Well, evilbeth already took Kate Winslet, so I’ll go with Reese Witherspoon. There’s no physical resemblence, but she’s roughly the same age, and I just love her.
I would have gone with Janeane Garofolo, but someone already got her, too.
I’ll have to start jumping into these threads more quickly.
I always thought if they ever did a movie of my life (egotistical, I know), that John Cusack would be a good choice. But since he’s been mentioned twice already, I’ll go with Ed Norton (with longer hair).
And since I’m relatively new here on SDMB, it would be in a cameo role.
In terms of resemblance, I have no idea. Other than Helena Bonham-Carter, since everyone says I look like her when my hair is curled. (I STILL don’t see it!) As far as personality goes, I’m probably one of those roles they’d try to shoehorn Christina Ricci into.
For me - that guy who plays Newman on Seinfeld. Think him in Jurassic Park. Not for physical resemblance reasons, but just because I know I would be that type of sarcastic bit player in the background.
Well, let’s see: can’t be Angelina Jolie or Parker Posey, 'cause they’re taken already. Hmmm, think I’ll just have to be Claire Danes, because people used to tell me I looked like her, except taller and with large breasts.
I’m told I look like either Keanu Reeves from the Bill & Ted days or Ethan Hawke, depends on whether or not I’m clean shaven or have my goatee grown in.
