He's a street-walkin' hobbit with a heart full of napalm

I didn’t see this mentioned here yet.

From the Department of Hilarous Miscastings, Elijah Wood is playing Iggy Pop in an upcoming biopic about Mr. Pop, entitled [I]The Passenger.

[/I]I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry. I suppose I could stomach it if it were about post-Stooges Iggy, but I just don’t see fey-ass Woods being convincing as a Stooges-era Iggy Pop.

Sin City

BTW… what’s up with all the talk of “I just can’t see X actor in this role?” If they’re decent actors then they’re able to change who they are. I mean… that’s what an actor does. Good ones, anyways.

But he didn’t have to open his mouth in Sin City.

Actors are limited by their physicality. It’s like casting Christopher Walken as Santa Claus. Even if you gave him a fat suit and a beard, his voice would hilariously destroy the illusion. Yes, I’m aware there are voice actors, but many actors don’t have that range.

Right. Next biopic: Elijah Wood to play Mike Tyson. I mean, he’s an actor, am I right?

Hyperbole, Go!

This is the worst thing that has ever happened to me and all that you people can do is make jokes and argue.

Welcome to the web.

Yeah sorry about that Juno
