think casting Art Carney will be tough, try coming up with Audrey Meadows – a smart, attractive redhead who can play funny and dowdy.
